Succeeding by Connecting Across Boundaries and GenerationsJonathan Reichental
A far-reaching and provocative presentation given by Dr. Jonathan Reichental at the PwC People Forum in Athens, Greece that addresses head-on the opportunities and issues raised by the increasing use of digital communications and collaboration tools by individuals within and between enterprises and in the marketplace. Specifically, it discusses how a workforce that now spans four distinct generations must embrace these opportunities and evolve to navigate and succeed in a complex environment of behavirol and technical-competency differences. This has ramifications not just internally to the organisation but also, for example: in how it goes to market; how it collaborates and engages with customers; and how it competes in a global marketplace.

Jordan Bitterman on The Makegood: The Future of VideoThe Makegood
Digitas’ Jordan Bitterman, Senior Vice President and Social Marketing Practice Director, provides his view on the future of video.
“Summary: Video is being freed – It’s moving to the cloud. Software is becoming just as important as hardware. Business models & technology are slowing the pace of change. Familiar names are emerging as the new video power players.”
Accenture Mobility - Trends for the Next DecadeLars Kamp
From a deck that I presented at the SIIA “All About Mobile” conference in November 2011 in San Francisco. It starts with the usual set of slides on the recent history of mobility (and I will keep presenting them until I see no more “I had no clue” faces in an audience), and then goes deeper into Moore’s Law and how we see it continuing for cell phones.
An additional journey back in history to the early days of the industrialization and electricity. Companies had to generate their own power (by using wind, water, animals, etc.) and Burden’s Wheel is a good example of one big, giant monolithic effort to do so. Along came Tesla and Westinghouse, and the first power plant “Adam’s Plant” was able to provide about 3x the power, but over a much further distance, and to multiple customers. The concept of an electric utility was born, and what we saw happening was the fall of “enterprise power generation”.
Fast forward to 1969, and Douglas Parkhill and John McCarthy came up with the concept of the “Computer Utility”. Today we see multi-$B investments into public cloud infrastructures. In very simple terms, if history in the utility industry is any indicator, we will see enterprise clouds disappear. And as cloud infrastructures scale and get more efficient, and the price of computing goes down (Moore’s Law), developers will find a way to use and instrument that computing power, and make it consumable to enterprises and consumers, which gets us to Jevons’ Paradox.
Jevons observed how consumption of energy in England went up as coal power plants got more efficient. All the way to today where we keep the lights on in our homes 24/7, and darkness has actually become a scarce good in some metropolitan areas. Switching to enterprise computing and looking at BEA data on IT assets for the past four decades, we see that prices for IT assets are falling, whereas other assets follow an inflationary path. And as computing gets cheaper, enterprises consume more and more of it (and you can argue so do consumers, aka “Consumerization of IT”).
What is striking that with the arrival of the public Internet in ‘90-95 and web companies like Yahoo and Amazon, the mix in consumption is shifting: it’s increasingly going towards software, up from a SW:HW ratio of roughly 1:1 over three decades, to now 3:1. So today, for every $1 spent on hardware, enterprises spend $3 on software. Hence, it seems like enterprises are making use of the public cloud, which would explain the rise of SaaS companies, such Salesforce, SuccessFactors and also Amazon’s AWS.
And as the rise of smartphones is only beginning, enterprise mobility will likely drive the trend of an increasing SW:HW ratio further up. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the mix go to 10:1 in the next five years as smartphones proliferate and the amount of on-deck and off-deck computing power available to a single device is growing exponentially, the concept of “accelerated acceleratio

Digital In A Downturn Broadcast Asia2009 Finasfstine
End of days for TV? Following an opportunity to particpate in BroadcastAsia last week here in Singapore, I took a gander on making a few predictions on what was in store for Asia given trends in television and the onset of online, interactive alternatives:
1) Asia will leverage its broadband roll-out in order to be among the world’s first in delivering new video-telecom, e-government, and energy-management services
2) A new breed of interactive programming that combines gaming with television-style drama will dominate the Korean and Japanese entertainment landscape
3) China will struggle with these changes; intermittently clamping down then opening up, before the real revolution in digital media takes off
4) Indian software developers will unfurl new concepts in virtual (re: “cloud”) computing that lead to server and network optimization and higher levels of operational efficiency
5) Asian broadcast & cable operators will be vying for a place alongside the telecommunications’ companies who start offering bundled voice, broadband and interactive entertainment services

