In this first lecture we set the tone for the course and define the themes that we will be looking at. Technology is one of the major factors in change. There are other factors that transform societies but this is the one we will be focusing on. History has many examples of how companies fail to recognize new technology and find ways to dismiss it, only to find their market share drop and eventually they loose out. Why do executives of these companies fail?

The document discusses how innovation occurs through combining existing ideas and technologies in new ways, rather than through isolated flashes of genius. It notes that innovations build on previous generations of technology and are limited by the components that exist in the environment. Ideas emerge when the time is right due to various interconnected factors that make up the "adjacent possible." Collaboration, sharing ideas in cities and coffee houses, and serendipitous discoveries all contribute to the process by which innovations emerge over long periods of time rather than appearing fully formed.

Salim Ismail - Exponential Canada

SUCanadaSummit

This document discusses the exponential growth of technologies and their potential impacts. It makes three key points: 1. Many technologies are developing exponentially, with costs dropping sharply as capabilities increase. This will massively disrupt existing industries and business models. 2. The convergence of technologies like AI, robotics, biotech and others could lead to unprecedented changes in products, services and society. It may transform the very nature of work and businesses. 3. Countries and organizations need to prepare for this disruption by becoming more innovative, collaborative and by developing an "exponential mindset" to harness new opportunities and tackle large problems through breakthrough technologies.

L11 The Broadcast Century

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

The 20th Century was the century of broadcasting. In this century we as films, books, TV, long play records, cassettes, CDs, DVD etc. The all had few things in common: they were one-way medium, a broadcast from one to many. Producers were limited and became gatekeepers of content. Somebody selected the films to show in theaters, movies to watch on TV etc. The 20th century was the time of movie stars and pop stars. It turns out all these mediums have one other thing in common: they are based on a model of scarcity, i.e. program directors have to choose the program for you, since there are only finite number of channels and screens. There are only finite space of shelfs for CDs in store. So we needed pop starts. The many consumers had to listen to the same few albums. With the Internet in the 21st century this model breaks down. We move from the economic model of scarcity to the economic model of abundance. This changes the game completely. In this lecture we will explore this transformation.

L08 Becoming Invisible

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

In the early days of product development, the technology is inferior and lacking in performance. The focus is very much on the technology itself. The users are enthusiast who like the idea of the product, find use for it, and except the lack of performance. Then as the product becomes more mature, other factors become important, such as price, design, features, portability. The product moves from being a technology to become a consumer item, and even a commodity. In this lecture we explore the change from technology focus to consumer focus, and look at why people stand in line overnight to buy the latest gadgets.

L10 The Innovator's Dilemma

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

One of the great irony of successful companies is how easily they can fail. New companies are founded to take advantage of some new technology. They become highly successful and but when the technology shifts, something new comes along, they are unable to adapt and fail. This is the innovator’s dilemma. Then there are companies that manage to survive. For example, Kodak survived two platform shift, only til fail the third. IBM has survived over 100 years. What do successful companies do differently?

L09 Disruptive Technology

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

History has many examples of great innovators who had difficult time convincing their contemporaries of new technology. Even incumbent and powerful companies regarded new technologies as inferior and dismissed it as "toys". Then when disruptive technologies take off they often are overhyped and can cause bubbles like the Internet bubble of the late 1990s. In this lecture we look at some examples of disruptive technologies and the impact they had. We look at the The Disruptive Innovation Theory by Harvard Professor Clayton Christensen.

Mobile augmented reality is maturing from early novelty applications to more practical uses. Current AR viewing is through mobile phones and the Nintendo 3DS, but future applications may be projected or wearable. AR embeds computer graphics in the real world using geolocation, markers, or natural features. Emerging applications include enhancing print media, providing information for museums and events, and creating visualization tools. The mobile AR market is projected to grow significantly in coming years as the technology converges on smartphones and platforms mature.

