Future value of data Final report - Draft summary lr 15 dec 2018Future Agenda
Throughout 2018 a series of 30 workshops were undertaken around the world exploring the key topic of the future value of data. Engaging with around 1000 experts in 25 countries, this major research project has looked at the key issues driving change for how we see data value and their implications for the next ten years - globally and locally.
This is the draft PPT summary of the research findings and will be followed up in the New Year with a detailed Future Agenda global synthesis report plus regional versions in multiple languages.

When cities begin to think - What happens when buildings talk back?Bruce Duyshart
Presentation for UDIA National Congress 2014.
Imagine a world where the emerging 'Internet of Things' intersects with smart buildings and cities. Today, developers are faced with the rising expectations of people to be better connected and more efficient in their use of technology, yet buildings still remain one of the last bastions for technological change in our modern society. This insightful presentation will shine a torch on a world of possibilities in the use of technology in property and will highlight what lies ahead for those that are prepared to innovate and make a change.

this is the presentation about the artificial intelligence . this will help people to understand about the artificial intelligence . this is developed for students to learn something about the artificial intelligence.the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages.
This work introduces “quantum intelligence” as a concept of intelligence for operating in the quantum realm may help in a potential AI-Quantum Computing convergence (~2030e), and towards the realization of SRAI for well-being (economics, health, energy, space). “Scale-free intelligence” is formulated as a generic capacity for learning.
AI did not spring onto the scene with chatGPT, but is in an ongoing multi-year adoption. A transition may be underway from an information society to a knowledge society (one tempered and specifically using knowledge to improve the human condition). AI is a dual-use technology with both significant risk and upleveling possibilities.
SRAI for well-being is a social objective, and also a technological objective. SRAI is part of AI development and within the technological trajectory of harnessing all scales of physical reality ranging from quantum materials to space exploration.
Conceptually, thinking in quantum and relativistic terms expands the physical worldview, and likewise the social worldview of entities inhabiting the larger world. Practically, SRAI may be realized in phases: short-term regulation and registries, medium-term agents learning to implement human values with internal reward functions, and long-term responsible human-AI entities acting in partnership in a future of SRAI for well-being.

The future of hyperconnected buildings - Illumni 2014Bruce Duyshart
Presented as part of the Illumni Future of Lighting Summit 2014 (http://futureof.lighting) in collaboration with the Sydney Vivid Festival of Light, Music and Ideas. (http://www.vividsydney.com).
Presentation Synopsis
Today we are living in a hyper-connected data driven world. The phenomenal global rise of mobile and wearable computing is raising the bar of digital literacy and has awakened people's awareness and expectations of what can be achieved with technology. But how will this expectation match the reality of what is evolving in the built form environments we live and work in?
This insightful presentation examines the status of technological progress that is occurring outside of the property industry.
It then explores the concept of smart buildings that are now beginning to sense, adapt and respond to our functional, environmental and personal needs.
To conclude, a number of smart lighting concepts are illustrated that illustrates how light and technology can be combined in ways that adds intelligence and provides better user experiences to a range of environments.
According to our recently published Game Changers 2020 report, we look at unique tech categories like speed-of-light chips, mind-altering medicines, and quantum cryptography.
You can read the full report, which highlights the following:
• 200 unique investors backed this year's game changers
• 20 investors backed multiple game changers
• 23 game changer companies are based in the U.S
A World Without Cookies by Jochen SchlosserPerformanceIN
Biometrics might be the emperor’s new clothes for smartphone manufacturers, yet it is fingerprinting of an altogether different variety that has marketer’s salivating at the prospect of a cookieless web.
Using information from a mobile device means it is now possible to track a consumer without storing information locally, before doing away with cookies entirely. However, as with any technological innovation there are pros and cons to consider.
Dr. Jochen Schlosser will share discoveries he has made. What advantages are there, why this new ID should not be called fingerprinting and what aspects need to improve before it becomes the de facto standard?

Ústavní soud zamítl stížnost společnosti T-Mobile Česká Republika a. s.: Mobilní operátor má při předčasném ukončení účastnické smlouvy nárok pouze na 20 % z částky zbývajících měsíčních paušálů
As Europe's leading economic powerhouse and the fourth-largest hashtag#economy globally, Germany stands at the forefront of innovation and industrial might. Renowned for its precision engineering and high-tech sectors, Germany's economic structure is heavily supported by a robust service industry, accounting for approximately 68% of its GDP. This economic clout and strategic geopolitical stance position Germany as a focal point in the global cyber threat landscape.
In the face of escalating global tensions, particularly those emanating from geopolitical disputes with nations like hashtag#Russia and hashtag#China, hashtag#Germany has witnessed a significant uptick in targeted cyber operations. Our analysis indicates a marked increase in hashtag#cyberattack sophistication aimed at critical infrastructure and key industrial sectors. These attacks range from ransomware campaigns to hashtag#AdvancedPersistentThreats (hashtag#APTs), threatening national security and business integrity.
🔑 Key findings include:
🔍 Increased frequency and complexity of cyber threats.
🔍 Escalation of state-sponsored and criminally motivated cyber operations.
🔍 Active dark web exchanges of malicious tools and tactics.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
