Presentation on the digital challenge for museums given by Nick Poole, CEO Collections Trust at the joint CT / Museums Galleries Scotland event on the 2 March 2010.
Summary of a talk I did at Beyond The Smart City June 25th 2015 in Devon for the Devon Node of the ODI. It includes examples of some of the work we do at Visceral Business.
Disruption is the talk of the town - breakthrough technologies are, well, breaking through everywhere and everyday. What can firms do to mitigate the risk of being disrupted? By disruption! It's no easy task to 'eat oneself' and often there will be serious barriers (culture, technology etc.) for doing so. As we are moving fast from industrial production and economies of scale, economies of experience and service design become the critical assets: The customer experience! The customer experience must seek to integrate the digital with the physical. Your customers already swaps seamlessly between the two, so should you! With mobile as more than just another channel, customer experience must also focus on creating 'mobile moments' (of truth) where customer needs are foreseen and fulfilled across the omnichannel. Key is to provide a platform on which users can interact and co-create. Providing the winning platform will position you as the gatekeeper, 'owning' the customer (as the saying goes) and safe guard against new entrants and disruption. Enable collaboration to take this digital transformation the last steps.
ACCORDING to AG Lafley, CEO of Procter & Gamble, collaboration is a key ingredient in a company’s arsenal to help it innovate better and faster, and proactively
respond to the increased demand we face in a global and connected economy.
What is Social Networking?
The power behind the new communication paradigm exemplified by internet sites such as Facebook, Wikipedia and YouTube is that it promotes the flow of ideas — including
advice, feedback and criticism — all of it free of charge.
I think that AG Lafley puts it best when he says: “No company today, no matter how large or how global, can innovate fast enough or big enough by itself.

Javier Celaya - Publishing is TechnologyIfBookThen
Technology has fundamentally changed the publishing industry in several ways. It has changed how people discover, consume, and share information and content. It has also changed how people read, with a shift from reading with eyes to reading with fingers on screens. To remain relevant, publishers must embrace these changes and add new value-added services to their business models rather than just focus on content. These services could include author tools, community building, self-publishing services, personalized recommendations, and analytics. Publishers should partner with startups to help identify and create these new services, avoid being blind to digital opportunities, and transform their businesses for the digital age.

Content trends: Get ready for Smarter Content - Geoffrey Igharo, CreunaGeoffrey Igharo
Title: Get ready for smarter content
Publication date June 21, 2018
Description: Brands need to get ready for a world of smarter content. We are on the verge of a major shift in how content is consumed. This has implications for the type of content strategy that brands should develop, how they should allocate their content investments, and how they will actually produce content. Equally important, these changes to how content is consumed make ethical considerations in customer relationships even more important than before - it can no longer be an afterthought.
The document discusses new opportunities for government organizations from tools like social media, open data, and mobile technology. It proposes starting small experiments and pilots to test these new approaches while focusing on real outcomes and changing roles from service provider to facilitator. The meeting aims to provide insight into related initiatives and create a mindset for partners to identify collaborative projects that leverage these new technologies.
Digital transformation starts with your employees. Does your workplace culture empower everyone in your organization to transform and grow the business? A digital workplace can change how your people work and influence your business. Microsoft Services solutions can help you drive leadership, sponsorship, coaching, motivation, training, business insights, and reinforcement practices.
The document discusses the evolution of industrial revolutions from the 18th century to today. The first revolution involved steam power and mechanization, the second brought electricity and mass production, and the third focused on electronics and information technology. Now a fourth industrial revolution is underway, characterized by unprecedented processing power, data storage, and the merging of physical and digital worlds through technologies like the Internet of Things. This digital transformation requires companies to embrace new technologies to increase efficiency and shape their future.

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).
