The document discusses research into smartphone owners' use of mobile technologies like NFC, QR codes, barcodes and augmented reality. It found that while many are aware of these technologies, actual usage is much lower, and awareness of NFC's capabilities is especially low. The research suggests education from mobile providers, retailers and manufacturers could increase understanding and adoption of NFC technologies for mobile payments, ticketing, coupons and interacting with advertisements. Brands that implement these technologies are seen as innovative leaders by smartphone users.
The End of TV as We Know It & The Birth of TransmediaOgilvy
Doug Scott, President, OgilvyEntertainment and Matt Doherty, Transmedia Architect, Ogilvy & Mather Worldwide presented The End of TV as We Know It & The Birth of Transmedia at the 21st Century Storytelling Conference: Content, Context and Conversations sponsored by Microsoft, Ogilvy & BrainJuicer on July 31, 2012 in Chicago.
Throughout history, we have told stories. Stories are what connect us across geographies, cultures and experiences; stories demonstrate that we share the same hope, dreams, fears, challenges and desires. Today's complex, digtally connected consumer universe makes brand storytelling more challenging, but also creates opportunities for brands to tell their stories in new ways.
Doug Scott and Matt Doherty discussed how the idea of TV might be a thing of the past, but the stories that drive our content will always be our constant. Our variable? Telling. Telling has evolved due to the primary role of digital in our lives and disruptive innovation which has given us the ability to craft transmedia experiences. Transmedia has brought about a new set of creative tools and narratives that are rooted in content, formed by context and crossed by all things culture. Are you a story? Or are you a teller?

Ubiquitous connectivity is constantly transforming the mobile landscape. Bigger, Hi-Resolution Displays, Larger Memories, Faster Processors have helped increase device and network usage. Higher bandwidth for mobile devices has opened up new possibilities in spaces ranging from digital media to mobile health. All of this has had a huge impact in consumer behavior. Consumers are starting to ask for anywhere, anytime experience today and people don’t want to be tied down to devices, platforms or physical spaces when it comes to storing, accessing and consuming data – user experience has come to the fore-front. The session will address the following:
The evolution of devices, mobile applications and the cloud
Making better use of the data overload The cloud as the backbone for the ‘Internet of Things’
Creating a Seamless, Coherent and Integrated User Experience across Devices & Platforms

