New Technology 2014 L01 Introduction
The document discusses the fall of Nokia's mobile dominance and its partnership with Microsoft. It notes that in the 2000s, Nokia had over 35% of the global mobile market and over 73% of the smartphone market, but that its market share declined rapidly after 2007. In 2011, Nokia's CEO acknowledged in a memo that the company was "standing on a burning platform" and not innovating fast enough. Shortly after, Nokia announced a partnership with Microsoft to use its Windows platform instead of Nokia's own Symbian software. In 2013, Microsoft fully acquired Nokia's mobile business for $7.2 billion.

Crossing The Chasm: What's New For VR 2017
The document summarizes key developments in virtual reality (VR) in 2017 and makes predictions. Some of the main points covered are:
- VR adoption is accelerating but is still in the early innings, with high-end systems seeing slow adoption due to lack of killer apps and issues like low resolution.
- 360 video and mobile VR are areas that will see significant growth in 2017. New products will lower costs and improve ease of use.
- Major new announcements from companies like Microsoft, Apple, Google, and Magic Leap could reorder the VR/AR landscape.
- 2017 may be a breakout year for augmented reality as it addresses limitations of VR like being less restrictive to wear.

Taking advantage of the growth in mobile gaming
There is a huge cultural shift taking place. For the last 10 years, since 2000 we have experienced how everything is getting digital. The mobile phone is today just as powerful as a desktop computer in 2000. We have all this power in our pocket.
This presentation was given at the Gambling Technology Strategies 2011 in London.
Evolution of Game Development
This document summarizes the evolution of game development from the 1960s-1970s to present day. It outlines how in the early days, game scope was limited, costs were high, platforms were few, and the market was niche. Over time, development budgets and team sizes soared, numerous platforms emerged, and financial models changed. However, some things stayed the same - a bad game remains unpopular, simple designs are still effective, small studios can still succeed, and hardcore fans endure. The business now rivals the movie industry in financial terms.

Nýsköpun - Leiðin til framfara
Fyrirlestur fyrir Félag tölvunarfræðinga og Verkfræðingafélagið þann 18.05.2022
Nýsköpun er forsenda tækniframfara sem eru forsendur framþróunar. Nýsköpun byrjar yfirleitt smátt og þarf margar ítranir til að virka. Frumkvöðlar sem eru að búa til nýjungar þurfa ekki einungis að glíma við tæknina og takmarkanir hennar, heldur einnig skoðanir og álit samtímamanna sem sjá ekki alltaf tilgang með nýrri tækni. Í þessum fyrirlestri skoðar Ólafur Andri nýsköpun og þær framfarir sem hafa orðið. Einnig skoðar hann hvert tækniframfarir nútímans muni leiða okkur á komandi árum.
Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson er aðjúnkt við Háskólann í Reykjavík og kennir þar námskeið um tækniþróun og hvernig tæknibreytingar hafa áhrif á fyrirtæki. Hann er tölvunarfræðingur (Msc) að mennt frá Oregon University í Bandaríkjanum. Ólafur Andri er frumkvöðull og stofnaði, ásamt fleirum, Margmiðlun og síðar Betware. Þá tók Ólafur Andri þátt í að stofna leikjafyrirtækið Raw Fury AB í Stokkhólmi.
Nýjast tækni og framtíðin
Fyrirlestur haldinn fyrir tæknifaghóp Stjórnvísi þann 13. október 2020.
Undanfarna áratugi höfum við séð gríðalegar framfarir í tækni og nýsköpun á heimsvísu. Þessar framfarir hafa skapað mannkyninu öllu aukna hagsæld. Þrátt fyrir veirufaraldur á heimsvísu eru framfarir ekkert að minnka heldur munu bara aukast næstu árum. Gervgreind, róbotar, sýndarveruleiki, hlutanetið og margt fleira er að búa til nýjar lausnir og ný tækifæri. Framtíðin er í senn sveipuð dulúð og getur verið spennandi og ógnvekjandi í senn. Eina sem við vitum fyrir vissu er að framtíðin verður alltaf betri. Í þessu fyrirlestri ætlar Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson kennari við HR að fjalla um nýjustu tækni og framtíðina.

