The document discusses innovation in India, specifically jugaad innovation. It defines innovation and differentiates it from creativity and invention. It then provides examples of innovation in India, including a solar water purifier, Mitticool fridge that requires no electricity, and a smart cane to help the visually impaired. The document also discusses blocks to innovation and concludes by defining jugaad innovation as finding low-cost solutions to problems in an intelligent way.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

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.

4. What is Innovation?
Innovation is the process of translating an idea or invention into a good or
service that creates value or for which customers will pay.
Basically an innovation is something that makes peoples live easier and
can easily fit into people’s daily lives…
“Pant ki zip se lekar pen ki nip
tak, sab innovation hai bhai..”
5. Innovation includes:
New technology.
New product line or segment.
A new method of production.
An improvement in the existing product.
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, IT INCLUDES AN
IDEA
8. How is an Invention different than an
Innovation?
In its purest sense, “Invention“ can be defined as the creation of a product
or introduction of a process for the first time. “Innovation,” on the other
hand, occurs if someone improves on or makes a significant contribution to
an existing product, process or service.
Discovery of wheel was an invention but improving and making a wheel
with spokes and tyres..basically making changes for a smoother ride..
9. Blocks for Innovation:
Step 1: Clarifying the challenge
Before you generate even one idea, make certain your innovation direction or
product development is aligned with your mission and relevant to it.
Step 2: Formulating the questions
Turn your challenge into a series of questions. Organize the questions you
develop in order from more general to more specific.
10. Step 3: Generating the ideas
Use the questions from Step 2 to generate ideas. A common mistake at this point is to minimize the
possibilities by judging ideas too soon.
Step 4: Analysing and synthesizing ideas
Once you have a lot of ideas, sort them into categories. Some ideas may be more emotional, technical,
absurd, workable or predictable. Place the ideas into buckets.
Step 5: Developing concepts
Build and extend your ideas a bit more. Put some flesh on those bones. Develop your best ideas into more
full-blown concepts.
Step 6: Testing and selecting concepts
Test out the concepts that remain to see if some are better than others. See how others feel about these
concepts.
Step 7: Communicating and advancing
Creating and developing your best product idea is one thing. How and where you communicate your best
idea is a whole other matter.
11. Innovation in India
A Solar Water Purifier: Another twist to the water purifier, this innovation by
Professor Vasant Natarajan, from the Department of Physics is low cost and does
not require membranes or electricity.
12. The Mitticool Fridge
This is super cool (pun unintended)!
Designed by Indian engineer Mansukh
Bhai Prajapati, the Mitticool fridge is
made of clay and requires zero
electricity. It can keep food fresh for up
to 5-6 days!
13. The Smart Cane…
Developed in an IIT Delhi lab by
Dr. Rohan Paul, the aim behind the
smart cane is to facilitate
movement for the visually
impaired. This device can identify
knee-height obstructions at a
distance of 3 metres, and is
available for Rs. 3000.
14. Affordable Lens to Give Vision to Cataract Patients
In a life-saving innovation by Professor G. Mohan Rao at the Department of Instrumentation in 2015,
many people who suffer from cataract are now able to see. The team developed economical
intraocular lenses (IOLs) in their labs that could be affordable for even poor patients.
Non-invasive Heart Condition Detector
A non-invasive device that can measure heart and lung, called the Fibre Bragg Grating Heart Beat
Device, was invented by S Asokan, Professor at Department of Instrumentation and Applied Physics
and his team.
15. THESE ARE JUST SOME
OF THE EXAMPLES OF
WHAT INNOVATION
LOOKS LIKES.. AND NOW
WE TAKE IT TO THE NEXT
LEVEL..
16. JUGAAD INNOVATION:
Jugaad (a word
taken from Hindi
which captures the
meaning of finding
a low-cost solution
to any problem in
an intelligent way)
is a new way to
think
constructively and
differently about
innovation and
strategy.
