This presentation was created by my son who is 12 years old as his business project for school. I find it fascinating how he and his friends have managed to capture all of the big buzzwords that we hear all the time and incorporate them into a beautifully simple presentation. I wish some of the presentations that I see at work could be this simple and straightforward.

The article discusses Intel abandoning its "tick-tock" model of alternating new process nodes and architectures. It notes Intel will now focus on lengthening the time it uses 14nm and 10nm nodes, optimizing products for each node through architectural improvements rather than major new architectures. This signals an end to the predictable cadence Intel followed for a decade. The article also discusses how other chip makers like AMD, ARM and Nvidia improved performance and efficiency through architectural changes on the same nodes.
Deloitte: Technology, Media & Telecommunications Predictions - 2013
While tablet and smartphone sales are growing rapidly, the PC is not dead. In 2013:
- More than 80% of internet traffic will come from PCs, not mobile devices, due to PCs' larger screens and capabilities.
- People will spend over 70% of their total computing time on PCs, not mobile devices, with work accounting for a large portion of PC usage time.
- Even for non-work usage, people are expected to use PCs for over 50% of their computing time due to PCs' preference for larger screens and capabilities beyond consumption.
- We are moving to an era of "PC Plus" where PCs remain the primary device, used in conjunction
Deloitte technology predictions2013_final
The PC is not dead and will continue to be the primary computing device for most people in 2013. While tablet and smartphone sales are growing rapidly, PC sales have remained strong with over 1.6 billion PCs expected to be in use in 2013. PCs have advantages over mobile devices like larger screens and full keyboards that make tasks like content creation and spreadsheet/document work much easier. Most internet traffic, estimated to be over 80%, will continue to come from PCs despite rising mobile traffic. People also spend more time on PCs, especially for work, than on smartphones and tablets. The PC remains well-suited as a primary computing device.

Multi-vendor integration and interoprability to be critical success factor in bringing internet of things services to market - A conversation with Danny Lousberg, Director of Product Management, Technicolor
Much of the focus in assessing the growth of the Internet of Things has stemmed from the automatic connectivity and interaction among devices without human intervention. At some point, however, the objective of IoT is to make the lives of people better. As the relationship between IoT and the human experience is explored to develop customer facing applications, it will be important to ensure seamless integration across devices. In 2012, Technicolor saw the need to interconnect all IoT devices and applications, regardless of brand or manufacturer. This led to the development of Qeo, a communications framework built on Linux design, which made its public debut in 2013. Since then, Technicolor has joined an industry consortium, AllSeen Alliance, and is contributing the work it’s done with Qeo.
In this Q&A, Technicolor Director of Product Management Danny Lousberg shares his insights on the challenges related to IoT, how Qeo can help to overcome those challenges, and the work Technicolor is doing with AllSeen Alliance.

As long as there’s innovation there is going to be new kinds of ch.docx
As long as there’s innovation there is going to be new kinds of chaos,” explains Robert Stephens, founder of the technology support company Geek Squad. The chaos Stephens is referring to is the difficulty we have all experienced trying to keep up with the many changes in our environment, particularly those related to computers, technology, software, communication, and entertainment. Generally, consumers have found it difficult to install, operate, and use many of the electronic products available today. “It takes time to read the manuals,” Stephens says. “I’m going to save you that time because I stay home on Saturday nights and read them for you!”
THE COMPANY
The Geek Squad story begins when Stephens, a native of Chicago, passed up an Art Institute scholarship to pursue a degree in computer science. While Stephens was a computer science student he took a job fixing computers for a research laboratory, and he also started consulting. He could repair televisions, computers, and a variety of other items, although he decided to focus on computers. His experiences as a consultant led him to realize that most people needed help with technology and that they saw value in a service whose employees would show up at a specified time, be friendly, use understandable language, and solve the problem. So, with just $200, Stephens formed Geek Squad in 1994.
Geek Squad set out to provide timely and effective help with all computing needs regardless of the make, model, or place of purchase. Geek Squad employees were called “agents” and wore uniforms consisting of black pants or skirts, black shoes, white shirts, black clip-on ties, a badge, and a black jacket with a Geek Squad logo to create a “humble” attitude that was not threatening to customers. Agents drove black-and-white Volkswagen Beetles, or Geekmobiles, with a logo on the door, and charged fixed prices for services, regardless of how much time was required to provide the service. The “house call” services ranged from installing networks, to debugging a computer, to setting up an entertainment system, and cost from $100 to $300. “We’re like ‘Dragnet’; we show up at people’s homes and help,” Stephens says. “We’re also like Ghostbusters and there’s a pseudogovernment feel to it like Men in Black”
In 2002, Geek Squad was purchased by leading consumer electronics retailer Best Buy for about $3 million. Best Buy had observed very high return rates for most of its complex products. Shoppers would be excited about new products, purchase them and take them home, get frustrated trying to make them actually work, and then return them to the store demanding a refund. In fact, Best Buy research revealed that consumers were beginning to see service as a critical element of the purchase. The partnership was an excellent match. Best Buy consumers welcomed the help. Stephens became Geek Squad’s chief inspector and a Best Buy vice president and began putting a Geek Squad “precinct” in every Best Buy store, creating ...
Why your project's brand is more important than the code - SCRIPT
The document discusses the importance of branding and storytelling for open source projects. It argues that while code is important internally, branding and telling the story of a project's value to external audiences is key to growing communities and users. Effective branding involves both technical "Geeks" focused on code and non-technical "Suits" focused on communicating the project's benefits. The governance of a project's brand is also important to consider to ensure the community remains in control of the story being told.

