Business Models and Open Source Licenses in 2019: Can we all get along?Jeffrey Borek
The open source definition is over 20 years old. Cloudera and Hortonworks have completed their all-stock merger of their software companies. Major companies in the open source ecosystem are being snapped up by traditional IT companies. Seems like a good business model, yes? But Stephen would like to observe that despite these successes, there is NO open source business model.
Jeffrey would beg to differ! From data centers to the cloud, from self-driving cars to drones - open source software is everywhere. Major enterprise companies that are bottom-line driven are changing the way they participate in open source, starting to actively engage and contribute to open source projects - not just consume them as products. Having OS in your business model looks great, or does it?
Over the last year a major conflict has emerged between Cloud Platforms and VCs looking to make $$$ with open source.

Technologies, Places, Business Models for Open Design @ Pixelversity, Helsink...Massimo Menichinelli
The document discusses technologies, places, and business models for open design. It begins by describing various digital fabrication technologies like 3D printing, laser cutting, and CNC milling. It then discusses makerspaces, hacker spaces, and fab labs as places where open design projects can be made. Finally, it explores potential business models for open design like crowdfunding, selling services, and dual licensing of open and proprietary designs and software. The overall focus is on how designers can engage with both open technologies and business opportunities.
The document summarizes Massimo Menichinelli's presentation on open design. It discusses how open design refers to any design project that can be shared digitally, with a focus on product design. Open design projects use open licenses to facilitate sharing and collaboration. Examples discussed include OpenMoko, an open source mobile phone, and BugLabs. The presentation argues that open design needs tools and processes to better enable collaboration. It introduces Open P2P Design as a method for metadesigning open and peer-to-peer design systems and processes. An example workshop applying this method in Singapore is briefly described.
20151112 CITA BIM Gathering Keynote DublinLéon Berlo
Leon van Berlo discusses collaborative engineering using Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). Some key points:
- IFC allows sharing of building information models through a common data format, enabling collaboration without a "central model."
- Past studies found using reference models with IFC lowered BIM competence needs and choosing tools based on engineering skills rather than specific software was preferred.
- True collaboration requires understanding what data others need rather than focusing on centralized platforms or standardized BIM execution plans.
- Current BIM practices often work well without top-down policies, instead relying on proven bottom-up approaches and letting high-level users guide discussions.
Open design communities allow for collaboration on design projects. Open source software is developed collaboratively without hierarchy, based on reputation. Examples of open design include OpenMoko, an open source mobile phone, and RepRap 3D printers that can be built at home. As tools like 3D printing and laser cutting become more accessible, distributed manufacturing is growing through open design communities and platforms. For open design to reach its full potential, new collaborative tools, processes, and financial models are needed to better support designers, makers, and users.

Webcast Presentation: Be lean. Be agile. Work together with DevOps Services (...GRUC
This document provides information about how to connect with the Rational user community through various online channels, including the Rational user group website, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google+. It lists the URLs for joining discussions or following news on each of these platforms.
This document introduces the concept of open design. It provides examples of open design projects in various fields such as web design, fonts, architecture, and hardware. Open design refers to projects that can be shared digitally and compiled or manufactured locally. It emphasizes sharing, collaboration, and open licenses. True open design involves a community designing through an open process, not just a single designer publishing a file online. It requires a shift to "metadesign" where the community and process are open-ended.
Selecting the right framework is one of the most crucial decisions you have to make when you start a new digital product development project for your business. In that regard, Symfony is an effective choice. However, you also have to make sure that your development team leverages the appropriate tools.

ECPPM Keynote: don't forget about data consumptionLéon Berlo
Slides of the ECPPM Trondheim keynote titles "Don't forget about import".
This shows the future vision of buildingSMART standards and solutions, and the pathway to get from today's situation to that future.
20200903 The 2020 buildingSMART Data Dictionary prototype (bSDD)Léon Berlo
The document discusses buildingSMART's Data Dictionary (bSDD) Version 5 API. It provides a safe harbour statement noting forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. It lists reasons for a new bSDD as usability, new insights from use cases, and updated standards. It then discusses various aspects of bSDD including spatial structure, object types like buildings and classifications, the use of IFC and property sets, and hosting and using bSDD.