Modern Enterprise Service Management: Which Vendor is Right for Your Business?EasyVista
In tomorrow’s “Everything-as-a-Service World” there will not be a one-size-fits-all approach to selecting the best service management partners for your business. What’s just right for you might be completely wrong for someone else. What is certain is that choosing tomorrow’s ITSM platform based on yesterday’s requirements is a recipe for disaster. So what should you be planning for and who should you be considering?
Pink Elephant’s George Spalding dives into some of the trends shaping the industry. Joining him is Dennis Callaghan, Senior Enterprise Software Analyst with 451 Research, who reviews the current vendor landscape and highlights the “best fit” based on business needs.
Topics discussed:
- “SaaS or On Premise?” – the advantages to both, and to choice
- Vendor/Client “Culture Match” – the importance of find the right strategic fit runs deeper than just the technology
- Best of Breed vs. All-in-One” – understanding the pro’s and con’s
- “Customize vs. Vanilla Install” – what’s preferred, and what’s realistic
- “Future Proof” – a checklist to ensure long term success, not just short term gain
This webinar concludes with Russel Jesski, IT Director with FCCI Insurance. Russel will share the process his firm went through, and why they chose to partner with EasyVista.

OTT & Multiscreen - New Media OpportunitiesGabriel Dusil
Check out my blog "Multiscreen & OTT for a Digital Generation": www.dusil.com.
The era of multiscreen video has begun. Portability and connectivity are changing the video landscape. TV everywhere and other multiscreen initiatives are fundamentally changing the entertainment business model, with apps streaming live to TVs, computers, tablets, and mobile phones. According to the latest forecasts from Informa, the global online-video market will be worth $37 billion in 2017, driven by the popularity of OTT (Over the Top services). Broadcasters, content owners, and distributors must engage multiscreen delivery to survive. This presentation explores these market trends, and integrated solutions that bridge the gap between the broadcast world and multiscreen consumption.
Sleeping Giants: Digital Awakens TV and MediaRazorfish
Sleeping Giants: Digital Awakens TV and Media
Television has looked pretty much the same since its inception in the early 40s, give or take a few rabbit ears and a hundred pounds. But, the revolution has already begun. Recently Razorfish has been doing some significant research on the importance television plays in our lives, and what we think the fundamental shift that is taking place in TV and media, in general, will mean for advertising and marketers. As a digital agency, you might expect us to forecast the death of TV (and :30 spots), but you'd be wrong. We think TV's DNA will be alive and well, you just might not recognize it from how it looks today, and this digital impact will have major implications, not just for TV, but for media as a whole: technology, content development, distribution, advertising and brands.
Podcasting: Get It Online — National Press Club PresentationRichard Harrington
What is a podcast and how can it help my organization reach people online?
At this month's "Get It Online" lunch discussion, learn what a podcast is and why both communicators and journalists are increasingly using them to successful reach niche audiences. This informative session will share secrets on creating professional looking video for podcasting and other video-sharing technologies.
Podcasting is another name for audio and video blogging. The general idea is that you post audio or video content that someone can subscribe to. You are essentially creating a channel, one that you add audio, video, or print content to so it can be automatically downloaded to a subscribers’ computer or media player. All of this can occur without the need for email blasts, people logging onto websites, or expensive shipping bills.
Additionally, podcasting is much more affordable than streaming and web video options. Podcasting uses a distributed model, so instead of everyone coming to your website and clicking (then wanting to watch the video at the same time), podcasts download in the background automatically. This means that podcasts are there, waiting to be watched whenever and wherever the consumer wants them.

Digiday Video: Yume Workshop: Video Screen Equality and The 5W's of Connected TVDigiday
In today's consumer video viewing environment, screen fragmentation is a reality every media planner must face. A brand campaign's target audience is watching video on mobile, PCs, connected TVs and traditional linear TV at all times of the day. Which screen is the most emotional, which one garners the most attention, and which one has the best ad recall? On the heels of an in-depth consumer study, this session will discuss screen equality, who is connecting through their televisions, where, when and what they’re watching and, of course, why advertisers should be logging in.

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.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).