New Technology Summer 2020 Course Introduction
Slides on the New Technology Summer 2020 Course. Contains information about the content and requirements.
L01 Introduction
Technology is one of the factors of change. When new disruptive technology is introduced, it can change industries. We have many examples of that and will start this journey it one of the most important innovation that has come in our lifetimes, the smartphone. We will explore the impact of the smartphone and the fate of existing companies at the time when iPhone, the first smartphone as we know them, was introduced to the world.
We will also look at other examples from history. Then we look at the broader picture, past industrial revolutions and the one that we are experiencing now, the fourth industrial revolution. Specifically we look briefly at the technologies that fuel this revolution, for example artificial intelligence, robotics, drones, internet of things and more.
L23 Robotics and Drones
This document summarizes a lecture on robotics and drones. It discusses the history of robots dating back to ancient times. It also covers modern industrial robots, robotic developments in the 21st century including robots that can see, hear and sense. The document outlines Isaac Asimov's three laws of robotics. It discusses self-driving cars and their levels of automation. Finally, it covers unmanned aerial vehicles including military drones and delivery drones, and concludes that the robot revolution has only just begun.
L22 Augmented and Virtual Reality
The normal interaction with computers is with keyboard and a mouse. For display a rectangular somewhat small screen is used with 2D windowing systems. The mouse was invented more the 40 years ago and has been for 20 years dominant input. Now we are seeing new types of input devices. Multi-touch adds new dimensions and new applications. Natural user interfaces or gesture interfaces where people point to drag objects. Computers are also beginning to recognize facial expressions of people, so it knows if you are smiling. Voice and natural language understanding is getting to a usable stage. All this calls all types of new applications.
Displays are getting bigger. What if any surface was a screen? If you could spray the wall with screen? Or have you phone project images to the wall.
This lectures explores some of these new types of interactions with computers and software. It makes the old mouse look old.
L20 Personalised World
Local is the Lo in SoLoMo, the buzz word. Local is not only about location, it's also about your digital track record. Over 70% of Netflix users watch the films recommend. Mining data to understand people's behaviour is getting to be a huge and valuable business. Advertisers see opportunities in getting direct to their target groups. Predictive intelligence is also about where you will be at some time in the future, and where somebody you know will be.
It turns out that Facebook and Google know you better than you think you know yourself. The world is about to get really scary.
L19 Network Platforms
Over two billion people signed up for Facebook. This site the most used site for people when using the Internet. People are not watching TV so much anymore - they using Facebook, Youtube and Netflix and number of popular web sites.
Some people denote their time working for others online. What drives people to write an article on Wikipedia? They don´t get paid. Companies are enlisting people to help with innovations and sites such as Galaxy Zoo ask people to help identifying images. And why do people have to film themselves singing when they cannot sing and post the video on Youtube?
In this lecture we talk about how people are using the web to interact in new ways, and doing stuff.
L18 Big Data and Analytics
With the computer revolution vast amount of digital data has become available. With the Internet and smart connected product, the data is growing exponentially. It is estimated that every year, more data is generated than all history prior. And this has repeated over several years.
With all this data, it becomes a platform for something new of its own. In this lecture, we look at what big data is and look at several examples of how to use data. There are many well-know algorithms to analyse data, like clustering and machine learning.
L17 Algorithms and AI
After the computing industry got started, a new problem quickly emerged. How do you operate this machines and how to you program them. The development of operating systems was relatively slow compared to the advances in hardware. First system were primitive but slowly got better as demand for computing power increased. The ideas of the Graphical User Interfaces or GUI (Gooey) go back to Doug Engelbarts Demo of the Century. However, this did not have much impact on the computer industry. One company though, Xerox, a photocopy company explored these ideas with Palo Alto Park. Steve Jobs of Apple and Bill Gates of Microsoft took notice and Apple introduced first Apple Lisa and the Macintosh.
