Pre-Conference Course: Wearables Workshop: UX Essentials - Phillip LikensUXPA International
Let's go zero to wireframe with wearables!
Wearables can be tough to understand and design for, especially if you don’t have experience with the hardware. In one evening we’ll get you up to speed on wearable technology. We’ll talk about two trends, context and continuity, and focus on how those trends will impact the user experience of screen-based wearables. Then we’ll spend the rest of our time getting hands-on by wire framing a smart watch app.
In this workshop we will:
Explore the world of wearables, and hone in on smart watches.
Explore the challenges that come along with screen-based wearables - specifically context and continuity.
Get hands-on with smart watches - wireframing a smart watch app with feedback and discussion.
You’ll leave this workshop with the skill and knowledge you need to get started designing the UX for smart watches.
This presentation explains why charities should consider using Google Apps instead of Microsoft Office.
After years of working in IT for large public sector and voluntary organisations which had Microsoft environments, I came to the conclusion that many charities would be better off using Google Apps because they would:
- Make it easier for staff and volunteers to share information
- Support partnership working with other agencies
- Reduce the total cost of ownership
This is a version of the presentation I originally gave at the Evolve 2014 hosted by the National Council for Voluntary Organisations.
A presentation on the apps I use daily to create, consume and have fun. Also some updated statistics in the world of mobile and some thoughts on B2B mobile. Presented to the E3 Network at the 2011 E3 AGM in Budapest.

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.