2013 brings about tremendous change in technology, and consumer behavior. Digital strategists and designers must understand the pros and cons of many new tactical decisions they'll make, this year.
Brian Vella, MD, DTDigital, and Corinne Wilson, Digital Marketing Manager, Honda Australia, explore how successful ecommerce appeals to both our emotional and rational sides.
"Unlocking Network Potential: Creating Value for Service Providers, Application Developers and
Enterprise Users" presented at the Belgian Broadband Platform seminar in Brussels, November 2011
In a new COVID-19 world, what do consumers think, feel and do with regards to the OOH space? And what is their perception of brands currently using OOH? We aimed to find.
“The Mobility Mindset”, a new research study conducted by Posterscope, has revealed that almost two-thirds of people are feeling more appreciative of their local community and have a heightened emotional connection to their out of home environment since the pandemic, and this is having a “knock on” effect on noticeability and positivity towards OOH advertising.
Research was conducted by Dipsticks Research Group using its online panel, Panelbase, amongst 1,025 nationally representative adults aged 18-55. Fieldwork took place from Thursday 24th to Sunday 27th September, directly after the new national measures were introduced on September 24th.
Now we are a few months into the Government’s recovery strategy, we are fully aware that our time at play will not be returning to the way it was for some time yet.
Much like other parts of Europe, we have seen a staggered re-opening of shops, leisure and entertainment venues over the last couple of months, with recent announcements from the UK Government further relaxing lockdown restrictions.
This piece ‘Playing Safe' looks at the current situation and that of the near future of key areas of play; food, drinking and socialising, street parties, festivals and sporting events, and how OOH can be used in the most effective way to reach people during their leisure time.
Posterscope's piece Working out the Wold of Work looks into the changing face of work now and in the near future as a result of Covid-19. From regional differences working from home, mobility trends, new behavioral patterns , and what this means for Out of Home.
In Posterscope's Audience and Brands Head Out of Home we look at the increase in audience mobility (now 70.8 versus pre-Covid baseline of 100), the effect on retail as people flock back to the shops, and the automotive market. And we take a look at how OOH is perfectly placed to help brands capitalise on this moment.
Psi global ooh predictions post covid19Posterscope
With the sharp adoption of new technologies blurring the balance between an increasingly virtual way of living, how will the way we navigate the world change in the new normal? PSI, outline their predictions for travel and the out of home ( OOH) industry.
Since the Government published its Coronavirus recovery strategy, we have been moving quickly through the relaxation of lockdown in ‘steps’ and are now celebrating the large milestone at which non-essential businesses are permitted to reopen, if they can become “Covid Secure”. Now at Step 2, it is starting to feel like the return to normality of sorts, albeit with one-way systems, queues to enter shops and Perspex screens.
But how do we expect the high street and retailers to fare? what role will local communities play in the near future? and how will the role and behaviours that brands have taken during the pandemic affect consumer behaviour?
Posterscope’s latest article ‘All Hail Retail’ looks at SHOP in the NEAR, focusing on all these questions along with the role OOH can play in reaching these shoppers in the right locations in a dynamic, agile and relevant way.
There is no doubt that shopping as we know it, will remain changed for some time yet. Appetite is of course there; we will simply see retailers adapting and evolving to ensure customer safety.
One thing for certain, is that while there will be both winners and losers on the high street, more importantly, there will be opportunities for new businesses to develop and succeed – let’s not forget that after crisis follows a period of rapid innovation… and so we should be positive in expecting new businesses, new approaches, and new experiences on our High Streets.
To help provide a picture of people's return to the broader OOH space, Posterscope has collaborated with our mobile data partner Three UK, to analyse every postcode sector up and down the country. Last week’s mobility index was 66.9 up from 65.7 the previous week, versus the pre-Covid baseline of 100
The OOH industry is governed by human movement, and human movement is the touch-paper of global pandemics. Where it goes, so viruses go too. We find ourselves in a new and likely forever-changed world of human movement, meaning OOH must evolve to remain relevant.
To help provide a headline picture of the return of audiences into the broader OOH space, we have collaborated with our telecoms data partner Three mobile, to analyse every postcode sector up and down the country to understand the journeys people are taking to supermarkets, retail areas or trips on major roads – providing Posterscope with the most detailed understanding of mobility in the UK, and with no ‘lag’ time.
Flexibility agility relevancy will be key ingredients in post lockdown advert...Posterscope
Reflecting and respecting the mood of the country has been a key theme for advertisers during this Pandemic, with the brands that have, seeing their work shared and celebrated. What happen next with lock-down is still unclear, however it does seem certain though is that no one will be going back to what is already becoming the “old” normal for a long time, if ever. It is also clear that this will affect how advertisers communicate with customers moving forward. Flexibility, agility and relevance will be key ingredients in designing communications in the coming months, if not years.
Effectively and efficiently travelling through towns and cities has always been key to keeping a city moving in terms of business, shopping and our social lives. How we do that, and the effect it has on the environment, our bank accounts and stress levels, has been a growing debate over the last few years.
The OOH industry is built to capitalise on the movement of people with much of the industry’s infrastructure coming from transport networks. In recent weeks however all of this has been interrupted. Normal travel behaviours have been disrupted, and with changes to travel patterns comes changes to out of home advertising too.
Here we consider what a post-lockdown society might look like, and how we might travel through it, from the potential increase in car usage, to returning to public transport and the reappraisal of the rush hour commute.
Home is where the work is - WORK in the NOWPosterscope
In this edition we focus on WORK in the NOW. It’s probably fair to say that over the last two months just about every one of the 32.6 million people employed in the UK (ONS, 2019) has experienced unprecedented changes to their working lives, following the government’s lockdown announcement on the 23rd of March. In ‘Home is where the work is’ we look at the change in commuter activity, the effect on Supermarket sales figures, different audience behaviours as city workers go suburban, and relevant OOH touchpoint to address the new now.

Analysis of major GB data sources for grocery retail illustrates the significant changes we have seen in shopping behaviour over the last 6 weeks. It demonstrates when these changes were most profound, where they were happening and indicates that in the most recent weeks that overall retail spend is starting to stabilise. This edition of Posterscope’ Now, Near, Next series looks at Shop in the Now, focussing on the retail winners and losers, the UK as a nation of baking and beer, the change to shopping locally and the need for advertising to be more aware of itself than ever.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
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:
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.
