FRAND (Fair, Reasonable, and Non-Discriminatory terms) can benefit receiving companies through commercially applicable standards and reduced concerns about open source endeavors. However, FRAND may be less successful for granting companies and market innovation. For standards development organizations, clearly defining FRAND terms with reciprocal impact is important, but such definitions risk overwhelming commercial organizations. While FRAND aims to regulate standards for long-term stability, it must also gain commercial acceptance to be effective.

Social Media SEO for Business
This document discusses how to build an online presence through social media and search engine optimization. It provides tips on creating profiles on websites like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Google to share information and help others find your expertise. RSS feeds and social bookmarking tools like Delicious and Diigo are recommended for gathering and organizing information from blogs, news, and research. New businesses are advised to engage interactively with customers and fans through social media rather than restrict access to content.
Fuel Certificate Program
This document proposes using free gas certificates as a marketing promotion to attract and retain customers during times of high gas prices. It suggests businesses offer certificates valued between $100-$500 to customers for visiting, making appointments, or making purchases. Customers would redeem the certificates by buying $100 or more of gas per month and submitting receipts to receive a gas card worth $25 per month until the certificate is depleted. The promotion benefits businesses by increasing customer loyalty, sales, and profit margins without significant advertising costs, while providing customers relief from high gas prices.

NOTE: the title slides appears several times because it's a navigation slide -- allows you to hyperlink to any show in the medley at any time. Enjoy!

Traditionally, Banks have feared Cloud, partly due to regulatory reasons, partly due to data security and other reasons. However, as some pioneering banks around the world have shown, there is a way. And as are increasingly discovering, Cloud will not be an option, but an imperative for Banks.
What's driving this? For starters, the changing systems of engagement with customers. Yes, as banking customers, particularly, retail banking customers, start demanding that their banks are available to them 24x7, across a multitude of channels, "on demand" - banks are driven to engage using new channels: mobile, social media. This introduction to the API-engagement models is driving entirely new workloads for the Banks' infrastructure. Cloud is the only way they can cope with this new engagement model.
In this short 5-minute deck, I present 5 reasons why Banks need cloud today.

A major challenge in social is deciding the right approach to globalising or localising content and conversations. Should brands control social media globally for easier management and brand consistency? Or work on a local level that can be more costly but allows responses to be tailored to local needs and therefore lead to better engagement?
Hosted by Gemma Trippas, Oracle’s Social Partnerships Manager and Jeremie Moritz, Social Media Manager at Pernod Ricard, this session will look at what brands can do to adopt the right balance for their social media efforts internationally, drawing on Pernod Ricard’s vast experience in managing many sub-brands across multiple territories.

Focus on the terms and conditions, not just the price.
Learning to negotiate is crucial.
Impact and Result
Look at your contract holistically to find cost savings.

Short Data Rules for Observability.pdf
This document discusses the importance of complete, high-resolution data for effective observability. It argues that sampling and aggregation can degrade data accuracy and precision, making it harder to detect issues, troubleshoot problems, and understand system behavior. Having full fidelity metrics, traces, and logs at a fine-grained level is necessary to gain useful insights from observability data. Timestamp alignment and network latency also impact how precisely events can be ordered and correlated. Overall, the key to effective observability is having data that is fully representative of the application and infrastructure it comes from.
Murphys laws for Observability
We’re all familiar with Murphy’s Law. “Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.” And over time, Murphy’s Law has been extended, abstracted and applied to numerous disciplines.
Within Observability, the extension of data and monitoring focused on deep insights in our complex apps and environments, Murphy’s Law also reigns supreme. But what laws apply and how do we mitigate impact of points like:
- Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong, at the worst possible time.
- Computers always side with the hidden flaw
- You can never run out of things that can go wrong
- Availability is a function of time
Final observability starts_with_data
The document discusses two immutable rules for observability:
1. Observability solutions should use all available data to avoid blind spots and issues with sampling data.
2. Observability solutions should operate at the speed and resolution of the applications and infrastructure being monitored to avoid losing precision or missing ephemeral events.
It notes challenges with cloud infrastructure like microservices creating complex interactions, and failures not repeating exactly. Observability is presented as a solution to aid in detecting, investigating, and resolving unknown issues.
Seeing RED: Monitoring and Observability in the Age of Microservices

Rootstech-The Basics of Gamification
The document discusses the basics of gamification, including its history and goals. Gamification uses game mechanics and dynamics to engage users and solve problems. It aims to increase participation, engagement, and loyalty through intrinsic and extrinsic motivations. Key aspects of gamification design include understanding user and business goals, implementing rewards and feedback loops, and adapting to platforms and locations.
Ostt eu-what about open-v2.5
The document discusses the evolving meaning of the term "open" in technology. It traces the term from its origins in "free software" to the introduction of "open source" in 1998. Today, open has taken on many related meanings around concepts like open source software, open standards, open APIs, and open communities. However, the document notes there remains confusion around what open means due to its varied usages. It questions whether providing greater clarity around what open means could help with positioning, measuring openness, and incentivizing more open practices.
Open life in the cloud
The document discusses the cloud and its three levels: infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, and software as a service. While not entirely new, the cloud is powered by massive interconnectivity and new devices. It notes that cloud infrastructure relies on open standards, specifications, and APIs, but that client access can be limited by device types and connections. The cloud allows for elastic computing, online storage, collaboration and subscription-based apps and revenue models. However, challenges revolve around data privacy, accessibility, security and ownership across global jurisdictions. It welcomes international standards but notes they could stifle innovation.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
