The document discusses how teaching methods need to change to adapt to the digital world and new ways of learning. It notes that over 2 billion people are now connected through a global network and 93.2% of Icelanders are online. Traditional teaching is restricted by outdated methods from the past, but there is now an opportunity to innovate education through new attitudes and approaches to learning. Some suggestions include rethinking reading assignments, publishing student writing, recording lectures, telling stories, and using whatever methods it takes to open up learning.

L23 Summary and Conclusions
This lecture discusses challenges in building enterprise applications and provides advice. It recommends starting simply and evolving designs over time. Complex systems designed from scratch never work, so layering, clear interfaces, and minimizing dependencies are important. Frameworks and design patterns help manage complexity but shouldn't dictate design. Practical considerations include avoiding unnecessary complexity and refactoring when needed.
L13 The Power of Software
After the computing industry got started, a new problem quickly emerged. How do you operate this machines and how to you program them. The development of operating systems was relatively slow compared to the advances in hardware. First system were primitive but slowly got better as demand for computing power incresed. The ideas of the Graphical User Interfaces or GUI (Gooey) go back to Doug Engelbarts Demo of the Century. However, this did not have much impact on the computer industry. One company though, Xerox, a photocopy company explored these ideas with Palo Alto Park. Steve Jobs of Apple and Bill Gates of Microsoft took notice and Apple introduced first Apple Lisa and the Macintosh. In this lecture on we look so lessons for the development of software, and see how our business theories apply.

L19 Local
What is it with people that check in on FourSquare? And why would anybody care? Yet there are 20 millions sigend up generating millions of check-ins. Predictive intelligense is also about where you will be at some time in the future, and where somebody you know will be.
Local is the Lo in SoLoMo, the buzz word. Local is not ony about location, it´s also about your digital track record. Over 70% of Netflix users watch the films recommened. Mining data to understand people´s behaviour is getting to be a huge and valuable bushiness. Advertisers see opportunities in getting direct to their target groups.
The world is about to get really scary.
Future of Learning
The document discusses how learning is transforming from a standardized, analog, institution-focused system to a more personalized, digital, student-focused system. It notes that distribution of content is now almost free online, and that tools of production can be owned by anyone. Learning is moving from institutions to students themselves. Technology amplifies opportunities for innovation in education through changed attitudes. Courses should be designed more like video games. The future of learning management systems includes features like course design editors, digital content publishing to any device/medium, collaboration tools, and motivational grading systems based on levels and points rather than grades.
L12 The Rise of the Machine
Did you know that the term "Computer" once meant a profession? And what did people or computers actually do? They computed mathematical problems. Some problems were tedious and error prone. And it is not surprising that people started to develop machines to aid in the effort. The first mechanical computers were actually created to get rid of errors in human computation. Then came tabulating machines and cash registers. It was not until telephone companies were well established that computing machines became practical.
First computers were huge mainframes, but soon minicomputers like DEC’s PDP started to appear. The transistor was introduced in 1947, but its usefulness was not truly realised until in 1958 when the integrated circuit was invented. This led to the invention of the microprocessor. Intel, in 1971, marketed the 4004 – and the personal computer revolution started. One of the first Personal Computers was MITS’ Altair. This was a simple device and soon others saw the opportunities.
In this lecture we start our coverage of computing and look at some of the early machines and the impact they had.
We will also talk about Assignment 2 and the Goas and Outline.
Whither Smartphone Development
The document discusses future directions of smartphones and mobile development over the next five years. It predicts that smartphones will become as powerful as servers, incorporate more advanced sensors, have improved displays, and support additional operating systems. This increasing capability of smartphones will drive innovation in mobile development tools, APIs, and standards to better develop applications that can take advantage of all smartphone features across devices.
TV Viewing Habits of Students of New Technology
A survey of students at New Technology found that 61% never watch traditional TV broadcasts, with one third watching 2 hours or less per day on average. While three watch the news every day, half watch news 1-5 times per week. Most students use online streaming services like Netflix, with 85% using them and 44% using them seven or more times per week, while 83% download movies or shows and 44% do so seven or more times per week.