IFC needs to become more modulair (again). These slides present the first consensus on how to do that, and shares some questions that need to be answered.
Collaboration with BIM: Stop being efficient, start being effectiveLéon Berlo
This document discusses moving from being efficient to being effective in building information modeling (BIM) projects. It provides examples of highly detailed BIM projects using IFC data formats for modeling, quotations, rule checking, logistics, fire safety analysis, and simulations. Lessons learned include not letting the means become the goal, that data alone does not equal collaboration, and data is only useful when used effectively. The future of construction is predicted to have more available data, automation through robotics and niche applications, and a greater need for knowledge of both engineering and data. Organizations must learn to work effectively with increasingly complex technologies and changing processes rather than just focusing on efficiency.
GEO Desing + BIM Conference: Data sharing is not collaborationLéon Berlo
Shared data and BIM models are not the same as collaboration. A shared data model refers to creating agreements on how data will be standardized and shared, not shared databases or model instances. True collaboration requires each party to focus first on their own work and understanding what information others need from them, rather than assuming shared access to data leads automatically to collaboration. Technology like cloud computing and work sharing supports coordination but does not replace the need for professionals to bring their expertise and craftsmanship to cooperatively solve problems.
20181012 Collaborative Design and Engineering with IFCLéon Berlo
Collaborative Design and Engineering discusses the history and current practice of BIM collaboration and possible future directions. It notes that currently there is a split between policymakers who see BIM as a goal and practitioners who see it as a tool. The document advocates that mandating standards often lags practice and that collaboration is best achieved by focusing on stakeholders' actual needs rather than imposing top-down requirements. It provides examples of large successful collaborative BIM projects in the Netherlands that worked without formal standards by prioritizing data sharing through open standards.
This document discusses the differences and similarities between CityGML and BIM (Building Information Modeling) standards. Both use 3D primitives to represent building components but CityGML focuses on observable surfaces while BIM uses solid geometry. It describes an attempt called GEOBIM ADE to extend CityGML to include more BIM-level detail. However, the prototype had issues with geometry and file sizes and was not widely adopted. Current research still focuses more on geometry and visualization rather than practical applications.
This document discusses BIM bots, which are autonomous programs that can extract and apply knowledge from Building Information Modeling (BIM) data without human interaction. BIM bots have characteristics like running independently on their own servers, working automatically, and returning results without interference. Common uses of BIM bots include simulations, coordination, validation, and knowledge mining from BIM data. The document provides examples of existing BIM bots and implications like automating knowledge extraction and allowing for data flows between different bots during work.
FACILITATING THE BIM COORDINATOR WITH AUTOMATED DATA COMPLIANCE CHECKINGLéon Berlo
FACILITATING THE BIM COORDINATOR WITH AUTOMATED DATA COMPLIANCE CHECKING.
Presentatie voor de 'expersessie' tijdens de BuildingSMART Benelux workshop over de 'Informatie Levering specificatie'
2 juni 2016 te Ede
This document discusses the future of building information modeling (BIM) and the need to move beyond centralized BIM platforms and models. It argues that true integration will not come from getting all stakeholders onto a single "island" or platform, but rather from connecting specialized tools and data sources in a decentralized manner. The future of BIM lies in niche applications that can share data and interoperate to complete tasks, without requiring dependence on a single centralized system. This approach takes advantage of the fragmented nature of the industry and allows features from different sources to be combined.
CIB W78 - Collaborative engineering with IFC in the NetherlandsLéon Berlo
Paper presentation about the use of openBIM (IFC, BCF, etc) in the Netherlands. The presentations shows the process phases of a BIM project and the collaboration iteration cycles.
Paper is online at http://www.stumico.nl/wp-content/uploads/2015_CIB-W078_Collaborative_Engineering.pdf
This document discusses how bots can automate tasks in building information modeling (BIM) by taking advantage of open web APIs and data. It argues that individual bots providing niche applications can create a new market that is not dependent on any single platform. Bots could perform automated tasks by subscribing to events in the BIM data and being triggered when those events occur. Examples of potential BIM bots include clash detection bots, cost estimation bots, supplier bots, validation checkers, and more. The document advocates shifting away from separate "islands" of collaboration towards this more open ecosystem of interoperable bots.
BIM Show Live 2015 - Collaboration and IFC in the NetherlandsLéon Berlo
This document discusses collaborative design and engineering using Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) in the Netherlands. It describes how research found that having a central shared model is not necessary or preferable for collaboration. Instead, the concept of reference models where each party shares only what is needed for others to do their work is more effective. Examples show how different parties can export tailored IFC views from their models for coordination. National BIM guidelines have been developed that outline how to collaborate using discipline models and IFC data exchange without a single shared model.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