In this lecture on we look so lessons for the development of software, and see how our business theories apply.
In this lecture on we look so lessons for the development of algorithms or software, and see how our business theories apply.
In the second part we look at where software is going, namely Artificial Intelligence. Resent developments in AI are causing an AI boom and new AI application are coming all the time. We look at machine learning and deep learning to get an understanding of the current trends.
L16 Internet of Things
We are currently living in times of great transformation. We have over the last couple of decade seen the Internet become the most powerful disrupting force in the world, connecting everyone and transforming businesses. Now everyday objects - things we use are getting smart with sensors and software. And they are connecting. What does this mean?
We will see the world become alive. Cars will talk to road sensors that talk to systems that guide traffic. Plants will talk to weather systems that talk to scientists that research climate change. Farming fields will talk to the farming system that talks to robots that do fertilising and harvesting. Home appliances like refrigerators, ovens, coffee machines and microwaves ovens will talk to the home food and cooking system that will inform the store that you are running out butter, cheese, laundry detergent and coffee beans, which will inform the robot driver to get this to your house after consulting your calendar upon when someone is at home.
In this lecture we explore the Internet of Things, IoT.
L14 From the Internet to Blockchain
The Internet grew out of US efforts to build the ARPANET, a network of peer computers built during the cold war. The two major players were military and academia. The network was simple and required no efforts for security or social responsibility. The early Internet community was mainly highly educated and respectable scientist. In the early 1990s the World Wide Web, a hypertext system is introduced, and soon browsers start to appear, leading the commercialization of Net. New businesses emerge and a technology boom known as the dot-com era.
The network, now over 40, is being stretched. Problems such as spam, viruses, antisocial behaviour, and demands for more content are prompting reinvention of the Net and threatening its neutrality. Add to this government efforts to regulate and limit the network.
In this lecture we look at the Internet and the impact of the network. We will also look at the future of the Internet.

In this lecture we look at the Internet and the impact of the network. We will also look at the future of the Internet.
L14 The Mobile Revolution
- Mobile phones are now the most common device in the world, with over 8.5 billion connections globally as of 2017.
- The development of mobile phones was enabled by earlier innovations in electromagnetism and radio in the late 19th century, but mobile phones did not become practical until the 1980s with the invention of the microchip.
- Mobile technology has advanced through generations from analog 1G networks in the 1980s, to digital 2G networks in the 1990s incorporating texting, and 3G packet switched networks in the 2000s enabling more data and applications.
New Technology 2019 L13 Rise of the Machine
Did you know that the term "Computer" once meant a profession? And what did people or computers actually do? They computed mathematical problems. Some problems were tedious and error prone. And it is not surprising that people started to develop machines to aid in the effort. The first mechanical computers were actually created to get rid of errors in human computation. Then came tabulating machines and cash registers. It was not until telephone companies were well established that computing machines became practical.
First computers were huge mainframes, but soon minicomputers like DEC’s PDP started to appear. The transistor was introduced in 1947, but its usefulness was not truly realized until in 1958 when the integrated circuit was invented. This led to the invention of the microprocessor. Intel, in 1971, marketed the 4004 – and the personal computer revolution started. One of the first Personal Computers was MITS’ Altair. This was a simple device and soon others saw the opportunities.
In this lecture we start our coverage of computing and look at some of the early machines and the impact they had.