Disruptive Technology
The document discusses disruptive technology and innovation. It describes how established companies can fall victim to "the innovator's dilemma" by failing to recognize and respond to disruptive technologies that create new markets. This often occurs because incumbent firms focus on existing customers and markets, while disruptive innovations target non-consumers or new needs. The document uses examples like Western Union rejecting the telephone to illustrate how resources, processes and values can blind large companies to disruptive threats.

Nýsköpun - Leiðin til framfara
Fyrirlestur fyrir Félag tölvunarfræðinga og Verkfræðingafélagið þann 18.05.2022
Nýsköpun er forsenda tækniframfara sem eru forsendur framþróunar. Nýsköpun byrjar yfirleitt smátt og þarf margar ítranir til að virka. Frumkvöðlar sem eru að búa til nýjungar þurfa ekki einungis að glíma við tæknina og takmarkanir hennar, heldur einnig skoðanir og álit samtímamanna sem sjá ekki alltaf tilgang með nýrri tækni. Í þessum fyrirlestri skoðar Ólafur Andri nýsköpun og þær framfarir sem hafa orðið. Einnig skoðar hann hvert tækniframfarir nútímans muni leiða okkur á komandi árum.
Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson er aðjúnkt við Háskólann í Reykjavík og kennir þar námskeið um tækniþróun og hvernig tæknibreytingar hafa áhrif á fyrirtæki. Hann er tölvunarfræðingur (Msc) að mennt frá Oregon University í Bandaríkjanum. Ólafur Andri er frumkvöðull og stofnaði, ásamt fleirum, Margmiðlun og síðar Betware. Þá tók Ólafur Andri þátt í að stofna leikjafyrirtækið Raw Fury AB í Stokkhólmi.
Nýjast tækni og framtíðin
Fyrirlestur haldinn fyrir tæknifaghóp Stjórnvísi þann 13. október 2020.
Undanfarna áratugi höfum við séð gríðalegar framfarir í tækni og nýsköpun á heimsvísu. Þessar framfarir hafa skapað mannkyninu öllu aukna hagsæld. Þrátt fyrir veirufaraldur á heimsvísu eru framfarir ekkert að minnka heldur munu bara aukast næstu árum. Gervgreind, róbotar, sýndarveruleiki, hlutanetið og margt fleira er að búa til nýjar lausnir og ný tækifæri. Framtíðin er í senn sveipuð dulúð og getur verið spennandi og ógnvekjandi í senn. Eina sem við vitum fyrir vissu er að framtíðin verður alltaf betri. Í þessu fyrirlestri ætlar Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson kennari við HR að fjalla um nýjustu tækni og framtíðina.

Nýsköpun er forsenda tækniframfara sem eru forsendur framþróunar. Nýsköpun byrjar yfirleitt smátt og þarf margar ítranir til að virka. Frumkvöðlar sem eru að búa til nýjungar þurfa ekki einungis að glíma við tæknina og takmarkanir hennar, heldur einnig skoðanir og álit samtímamanna sem sjá ekki alltaf tilgang með nýrri tækni. Í þessum fyrirlestri skoðar Ólafur Andri nýsköpun og þær framfarir sem hafa orðið. Einnig skoðar hann hvert tækniframfarir nútímans muni leiða okkur á komandi árum.
Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson er aðjúnkt við Háskólann í Reykjavík og kennir þar námskeið um tækniþróun og hvernig tæknibreytingar hafa áhrif á fyrirtæki. Hann er tölvunarfræðingur (Msc) að mennt frá Oregon University í Bandaríkjanum. Ólafur Andri er frumkvöðull og stofnaði, ásamt fleirum, Margmiðlun og síðar Betware. Þá tók Ólafur Andri þátt í að stofna leikjafyrirtækið Raw Fury AB í Stokkhólmi.
Nýjast tækni og framtíðin
Fyrirlestur haldinn fyrir tæknifaghóp Stjórnvísi þann 13. október 2020.
