EU-Twinning Project in Turkey - “Capacity Building Concerning Presentation and Usage of the General Government Financial Statistics” - Seminar in Ankara - 29 September 2017
Dedicated roads for autonomous vehicles Jeffrey Funk
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze how autonomous vehicles are becoming economic feasible. They are becoming economically feasible because the cost of lasers, ICs, MEMS, and other electronic components are falling at 25 to 40% per year. If the cost of autonomous vehicles fall 25% a year, the cost of the electronics associated with autonomous vehicles will fall 90% in 10 years. Dedicating roads to autonomous vehicles is necessary to achieve the most benefits from autonomous vehicles. While using autonomous vehicles in combination with conventional vehicles can free drivers for other activities, dedicating roads to autonomous vehicles can dramatically reduce congestion, increase speeds, and thus increase the number of cars per area of the road. They can also reduce accidents, insurance, and the number of traffic police. These slide discuss a number of technologies that can be used for the dedicated roads including wireless communication, magnetic stripes and RFIDs that together can coordinate vehicles on roads. The slides end by summarizing efforts in Singapore.

A flagship CTO event, this has grown into a platform for knowledge-sharing among peer groups steering ICT projects in e-delivery of health care, education and governance. This Forum echoes the Commonwealth's 2013 theme: The Road Ahead for Africa.
In a world where many of our digital spaces are becoming more closed than ever, open data is a concept that is rapidly on the rise.
In this talk we explore what open data is (and what it isn't), and why we should care about it. We'll look at how you can introduce it into your projects with regards to practical publication and consumption, and discuss some useful tools and reference points.
Open data isn't just dry and technical - it gives us great scope to be creative, and throughout this talk we'll go through some of the amazing things that it has been used for globally in the hope that it will inspire you to create something amazing yourself.

Mobilise Your Data
According to Ofcom, 23% of the UK’s mobile phone users now use their handsets to access the Internet. Many users now access web content exclusively on their mobile devices, e.g. from their iPhone, iPad, Windows Smartphone or Blackberry device.
With 96% of the UK population owning a mobile phone, SMS text is an increasingly popular communication mechanism and one that the NFP sector should embrace. Why? Costs are low, campaigns can be setup quickly and with two way text message donations can be sent quickly and efficiently.
Your presenter, Steve Cast, Founder and MD of Redbourn Business Systems, will present practical tips on how to integrate your database with the mobile world, using client case studies as examples.

“Our vision is for an open government. For the government and community to be able to leverage a government platform with social media tools, developing a community instinct. This would then enable both government and community to have an inherent inclination toward the same behaviour / goal.”
Big Data Grapes, as part of the European Big Data Value community was on the 16th of May in Sofia, Bulgaria, in an event organised by the Big Data Value PPP, with the twofold objective of strengthening collaborations among community members and increasing the visibility and awareness about the PPP in East Europe in general and Bulgaria in particular. Ontotext, our Bulgarian project partner presented the potential of Big Data Streams in grape and wine production.

Material presented to a session of the Mathematical Sciences Colloquium series at University of Montana - Missoula on 7 December 2015: opportunities, challenges, enabling technologies, practices and impacts of "big data" strategies
Data Collaboration and Stewardship for the Blue EconomyStefaan Verhulst
The presentation covers: Introduction to data collaboratives, a new form of collaboration, beyond the public-private partnership model, in which participants from different sectors exchange their data to create public value.
Focus on 3 types of data collaboratives that areparticularly relevant to the audience of ocean data professionals: Trusted Intermediaries; Data Pools; and Research and Analysis Partnerships.
Goverannce of Data Collaboratives leveraging the “Four Ps”:
Purpose: What is the purpose/mission of the data collaborative beyond providing access to data? Purpose can be organizational, relating to the functions of a larger institution, or an issue of data access, relating to the reasons for data access.
Principles: What norms and attitudes will inform decisions and data handling? Like Purpose, principles can be organizational, relating to how an institution governs itself and its projects, or a matter of data access, relating to how an institution governs its data.
Processes: What kinds of design-making processes are needed to ensure an organization can act on its principles to meet the purpose?
Practices: What is needed to operationalize the principles?

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
