The document discusses different models of collaboration that businesses can use: open, closed, hierarchical, and flat networks. Open networks allow unlimited participation but make it difficult to attract the best partners. Closed networks selectively choose partners but risk missing out on solutions. Hierarchical networks give one organization control over problem-solving while flat networks share costs and risks. The best approach depends on a business's capabilities, knowledge, and problem characteristics. Hybrid models that combine open and closed strategies may be most effective going forward.
This presentation was from the webinar "Crowdsourcing for Product Managers" held on May 31/11. It looks at crowdsourcing as an option for product managers to help build better products, stay in tune with the market, and create stickiness with prospects and customers.
This presentation was given at the 2012 Online Research Methods Conference in London, UK. The content focuses on an overview of crowdsourcing as a possible research methodology when appropriate.
Gnomes-that-code can transition to winners-that-code.
This presentation introduces the concept of development options.
An appropriately designed network continuously synthesizes development options that provide the potential to take action that may result in a favorable gain.
When an attractive gain may be realized, options are exercised.
Multiple options can be active simultaneously to provide multiple opportunities to win within the network’s current capabilities and within the project’s current constraints
Concepts that can help gnomes that code improve their capability to synthesize and exercise attractive development options include:
Requisite variety
Pair Development
Disintermediation
Recursion

Humanity Centered Design: Why human centered design is no longer enough and w...Emilia Palaveeva
In the last few years, human centered design has been credited with creating exciting and rich products, services and experiences. But as the pace of change accelerates and we come to terms with the impact of transformational technologies like social media, virtual reality and artificial intelligence, human centered design, with its focus on the individual is no longer sufficient if we hope to create not only delightful but meaningful experiences. Here is why and how design should evolve to be humanity-centered and claim its role as new enlightenment advocate.

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.
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).

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.

De-mystifying Zero to One: Design Informed Techniques for Greenfield Innovati...
Social Web Studies - What kind of collaboration is right for your business.
1. Social Web Studies
What kind of Collaboration is right for your business?
Hélio Teixeira
New York, May 2010
2. Collaboration in Social Media age
• The good news is that potential partners and ways to collaborate
with them have both expanded enormously in number.
• The bad news is that greater choice has made the perennial
management challenger of selecting the best options much more
difficult.
3. Collaboration in Social Media age
• Should you open up and share your intellectual property with the
community?
• Should you nurture collaborative relationships with a few carefully
selected partners?
• Should you harness the “wisdom of crowd”?
4. Collaboration in Social Media age
• Different modes of collaboration involve different strategic trade-offs
• Companies that choose the wrong mode risk falling behind in the
relentless race to develop new technologies, designs, products and
services
5. Collaborative Architecture
• All too often firms jump into relationships without considering their
structure and organizing principles...
6. Given your strategy...
• How open or closed should your firm’s network of
collaborators be? and
• Who should decide wich problems the network will tackle and
wich solutions will be adopted?
7.
8. Collaboration Networks
• Collaboration Networks differ significantly in the degree to which
membership is open to anyone who wants to join;
• Collaboration Networks also differ fundamentally in their form of
governance. In some the power to decide which problems are most
important, how they’ll be solved, what constitues na acceptable
solution, and which solution should be implemented is completely
vested in one firm in the network: the “kingpin”.
9. Open or Closed Network?
• In totally open collaboration everyone can participate. A sponsor
makes a problem public and then essentially seeks support from na
unlimited number of problem solvers, who may contribute if they
believe they have capabilities and assets to offer. Ex.: Open Source
software projects such as Linux, Apache, and Mozilla are examples
of these networks;
• Closed Networks, in contrast, are like private clubs. Here, you
tackle the problem with one or more parties that you select because
you deem them to have capabilities and assets crucial to the
sought-after innovation.
10. Open or Closed Network?
• Discussions of collaborative innovation in both academic journals
and the popular media often wrongly link “openness” only with
“flatness” – and even suggest that open, flat approaches are always
superior. The notion is deeply flawed, however.
11. Open or Closed Network?
• The costs of searching for, screening, and selecting contributor
grow as the network becames larger and can become prohibitive.
▫ So understanding when you need a small or large number of
problem solvers is crucial
▫ Closed modes, obviously, tem to be much smaller than open ones.
12. When you use a closed mode, you are
making two implicit bets:
• 1 - That you have identified the knowledge domain from which the
best solution to your problem will come, and...
• 2 – That you can pick the right collaborators in that field
However...
If you don’t know where to look for solutions or who the key
players (and have no way to find out), a closed mode is
dangerous shot in the dark.
13. The big advantage of an open network is:
• Its potential to attract na extremely large number of problems
solvers and, consequently, a vast number of ideas.
• You do not need to identify either the best knowledge domains or
the nost appropriate expert in those domains.
• You don’t need to know your contributors. Indeed, the fact that you
don’t know them can be particularly valuable.
14. Open modes, however, have their
disvantages...
• Notably, they’re not as effective as closed approachs in identifying
and attracting the best players. That’s because as the number of
participants increases, the likelihood that participant’s solution will
be selected (especially for ambiguous problem) decreases;
• The best parties, therefare, prefer to participate in closed
relationships;
15. Another requeriment of open modes is...
• ...that participating in them must be easy
▫ This is possible when a problem can be partioned into small, well-
definided chunks that players can work on autonomously at a fairly
low cost.
Ex.: The inherently modular structure of the Linux open-source
community allows software developers to create code for new features
without touching other parts of the application.
• Of course, not all problems can be partitioned into small,
discrete chunks.
▫ Ex.: The development of radically new product concepts or product
architectures is a integral task that has to be embraced in its
entirety. In such cases, closed modes that provide na environment
where collaborators can closely interact must be employed.
16. Flat or Hierarchical Governance?
• The chief distinction beteween a hierarchical and flat form of
governance is who gets to define the problem and choose the
solution.
• In the hierarchical form, a specific organization has this authority,
which provides it with the advantage of being able to control the
direction of the innovation efforts and capture more of the
innovation’s value.
• In the flat form, these decisons are either descentralized or made
jointly by some or all collaborators; the advantage here is the ability
to share with others the costs, risks, and technical challenges of
innovation.
17. Hierarchical Governance is desirable...
• When your organization has the capabilities and knowledge needed
to define the problem and evaluate proposed solutions.
18.
19. Conversely Flat modes work well when...
• No single organization has the necessary breadth of perspective or
capabilities.
20.
21. Designing incentives – both financial and
nonfinancial...
• ...that attract external collaborators is crucial with any of the four
modes of collaboration.
22. Open and Closed Innovation: The Future?
Continued reform of the closed model: networked, platform innovators
Closed innovators learning from open model
Wider application of the open model from software
Hybrid mixes of the open and closed models
23. Thanks!
