State of Mobile Benchmark Report - MWC 2015 EditionApteligent
With access to global mobile metrics across all platforms, devices, and verticals, we've compiled the most insightful trends in our annual State of Mobile Report. Data is more than numbers; it tells the story of how you'll build a better mobile app.
This time AppTalk will focus on the everyday question of web applications vs hybrid applications vs native mobile applications. We'll provide guidance in making the business decision between these approaches. This will be presented through practical real-life cases. The focus will be on mobile applications rather than games.

Colin Buchanan from Scotland's Colleges and Justin Sales from Stevenson College jointly presented a tool for language learning at the e-Assessment Scotland 2010 conference, and picked up the award for Mobile E-Assessment.
Colin and Justin report:
"ESOL students have identified speaking and listening as the skills that they want to develop, the challenge for us is to provide detailed, relevant and timely feedback.
A successful solution has been implemented at Stevenson College Edinburgh using mobile phones and Web-2.0 technologies.
Learners broadcast their submissions direct from their mobiles to a secure website at a time and place that suits them, their peers and tutors are instantly alerted by e-mail, Facebook, or Twitter. They can listen, and respond using their own mobiles, creating a cycle of broadcasting, feedback and improvement.
Tutors can also upload their own standard pre-recorded exemplar presentations and learning intentions for the learners to listen to prior to lessons."

Starting with 8.5 tonnes of general waste going to landfill, the Fresh Olive Company implemented an environmental campaign to achieve zero landfill status. Being a food manufacturer with 130 employees it was imperative the employees get on board and fully back the initiative. This was both an environmental and internal communications challenge.
Working closely with Veris, they developed a creative stakeholder communications programme – Ready, Steady, Green! that was fun and resulted in operational improvements. The programme educated and inspired employees to do more with less through interactive workshops and visual communications tools. The interest and enthusiasm of the employees is maintained with additional seasonal campaigns.
The results were impressive, with green behaviours being embedded as a central focus of the business. Zero landfill status has been achieved, items have been donated to local charities and inedible food waste is now sent to Anaerobic Digestion which saves an impressive amount of carbon. Together, they proved that sustainable behaviours don’t need to be tedious or boring.

Tata Consultancy Services:The digital skills gap: bring the voice of 90 milli...Communicate Magazine
Tata Consultancy Services, a leading IT services firm, took a youthful approach to highlighting its work across Europe and generating brand awareness with senior public figures and decision makers. A youth and technology themed thought leadership campaign was an ideal fit with TCS – 70% of its global workforce is under the age of 30 and the company has strong working relationships with over 200 European schools.
The campaign also provided the perfect opportunity for TCS to showcase its stalwart support for the digital industry and young talent. The cornerstone of the campaign was a study of Europe’s youth and their attitudes to work and technology, featuring contributions from leading stakeholders including European government bodies, academics and businesses.
The results were impressive. Key partnerships were established, TCS’s image was strengthened, client engagement levels were at 92 % and the social media campaign was widely praised in the traditional press.

Ian McDonald Wood, research and consulting director, FutureValue
The past year has seen major changes in reporting, with greater requirements needing to be encorported in companies’ strategic reports due to the recent modification to The Companies Act 2006 legislation. Explaining specific aspects of intangible assets has always been a key area in the narrative report in previous years, so what's changed?
The 'people and the search for transparency in corporate reporting' session was led by those who shape the reporting process. The IIRC works to ensure integrated reporting is embedded into mainstream business practice, the FRC sets standards for corporate reporting and FutureValue are content specialists who help businesses develop meaningful content and narrative in their reports.

Wael Allahou, corporate communications executive, EQUATE Petrochemical Co
A company’s reputation is of the utmost importance to both internal and external audiences. When EQUATE Petrochemical Company went through a brand refresh – identifying new brand behaviours and modernising its logo, it was important to get its employees involved. As a global company with over 2,000 employees, a comprehensive internal comms strategy around the rebrand and behaviours was vital. Wael Allahou, corporate communications executive at EQUATE, shares the story of how employees were engaged and inspired by an internal communications programme which included the prize of a trip to NASA for astronaut training and a zero gravity flight.
Ashley Shackleton, external affairs Officer, Oil & Gas UK
The oil and gas industry is by some margin the single largest industrial contributor to the UK economy. In addition to its economic contribution, and its role in protecting energy security, the industry is a world class driver of innovation in UK science and technology. The oil and gas industry also creates and sustains an impressive number of skilled and valued jobs. Unfortunately these facts are not well known or understood. By proudly and consistently telling our story we will raise awareness about our contribution, improve understanding of what we contribute, and ensure we attain the support and recognition we need to thrive as an industry. This session will explore the public’s perceptions of the UK oil and gas industry and how we may hope to change them.

Rishi Bhattacharya, managing director energy & industrials, Edelman
Why Trust? Trust is a crucial asset. It is essential to protect, nurture and enhance trust in order to be successful in today’s complex operating environment. It is crucial for all organisations, but especially those operating in the energy sector.
In this session, and based on the findings of the annual Edelman Trust Barometer, we explore the role of trust in moving a business from having a licence to operate, to having a licence to lead. Through a short presentation, panel discussion and Q&A we explore the state of trust, the interaction between business, government, NGOs and the media, how to go about building trust and its importance to the bottom line.

Ian Louden, head of brand at ArcelorMittal, explores the relationship between brand and reputation. He suggests that now, more than ever, the brand that matters is the one that lives in the heads of stakeholders, not the one that the CEO or brand manager dreams of having.
Today, what stakeholders think about companies, in both their minds and hearts, can make the difference between advocacy and preference or opposition and rejection. Great brands – the kind for which stakeholders give the benefit of the doubt when a crisis comes – are earned as a consequence of the company’s actions and behaviours.

Setting the scene for the conference, this opening session looks at three key concepts: reputation, reputation risk and reputation management. Using a new categorisation model, the session focuses on the origins of reputation risk before looking at how risks can be managed through the lifecycle. Andrew Griffin, CEO of Regester Larkin and author of Crisis, Issues and Reputation Management, shares his insight and experience.

Activist groups are often at the top the reputation risks list for extractive companies, including those groups supporting everything from environmental change to wildlife protection. Communicating with these groups requires attention to CSR programmes, effective public affairs and stakeholder engagement on numerous levels.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.
