The document discusses a project analyzing future skills needed for digital transformation in Europe. It outlines the project's goals of understanding future skills demands from employers, implications for vocational education, and opportunities for inclusiveness. The project aims to create a framework for classifying new skills and better skills data. It then presents the project's conceptualization of skills categorization, with groups like digital skills, professional skills, and analogous skills like complex thinking, social skills, and self-management. Within each category are examples of specific skills identified as important for future work.
Impact of semantic technologies on scholarly publishingMills Davis
Semantic technologies will impact future business models for scholarly publishing.
First stage was the transition from publishing based on analog artifacts, to processes built for digital documents where computers are used as electronic pencils and XML based indices.
Second stage is semantic metadata where the computer is used to describe the published content in multiple ways -- think of it as a cambrian explosion of post-it notes -- and also the description and linking together of previously disparate sources. Data and content archives move beyond XML to description logic based semantic web standards which facilitate connect across media formats, documents, domains, and across archives leading to the need for community curation. Business models are still uncertain, being based on access and delivery of content for which alternatives are economically attractive.
Third stage is publishing based on (executable) knowledge-as-a-service. More than documents, more than passive semantic description, knowledge that is expressed through content, methods, data, and processes becomes modeled, managed, and enmeshed with research processes and processes which use the results of research. In this era, publishers with dominant positions in theory will find viable business models that trump competitors.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data.

Slides presented at the British and Irish Law Education and Technology Association (BILETA) 2018 conference. The topic is how to integrate teaching of Law and Computer Science to forward Law and Technology research, development, and exploitation.
Artificial intelligence has been a buzz word that is impacting every industry in the world. With the rise of such advanced technology, there will be always a question regarding its impact on our social life, environment and economy thus impacting all efforts exerted towards sustainable development. In the information era, enormous amounts of data have become available on hand to decision makers. Big data refers to datasets that are not only big, but also high in variety and velocity, which makes them difficult to handle using traditional tools and techniques. Due to the rapid growth of such data, solutions need to be studied and provided in order to handle and extract value and knowledge from these datasets for different industries and business operations. Numerous use cases have shown that AI can ensure an effective supply of information to citizens, users and customers in times of crisis. This paper aims to analyse some of the different methods and scenario which can be applied to AI and big data, as well as the opportunities provided by the application in various business operations and crisis management domains.

ADV Slides: What the Aspiring or New Data Scientist Needs to Know About the E...DATAVERSITY
Many data scientists are well grounded in creating accomplishment in the enterprise, but many come from outside – from academia, from PhD programs and research. They have the necessary technical skills, but it doesn’t count until their product gets to production and in use. The speaker recently helped a struggling data scientist understand his organization and how to create success in it. That turned into this presentation, because many new data scientists struggle with the complexities of an enterprise.
Data Architecture is foundational to an information-based operational environment. Without proper structure and efficiency in organization, data assets cannot be utilized to their full potential, which in turn harms bottom-line business value. When designed well and used effectively, however, a strong Data Architecture can be referenced to inform, clarify, understand, and resolve aspects of a variety of business problems commonly encountered in organizations.
The goal of this webinar is not to instruct you in being an outright Data Architect, but rather to enable you to envision a number of uses for Data Architectures that will maximize your organization’s competitive advantage. With that being said, we will:
Discuss Data Architecture’s guiding principles and best practices
Demonstrate how to utilize Data Architecture to address a broad variety of organizational challenges and support your overall business strategy
Illustrate how best to understand foundational Data Architecture concepts based on “The DAMA Guide to the Data Management Body of Knowledge” (DAMA DMBOK)

Basic income and women in an established gender-equal welfare state: Results ...BEYOND4.0
Olli Kangas & Minna Ylikännö
Debates on gendered effects of universal basic income (UBI) bifurcate into two opposing views. On one hand, UBI is seen as a strong incentive for women to stay at home and be permanently locked in their care responsibilities. On the other hand, UBI is seen as a device to increase women’s autonomy, fortify their capacity to act, and guarantee them individual income and income security. Put differently, UBI would either cement the traditional division of labour between genders and trap women at home, or it would be an empowering option for women. This type of discussion is relevant in countries with significant gender inequalities. In Finland, as in other Nordic countries, gender equality in both labour markets and families is better achieved than in most other countries. From this perspective, it is difficult to establish that the implementation of basic income would have a major impact on the position of women in these established gender-equal societies. In this study, we use survey data compiled in the context of the Finnish basic income experiment (2017–2018) to analyse the effects of basic income on employment and empowerment, with the focus on its gender effects. Our results indicate that while UBI did not affect employment in the two-year experiment and, it was positively associated with individual capacities and confidence in various aspects of life. However, the effects were universal and they did not differ between women and men. UBI is not a gender equality-related issue in the Nordic welfare states.
The impact of technological change on the content of jobs and accompanying skills is a central topic across disciplines. To date, ample research has directly linked the technological change to shifts in skills use; however, organisational change is rarely considered as an influencing factor. Based on a panel survey, this paper uses a Luhmannian approach to understand the relationship between technological change and organisational context. This theory is tested quantitatively and shows the importance of considering the working environment's nature when studying skills changes. The results show small effects by the technological change on changing skills use but larger effects by changes in the working environment. Recommendations for future research and practical implications are discussed.

• move the skills debates forward by linking the current debates
together (e.g. on polarization, upgrading and downgrading).
• Discuss the job-based approach and the task-based approach
• compare the gathered results with particular skills requirements
from ecosystems/regions (WP 4) and frontrunner companies (WP 8).

24. Skills debate – empirical results
EU from 1985 to 2014: Most EU countries either upgrading or polarisation:
• Ireland, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland: more or less upgrading since the
1970s
• Portugal: Some evidence of upgrading since 2011
• Germany: polarisation
• United Kingdom: Polarisation since 1990s
• Spain: polarisation since 2011
• Greece: polarisation trend
• Italy: downgrading (job creation at the bottom from 2011-2015 )
Sources: Warhurst et al. 2017, Gasparri et al. 2017
25. Skills debate – empirical results
Diversity across countries took place against a background of very
similar broad trends of structural change
• Deindustrialisation and dynamic service sector
had similar polarising effects everywhere
• Skill upgrading has occurred faster in more technological advanced
firms and industries (cf. Berman et al. 2017: 15)
• Manufacturing has mainly experienced a process of skills upgrading over the
last 15 years.
• In manufacturing, low skilled jobs are progressively automated in the process of
technological change (cf. Gasparri et al. 2017: 15)
26. Next Steps
• Defining potential data sources to quantify (most relevant) influence
factors
• Analysis of regional ecosystems and using skills related data for the
work package “Future Skills”
• Analysis of company strategies related data for the work package
“Future Skills”
• Desk research on employers´ requirements (demand side)
