Map-Reduce for Machine Learning on Multicoreillidan2004
This document proposes a map-reduce framework for parallelizing machine learning algorithms on multicore processors. The key ideas are:
1) Many machine learning algorithms can be expressed in "summation form" by computing sufficient statistics through summing over data points, allowing data to be partitioned across cores.
2) A map-reduce architecture is developed where data is split among "mappers", which compute partial sums in parallel, and a "reducer" aggregates the results.
3) Ten popular algorithms including linear regression, k-means, logistic regression, and neural networks are shown to fit this framework and achieve near-linear speedup with additional cores.
The document provides information about an upcoming HR conference in 2011. It includes:
1) An organizing committee that will anchor the event and lists their names.
2) An overview that the conference will be inclusive, focus on fresh thinking for business impact, and get leaders ready for changing times.
3) Details about what will make the conference fresh, including pre-conference workshops, a young thought leaders contest, an HR showcase, opportunities for participants to make their own conference, and a voice of youth segment.
This document provides an example of classifying a mixture called "Sao Boso PJI Mix" according to the GHS system without using an automated classification system. It lists the ingredients in the mixture and their hazards. It then determines the hazards of the mixture based on the hazards of its ingredients. The key hazards of the mixture are that it is flammable, harmful if swallowed, causes skin and eye irritation, and may cause respiratory and central nervous system effects. The document concludes by providing the full GHS label elements for the mixture including pictograms, signal word, hazard statements, and precautionary statements.

Although we speak of bringing in the Completed Testament Age, our culture was falling into the Old Testament again. So the question can arise, “Why did we digress into an Old Testament-like culture, and with that kind of culture how are we going to inherit the foundation of Christianity which is a universal religion?”

If you have been keeping up with global climate change and the dynamics of our political state, you must feel that the crisis is getting worse and worse. Tomorrow or death? It is sometimes difficult to predict which will come first as you retire for the evening.
It is too late to reverse climate change now, regardless of what efforts are made. However, mankind will not die out. Unfortunately though, not many people who are alive today will survive to that time and whether you will be one of them will depend completely upon your fortune, but even those who have fluky luck might not survive unharmed; causality is everything. We must rely on the laws and rules of nature.

This document summarizes the results of a survey conducted among citizens in G20 countries about their attitudes toward protecting the global commons and transforming society. The key findings are:
1) Most people (73%) believe the planet is close to tipping points due to human actions and are worried (58%) about the state of the global commons.
2) The vast majority (83%) want to do more to protect nature in the future.
3) While many (59%) recognize the need for energy transition, few (8%) understand the scale of societal transformation needed this decade to safeguard the global commons.
4) Most people (74%) support prioritizing well-being
The document discusses the implications of the growing world population reaching 8 billion by 2023. It notes that population growth poses significant challenges for food and water security, economic growth, and political stability. Some challenges mentioned include increased water scarcity, urban overcrowding, and exacerbating inequalities if growth is not sustainable and inclusive. Potential solutions explored include smart transportation, virtual reality, and addressing the challenges through innovation, collaboration, and sustainability.
The document discusses human population growth and its consequences. It notes that the current world population is around 6.9 billion and growing at a rate of 75 million people per year. There are two main views on population growth - Thomas Malthus argued that population growth will inevitably outstrip food supply, while Karl Marx believed population growth is caused by exploitation and poverty. Current views include neo-Malthusians who think Earth's carrying capacity has been surpassed, and neo-Marxists who believe eliminating oppression and poverty through social justice is key. Factors like birth rates, death rates, age distribution and policies on population and immigration influence growth rates between countries.
The rapid growth of the world's population since the industrial revolution poses serious challenges. It took from the beginning of humanity until 1804 for the population to reach 1 billion, but it grew to 6 billion by the late 20th century and is projected to exceed 9 billion by 2050. This exponential growth places tremendous strain on limited resources like land, energy, water and food production. One of the biggest concerns is the strain on available land as population increases outpace agricultural production, threatening food security. Engineers face the challenge of improving systems to support growing resource demands of larger populations.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.