Technology And Products

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

The document discusses various topics related to technology including its definition, how it changes over time through gradual improvements and disruptions, its adoption and diffusion among different types of customers, and examples of technologies that were once dismissed but later became widely adopted. In particular, it notes that technology revolutions can be nearly invisible at first but obvious in hindsight, and that while technological changes may be relatively easy, the accompanying social and cultural changes are more difficult.

This document discusses the need for enterprise transformation in response to changing technology and business environments. It argues that networks and applications are colliding, forcing fundamental changes to how businesses operate. The document notes that those who adapt and transform will survive, while those who remain inflexible will perish, as shown by the examples of Apple overtaking Blackberry. It stresses that transformation requires assessing needs, designing roadmaps aligned with strategies, and developing business cases to fund and manage implementation of new technologies and ways of working.

Health & Wellness insight

Fjord

This document discusses digital transformation in health and wellness. It notes challenges like an aging population, lifestyle diseases, and changing needs over a lifetime. Large digital trends are enabling more data capture through sensors and devices. This creates opportunities for proactive health management but also risks like data ownership and a growing gap between patients and healthcare providers. New digital technologies are transforming how people monitor and understand their health and wellness.

Mobile Workplace Risks

Parag Deodhar

Parag Deodhar presented on securing mobile workplaces at the Enterprise Mobility Summit on May 9th, 2012 in Bengaluru. He discussed how mobility is changing how IT operates as data moves outside of corporate networks. This crossing of the "Lakshman Rekha" or corporate firewall poses security risks. He highlighted issues with bring your own device policies including difficulty securing and managing personal devices on the network. Deodhar argued that organizations need a mobile enterprise strategy including device management, updated security policies, training, and enforcement mechanisms to balance security and productivity in an increasingly mobile workplace.

New Technology Summer 2020 Course Introduction

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

L01 Introduction

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

Technology is one of the factors of change. When new disruptive technology is introduced, it can change industries. We have many examples of that and will start this journey it one of the most important innovation that has come in our lifetimes, the smartphone. We will explore the impact of the smartphone and the fate of existing companies at the time when iPhone, the first smartphone as we know them, was introduced to the world. We will also look at other examples from history. Then we look at the broader picture, past industrial revolutions and the one that we are experiencing now, the fourth industrial revolution. Specifically we look briefly at the technologies that fuel this revolution, for example artificial intelligence, robotics, drones, internet of things and more.

L23 Robotics and Drones

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

This document summarizes a lecture on robotics and drones. It discusses the history of robots dating back to ancient times. It also covers modern industrial robots, robotic developments in the 21st century including robots that can see, hear and sense. The document outlines Isaac Asimov's three laws of robotics. It discusses self-driving cars and their levels of automation. Finally, it covers unmanned aerial vehicles including military drones and delivery drones, and concludes that the robot revolution has only just begun.

L22 Augmented and Virtual Reality

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

The normal interaction with computers is with keyboard and a mouse. For display a rectangular somewhat small screen is used with 2D windowing systems. The mouse was invented more the 40 years ago and has been for 20 years dominant input. Now we are seeing new types of input devices. Multi-touch adds new dimensions and new applications. Natural user interfaces or gesture interfaces where people point to drag objects. Computers are also beginning to recognize facial expressions of people, so it knows if you are smiling. Voice and natural language understanding is getting to a usable stage. All this calls all types of new applications. Displays are getting bigger. What if any surface was a screen? If you could spray the wall with screen? Or have you phone project images to the wall. This lectures explores some of these new types of interactions with computers and software. It makes the old mouse look old.

L20 Personalised World

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

Local is the Lo in SoLoMo, the buzz word. Local is not only about location, it's also about your digital track record. Over 70% of Netflix users watch the films recommend. Mining data to understand people's behaviour is getting to be a huge and valuable business. Advertisers see opportunities in getting direct to their target groups. Predictive intelligence is also about where you will be at some time in the future, and where somebody you know will be. It turns out that Facebook and Google know you better than you think you know yourself. The world is about to get really scary.

