Accenture Mobility - Trends for the Next DecadeLars Kamp
From a deck that I presented at the SIIA “All About Mobile” conference in November 2011 in San Francisco. It starts with the usual set of slides on the recent history of mobility (and I will keep presenting them until I see no more “I had no clue” faces in an audience), and then goes deeper into Moore’s Law and how we see it continuing for cell phones.
An additional journey back in history to the early days of the industrialization and electricity. Companies had to generate their own power (by using wind, water, animals, etc.) and Burden’s Wheel is a good example of one big, giant monolithic effort to do so. Along came Tesla and Westinghouse, and the first power plant “Adam’s Plant” was able to provide about 3x the power, but over a much further distance, and to multiple customers. The concept of an electric utility was born, and what we saw happening was the fall of “enterprise power generation”.
Fast forward to 1969, and Douglas Parkhill and John McCarthy came up with the concept of the “Computer Utility”. Today we see multi-$B investments into public cloud infrastructures. In very simple terms, if history in the utility industry is any indicator, we will see enterprise clouds disappear. And as cloud infrastructures scale and get more efficient, and the price of computing goes down (Moore’s Law), developers will find a way to use and instrument that computing power, and make it consumable to enterprises and consumers, which gets us to Jevons’ Paradox.
Jevons observed how consumption of energy in England went up as coal power plants got more efficient. All the way to today where we keep the lights on in our homes 24/7, and darkness has actually become a scarce good in some metropolitan areas. Switching to enterprise computing and looking at BEA data on IT assets for the past four decades, we see that prices for IT assets are falling, whereas other assets follow an inflationary path. And as computing gets cheaper, enterprises consume more and more of it (and you can argue so do consumers, aka “Consumerization of IT”).
What is striking that with the arrival of the public Internet in ‘90-95 and web companies like Yahoo and Amazon, the mix in consumption is shifting: it’s increasingly going towards software, up from a SW:HW ratio of roughly 1:1 over three decades, to now 3:1. So today, for every $1 spent on hardware, enterprises spend $3 on software. Hence, it seems like enterprises are making use of the public cloud, which would explain the rise of SaaS companies, such Salesforce, SuccessFactors and also Amazon’s AWS.
And as the rise of smartphones is only beginning, enterprise mobility will likely drive the trend of an increasing SW:HW ratio further up. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the mix go to 10:1 in the next five years as smartphones proliferate and the amount of on-deck and off-deck computing power available to a single device is growing exponentially, the concept of “accelerated acceleratio

Appsforgeo.be took place on Friday 26th of April 2013. It was a 5 hour long hackaton, where apps (web or mobile) will be developed with a focus on Geodata in Open Data format.
The aim of the Appsforgeo.be day is to bring together Geo data-owners with application developers from enterprise , creative world… in order to get most out of the combination of available open geodatasets and aim for more open datasets. The appsforgeo.be day is also an interesting learning curve for public geo-authorities, data owners and other participants, in order to improve and ease the opening up of public data.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
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.
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
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Builder.ai Founder Sachin Dev Duggal's Strategic Approach to Create an Innova...Ramesh Iyer
In today's fast-changing business world, Companies that adapt and embrace new ideas often need help to keep up with the competition. However, fostering a culture of innovation takes much work. It takes vision, leadership and willingness to take risks in the right proportion. Sachin Dev Duggal, co-founder of Builder.ai, has perfected the art of this balance, creating a company culture where creativity and growth are nurtured at each stage.
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.
