This document discusses measuring the direct benefits of local economies. It proposes that a local economy unites people and assets to build a community investment portfolio. This establishes a platform for local governance and sustainability by engaging citizens and allowing the utilization of assets, paid work, entrepreneurship, and community investment that can continue benefiting the community over time through civic engagement and liquidity of assets. Finally, it suggests that a local economy is everyone's responsibility to meet community needs and contribute to satisfying wants, with everyone benefiting.
Here are the next steps to continue developing your local business ecosystem:
1. Further explore the resources available at LocalFoodSystems.org to learn more about business ecosystem models.
2. Use the online collaboration tools to form a working group of interested businesses and organizations.
3. Have each member develop a business case template to describe their business objectives and how they fit within the ecosystem.
4. Share the individual business cases within the group and identify potential clusters and supply chain connections between members.
5. Establish an governance structure, such as a cooperative, to coordinate the ecosystem and ensure benefits are shared.
6. Continue mapping the relationships and resources within the emerging business ecosystem to strengthen local economic activity.

Spending more money locally on food sourced from within 100 miles of a community can have economic benefits. If residents of North and South Linden, Ohio spent an additional 2% of their food dollars on local food, it could create 36 new jobs paying $30,000 per year. This is because more money would be spent on local food production, processing, and labor within the community rather than leaving the area. A curriculum is being developed to train residents in local food system jobs like food production, processing, business planning, and year-round agriculture techniques.

The document defines key terms related to local agriculture systems and discusses how the USDA Specialty Crop Research Initiative uses a holistic framework to support local food systems. The framework focuses on diversifying specialty crop portfolios, integrating production and consumption within local areas, and developing self-sufficient local agriculture networks that improve community health and economic opportunities.
The document discusses strategies for building sustainable local economies. It argues that choosing locally-sourced options for food, energy, manufacturing and currency can provide security, safety, health and affordability for communities while stimulating the local economy. Specific strategies proposed include developing local food systems to source 20% of daily calories from the neighborhood, extending seasons through processing to access food year-round, and creating jobs through reuse of vacant properties for urban food production. Overall, participating in the local economy through values-aligned business, policies and community engagement is posited to benefit individuals and communities.
A March 2009 final report given to the Illinois General Assembly by the Local and Organic Food and Farm Task Force opened with the following statement:
Illinois consumers spend $48 billion annually on food. Nearly all of this money leaves the state. To retain a larger share of Illinois food dollars, public, private, and civic sectors must work together to build a farm and food system that meets consumer demand for “local” food.
Explores the concept that all community members may participate in localizing their agriculture systems by making conscious, informed decisions to buy agriculture products from local sources, or not; advancing local agriculture as a way to reclaim responsibility and accountability for health, community well-being, economic stability, and ecological sustainability; and, providing resources for local agriculture to be acculturated and embedded within the community
Introduces a process to identify key factors contributing to localization, frame a way to track localization as it unfolds, and respond to localization trends with appropriate integrated solutions
Offers key questions to prompt the audience to consider what is a local economy; how to participate in one; characteristics of a business model and business ecosystem in a local economy; how resources flow in a business ecosystem; and, how to implement a local economy.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.
