The Sustainable Energy Floor (SEF) is a fully recyclable pedestrian floor system which can be used in pavements and high footfall areas, such as sport arenas, airports, railway stations, shopping malls, and office and apartment blocks. SEF enables people to generate their own energy to illuminate the space around them, or the energy can be used to power local systems such as street lights and signing systems.
The symbiotic relationship between smart cities and smart grids. The integration of city infrastructure with electric utilities infrastructure is indeed a natural way of building a system of systems to deliver a secure resilient grid through the emergence of integrated utility micro-grids.
Smart Energy Token project - Sento Solutions Dubai presentationAndro Bunić
Sento Solutions discovered a new opportunity and vision of the electrical network connectivity in modern digital electricity meters that are, slowly but surely, replacing the conventional induction motor meters. Modern digital meters are an immense source of information that has not yet been utilized to a greater extent. The Sento Solutions concept consists of a software-defined USB stick called sNODE, which is able to convert data, sent by such digital meters, into useful information, which the user can access via the interface of smart devices through special Sento Solutions software.

Energy Data Analytics | Energy Efficiency | IndiaUmesh Bhutoria
This white paper/forward looking note focuses on the role that energy data analytics can play in driving energy efficiency practices and investments, especially in the Indian context. It’s based on extensive desk research and supported by an online survey conducted on industry personnel and other experts
Basics of #Industrial #EnergyEfficiency #AnalyticsUmesh Bhutoria
Thoughts on what i consider the "Basics of Industrial #EnergyEfficiency Analytics" markets. The markets have a lot of room for innovation and hope this presentation can act as food for thought for all the enthusiasts to find their role in the markets!
What are big data in the contacts of energy & utilities, and how/where can the utilities find value in the data. In this C-level presentation we discussed the three prime areas: grid operations, smart metering and asset & workforce management. A section on cognitive computing for utilities have been omitted from the presentation due to confidentiality - but I tell you - it is mind-blowing perspectives on how IBM Watson will help utilities plan and optimize their operations in the near future!

What if some Utilities in Western Europe, Japan, Australia and USA by 2020 lost about 50% of their demands; and obviously the revenues associated with those operations? The Prosumers are here and they are looking for Regulatory Solutions!!!
Presentation of the project OpenFridge in the Workshop on Big Data and Society Data Economy, Real-Time Mining and Analytics, Mining Techniques for Online and Customer Service in Big data Era Part of the 2013 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (IEEE Big Data 2013) 6-9 October 2013, Silicon Valley, CA, USA
One of the miracles of the modern era is the reliability of the modern grid. An understanding of how a utility operates will not only allow a better understanding of how the electricity we use daily is generated and transported to our homes and businesses but will provide insight into how alternative technologies such as smart grid and demand response will change the way we think of power generation, transmission, and distribution
Evolving Distribution Grid article in Electric Perspectives magazine Jan-Feb 2015 edition. Article discusses emerging business opportunities for a utility Distribution Services Provider.
A “Smart” Approach to Big Data in the Energy IndustrySAP Analytics
http://spr.ly/AA_Utilities - Most companies in the oil and gas (O&G), utilities and chemical process industries benefit significantly from global markets; however, they also face pressures that demand instant response to fast-paced international events. Energy companies are using real-time data and analytics to solve key challenges in hotly competitive global markets.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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.

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.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.
