Head to Head - The Battle between the Bellheads and the Netheads for control ...Pieter Geldenhuys
Part 1: When the infrastructure is ubiquitous and operates as a utility, like water or electricity, we will move beyond the current paradigm of cyberspace. What happens when information and knowledge are accessible to all who choose to look? What happens when eBusiness, eHealth and eLiteracy have become an invisible normality? What happens after the Ubiquitous Internet has irreparably changed our very understanding of the world we live in? A new Digital Value Chain will be required when the Netheads and Bellheads pit their business models against each other in an epic battle where the only winner is bound to be the consumer. Who will find the right balance between the investments required to support the infrastructure and the money that inevitably will flow to edge of the network where the intelligence and power resides?

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

vividwireless Challenges with Fast,
Affordable 4G Broadband
vividwireless launched its wireless broadband services during a period of rapidly growing demand,
stimulated initially by the iPhone and the iPad, and subsequently by the growing number of Android
smartphones and pads. The scramble to sign up these new broadband accounts has seen a rapid
fall in data plan charges across the country.
Operators are now seeking to provide more services to improve profitability and share in what has
become a competitive market, with Telstra, Optus and VHA all claiming 98% or better population
coverage with 3G networks. How can vividwireless win market share from the ISP’s and 3G/3.5G
incumbents? Low entry price plans and product bundling are insufficient to sustain long term growth.
vividwireless must distinguish itself through a strategic service and product positioning in the market,
monetizing multimedia rich content and VoIP services. It is, in fact, well placed to do so, being a
wholly owned subsidiary of Seven Group Holdings Limited.
14. A key differentiator in the market proposition, performance, is highly dependent on
the target market sector and infrastructure investment. vividwireless’ WiMAX
network has currently the most advanced technology, offering superior performance
to all the other 3G networks. The performance of vividwireless’ network launched in
Perth in March, 2010 has been excellent, with smaller networks launched in
metropolitan Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra & Brisbane.
vividwireless’ business objectives are rooted in delivering exceptional customer
experience & service quality, with better and faster wireless services at value
based price points. WiMAX technology has an advantage in its time to market,
without the complexity of pits and pipes, fixed DSL services or cell site build-out
(in 3G with spectrum constraints). Being able to take your service with you to
another location within the coverage area (nomadic services), is a great
advantage against DSL and HFC services in homes and offices. vividwireless has
also been creative in offering customers the ability to run multiple devices on the
one account, instead of requiring separate broadband accounts for home, office,
kids and mobile needs.
vividwireless pty ltd was incorporated in 2009 and has offices in Sydney and Perth,
Australia. vividwireless pty ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Seven Group Holdings
Limited.
vividwireless provides wireless broadband services on a WiMAX network supporting
voice and data in its product portfolio. The network launched in Perth in March,
2010 and has since expanded to select parts of metropolitan Sydney, Melbourne,
Adelaide, Canberra & Brisbane.
vividwireless is changing the way consumers utilize the power of wireless broadband
services. Fast, portable wireless Internet services with affordable and premium
devices: USB modems, Wi-Fi hotspots and desktop modems with built-in Wi-Fi,
LAN and VoIP capability set new benchmarks for customer service and value for money.

• Explosion of smart devices broadband with an annual growth rate of between 10% and 15%. Likewise,
• Application stores the residential broadband market grew by 50% more than business market.
In 2009, there were close to 200 Internet service providers in Australia providing
retail broadband. However, the market was dominated by a small number
of companies; Telstra supplies nearly 45% of services, followed by the
second-largest player, Optus, with around 11% of the market. The remaining
market share is distributed over 180 small and medium sized providers.
The enabling factor for subscriber growth will come from untapped demand both
in cities and sub-rural areas, where intense competitive pressure will start to
depress prices further. Forecasts indicate there will be double digit subscriber
growth² for the next five years.

