Connecting Everything Vital to Sustainability
Mobile network evolution has followed a reasonably predictable path almost entirely focused on the needs of human communication. The transition from 1 to 2G was dictated by the economics of reliability, performance, and scale, whilst 3, 4, and 5G saw the transition to mobile computing with full internet access, AI and an ever-expanding plethora of applications. But 5G could be the end of the line as cell-site energy demands have become excessive at ~10kW.
Midway between the migration from 4G to 5G, M2M and the IoT machines overtook the human population of 8Bn people with near (estimated) 20Bn devices. Current IoT growth rates suggest a 40 - 60Bn population by 2030 to 2050. However, we present evidence that it could be far more ~ 1,000Bn ‘Things’. This is based on the observation of the number of IoT components populating modern vehicles, homes, offices, factories and plants, along with smart ‘human implants’ and ‘smart bolts’ plus the instrumentation of civil; structures.
The bold assumption that 5G would be a dominant player in the IoT is now patently one of naivety and the world has become far more complex with over 10 wireless standards currently in use. So, this poses the question; will 6G rise to the challenge? We see this as highly unlikely as the diversity of need is extremely broad, and we propose that it could be the end of tower based networks for a lot of applications. A migration to mesh-nets, UWB and (Hyper Wide Band) for the IoT at frequencies above 100GHz seems the most obvious engineering choice as it allows for far simpler designs with extremely low power at sub $0.01/device cost. 5G is already on the margins of being sustainable, and a ‘more-of-the-same’ thinking 6G can lonely be far worse!
Create an IoT Gateway and Establish a Data Pipeline to AWS IoT with Intel - I...Amazon Web Services
In this session, learn how to create a complete Gateway-based IoT framework – from the edge to the cloud and back. By using an IoT Gateway as a central data collection, processing, and communication hub, you can create IoT connectivity without having to replace legacy hardware. We show you how to use an Intel NUC gateway and Arduino 101 sensor hub to gather environmental data, and step you through establishing a data pipeline to AWS IoT. We use AWS Lambda to create a rules engine for your data, and then send a control signal back down the Intel Gateway. Bring your laptop and your AWS account for this workshop.
Telecom customer services appear to be stuck in the early 20th Century with the telephone call the primary channel for service provision that can take days to affect. Compare that to Google, Amazon, IBM, Apple and other modern companies where customers control service provision by the minute or second.
Modem business is driven by the accumulation of customer data, but the Telecom Industry sees vast amounts of customer-related data dormant and untapped. As a result, many new opportunities are lost. For example, the behavior of people, devices, systems, and networks give the earliest indicators of potential security problems.
OTT operators exploit networks and make far greater profits than any other sector and this might be further amplified by the roll-out of 5G. But without a fundamental rethink of FTTP, 5G will fail to deliver sufficient coverage and the advertised data rates. This pending failure is already seeing alternative solutions from outside the industry along with the realization that most ‘things’ on the IoT will never connect to the internet!
This presentation gives a lot of insights into Jimdo's infrastructure that hosts 20 million websites. To enable our application developers to quickly launch and improve their services, we've created a platform called Wonderland that does all the infrastructure work them.
In this talk, I present the parts of Wonderland related to monitoring and logging. You can learn about our Prometheus setup as well as how we stream log messages from Docker to Logstash.

Consistency, Availability, Partition: Make Your ChoiceAndrea Giuliano
Shared data systems try hardly to satisfy data consistency, system availability and tolerance to network partitions.
In a distributed system it is impossible to simultaneously provide all these guarantees at any given moment in time.
The purpose of the talk is to show the mechanism used by data storage systems such as Dynamo and BigTable in order to satisfy two guarantees at a time.

Introduction to Indian Financial System ()Avanish Goel
The financial system of a country is an important tool for economic development of the country, as it helps in creation of wealth by linking savings with investments.
It facilitates the flow of funds form the households (savers) to business firms (investors) to aid in wealth creation and development of both the parties
US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

• The European side approved the Ukraine Plan, which the government adopted to determine indicators for the Ukraine Facility. That approval will allow Ukraine to receive a EUR 1.9 bn loan from the EU in May. At the same time, the EU provided Ukraine with a EUR 1.5 bn loan in April, as the government fulfilled five indicators under the Ukraine Plan.
• The USA has finally approved an aid package for Ukraine, which includes USD 7.8 bn of budget support; however, the conditions and timing of the assistance are still unknown.
• As in March, annual consumer inflation amounted to 3.2% yoy in April.
• At the April monetary policy meeting, the NBU again reduced the key policy rate from 14.5% to 13.5% per annum.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

In traditional currencies governments (via central banks) print money.
In virtual currencies there have been introduced mechanisms where
nodes sustaining the transactions network receive rewards.
The first reward type is block discovery. Block discovery is time limited
and has been designed to promote the network bootstrap.
The second reward type are transaction fees. These will fully replace
block discovery in the long term.

Different cryptocurrencies can be mined applying different algorithms which require
different HW performances.
Some performances can be satisfied by a CPU, other by a GPU (CPU resistant), other
only by dedicated HW (GPU resistant).
Dedicated HW implement only a certain type of algorithm.
A miner with dedicated HW can mine only cryptocurrencies compatible with its own
HW.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are subject to evolution. This evolution aim
the improvement or fix of certain issues and also the addition of new
functionalities to enable new applications. There are two types of changes to a
cryptocurrency protocol, one that is backward compatible and one that isn’t.
• Soft fork: restrict block acceptance rules. Forward compatible.
• Hard fork: expand block acceptance rules. No forward compatible.

Mining is an activity relying on dedicated parallel
processing hardware which differ from standard
processing hardware in power requirements (x5 in respect
of a normal server) and low Internet connection band.
Energy prices correctly applied in traditional data centers
are therefore not affordable.
23. Mining is suitable to the absorption of energy
overproduction because it can be activated on
demand and provides a guaranteed conversion
between
electric power ⬄ computational power ⬄ gain

Depending on the availability of energy,
dimensioning starts from a minimum of 140KW/h,
which corresponds to an occupancy of 15sqm, to
be housed in an environment with a volume or
cooling system compatible to the disposal of the
heat produced (140KW/h). The model scales
linearly with an initial yield of about 0.58EUR/KWh
gross. 1MW installation occupies 110sqm at the
same efficiency.

A miner is a machine that consumes electricity and produces heat
(other than digital money).
It is possible to speculate on scenarios where industry is currently
using large amount of heated air (greenhouses, drying plants)
produced with electricity. Costs of production would be dampen by
mining revenue.
It also plausible to imagine the replacement of cheaper non-
renewable energy sources for air heating with electricity based
“mining heaters” which compensate their higher supply costs
through the generation of digital money and green certificates.

• A tax authority could implement an institutional mining pool
and claim mining power as provision of tax services.
• Mining power means possibility to apply different priorities on
transactions based on taxation criteria.
• Implement a set of fiscal tracking and enforcing.
• Realize digital consensus services.
