This document proposes a new method for developing true partnerships between universities and businesses. It describes a program run by students at the Lohja Business Lab where they are responsible for contacting local companies, promoting collaboration opportunities, and documenting the partnerships in a customer relationship management database. This systematic approach to managing partnerships provides benefits like improved experiential learning for students, deeper long-term relationships with companies, and accumulated knowledge that can be used to inform future projects.

Big Data at Riot Games – Using Hadoop to Understand Player Experience - Stamp...StampedeCon
At the StampedeCon 2013 Big Data conference in St. Louis, Riot Games discussed Using Hadoop to Understand and Improve Player Experience. Riot Games aims to be the most player-focused game company in the world. To fulfill that mission, it’s vital we develop a deep, detailed understanding of players’ experiences. This is particularly challenging since our debut title, League of Legends, is one of the most played video games in the world, with more than 32 million active monthly players across the globe. In this presentation, we’ll discuss several use cases where we sought to understand and improve the player experience, the challenges we faced to solve those use cases, and the big data infrastructure that supports our capability to provide continued insight.
Would you ever play an online game if you were not able to communicate with your teammates? Isn’t it fun if you can make new friends, arrange pre-made games and celebrate your victories with people you like to play with?
Riot Games’ League of Legends handles millions of online players at any given time. Each chat server is responsible for routing over 1 billion real time events a day. In order to support the overwhelming user base and be prepared future growth, as well as pave the road for the upcoming features, chat infrastructure had to be designed and built with the utmost care, so that it would never fail the players.
In this talk I would like to present how we achieved linear scalability, improved the overall fault tolerance, created a framework for real time code upgrades and got ready for the new features we want to ship. I will also discuss in detail why we chose to use Erlang as a foundation for the system, and why we migrated our data from MySQL to Riak.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

4. How are partnerships managed?
1. Relationship management is a strategic concern. It is related
to long-term competitive advantage, and is a top management
issue.
2. The ultimate purpose of relationship management is to
increase value for the organisation, and its stakeholders.
3. The process of relationship management is about identifying
key “customers” (such as partners), and developing the
relationships with them.
4. Systematic building of relationships results in various
benefits, such as profitability, retention, and customer
(partner) satisfaction.
5. All of this depends on documenting and sharing knowledge
about the key “customers”.
(Adapted from Payne & Frow 2005)
24.11.2012
5. Problems…
A university is not a business:
• autonomy of organisational units and individuals
• internal competition
• government-funding and non-profit operation
Who OWNS the partner?
• individual, research unit, faculty?
• more rarely are they common to the entire
school.
24.11.2012
6. Case Lohja
• Lohja Yrityslabra “Business Lab” has started
managing a partnership program for local businesses
• The Business Lab is a blended learning environment
that coordinates learning projects for the students
• …and knowledge-producing commissions for local
clients
• Represents expansive learning: tasks are complex,
with no set correct outcome, and there are several
participants making the learning collective
24.11.2012
7. Skills
Participating students learn skills:
• project management and
• customer relationship management
while coordinating the projects. At the same time,
students learn to expand their knowledge in
theoretical issues, such as marketing, strategy or e-
commerce, when they collect data and write
reports for the commissioning companies.
24.11.2012
8. A partnership program
As partner organisations are vital for this type of operation,
the Lab has initiated a partnership program to manage local
partners itself. Much like a “real world” customer
relationship program, the Business Lab hosts a database of
potential and current partner organisations. These
partnerships can be used as the learning context for any
relevant course in the entire Lohja unit.
Since the partnerships are systematically nurtured, over time
cooperation will become more strategic. For example, future
development projects with the aforementioned company
might focus on its e-commerce strategy – something that
would not be possible without a successful history of working
together.
24.11.2012
9. Students run the program
business students are responsible for:
1. Contacting the “customers”, i.e. local companies and
organisations who are potential partners for the Lab,
2. “Selling the service”, i.e. introducing the partners to the
idea of continuous cooperation with the Lab,
3. And following up on the “customers”, i.e. keeping in
touch to make sure mutual needs are covered.
4. Also, as in a “real” CRM, the students document
everything in the database. Hence, when one student
graduates and a new one enters the Lab, the partner
history stays available. As a consequence, knowledge
accumulates, is shared and future projects can build on
previous ones.
24.11.2012
10. Benefits
• improved learning for the students: first hand
experience in customer relationship management
• deeper partnerships, as relationships evolve over
time
• The partnership program does not assume or
require individual educators to relinquish their
“private” partners. Rather, it offers an
alternative route for cooperation, parallel to the
more conventional method of maintaining
partnerships.
