Jan 2016 talk to SW Data Meetup by Kevin O'Malley (City Innovation Team Manager, Bristol City Council) at the "OPEN DATA SPECIAL: Kickstarting ODI Bristol" event.
The open data landscape in Bristol is evolving rapidly. This special meetup will update South West Data on recent developments, including an opportunity for the Meetup to become the City's official Open Data Institute (ODI) network - kickstarting ODI Bristol with an established network of data experts to which the ODI Node would bring data producers and data consumers into the mix.
In January 2015, Kevin O'Malley, Bristol City Council, gave a well-received talk to a packed meetup about Bristol is Open and the Open Programmable City API. One year on he will be returning to talk about ODI Bristol and update the group on additions to the City's open data portfolio, including Bristol API (Transport).
There's also a lot going on in open data in the region, outside of Bristol City Council and Jen Williams, from NetworkedPlanet, will be pitching an idea for South West Data to host an Open Data Camp, an "unconference", which would involve taking over the Watershed for a weekend and a mix of local, national and international (un)delegates.
The meetup will allow time for, appropriately, open discussion, questions and answers from the speakers and the audience.
Tom Heath, Head of Research at ODI, Leigh Dodds, Senior Consultant at ODI, and Martin Howitt, from ODI Devon Node, will all be at hand to contribute to the discussion and answer questions.
From historical mapping to mobile 3D augmented reality, this presentation takes a look at data management developments relevant to the Environment industry.
Sharing economy platforms and applications are already being used widely in the B2C markets, such as Über and Airbnb, but sharing economy solutions for the B2B markets still includes a lot of potential. The principles of sharing economy are being utilized in the B2B markets for instance by sharing machinery in agriculture and forestry. In addition, other tangible assets, such as equipment, raw materials, office space and warehouses can be shared between companies. Intangible shared assets include for instance companies' brainpower, knowledge and intellectual capital.

Sitra webinar 4 February 2021: The sustainable use of data – the European competitive advantage
Katri Korhonen, specialist, The Finnish Innovation Fund Sitra
As Europe's leading economic powerhouse and the fourth-largest hashtag#economy globally, Germany stands at the forefront of innovation and industrial might. Renowned for its precision engineering and high-tech sectors, Germany's economic structure is heavily supported by a robust service industry, accounting for approximately 68% of its GDP. This economic clout and strategic geopolitical stance position Germany as a focal point in the global cyber threat landscape.
In the face of escalating global tensions, particularly those emanating from geopolitical disputes with nations like hashtag#Russia and hashtag#China, hashtag#Germany has witnessed a significant uptick in targeted cyber operations. Our analysis indicates a marked increase in hashtag#cyberattack sophistication aimed at critical infrastructure and key industrial sectors. These attacks range from ransomware campaigns to hashtag#AdvancedPersistentThreats (hashtag#APTs), threatening national security and business integrity.
🔑 Key findings include:
🔍 Increased frequency and complexity of cyber threats.
🔍 Escalation of state-sponsored and criminally motivated cyber operations.
🔍 Active dark web exchanges of malicious tools and tactics.
Our comprehensive report delves into these challenges, using a blend of open-source and proprietary data collection techniques. By monitoring activity on critical networks and analyzing attack patterns, our team provides a detailed overview of the threats facing German entities.
This report aims to equip stakeholders across public and private sectors with the knowledge to enhance their defensive strategies, reduce exposure to cyber risks, and reinforce Germany's resilience against cyber threats.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
