IBM Connections – Managing Growth and ExpansionLetsConnect
You are lucky, your Connections platform is experiencing rapid growth – now what? How to you determine when you have grown to where you need to build out the service? How do you grow WebSphere or the File Service Space? How do you add additional Web Servers or is it better to add a proxy server? Learn how to judge and decide what you need to change – and how to then implement it.
Herding Presidents (and others) to the Promised LandLetsConnect
In this case study, we’ll cover how a religious institution used IBM Connections to revolutionize how collaboration works within the non-profit. The initial group of users were hiring a new leader and 5 of the 15 users were current or past presidents of the organization. All of the users were influential in their professional lives and through persistence with patience, learned to embrace the IBM technology. The organization now uses it for many groups of users and the original group are internal evangelists, understanding the value of memorialized, searchable historical content along with current discussions. The case study will include how the software is licensed in an affordable way and managed by lay leaders along with internal staff.
When joining the world of corporate IT, theory meets practice and suddenly resource restrictions, tight schedules and competing projects are more important than the university textbooks had made believe. One can falter or garner a band of brothers (and sisters!) and find a way.
This session will illustrate the corporate prerequisites of our initiative to introduce Connections to the workplace and discuss how we chose a guerilla approach of introducing connections into an environment that is – by law and tradition – weary of change.
After shortly touching on the special setup of our organization, the requirements of our corporate IT
and the situation in banking at large, we will review the steps that were taken to evolve our connections environment from a testing setup to first trial communities and from first use cases to a platform-strategy that has just started to get implemented.
A case for taking small steps and being resistant to nagging.

Building a social business – combining external and internal social mediaZipipop Freud
This document discusses how to build internal social collaboration capabilities within an organization. It suggests that as external social media like Facebook and Twitter have grown, internal collaboration tools need to evolve as well to facilitate sharing, discussing, and interacting around content within organizations. The document outlines challenges with traditional email and proposes using social collaboration platforms that integrate with daily workflows. It provides examples of how organizations like Skanska and OSKE have successfully implemented internal social tools to improve communication, knowledge sharing, and business outcomes.

It presents 3 key theses: 1) Knowledge is best created and shared within a community, not individually. 2) For people, acquiring knowledge is a meaningful social process that occurs between those who understand a topic. 3) The natural way to create knowledge is through social collaboration, such as on an enterprise social network. Examples of how communities can form and share knowledge on a social platform are provided. Areas for improvement are also noted, such as a stable chat function and virtual classrooms.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

6. Our Objectives of Implementing Social Software
Improving internal communication
Simplify cooperation
Improving know-how transfer
Preserving and sharing of know-how
8. Improving internal communication
How was the communication before the adoption of Social Software:
Top-Down
Verbally
By e-mail
1:1
Bottom-Up
Verbally
1:1
Among Peers
Fragmented in business units and projects
22. Implementation of our Social Intranet – Best Practices
Establishing know-how communities (we are technicians) Pilot phase
- Appointing community-leaders, who are responsible for the content
Establishing HR- and Management communities
********************************************************************************************
Introduction and training of all employees Productive
Official means of communication are the community blogs of the management since
and HR. It’s the duty of the employee to follow and to get the information from January
there) 2011
Convince the employees -> using positive examples of the benefit when using
the social intranet (not only passively, but also actively)
Management and community owners have to be role models
******************************************************************************************** Future?
Attitude of sharing and playing an active part in the social intranet should be a
habit and might be required for a professional qualification
23. Conclusion of a new employee
«… I never thougth that you could shorten the period of
vocational adjustment just by having in place something
like know-how communities and you can access the
know-how of your peers at your finger tips.»
«… when I look up some technical information
in our Connections, I can be sure that the relevance
is much higher and I trust the source.»
24. Conclusion of the management after almost two years
Our Objectives of Implementing Social Software were all achieved
Improving the internal communication
Simplify cooperation
Improving know-how transfer
Preserving and sharing of know-how
There are still challenges
Critical mass (10% rule doesn’t work)
File Explorer in mind (where exactly is…)
Finding the time to contribute during packed days
25. My personal conclusion
«Our social intranet is a success story
… but language skills and communication skills are more
important than ever.»
