Six months ago, Confluence Cloud’s reliability for enterprise tenants was at an all time low. This is the story of how we turned things around - starting with the fundamentals of measuring everything, re-defining metrics to be insightful of actual customer pain, auditing end-to-end resilience. The most challenging part however, has been building the reliability habit. Beyond just devops best practices, this means empowering teams to own product stability front and center through practices and tools.

Leanconf 2014 Keynote - the One Metric to Rule Them All By Ash MauryaLeanconf
Companies drown in a sea of numbers. Google Analytics alone spits out over a thousand numbers. Add to that a few other analytics tools and your own homegrown dashboard and you know what I mean.
We don’t need more numbers, but actionable metrics.
In this talk, I’m going to show you how to measure the progress of any business using just a handful of metrics. And then I’m going to distill these metrics even further into a single macro metric that drives every business
Profit prediction presentation gabe kwakyiGabe Kwakyi
Today's video is a presentation given at App Growth Summit SF.
In it, I detail how to use Excel's scatter plot trend line equations as a framework to predict whether your marketing activities are on track to turn a profit.
Also included:
* the difference between metrics and KPIs (don't use metrics to predict profitability)
* which KPIs are best used as predictors (they're not all treated equal for every business model)
* the differences between excel trend lines and which to use (hint: for most folks it's best to stick with more simple equations like linear)
* assessing accuracy using the mean absolute percentage error (it's a better measure of predictive power of your model than R-squared)
* caveats of using a prediction model: where it can break down (there are loads of reasons)
* 3 other examples of how to apply the framework:
> Predicting CPI
> Long-term retention rate
> Assessing whether week 0 ROAS is the best predictor

Maximizing Trading Partner Performance and Collaboration in the Networked Eco...SAP Ariba
Organizations can no longer afford to be content with focusing on optimizing internal operations (inside-out view). Instead, they need to focus on optimizing the entire value chain (outside-in view) and extend collaboration beyond the four walls.
Participate in this session and discover how best-in-class companies leverage inter-enterprise collaboration as a means to mitigate supply chain risk and drive revenue growth and profitability. You'll hear how leading Ariba customers have built a collaborative sourcing and supplier management program that leverages world-class web-based technology and tools, as well as structured processes, expertise, and a networked community.
All the technical journals are abuzz with the changes to ISO 9001:2015. One significant paradigm shift is to a risk based management approach. Most companies already apply risk-based thinking in their planning process for organizational management. This article will take a very narrowly focused approach to a key aspect of Risk management: Calibration.
Are you frustrated by not being able to make use of all the data you’ve collected? Do you run for cover every time you hear complaints about taking the time to do incident reports and hazard analysis? Do you struggle to use Job Hazard data to improve incident rates?

Agile metrics can be used to the advantage or the detriment of teams and an organisation’s Agile success. This session looks at several of the core Agile metrics used to measure success to help you understand what success looks like, why the metric is desirable and what the metrics can tell us.
Understanding why we want these metrics is critical to capturing something of value, rather than just doing 'because'. What will leaders and decision makers do with these metrics? What value do they add?
Steve will also dive into the negative impacts of some of the Agile metrics we are sometimes forced to capture, how chasing velocity leads to gaming the system etc. He’ll look at bad metrics such as the seven deadly sins of Agile measurement and how to avoid them in your enterprise.
There are many approaches to Data Quality Management today. This is an introduction to an approach we have developed predominantly within Financial Services which we believe yields fast, cost effective results for our clients.

HOW TO MEASURE WHAT HACKERS KNOW ABOUT YOUNormShield
Companies invest in cyber security to protect themselves against cyber attacks. They get cyber security products/solutions from SIEM solutions, SOC services to Firewalls, IPS/IDS devices, etc. to detect and remediate cyber incidents. With all these security measures, how safe are you? Is there a way to measure it? Or in other words, is it possible to assess your cyber risk? Sure once-a-year penetration tests and risk assessments through internal audits give some answers, but an outside-in approach with easyto-understand monitoring helps you understand your cyber security posture. In order to do that, you need to see what hackers see…
Review on 3rd-party Cyber Risk Assessment and Scoring ToolsNormShield
A recent survey conducted by Ponemon Institute reveals that 56% of companies have experienced a 3rd-party breach in 2017, which is an increase of 7% compared to previous year. Another survey conducted by Deloitte in 2016 was more depressive, reporting that 87% of organizations have experienced a disruptive incident with third-parties in the last 2-3 years. Another research in 2016, sourced by Soha Systems, reports that 63% of all breaches were related to third parties. The findings in these studies confirm that third-party cyber risk assessment is a must. The goal of this paper is to provide a review on third-party cyber risk assessment/scoring tools that automatically gather and analyze open source data and provide a risk score/security rating.

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.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
