NG 112 in the EU will provide a framework where multi-media content from citizens can be broadcast to Public Safety officials for better situational awareness of an emergent situation or condition. In addition to providing critical additional data points, persons with disabilities will be able to communicate in more ways including Text, Video as well as the traditional voice call. How that network can be built and the operational advantages are shown here with specific use cases.

NG911 will change how emergency calls will be handled and how Collaborative Conferencing will be a part of bridging people who need help with those that can provide help.
The appetite for mobility has never been greater. Driven in large part by the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) phenomenon and user devotion to smart- phones and tablets, this trend is motivating IT departments to increase their investment in wireless LAN (WLAN) technology. In doing so, enterprises seek to ensure that the user experience of their mobile workforce is seamless and that business applications are available anytime, anywhere, on any device.

Bitcoin and Blockchain Technology Explained: Not just Cryptocurrencies, Econo...Melanie Swan
The blockchain concept may be one of the most transformative ideas to impact the world since the Internet. It represents a new organizing paradigm for all activity and integrates humans and technology. Cryptocurrencies like bitcoin are merely one application of the blockchain concept. The blockchain is a public transaction ledger built in a network structure based on cryptographic principles so there does not need to be a centralized intermediary. Any kind of asset (art, car, home, financial contract) may be encoded into the blockchain and transacted, validated, or preserved in a much more efficient manner than at present including ideas, health data, financial assets, automobiles, and government documents. Blockchain technology applies well beyond cryptocurrencies, economics, and markets to all venues of human information processing, collaboration, and interaction including art, health, and literacy.
There are new and emerging opportunities for organisations in all sectors to create and deliver compelling services for their customers using the power of disruptive innovation. As organisations formulate their plans for the coming months, this paper aims to help business and public sector leaders understand the cultural and organisational challenges that are inevitably brought by the use of blockchain technologies, and provides them with the insights they need to overcome them.

The open letter I sent to Chairman Wheeler at the FCC and Commissioners Mignon, Rosenworcel, Pai and O'Reilly asking for action to be taken on Kari's Law.
The letters sent to the top 10 hotel chains in the US requesting information on how 9-1-1 calling is handled in their facilities as well as the plan to correct the issue if they are not compliant today. Address information has been redacted for privacy.
The Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies / Colorado Public Utilities Commission will be holding a workshop on December 11th. This document summarizes the Avaya response to 5 specific issues that they will be reviewing for additional requirements. These requirements are focused around MLTS E911 functionality specified in "Kari's Law" as passed in several States, and recently submitted to Congress by Congressman Gohmert of Texas.
The Avaya Smart Campus solution consists of the Avaya Aura or IP Office, ALGO SIP Endpoints and the Conveyant SENTRY Solution enabling situational awareness and notification during emergency events.
What can IT Administrators do today to get ready for the future and make use of NG911 right now. Much more than you think, and for surprisingly little investment. This is the Keynote Address I delivered in Niagra Falls NY this morning.
Safe Campus / Safe School for IP Office with Hunter Technologies in NJMark Fletcher, ENP
Hunter technologies is one of Avaya's go to partners for IP Office. Located in Wall NJ, they recently hosted an Avaya Technology Day where E911 SAfe Campus and Schools were featured.
Location accuracy is just not at acceptable levels. Uber knows what side of the street you are on, but 911 centers can't locate you and people die. The problem can be made better, and made better TODAY using simple to deply HTML5 and WebRTC technology that does NOT require a download, just a browser. Watch for more details on iLoc8 from Avaya.
Text to 911 PSAP Readiness as reported by the FCC on 04/27/15Mark Fletcher, ENP
PSAPs register their readiness with the FCC to receive text messages, and this starts the 6 month clock that carriers have to deliver text to 911. This chart shows counties where PSAPs have registered with the FCC.
In conjunction with Safe School Partners Algo Communications alerting devices and Conveyant SENTRY E911 notification solutions, Avaya presented the Safe School Solution at the Suffolk County ASSET conference on Long Island.
The National Fire Protection Association is requesting comments for the 2016 edition of NFPA 1221. their standard for the installation, maintenance and use of emergency services communications systems under TIA LOG 1171.
While AVAYA commends the NFPA for continuing action on MLTS enhancements, the current proposal requiring direct dial numbers on each device will add considerable expense, monthly recurring fees and be a burden to MLTS owner operators where other methods can be deployed at little to no cost that can provide even greater detail and situational awareness to local 1st responders within the facility, or to Public Safety officials upon arrival at the dispatchable address designated for the facility.
Fletch covers MLTS E911 issues that consultants should be aware of to deliver value to their customers. The various architectures, routing mechanisms and best practices are covered in this detailed presentation on E911 today and the progression into Next Generation 911 services.
AVAYA Safe School Solution as presented to Long Island School DistrictsMark Fletcher, ENP
Avaya presented the Safe School Solution with Long Island partner CSDNet. This solution, using DevConnect solutions from Algo and Conveyant provides an architecture that can improve school safety and emergency alerting during crisis situations.
UPDATED: On December 5th 2014, I had the honor of being the Keynote speaker for this years Colorado 9-1-1 Resource Center '9-1-1 Goes to Denver' event held at the Jefferson County Courts and Admin Building, in Golden, Colorado. I provided an update on Kari's Law and MLTS as well as an overview of location challenges and future technologies that will provide an Over The Top NG9-1-1 solution in today's environment.
Commercial Enterprise networks contain a treasure trove of valuable information about the endpoints they serve on their networks, profiles of users, critical environmental data points, and discrete geospatial references that include not only X and Y, but the elusive ‘Z’, or altitude that is critical in a multistory building. While this information is useful to the 911 Call Taker and enables them to make intelligent dispatch decisions, the real value of this data is to the First Responder who can correlate that in real-time with responders on the scene. NG9-1-1 ready Enterprise networks, NG9-1-1 ESInets at the State and local level, and the roll out of 1st Responder broadband connectivity through FirstNet will provide, for the first time in history, an intelligent, end-to-end connection between the citizens who need help, and the emergency responders that provide that help. Avaya’s Chief Architect for Worldwide Public Safety Solutions will demonstrate how simple existing Over The Top technology can provide that valuable content today over existing networks, and be radically improved upon once NG9-1-1 is implemented.
Mark Fletcher and Markus Bornheim from Avaya present the NG Emergency Services architecture in the US being applied to the European market to provide additional data around emergent incidents. Part of the new networks will be the addition of eCall and the additional data that vehicle telemetry will contribute. They are joined by Cathy McCormick from On Star who will be launching service in the EU in 2015 who discusses how the system will operate in the existing environment with BT and Public Safety Control Rooms.
Next Generation 9-1-1 Networks are real, and happening here as well as NG1-1-2 networks in the EU. Detailed situational awareness from the enterprise is ready to feed these new networks with additional data that they have never before seen. Public Safety solutions at the PSAP need to understand the value this new data stream will provide, and those providing technology need to embrace it.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.
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

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.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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:

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
