CUbRIK tutorial at ICWE 2013: part 1 Introduction to Human Computation
2013, July 8
Part 1 of the tutorial illustrated at ICWE 2013, by Alessandro Bozzon (Delft University of Technology)
Crowdsourcing and human computation are novel disciplines that enable the design of computation processes that include humans as actors for task execution. In such a context, Games With a Purpose are an effective mean to channel, in a constructive manner, the human brainpower required to perform tasks that computers are unable to perform, through computer games. This tutorial introduces the core research questions in human computation, with a specific focus on the techniques required to manage structured and unstructured data. The second half of the tutorial delves into the field of game design for serious task, with an emphasis on games for human computation purposes. Our goal is to provide participants with a wide, yet complete overview of the research landscape; we aim at giving practitioners a solid understanding of the best practices in designing and running human computation tasks, while providing academics with solid references and, possibly, promising ideas for their future research activities.
The cambrian cloud introduction: major trends research notes
The document discusses how the technology industry is undergoing a major shift towards a "third platform" of innovation built on mobile devices, cloud services, big data analytics, and social technologies. This shift represents an "inflection point" where the old model becomes obsolete and a new model of innovation emerges. The convergence of trends like declining experimentation costs, social networks, crowd-sourcing, big data, and artificial intelligence are enabling more people to collaborate and innovate in new ways, representing a major opportunity for nonlinear growth at the start of this inflection point.

Management information system
Management information system (MIS) is a computer-based system that provides managers with tools to organize, evaluate, and efficiently run their departments. It provides information needed to effectively manage organizations. As businesses and transactions grew more complex, managers needed a single system with all information to make decisions. MIS involves people, technology, and information working together toward organizational objectives. There have been five eras of MIS evolution corresponding to computing technology advances from mainframes to personal computers to client/server networks to enterprise computing and now cloud computing.

Connected nation on federal policy for mn 2012
The document summarizes recent changes to federal broadband policy and their potential impact on Minnesota. Key points:
1) The Federal Universal Service Fund is shifting subsidies from voice to broadband, with the Connect America Fund providing $10.9 million to CenturyLink to expand broadband in underserved areas of Minnesota.
2) No wireless providers bid to expand broadband in eligible unserved areas of Minnesota through the Mobility Fund Phase I, despite Connect Minnesota identifying more unserved areas.
3) The creation of FirstNet provides an opportunity to leverage public safety broadband networks to expand rural broadband in Minnesota, but building out a statewide network will be challenging without local partnerships and infrastructure sharing.
Diane smith bb taskforce presentation - 11 13 12
The document discusses the power of mobile broadband and its growth. It notes that the U.S. leads in mobile broadband evolution and LTE adoption. Mobile data usage among U.S. consumers rose 89% in the past year as people connect more through data than voice. Traditionally underserved communities like Hispanics and African Americans have higher smartphone adoption rates and do more internet browsing on mobile. However, increasing mobile data traffic risks exceeding available spectrum by 2014 unless more spectrum is freed up or innovation continues.

Editor's Notes
- In 1946, AT&T made the first mobile phone call. The phone gear weighed 80 lbs and was mounted in a truck.
- 66 years later, nearly everyone in America, even most of the kids, have a mobile phone. But for all practical purposes, the basic talking and texting functionality was perfected in the late 1990s.
- 88% of all American adults own a phone
- 66% of young adults 16-29, and 68% of those living in households making > $75k
- But on hindsight, this shouldn’t be so surprising. The newest smartphones containmore computing power than all of NASA in 1969. The military in the early ‘90’s was still paying $15M for a supercomputer that had less power.
- Just fast internet on the go, right?
