Indonesia has implemented several initiatives to expand ICT access across its thousands of islands. These include the Palapa Ring broadband fiber optic network to connect more regions, and mobile M-PLIK vehicles that provide affordable Internet access in rural areas. While these have increased connectivity, challenges remain in fully funding infrastructure and addressing issues like uneven resource distribution and software piracy. Lessons indicate that expanding broadband access can significantly increase economic growth, and that universal access is important for development.
The indigenous Telecoms, Internet, Media & Edutainment (TIME) sector
has grown its international footprint over the last six years. The continued adoption of high-speed internet (fixed and mobile) as a direct channel opens up a significant revenue opportunity.
India telecom revenues is primarily driven by voice which constitutes to 90% of total revenues leaving only a smaller portion for data. Aegis LeadCap Research & Consulting predicts that in next 5 years share of revenue from voice will reduce down to 60% from its current state of 90%. 40% revenue from data also includes the revenue from BWA service providers like Reliance Infotel, Tikona etc. Most prominent value add services which drives data revenues include mobile internet, mobile broadband, games, location based services, video calls, mobile adverts, music, video and mobile TV.

Malaysia's Digital Economy: A New Driver of DevelopmentZiaullah Mirza
For Malaysia to continue progressing in its development path, the digital economy is poised to be the new driver of development. However, businesses in Malaysia have adopted digital technologies less readily than the government and population.
Rapid growth in basic digital adoption has contributed to a new digital divide where Malaysia lags behind international peers in digital adoption by businesses.
Only 62% of businesses are connected to the Internet, 46% has fixed broadband (often of low quality) and 18% have a web presence of some kind.
Large export-oriented firms dominate the digital economy as they adopt e-commerce at higher rates than SMEs.
Most of the digital economy’s measurable growth has been concentrated in the manufacturing sector of urbanized states.
For the country to ensure that growth in the digital economy is broad-based and sustainable, key barriers related to digital connectivity, entrepreneurship and taxation need to be addressed.

Application of digital Technologies
- to realize the vision of 2021 and 2041
Vision of 2021 – Middle-riddle Status
Vision of 2041 – Developed Status
Status of Bangladesh – Classified as close to Middle-Income countries by World Bank and valued as the Per Capita Gross National Income (GNI)
Digital India is a campaign launched by the Government of India to ensure that Government services are made available to citizens electronically by improving online infrastructure and by increasing Internet connectivity or by making the country digitally empowered in the field of technology. Digital India was launched by Shri Narendra Modi, Prime Minister on 2nd July 2015 with an objective of connecting rural areas with high-speed Internet networks and improving digital literacy i.e. the knowledge, skills, and behaviors used in a broad range of digital devices such as smart phones, tablets, laptops and desktop PCs, all of which are seen as network rather than computing devices. The Digital India Programme aims to transform India into a digitally empowered society and knowledge economy by leveraging IT as a growth engine of new India. Even though India is known as a powerhouse of software, the availability of electronic government services to citizens is still comparatively low. The National e- Governance Plan approved in 2006 has made a steady progress through Mission Mode Projects and Core ICT Infrastructure, but greater thrust is required to ensure effective progress in electronics manufacturing and e-Governance in the country. The Vision of Digital India is a power to empower citizens through digital literacy provides the intensified impetus to develop India for a knowledgeable future by developing central technology for allowing revolution which covers many departments under one umbrella programme. This paper is an attempt to study mainly opportunities, impact and challenges of vision of digital India.

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.

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. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

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.

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.

service, statistic survey, information
dissemination of government program, school,
commodity prices, local potential , and tourism
(Fajar Newspaper July 2012)
15. Impact to National Development
Indirect Impact
• Economic : Increasing economic growth
- Internet contribute 1,6 % of Gross Domestic Product in Indonesia,
compare to liquefied natural gas that contribute 1,4% (Delloite Access
Economic Cited in Ministry of Communication and Information News, 2012)
- Information and Communication Technology sector (ICT) in
Indonesia is one of the most dynamic sectors of the economy
contributing most to GDP growth rate (around 16%) than any other
sector. (Djalil, ICT Expert in interviewed of, 2007)
• Health: Improved quality and effectiveness of
government and private health systems
Indonesia GHI Country Strategy :Improved Health Impact through
Collaboration (HSWG Health Sector Working Group,August 2011)
16. Key Implementation Challenges
M-PLIK Project
Resource in Local Government
• Lack of budget for daily operation in local government to pay driver,
operator, and maintenance And competent human resource for operate
M-PLIK
• It was happened in Gorontalo (a province in east ), the Governor
Province refused 50 units of M-PLIK (Liputan 6 New, October 2012).
Issues on Procurement Process
• Suspicion on Corruption - delay on 174 units which still not finish
(Jakarta Newspaper, 2012). The bidding winner for M-PLIK was
blamed and suspicious on direct appointment of procurement issues.
17. Lesson learned
• We learn that ICT could become a major
contributor for increasing in GDP rates
10% increase in a nation’s broadband access, the country will
experience a 1.3% increase in their economic growth (Kelly –
Policy Expert at World Bank Cited in Savageu Blog, 2010)
• We figure out that internet access is important
for all of citizens including the rural
communities
• Indonesia can be a model for another country
which consists of many islands and developing
countries