Undanfarna áratugi höfum við séð gríðalegar framfarir í tækni og nýsköpun á heimsvísu. Þessar framfarir hafa skapað mannkyninu öllu aukna hagsæld. Þrátt fyrir veirufaraldur á heimsvísu eru framfarir ekkert að minnka heldur munu bara aukast næstu árum. Gervgreind, róbotar, sýndarveruleiki, hlutanetið og margt fleira er að búa til nýjar lausnir og ný tækifæri. Framtíðin er í senn sveipuð dulúð og getur verið spennandi og ógnvekjandi í senn. Eina sem við vitum fyrir vissu er að framtíðin verður alltaf betri. Í þessu fyrirlestri ætlar Ólafur Andri Ragnarsson kennari við HR að fjalla um nýjustu tækni og framtíðina.
New Technology Summer 2020 Course Introduction
Slides on the New Technology Summer 2020 Course. Contains information about the content and requirements.
L01 Introduction
Technology is one of the factors of change. When new disruptive technology is introduced, it can change industries. We have many examples of that and will start this journey it one of the most important innovation that has come in our lifetimes, the smartphone. We will explore the impact of the smartphone and the fate of existing companies at the time when iPhone, the first smartphone as we know them, was introduced to the world.
We will also look at other examples from history. Then we look at the broader picture, past industrial revolutions and the one that we are experiencing now, the fourth industrial revolution. Specifically we look briefly at the technologies that fuel this revolution, for example artificial intelligence, robotics, drones, internet of things and more.
L23 Robotics and Drones
This document summarizes a lecture on robotics and drones. It discusses the history of robots dating back to ancient times. It also covers modern industrial robots, robotic developments in the 21st century including robots that can see, hear and sense. The document outlines Isaac Asimov's three laws of robotics. It discusses self-driving cars and their levels of automation. Finally, it covers unmanned aerial vehicles including military drones and delivery drones, and concludes that the robot revolution has only just begun.
L22 Augmented and Virtual Reality
The normal interaction with computers is with keyboard and a mouse. For display a rectangular somewhat small screen is used with 2D windowing systems. The mouse was invented more the 40 years ago and has been for 20 years dominant input. Now we are seeing new types of input devices. Multi-touch adds new dimensions and new applications. Natural user interfaces or gesture interfaces where people point to drag objects. Computers are also beginning to recognize facial expressions of people, so it knows if you are smiling. Voice and natural language understanding is getting to a usable stage. All this calls all types of new applications.
Displays are getting bigger. What if any surface was a screen? If you could spray the wall with screen? Or have you phone project images to the wall.
This lectures explores some of these new types of interactions with computers and software. It makes the old mouse look old.
L20 Personalised World
Local is the Lo in SoLoMo, the buzz word. Local is not only about location, it's also about your digital track record. Over 70% of Netflix users watch the films recommend. Mining data to understand people's behaviour is getting to be a huge and valuable business. Advertisers see opportunities in getting direct to their target groups. Predictive intelligence is also about where you will be at some time in the future, and where somebody you know will be.
It turns out that Facebook and Google know you better than you think you know yourself. The world is about to get really scary.
L19 Network Platforms
Over two billion people signed up for Facebook. This site the most used site for people when using the Internet. People are not watching TV so much anymore - they using Facebook, Youtube and Netflix and number of popular web sites.
Some people denote their time working for others online. What drives people to write an article on Wikipedia? They don´t get paid. Companies are enlisting people to help with innovations and sites such as Galaxy Zoo ask people to help identifying images. And why do people have to film themselves singing when they cannot sing and post the video on Youtube?
In this lecture we talk about how people are using the web to interact in new ways, and doing stuff.
L18 Big Data and Analytics
With the computer revolution vast amount of digital data has become available. With the Internet and smart connected product, the data is growing exponentially. It is estimated that every year, more data is generated than all history prior. And this has repeated over several years.
With all this data, it becomes a platform for something new of its own. In this lecture, we look at what big data is and look at several examples of how to use data. There are many well-know algorithms to analyse data, like clustering and machine learning.
