Secure Open Telephony Network Presentation at Hope 9Mark Belinsky
All of the necessary technologies and communications standards exist today for voice communications that are as secure as OpenPGP email. Both proprietary and open source solutions exist for desktop and mobile devices that implement the necessary bits to provide a solution without dependence upon one global service provider. ostel.me provides both a service and an application for the Android OS that is only marginally more complex to use than dialing an existing phone number, while still based entirely on open standards like SIP and ZRTP. The app is experimental and is based on existing open source client code provided by the CSipSimple, pjsip, and zrtp4pj projects.

We are currently living in times of great transformation. As the smartphone revolution ends, the next set of revolutions are starting. One of these revolutions is We have over the last couple of decade seen the Internet become the most powerful disrupting force in the world, connecting everyone and transforming businesses. Now everyday objects - things we use are getting smart with sensors and software. And they are connecting. What does this mean?
In this lecture we explore the Internet of Things, IoT or Internet of Everything
"It's not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, it is the one that is the most adaptable to change"
- Charles Darwin
The famous quote from Charles Darwin seems apt for the disruptive digital era, moving beyond the realms of physical limitations, opening new frontiers, and changing the fundamentals along the way. As a result, we are seeing the creation of highly agile, fearless and hyper-connected digital enterprise, willing to take on the world with unknowns at a rate never seen before. This book is a guiding lens to those established enterprises, who are weathering the storm, trying to reinvent themselves amidst disruptions that are threatening to take away their very existence. It also caters to the budding ones with blue-eyed approaches to win the market and make an impact on their customers. This book will help leaders transform through:
" Guiding frameworks for a transformed disruptive mindset
" Building blocks of disruptive digital enterprise
" Engagement models that define customer experience
" Digital maturity model, toolkits and assessment framework
" Knowledge on how to build a roadmap design
Disruptive Digital is richly illustrated with real world examples from Netflix, GE, Microsoft, Uber, Nike etc. along with detailed case studies of Indian Railways and Amazon, analyzing their digital maturity and roadmap moving forward. The book introduces a fresh perspective and innovative model to guide leaders and their teams in expanding their capacity to engage in the new disruptive era.

The long list of factors contributing to the current pace of disruptive change across the news industry continues to evolve at an unprecedented rate. Now is the time for journalists and news organizations to start thinking not only about how can they program to the devices that exist today, but how to best to prepare themselves for three to five years down the road. News Innovation Strategist Victor Hernandez promises to stubbornly put down his smartphone for a short while in order to pick up the crystal ball and lend some thoughtful anticipation to where the hockey puck is headed.
The ideas that zoom in on The Day After Tomorrow are the ones that change entire companies, industries and even the world. They are where ENORMOUS amounts of LONG TERM VALUE lie. They are where the truly great ones – the giants of industry, those that provoke paradigm shifts – focus a lot of attention on: the Ubers of this world, and the Googles, with their moon shots. In this eye-opening presentation, Peter explains how we need to adapt to the accelerated speed of the market and how others were able to do so, in a way that propelled them ahead of the race. He shows how companies won’t make it to the Day After Tomorrow if they don’t embed Day After Tomorrow Thinking into the DNA of their organisation.
Mobile trender. Mobil er nå. Ikke fremtiden. Mobilen er blitt den viktigste medieplattformen i folks liv. Mobilen fungerer som en forlengelse av brukeren selv. Mobilen endrer alle bransjer, også de analoge. Mobil + sosiale medier + wearables, gjør at nettforsiden som destinasjon over tid vil forvitre.
What is the future like? Can we predict the future? Doing so is not easy. Even if you have some ideas on how things are developing, convincing others is not easy.
However, there are some clear signs that can tell us what are the next big industries. We are now in the digital age and real time software is causing dramatic transformation of industries.
In this lecture we look at nine important trends that you need to know about.
The recent convergence of portable devices have led to the rise of a new trend which I have termed the “Mobilitization of Things” or MoT for short. At Frost & Sullivan, we believe this trend could become the harbinger for new disruptive business models and computing practices especially in the ICT sector.
Two-thirds of U.S. adults use at least one mobile media device in their daily lives. Roger Fidler’s recent research aims to answer questions about this use: what people are the most likely to consume news on a mobile device, and what devices do they use?
Reynolds Fellow Scott Swafford kicked off the workshop and shared some of his research at RJI's "Down-home Democracy: Empowering Citizens With Outstanding Coverage of Local Elections" on Friday, Jan. 31, 2014.

Presented by Josh Engroff: August 19, 2015
This presentation provides an introduction to the general concept and principles of analysis, as well as the strategic benefits that can be realized from its fundamental applications. In it, we examine some informative cases illustrating the value organizations have been able to achieve by embracing and practicing diligent analytics. Additionally we share some of the most practical tools, techniques and methods commonly employed in manipulating and analyzing data in pursuit of pivotal underlying insights that fuel superior decision-making.
History has many examples of powerful companies that seem to be unbeatable. Then in a short time they become irrelevant due to new companies with new ideas. One of the factors in such transformation is technology. Never in history has technological change been so important in building and destroying companies.
We look at few examples of successful companies that fail to address the changing times and become disrupted. We also look at why technology emerges when it does and why some ideas can only be realised when certain conditions are met.
In this first lecture we set the tone for the course and define the themes that we will be looking at.
A few numbers about the mobile internet's usage and trends with focus on Latin America. Pretty useful data from various sources compiled into a brief summary of what we can expect in the short and medium terms throughout the region.
At any given moment it is easy to look back to see how technology has changed over time. At the same time it is difficult to see what transformations are taking place in current moment, and even more difficult to see where things are going.
We will explore what technology is. For us it may be the latest tech stuff we see, something new. But what about everyday objects that we take for granted. Are those not technologies also?
How does technology evolve and where did it come from? We look at some ideas on evolution of technology and how it is similar to biology in some ways. We will also look at the origin of the word technology. Finally we will define the term we will use in the course. Terms defined are technology, product performance, and innovation to name few.

Mobile apps and push notifications are often touted as the golden ticket to engage news consumers with timely and relevant content. For cash-strapped small and medium-sized news organizations a custom-built mobile app is a pipe dream, at best. In response to this problem, RJI Residential Fellow Christopher Guess presented about his ongoing project “Push” on Thursday, Aug. 31, at noon in Fred W. Smith Forum.
Push is an open-source, natively built, mobile news app for iOS and Android that any publication can take for free and easily customize for their own organization. With this tool push notifications, detailed analytics, offline-caching and many other features are available to local newsrooms in ways that only the big names could play with before.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.