Buying a computer
The document provides information to help a user determine what type of computer user they are and what kind of computer to buy based on their needs. It includes questions about experience level, intended use, software priorities, and expectations for technical support. Comparing sample computer advertisements, it analyzes key specs like processor, RAM, hard drive size, and included software and peripherals. The document advises on warranty and service options and suitable retail outlets for computer purchases.
Innovation report
This document proposes a modular smartphone design that allows users to customize their phone by swapping out components like the camera, processor, display, and battery. This would give users more control over upgrading their phone over time rather than replacing the whole device. It would reduce electronic waste and save users money by extending the life of their phone. The concept aims to offer ongoing upgrades without the guilt of constant consumerism and is presented as an appealing solution to consumers.

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.

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

For the full video of this presentation, please visit: https://www.edge-ai-vision.com/2024/06/temporal-event-neural-networks-a-more-efficient-alternative-to-the-transformer-a-presentation-from-brainchip/
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."$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Genteck Presentation
- 1. By: Nate, Eamon, Taylor, Connor & Xander Gentech, Computers for you by you Gen-teck Computers for you, by you
- 2. What is Gen-tech? Gentechis a computer manufacturer and programmer business. It is much like Microsoft, but we will appeal to people who have a lower budget. Gen-tech is also a company that will be accessible to everyone.
- 3. What are Gen-tech’s Goals? One ofGen-tech’sgoals is to revolutionize the hard disk; we will use G-cards, a triangular memory card, to read all required data. This will not only take less time to load onto your computer, but it is also is friendlier to the environment since it uses less plastic, metal, and other materials. Another one of Gen-tech’s goals is to create an anti-Hacking system that will not only stop the hacker but trace and track the hacker down.
- 4. What is one of Gentech’sideas? One of our other ideas is the G-Slick: A touch screen computer with a G-card insert. It will be about the size of an I-phone, but very slim and with better software and technology. Another of our ideas is the Ruby, a Game system much like Microsoft’s X-box 360 but capable of accepting and converting all competing disks (such as WII and PS2/3).
- 5. Where is Gen-tech located? Gen-tech is located at our homes, and with an online presence at a gaming software site. With funding, we hope to build an official base building that would combine manufacturing , software development, and corporate offices.
- 6. Our Money We hope to raise over ten million dollars in our first round of funding and first year of business. We also hope to control over a hundred stores across the nation and internationally in three years. Investors will see a return on their money as product is sold, or as the company achieves a public offering.
- 7. Any Questions ? Q: “Will that be compatible with our computer?” A: The answer is YES! We sell CD versions of all of our products. Q:“How soon can I invest?” A: We are currently offering options that can be purchased, or we can negotiate a percentage of the company in return for large amounts.
- 8. That’s It! I hope that you get the general idea of Gentech and hope that you will soon see improved objects like the G-slip. Thanks for your attention!