L19 Network Platforms

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

Over two billion people signed up for Facebook. This site the most used site for people when using the Internet. People are not watching TV so much anymore - they using Facebook, Youtube and Netflix and number of popular web sites. Some people denote their time working for others online. What drives people to write an article on Wikipedia? They don´t get paid. Companies are enlisting people to help with innovations and sites such as Galaxy Zoo ask people to help identifying images. And why do people have to film themselves singing when they cannot sing and post the video on Youtube? In this lecture we talk about how people are using the web to interact in new ways, and doing stuff.

L18 Big Data and Analytics

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

With the computer revolution vast amount of digital data has become available. With the Internet and smart connected product, the data is growing exponentially. It is estimated that every year, more data is generated than all history prior. And this has repeated over several years. With all this data, it becomes a platform for something new of its own. In this lecture, we look at what big data is and look at several examples of how to use data. There are many well-know algorithms to analyse data, like clustering and machine learning.

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

After the computing industry got started, a new problem quickly emerged. How do you operate this machines and how to you program them. The development of operating systems was relatively slow compared to the advances in hardware. First system were primitive but slowly got better as demand for computing power increased. The ideas of the Graphical User Interfaces or GUI (Gooey) go back to Doug Engelbarts Demo of the Century. However, this did not have much impact on the computer industry. One company though, Xerox, a photocopy company explored these ideas with Palo Alto Park. Steve Jobs of Apple and Bill Gates of Microsoft took notice and Apple introduced first Apple Lisa and the Macintosh. In this lecture on we look so lessons for the development of software, and see how our business theories apply. In this lecture on we look so lessons for the development of algorithms or software, and see how our business theories apply. In the second part we look at where software is going, namely Artificial Intelligence. Resent developments in AI are causing an AI boom and new AI application are coming all the time. We look at machine learning and deep learning to get an understanding of the current trends.

L16 Internet of Things

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

We are currently living in times of great transformation. We have over the last couple of decade seen the Internet become the most powerful disrupting force in the world, connecting everyone and transforming businesses. Now everyday objects - things we use are getting smart with sensors and software. And they are connecting. What does this mean? We will see the world become alive. Cars will talk to road sensors that talk to systems that guide traffic. Plants will talk to weather systems that talk to scientists that research climate change. Farming fields will talk to the farming system that talks to robots that do fertilising and harvesting. Home appliances like refrigerators, ovens, coffee machines and microwaves ovens will talk to the home food and cooking system that will inform the store that you are running out butter, cheese, laundry detergent and coffee beans, which will inform the robot driver to get this to your house after consulting your calendar upon when someone is at home. In this lecture we explore the Internet of Things, IoT.

L14 From the Internet to Blockchain

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

The Internet grew out of US efforts to build the ARPANET, a network of peer computers built during the cold war. The two major players were military and academia. The network was simple and required no efforts for security or social responsibility. The early Internet community was mainly highly educated and respectable scientist. In the early 1990s the World Wide Web, a hypertext system is introduced, and soon browsers start to appear, leading the commercialization of Net. New businesses emerge and a technology boom known as the dot-com era. The network, now over 40, is being stretched. Problems such as spam, viruses, antisocial behaviour, and demands for more content are prompting reinvention of the Net and threatening its neutrality. Add to this government efforts to regulate and limit the network. In this lecture we look at the Internet and the impact of the network. We will also look at the future of the Internet.

L14 The Mobile Revolution

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

- Mobile phones are now the most common device in the world, with over 8.5 billion connections globally as of 2017. - The development of mobile phones was enabled by earlier innovations in electromagnetism and radio in the late 19th century, but mobile phones did not become practical until the 1980s with the invention of the microchip. - Mobile technology has advanced through generations from analog 1G networks in the 1980s, to digital 2G networks in the 1990s incorporating texting, and 3G packet switched networks in the 2000s enabling more data and applications.

