This document discusses moving from open data to linked open data. It notes that in 30 days, 47 new useful services were created using open data at a total cost of $50,000, with an estimated return on investment of 4,000%. It advocates linking and connecting open government data using shared identifiers and descriptions in order to enable greater innovation, transparency and collaboration across organizations.

Active Network is a novel approach of networking to mobile users in which the nodes are programmed to perform custom operations on the messages that pass through the node. It provides an architectural support for dynamically deploying new protocols in an existing network topology. The routers in an active network can download and execute code that is contained in the packets passing through them, thus rendering the node recognized and run totally new protocols without making any changes to the architecture of the network. Because the network's behavior can be altered at any time, active networks could be used to provide dynamic quality of service (QoS) or to support dynamic solutions to traffic congestion. This research implements and tests such specialized Active Networks security service known as the firewall and the ping service in Active Network. Active Network environment will be implemented on a small scale test scenario in order to study the performance and characteristics of active networks
On a few hours notice, due to another presenter's "volcano-cancelled" flight, I was asked to fill an empty slot at the Norwegian GoOpen 2010 conference. On the background of the freshly proposed data.norge.no site, I decided to present a high level motivation for open data and linked open data in context of government, briefly compare and contrast its predecessors, data.gov and data.gov.uk, and suggest a possible middle ground between "anything goes" and "one format only" (in Norwegian).

Data-Ed Online: Trends in Data ModelingDATAVERSITY
Businesses cannot compete without data. Every organization produces and consumes it. Data trends are hitting the mainstream and businesses are adopting buzzwords such as Big Data, data vault, data scientist, etc., to seek solutions for their fundamental data issues. Few realize that the importance of any solution, regardless of platform or technology, relies on the data model supporting it. Data modeling is not an optional task for an organization’s data remediation effort. Instead, it is a vital activity that supports the solution driving your business.
This webinar will address emerging trends around data model application methodology, as well as trends around the practice of data modeling itself. We will discuss abstract models and entity frameworks, as well as the general shift from data modeling being segmented to becoming more integrated with business practices.
Takeaways:
How are anchor modeling, data vault, etc. different and when should I apply them?

Summarising User Research - D2I presentation CSCDUG 130723.pptxRocioMendez59
13 July, 2023 - CSCDUG Online Event
Presenting the Sector-led Standard Safeguarding Dataset
Colleagues from Data to Insight, the LA-led service for children’s safeguarding data professionals, are delivering a DfE-funded project in partnership with LAs to define a new “standard safeguarding dataset” which all LAs will be able to produce from their safeguarding information systems.
At this session, they shared what they’ve learned so far from user research with LA colleagues and discussed their early thinking about what a better standard dataset might look like. Participants shared their own thoughts about how to improve these systems and processes.
Presenters
Alistair Herbert
Alistair is the lead officer for Data to Insight, the LA-led service for children’s safeguarding data professionals. With a career focused on local authority children’s services data work, he knows about safeguarding data, information systems, and cross-organisation collaboration.
John Foster
John is a Data Manager for Data to Insight. He has supported a range of children’s services data work, most recently at Shropshire Council. He led Data to Insight’s project to introduce the first national benchmarking dataset for Early Help, and is the user research lead for Data to Insight’s Standard Safeguarding Dataset project.
Rob Harrison and Joe Cornford-Hutchings
Rob and Joe are new Data Managers joining Data to Insight from the private and public sector respectively. They bring between them a wealth of experience and technical expertise, and will be working together to support design and implementation of the new Standard Safeguarding Dataset through 2023-24.
This is the presentation given to the Centre for Research in Social Simulation (CRESS) at the University of Surrey which hosted a day of presentations on agent-based simulation models that have already led to or are close to leading to influencing decision makers in a range of application areas, including healthcare, consultancy and economics. The event builds on the previous meeting of the Simulation SIG that compared DES and SD, as well as a stream at the OR Society\'s 2010 Simulation Workshop, and a recent special issue of the Journal of Simulation.
The Data Driven University - Automating Data Governance and Stewardship in Au...Pieter De Leenheer
Data Governance and Stewardship requires automation of business semantics management at its nucleus, in order to achieve data trust between business and IT communities in the organization. University divisions operate highly autonomously and decentralized, and are often geographically distributed. Hence, they benefit more from an collaborative and agile approach to Data Governance and Stewardship approach that adapts to its nature.
In this lecture, we start by reviewing 'C' in ICT and reflect on the dilemma: what is the most important quality of data being shared: truth or trust? We review the wide spectrum of business semantics. We visit the different phases of growing data pain as an organization expands, and we map each phase on this spectrum of semantics.
Next, we introduce our principles and framework for business semantics management to support Data Governance and Stewardship focusing on the structural (what), processual (how) and organizational (who) components. We illustrate with use cases from Stanford University, George Washington University and Public Science and Innovation Administrations.

“The potential benefits
of democratizing data
are many, and varied:
–
more informed policy
debate, grounded in
fact, rather than
rhetoric
–
consensus building
–
better legislation
–
greater transparency

greater accountability

17. “So far, the deployment of EI has been based
strongly on a combination of the following two
objectives:
•
Objective 1: Supporting a “big bang” transition to
a more efficient, enterprise-wide “best way” of
working. This seeks to make sure that the enterprise
remains competitive under changing market
conditions. This new best way of working is defined
by a relatively small group of dedicated expert
analysts (industrial engineers, business engineers,
information analysts etc.) and implemented and
maintained top-down.
•
Objective 2: Once the major change related to
Objective 1 is completed and the new way of
working has become business as usual, exploiting
the predicted gains in efficiency as much and as
long as possible in order to secure a proper return
on the investment made during the initial big bang
change process.”
18. •
Objective 3: EI should stimulate value creation
based on innovation and co-creation in a context of
networked enterprises that is very much defined
bottom-up, by creative, committed workers.
According to this perspective, EI helps “reflective
practitioners” to manage their work, their
responsibilities, the key knowledge they possess,
and their relations to the work and knowledge of
others (inside and outside their own enterprise).
Unlike the traditional approach, this support is not
driven top-down and purely enterprise centric, but
allows a much more individual and subjective
approach that leverages personal creativity and
initiative.
While traditionally individuals were supposed to
adjust to “the system”, now the situation is
reversed: the system is much more
about supporting the individuals.”