L17 Algorithms and AI
After the computing industry got started, a new problem quickly emerged. How do you operate this machines and how to you program them. The development of operating systems was relatively slow compared to the advances in hardware. First system were primitive but slowly got better as demand for computing power increased. The ideas of the Graphical User Interfaces or GUI (Gooey) go back to Doug Engelbarts Demo of the Century. However, this did not have much impact on the computer industry. One company though, Xerox, a photocopy company explored these ideas with Palo Alto Park. Steve Jobs of Apple and Bill Gates of Microsoft took notice and Apple introduced first Apple Lisa and the Macintosh.
In this lecture on we look so lessons for the development of software, and see how our business theories apply.
In this lecture on we look so lessons for the development of algorithms or software, and see how our business theories apply.
In the second part we look at where software is going, namely Artificial Intelligence. Resent developments in AI are causing an AI boom and new AI application are coming all the time. We look at machine learning and deep learning to get an understanding of the current trends.
L16 Internet of Things
We are currently living in times of great transformation. We have over the last couple of decade seen the Internet become the most powerful disrupting force in the world, connecting everyone and transforming businesses. Now everyday objects - things we use are getting smart with sensors and software. And they are connecting. What does this mean?
We will see the world become alive. Cars will talk to road sensors that talk to systems that guide traffic. Plants will talk to weather systems that talk to scientists that research climate change. Farming fields will talk to the farming system that talks to robots that do fertilising and harvesting. Home appliances like refrigerators, ovens, coffee machines and microwaves ovens will talk to the home food and cooking system that will inform the store that you are running out butter, cheese, laundry detergent and coffee beans, which will inform the robot driver to get this to your house after consulting your calendar upon when someone is at home.
In this lecture we explore the Internet of Things, IoT.
L14 From the Internet to Blockchain
The Internet grew out of US efforts to build the ARPANET, a network of peer computers built during the cold war. The two major players were military and academia. The network was simple and required no efforts for security or social responsibility. The early Internet community was mainly highly educated and respectable scientist. In the early 1990s the World Wide Web, a hypertext system is introduced, and soon browsers start to appear, leading the commercialization of Net. New businesses emerge and a technology boom known as the dot-com era.
The network, now over 40, is being stretched. Problems such as spam, viruses, antisocial behaviour, and demands for more content are prompting reinvention of the Net and threatening its neutrality. Add to this government efforts to regulate and limit the network.
In this lecture we look at the Internet and the impact of the network. We will also look at the future of the Internet.

L14 The Mobile Revolution
- Mobile phones are now the most common device in the world, with over 8.5 billion connections globally as of 2017.
- The development of mobile phones was enabled by earlier innovations in electromagnetism and radio in the late 19th century, but mobile phones did not become practical until the 1980s with the invention of the microchip.
- Mobile technology has advanced through generations from analog 1G networks in the 1980s, to digital 2G networks in the 1990s incorporating texting, and 3G packet switched networks in the 2000s enabling more data and applications.
New Technology 2019 L13 Rise of the Machine
Did you know that the term "Computer" once meant a profession? And what did people or computers actually do? They computed mathematical problems. Some problems were tedious and error prone. And it is not surprising that people started to develop machines to aid in the effort. The first mechanical computers were actually created to get rid of errors in human computation. Then came tabulating machines and cash registers. It was not until telephone companies were well established that computing machines became practical.
First computers were huge mainframes, but soon minicomputers like DEC’s PDP started to appear. The transistor was introduced in 1947, but its usefulness was not truly realized until in 1958 when the integrated circuit was invented. This led to the invention of the microprocessor. Intel, in 1971, marketed the 4004 – and the personal computer revolution started. One of the first Personal Computers was MITS’ Altair. This was a simple device and soon others saw the opportunities.
In this lecture we start our coverage of computing and look at some of the early machines and the impact they had.