Towering the DX
Traditional devices merely bridged the service into the premises. Today, devices are
becoming more advanced and structured, aiding network coverage and capacity.
One of the major challenges faced by WiMAX operators lies in providing sound
indoor coverage, due to the higher frequencies of transmission. This challenge is
far less for operators using frequencies often a third or a quarter of the WiMAX
frequency. Device improvements including smart antenna, chipset and power
amplifier design, beamforming and other enhancing technologies play major roles
in contributing to the network quality and performance.
The DX WiMAX modem was accorded the prestigious iF Product Design Award
2010 and 4GWE Product of the Year 2010 award for its excellent aesthetics and
performance. Three key areas that are distinctive include:
• Optimizing indoor coverage (high gain antennas, Switched Tx Diversity,
TDD-SOFDMA, MIMO A & B, ARQ & HARQ and high transmission power)
• Boosting coverage with Wi-Fi access
• Ease of use (reduced customer service support).
The DX Tower is part of Greenpacket’s portfolio of next generation Wave 2
compliant WiMAX Modems for residential and small-medium business users. It is a
WiMAX Integrated Access Device (IAD) that features a blend of superior aesthetics,
data and voice access ports, high gain antennas with omni-directional
performance to offer best-in-class performance.

18. SWIFT NETWORKS, Africa
Fast Tracking 4G in Nigeria
“We’re offering access to the Internet at a game-changing speed. With higher speed access,
Nigerian businesses and consumers will be more productive and competitive as they are able to do
more everyday at 4G speeds. They will also be able to share the same 4G connection, make and
receive clear voice calls at affordable prices, without the complications of cabled networking.”
Chuma Okoye
Chief Operating Officer
SWIFT
Nigeria Broadband at a Glance
SWIFT launched its WIMAX 4G service in January 2011 with a rigorous coverage ambition to reach
up to 10 million¹ people. It prides itself on leadership in innovation and utilizes the best technologies
to empower the savvy Nigerian at work and home. To achieve and sustain this, SWIFT has to
differentiate itself in the very competitive Nigerian telecoms market. Nigeria has a population of more
than 150 million people, with over 150 ISPs in operation offering broadband Internet service speeds
ranging from 32kbps to 8Mbps for residential, enterprise and corporate markets.
However, the broadband Internet market is still underdeveloped and is weighed down by various
factors including low fixed-line and PC penetration, poor wireless network infrastructure, service
quality, and high connection cost. Typically, ISPs provide broadband Internet experience either via
legacy cabled copper or VSATs (direct satellite Internet access solution) which are clunky and
inflexible in terms of accessibility and installation charges. In short, broadband Internet was a costly
affair for the general public.

19. Nigeria is Africa’s largest communications market, ideal for growth; large young population and modest penetration levels.
Previously, it suffered from the lack of international connectivity. The arrival of MainOne in 2009 and Glo1 submarine cable in
2010 can now connect Nigeria to West Africa and Europe, resulting in more international bandwidth to operators, transforming
broadband adoption, ie. cheaper and faster Internet access to the end-users.
SWIFT Networks Ltd is a Lagos, Nigeria based provider of multi-service broadband telecommunications services to businesses
and residential subscribers in the 3.5GHz spectrum. Its services include WiMAX 4G broadband Internet, digital telephony,
data and video surveillance solutions.
The company is providing its next generation 4G service branding “SWIFT 4G Broadband” available in Lagos and with a network
signal covering over 10 million people with further expansion also in progress.

The SWIFT Advantage
• Provide improved broadband
speeds SWIFT’s 4G launch heralded a new service experience for most users since high
• Provide converged broadband speed Internet, VoIP, multimedia content were previously inaccessible in the Nigerian
service for voice, data and market due to poor wired network infrastructure and unreliable wireless services.

• Overcome poor indoor experience and careful in its strategy to deliver consistent access speed of 2Mbp
performance per subscriber.
Conventional USB modems perform marginally better than indoor modems.
However, in dense city dwellings like Lagos, the propensity for multipath
propagation impairs performance, negating its effectiveness to offer a stable and
reliable service. SWIFT understood the importance of selecting the right product
strategy in entering the competitive market.
In order to win customers and cap market share, the UH350 proved to be a key
differentiator, outperforming conventional USB modems in the market.
The advanced antenna designs render NLOS limitations to the most minimal,
thus performing on par as one would expect from a fixed wireless modem.
With equivalent entry price points, SWIFT managed to provide greater access
speeds and capacity to keep their customers satisfied. Additionally, there are no
more fixed monthly charges passed on to customers.
