This document discusses how process management and decision management can help create smarter mobile apps. It begins with examples of how current mobile apps utilize location services and cameras. It then outlines limitations of traditional platforms in personalization, localization, and real-time responses. The roles of process management and decision management are described in integrating mobile apps with backend systems and automating decisions. The presentation argues that these approaches can provide a better mobile experience through seamless processes, localized answers rather than just data, and straight-through digital processing.
A bit of a technical look at how to design process-based applications (a.k.a. Smart Process Applications): why they are different from traditional structured BPM, and all of the components that you need to consider. Delivered at DST's ADVANCE Forum in London, June 2014.

The General Data Protection Regulation: Why do people say yes to marketing?
There is a dichotomy between respect for private lives and the data-driven demands of marketing. Hyper personalisation, profiling and programmatic marketing’s ability to deliver pinpoint accurate messaging, must surely drive greater return on marketing investment; but at what cost to an individuals’ right to privacy.
What if a law demanded absolute honesty, total disclosure, a revelation of the true intimacy of the data collected, a cathartic proclamation of the true depth of our knowledge, the value of this data, and the profit earned?
Never mind what if; it’s here and will be in force in less than two years.
This event is about what you can, and should be doing to profit from changes in law and attitudes precipitated by the General Data Protection Regulation. Marketers and agencies must now ask; if people were made to understood what we did in terms of tracking, segmenting, profiling, augmenting, scraping and trading in data about them, would they actively, unequivocally, continually CONSENT to it?
If you think the answer is no, you might want to place this question at the top of your to-do list; why people say yes to marketing?
Grey fleet is a murky area but the problems arise when out of the shadows issues appear. Because most employers have little or no idea of where they stand with regard to:
● Costs
● Safety
● Environment Impact
At Automotive Leasing we know fleets, and we have some pretty sharp thoughts on the subject – and we’ve shared them with you in a slideshare.
Net New Business Summit 16 0920 Destin ForidaLarry Levine
How many deals are your sales reps involved in within your marketplace? Companies must look credible online as well as their sales reps. How many deals are going down in your respective territories that you are not involved in?
Marketing to Make Managed Services Mainstream Larry Levine
You have launched a managed services business knowing that it will be an important part of your future. But while some of your key clients have signed up for managed services, the majority of your customers and prospects still view you as a copier company. In this workshop-style session, you will learn practical strategies to cross the chasm and position your managed services and document solutions offerings so that the majority of your clients want to sign up. You'll discover ways to get the attention and buy-in of the majority of your current and potential clients so that your managed services business can become a core revenue driver in your dealership.
OCR Audits Are Coming – Is Your Organization Prepared?Polsinelli PC
OCR has finally launched its Phase 2 formal audits of Covered Entities (CEs) and Business Associates (BAs). The first step of an audit will consist of OCR reviewing a CE's policies, procedures, and processes for HIPAA Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification Compliance. If significant noncompliance is uncovered, OCR may probe further with an on-site inspection. Upon notice of an OCR audit, OCR will require CEs and BAs to produce their HIPAA policies, procedures, and other compliance documents within 10 days. If you wait until notice of an audit to shore up your HIPAA policies, procedures and compliance documents, it will be too late. All this occurs under the backdrop of dramatically increased HIPAA enforcement actions by OCR; in the first quarter of 2016 alone, OCR extracted settlements or imposed CMPs in six formal cases ranging from $125,000 to $3.9 million. That is as many settlements as OCR extracted in the entire year of 2015.
How are your HIPAA policies and procedures? Have you ever developed them? Can you find them? Will they pass an OCR review? Has your organization undergone a HIPAA Security Risk Analysis? Has it been updated? An ounce of HIPAA preparation now will save $100,000s in cure later. Polsinelli presents this webinar to explain what to expect from an OCR audit and how to prepare a "HIPAA audit binder" that will put you in a better position to respond to OCR if the agency should come knocking.

A Perfect Combination: Case Management and Low CodeSandy Kemsley
A paper that I wrote on case management and low code. Low code application development platforms are definitely the way to go for building long-tail case management, but you can also flip this around: the case management paradigm is a perfect match when you're building low-code applications.
The paper was sponsored by TIBCO but doesn't discuss their products.
Review of the St. Andrew's community market in 2009Sandy Kemsley
For those of you who come to Slideshare for my business presentations, this isn't one of them! Instead, it's a presentation about a community market that I was involved in a few years ago.
A summary of a community farmers' market that we helped to organize and run during the summer of 2009. Unfortunately, business was not good enough that year to inspire the farmers to return, so we only had one year of it, but it's still a fond memory for the neighbourhood. For some reason, this presentation was removed from when it was originally posted in 2009, so reposting now in 2018.

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.

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.
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.
