Disruptive Technologies – A 2021 UpdateCTRM Center
In 2021, Commodity Technology Advisory LLC (ComTech) published its first Disruptive Technologies research report (that version kindly sponsored by FIS). Technologies covered in the study scope included cloud/SaaS, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), big data, automation and blockchain, amongst others. The findings were supported by an industry survey that led to the broad conclusions that cloud/SaaS and data management initiatives were in flight. AI, ML and automation seemed to be prepping for an explosion of use while blockchain was overhyped and lagging. Over the last couple of years, our general market observations as analysts have largely confirmed the results of the research.

Industry 4.0 is the name of the next industrial revolution which is fueled by the advancement of digital technologies. It
is dramatically changing how companies engage in business activities. As a result, the disruptive nature of Industry 4.0
demands a reassessment of the requirements for IT. On the one hand, there is the possibility that the responsibilities of Chief Information Officers (CIOs) could be taken over by other executives such as the Chief Digital Officer (CDO) or the Chief Technology Officer (CTO). On the other hand, this
recent development creates entirely new perspectives for positioning themselves and their IT departments
within the business.
The impact of digital technologies is reaching a magnitude at which IT is considered a substantial
business driver, potentially placing CIOs in the driver’s seat.
Cognizant is the only company to earn a place in the list of Forbes fastest growing technology companies every year since the list’s inception. Its intriguing growth leaves us inquisitive – is there a framework to excel? Has Cognizant found the same? It is known that the book Built to Last by Jim Collins and Jerry Porras influenced Francisco D’Souza (CEO of Cognizant) the most. He is committed to establish a “cult like” culture focused on core values. But, beyond this, does their dual mandate of run better and run different have any role in their monumental growth? Cognizant is not only preaching about helping their clients to transform in order to run better and run different but also walking the talk by practicing the dual mandate within organization from its early days.

India Technology Product M&A Industry Monitor Report - Presented by iSPIRT & ...ProductNation/iSPIRT
The iSPIRT M&A monitor shows that since 2010, there have been 159 M&A transactions involving Indian Technology Product companies, with a total estimated transaction value of $1.78B. Domestic transactions account for the lion share (70%) of the M&A activity by volume. However in value terms, the 48 inbound M&A transactions account for 63% of the estimated M&A transaction value, due to a higher average deal size ($23.3m versus $6.0m).
“In the Silicon Valley, technology M&A exits provide liquidity to all the stakeholders in the eco-system and help enable the next generation of tech startups. For the Indian product startup eco-system to flourish, it is critical to us to drive up the level of Technology Product M&A transactions”, said Sanat Rao, who leads iSPIRT’s M&A Connect Program, an initiative dedicated to facilitating and expediting the cross-border M&A process for Indian software product companies.

Attaining IoT Value: How To Move from Connecting Things to Capturing InsightsSustainable Brands
Cisco estimates that the Internet of Everything (IoE) — the networked connection of people, process, data, and things — will generate $19 trillion in Value at Stake for the private and public sectors combined between 2013 and 2022. More than 42 percent of this value — $8 trillion — will come from one of IoE’s chief enablers, the Internet of Things (IoT). Defined by Cisco as “the intelligent connectivity of physical devices, driving massive gains in efficiency, business growth, and quality of life,” IoT often represents the quickest path to IoE value for private and public sector organizations.
This paper combines original and secondary research, as well as economic analysis, to provide a roadmap for maximizing value from IoT investments. It also explains why, in the worlds of IoT and IoE, the combination of edge computing/analytics and data center/cloud is essential to driving actionable insights that produce improved business outcomes.

In this session we will discuss how next generation business applications enable the
creation of much needed hyper-personalized experiences for customers and employees.
Center Office is a new delivery model that is emerging in response to the need to deliver
end to end hyper-personalized solutions that improve on older enterprise (legacy)
applications. Center Office relies on technologies such as APIs, microservices and
Hyperautomation (next level of automation that meshes AI tools with RPA,, enabling
scaling for complex business processes).
How do we manage employees' experiences as well as preserve talent and create
collaborative workplaces for teams? which new skills are needed? what will the
workforce of the future look like? Which new tools are needed for HR (employee well-
being)?
Recommended for CDOs and all Data & Analytics Managers
The past 2 years have had a huge impact on organizations journeys to become data driven. Existing data architectures were disrupted; rigid structures and processes were questioned, and many data strategies were re-written.
On the one hand, the global pandemic emphasized the need for organizations to raise the bar, implement strategies, improve data literacy and culture, increase investments in data and analytics, and explore AI opportunities.
On the other, it also presented new challenges such as: the war for data talent and the wide literacy gap. Inadequate structures as well as outdated processes were exposed. Major changes in the data landscape (Data Fabric, Data Mesh, Transition to Data Clouds) will further disrupt existing data architectures and enhance the need for a new adaptive architecture and organization.
Recommended for CTOs, architects, IT Managers
COVID-19 has emphasized the fact that business agility and hence technology agility are the most if not the only factors for business success. However, technology agility in most IT departments is not the “strongest muscle”. Technology adoption of Cloud, Devops, Integration, Low-Code and Zero Trust are affecting all IT departments and even the entire organization. New
processes and relationships between the various branches of the IT department should emerge, forsaking old habits and technologies. New technologies and roles\responsibilities are taking their place.
Recommended for CXOs and all IT Managers
If COVID-19 has demonstrated anything it is that organizations can no longer rely on traditional long-term strategic direction-setting, in order to succeed and grow. Today, organizations need to be able to quickly identify changes and respond with speed.
Adaptive enterprises have the technical and organizational agility to do this. In this session, we will present the organizational structure, technologies and concepts that make up an adaptive organization and discuss topics such as: Concierge hyper-personalization services; Personalized (PBC) Business Capabilities; adaptive organizational structure; Centers of Excellence; center office; hyper-automation and data centric organizations.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

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.

STKI Methodology: equilibrium model
The sum of all IT expenditures (from users) has to be equal to
all IT sales (from vendors).
Most research firms are either a
"demand-based"
(market information based on data from users of IT)
or
"supply-based"
(market information based on data from IT vendors).
STKI is one of the only research firms using an equilibrium model
and the only one in Israel.

› Real revenues of software licenses and maintenance.
› Real revenues of hardware sales.
› Differentiation between new projects and continuing projects. New projects count more.
› We do not include any work/ products for OEMs and military non-IT projects.
› We are learning how to account for cloud usage for IT (Israel) only
› We distinguish between work done by the vendor's employees and work outsourced to
another vendor. The revenue is transferred to the vendor actually doing the work.
› Distinguish revenues from projects done in fixed price, cost plus (SLA defined) and staff
augmentation (non SLA) projects.
› Differentiate value between work done by high level internal professionals in a project
and staff augmentation employees in the clients IT department.