New Technology 2019 L13 Rise of the Machine

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

Did you know that the term "Computer" once meant a profession? And what did people or computers actually do? They computed mathematical problems. Some problems were tedious and error prone. And it is not surprising that people started to develop machines to aid in the effort. The first mechanical computers were actually created to get rid of errors in human computation. Then came tabulating machines and cash registers. It was not until telephone companies were well established that computing machines became practical. First computers were huge mainframes, but soon minicomputers like DEC’s PDP started to appear. The transistor was introduced in 1947, but its usefulness was not truly realized until in 1958 when the integrated circuit was invented. This led to the invention of the microprocessor. Intel, in 1971, marketed the 4004 – and the personal computer revolution started. One of the first Personal Computers was MITS’ Altair. This was a simple device and soon others saw the opportunities. In this lecture we start our coverage of computing and look at some of the early machines and the impact they had.

L12 digital transformation

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

Software is changing the way traditional business operate. People now have smartphones in their pockets - a supercomputer that is 25,000 times more powerful and the minicomputers of the 1960s. This is changing people's behaviour and how people shop and use services. The organisational structure created in the 20th century cannot survive when new digital solution are being offered. Software is changing the way traditional business operate. People now have smartphones in their pockets - a supercomputer that is 25,000 times more powerful and the minicomputers of the 1960s. This is changing people's behaviour and how people shop and use services. The organisational structure created in the 20th century cannot survive when new digital solution are being offered. The hierarchical structure of these established companies assumes high coordination cost due to human activity. But when the coordination cost drops The organisational structure that companies in the 20th century established was based on the fact that employees needed to do all the work. The coordination cost was high due to the effort and cost of employees, housing etc. Now we have software that can do this for use and the coordination cost drops to close-to-zero. Another thing is that things become free. Consider Flickr. Anybody can sign up and use the service for free. Only a fraction of the users get pro account and pay. How can Flickr make money on that? It turns out that services like this can. Many businesses make money by giving things away. How can that possibly work? The music business has suffered severely with digital distribution of content. Should musicians put all their songs on YouTube? What is the future business model for music?

L09 Technological Revolutions

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

Technology evolves in big waves that we call revolutions. The first revolution was the Industrial revolution that started in Britain in 1771. Since than we have see more revolutions come and how we are in the fifth. These revolutions follow a similar path. First there is an installation period where the new technologies are installed and deployed, creating wealth to those who were are the right place at the right time. This is followed by a frenzy, where financial markets wants to be apart. The there is crash and turning point, followed by synergy, a golden age. In 1908, a new technological revolution started. It was the Age of Oil and Automobile. The technology trigger was Henry Ford´s new assembly line technique that allowed the manufacturing of standardized, low cost automobile. This created the car industry and other manufacturing companies. This also created demand for gas thus creating the oil industry. During the Roaring Twenties the stock prices rose to new levels, until a crash and the Great Depression. Only after World War II, came a turnaround point followed by a golden age in the post-war boom. In this lecture we look at a framework for understanding technological revolutions. There revolutions completely change societies and replace the old with new technologies. We will explore how these revolutions take place. We should now be in the golden age phase. We also look at generations.

L06 Diffusion of Innovation

Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson

This document summarizes a lecture about the diffusion of innovation. It discusses how new ideas are developed through collaboration and exchange. It also discusses how innovations diffuse slowly at first, gaining momentum over time as they are adopted by pragmatists and conservatives seeking convenient solutions. The rate of adoption follows an S-curve, with innovators and enthusiasts driving early adoption and the mass market adopting later. Customers' motivations for adoption change over time, initially valuing the innovation's benefits and later valuing its functionality. Factors like network effects, convenience, and compatibility influence adoption rates.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...

SOFTTECHHUB

The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing. One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing

Aftab Hussain

Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process. In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds. - These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan 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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf

Paige Cruz

Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack. While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack. I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