L12 digital transformation
Software is changing the way traditional business operate. People now have smartphones in their pockets - a supercomputer that is 25,000 times more powerful and the minicomputers of the 1960s. This is changing people's behaviour and how people shop and use services. The organisational structure created in the 20th century cannot survive when new digital solution are being offered. Software is changing the way traditional business operate. People now have smartphones in their pockets - a supercomputer that is 25,000 times more powerful and the minicomputers of the 1960s. This is changing people's behaviour and how people shop and use services. The organisational structure created in the 20th century cannot survive when new digital solution are being offered. The hierarchical structure of these established companies assumes high coordination cost due to human activity. But when the coordination cost drops
The organisational structure that companies in the 20th century established was based on the fact that employees needed to do all the work. The coordination cost was high due to the effort and cost of employees, housing etc. Now we have software that can do this for use and the coordination cost drops to close-to-zero. Another thing is that things become free. Consider Flickr. Anybody can sign up and use the service for free. Only a fraction of the users get pro account and pay. How can Flickr make money on that? It turns out that services like this can.
Many businesses make money by giving things away. How can that possibly work? The music business has suffered severely with digital distribution of content. Should musicians put all their songs on YouTube? What is the future business model for music?
L10 The Innovator's Dilemma
One of the great irony of successful companies is how easily they can fail. New companies are founded to take advantage of some new technology. They become highly successful and but when the technology shifts, something new comes along, they are unable to adapt and fail. This is the innovator’s dilemma.
Then there are companies that manage to survive. For example, Kodak survived two platform shift, only til fail the third. IBM has survived over 100 years. What do successful companies do differently?
L09 Disruptive Technology
History has many examples of great innovators who had difficult time convincing their contemporaries of new technology. Even incumbent and powerful companies regarded new technologies as inferior and dismissed it as "toys". Then when disruptive technologies take off they often are overhyped and can cause bubbles like the Internet bubble of the late 1990s.
In this lecture we look at some examples of disruptive technologies and the impact they had. We look at the The Disruptive Innovation Theory by Harvard Professor Clayton Christensen.
L09 Technological Revolutions
Technology evolves in big waves that we call revolutions. The first revolution was the Industrial revolution that started in Britain in 1771. Since than we have see more revolutions come and how we are in the fifth. These revolutions follow a similar path. First there is an installation period where the new technologies are installed and deployed, creating wealth to those who were are the right place at the right time. This is followed by a frenzy, where financial markets wants to be apart. The there is crash and turning point, followed by synergy, a golden age.
In 1908, a new technological revolution started. It was the Age of Oil and Automobile. The technology trigger was Henry Ford´s new assembly line technique that allowed the manufacturing of standardized, low cost automobile. This created the car industry and other manufacturing companies. This also created demand for gas thus creating the oil industry. During the Roaring Twenties the stock prices rose to new levels, until a crash and the Great Depression. Only after World War II, came a turnaround point followed by a golden age in the post-war boom.
In this lecture we look at a framework for understanding technological revolutions. There revolutions completely change societies and replace the old with new technologies. We will explore how these revolutions take place. We should now be in the golden age phase.
We also look at generations.
L07 Becoming Invisible
In the early days of product development, the technology is inferior and lacking in performance. The focus is very much on the technology itself. The users are enthusiast who like the idea of the product, find use for it, and except the lack of performance. Then as the product becomes more mature, other factors become important, such as price, design, features, portability. The product moves from being a technology to become a consumer item, and even a community.
In this lecture we explore the change from technology focus to consumer focus, and look at why people stand in line overnight to buy the latest gadgets.
L06 Diffusion of Innovation
This document summarizes a lecture about the diffusion of innovation. It discusses how new ideas are developed through collaboration and exchange. It also discusses how innovations diffuse slowly at first, gaining momentum over time as they are adopted by pragmatists and conservatives seeking convenient solutions. The rate of adoption follows an S-curve, with innovators and enthusiasts driving early adoption and the mass market adopting later. Customers' motivations for adoption change over time, initially valuing the innovation's benefits and later valuing its functionality. Factors like network effects, convenience, and compatibility influence adoption rates.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