L12 digital transformation
Software is changing the way traditional business operate. People now have smartphones in their pockets - a supercomputer that is 25,000 times more powerful and the minicomputers of the 1960s. This is changing people's behaviour and how people shop and use services. The organisational structure created in the 20th century cannot survive when new digital solution are being offered. Software is changing the way traditional business operate. People now have smartphones in their pockets - a supercomputer that is 25,000 times more powerful and the minicomputers of the 1960s. This is changing people's behaviour and how people shop and use services. The organisational structure created in the 20th century cannot survive when new digital solution are being offered. The hierarchical structure of these established companies assumes high coordination cost due to human activity. But when the coordination cost drops
The organisational structure that companies in the 20th century established was based on the fact that employees needed to do all the work. The coordination cost was high due to the effort and cost of employees, housing etc. Now we have software that can do this for use and the coordination cost drops to close-to-zero. Another thing is that things become free. Consider Flickr. Anybody can sign up and use the service for free. Only a fraction of the users get pro account and pay. How can Flickr make money on that? It turns out that services like this can.
Many businesses make money by giving things away. How can that possibly work? The music business has suffered severely with digital distribution of content. Should musicians put all their songs on YouTube? What is the future business model for music?
L10 The Innovator's Dilemma
One of the great irony of successful companies is how easily they can fail. New companies are founded to take advantage of some new technology. They become highly successful and but when the technology shifts, something new comes along, they are unable to adapt and fail. This is the innovator’s dilemma.
Then there are companies that manage to survive. For example, Kodak survived two platform shift, only til fail the third. IBM has survived over 100 years. What do successful companies do differently?
L09 Disruptive Technology
History has many examples of great innovators who had difficult time convincing their contemporaries of new technology. Even incumbent and powerful companies regarded new technologies as inferior and dismissed it as "toys". Then when disruptive technologies take off they often are overhyped and can cause bubbles like the Internet bubble of the late 1990s.
In this lecture we look at some examples of disruptive technologies and the impact they had. We look at the The Disruptive Innovation Theory by Harvard Professor Clayton Christensen.
L09 Technological Revolutions
Technology evolves in big waves that we call revolutions. The first revolution was the Industrial revolution that started in Britain in 1771. Since than we have see more revolutions come and how we are in the fifth. These revolutions follow a similar path. First there is an installation period where the new technologies are installed and deployed, creating wealth to those who were are the right place at the right time. This is followed by a frenzy, where financial markets wants to be apart. The there is crash and turning point, followed by synergy, a golden age.
In 1908, a new technological revolution started. It was the Age of Oil and Automobile. The technology trigger was Henry Ford´s new assembly line technique that allowed the manufacturing of standardized, low cost automobile. This created the car industry and other manufacturing companies. This also created demand for gas thus creating the oil industry. During the Roaring Twenties the stock prices rose to new levels, until a crash and the Great Depression. Only after World War II, came a turnaround point followed by a golden age in the post-war boom.
In this lecture we look at a framework for understanding technological revolutions. There revolutions completely change societies and replace the old with new technologies. We will explore how these revolutions take place. We should now be in the golden age phase.
We also look at generations.
L07 Becoming Invisible
In the early days of product development, the technology is inferior and lacking in performance. The focus is very much on the technology itself. The users are enthusiast who like the idea of the product, find use for it, and except the lack of performance. Then as the product becomes more mature, other factors become important, such as price, design, features, portability. The product moves from being a technology to become a consumer item, and even a community.
In this lecture we explore the change from technology focus to consumer focus, and look at why people stand in line overnight to buy the latest gadgets.
L06 Diffusion of Innovation
This document summarizes a lecture about the diffusion of innovation. It discusses how new ideas are developed through collaboration and exchange. It also discusses how innovations diffuse slowly at first, gaining momentum over time as they are adopted by pragmatists and conservatives seeking convenient solutions. The rate of adoption follows an S-curve, with innovators and enthusiasts driving early adoption and the mass market adopting later. Customers' motivations for adoption change over time, initially valuing the innovation's benefits and later valuing its functionality. Factors like network effects, convenience, and compatibility influence adoption rates.

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
