A company is like a baby, one leg representing business and the other standing for technology. Moving the first steps as a startup is hard, accelerating to run as a company is even harder: you have to grow up with both legs keeping pace
OpenMove will give its perspective on major challenges faced to bring the company to market its products in 6 countries, dealing with high-profile customers like Ministries of Transport or big telcos… guys you don’t wanna mess with!
On the business side, Lorenzo, CEO, will tell how they have been structuring product- and knowledge-management, business development (and some other super boring stuff), while Michele, CTO, will show the cool things: scalability and high availability of the platform adopting Docker Swarm, optimization by using Meteor.js and MongoDB and evolution towards an ecosystem of microservices.

Creating Smarter Cities 2011 - 04 - Rudolf Giffinger - VUT - The need for pla...Smart Cities Project
Because of different processes like economic restructuring, socio-demographic processes and technological progress cities are facing new challenges in the run of their recent trends of urbanization and metropolisation. These processes are assumed to have specific impacts on the cohesive territorial development in economic, social and spatial terms. As a consequence new strategic governance approaches became necessary steering development in different fields. In this context rankings have experienced a remarkable boom.
In front of this development, this paper concentrates first on the question how to define a ‘smart’ city which is able to cope with such challenges. Based on this understanding the own ranking approach („European Smart Cities“) is described systematically. Based on a hierarchical approach with a sample of relevant factors the paper describes in short how cities cope with the results and what are typical reactions of local governments and stakeholders. In this context two specific urban strategies for steering development and processes of learning in general, but especially with respect to urban governance, are discussed within this paper. Finally, the paper elaborates that here the buzz-word ‘smart’ is not used in an explicit technology perspective but in a clear place based understanding similar to the EU-Territorial Agenda 2020. Accordingly an outlook describes how ‘smart’ will be used and understood in a place based and territorial perspective including technological impacts.
This presentation offers a brief overview on the Smart Cities topic, providing some data and some useful insights about why new kind of cities are needed and at the same time presenting some trends that boost the emergence of new urban paradigms.

Creating Municipal ICT Architectures - A reference guide from Smart CitiesSmart Cities Project
E-government operations require citizens and external organisations to receive appropriate e-services, delivered by an organisation’s automated business processes and supported by information and communication technologies (ICT). This area of service management can be reinforced and strengthened, however, by using architectures: business architectures, information systems architectures, technology architectures and the processes used to produce them.
Architecture frameworks often are difficult concepts to understand. This publication is a collection of ideas about enterprise architecture which will contribute to people’s understanding of this subject. This publication answers some basic questions: What is an ICT architecture? What is the value of ICT architectures and how are they produced? Why should we bother with them? Using the enterprise architecture approach we show how architectures and the processes followed to produce them can help the development and improvement of e-government.

6G WILL UNLOCK THE POWER OF AI-FOR-EVERYTHINGMahbubul Alam
We envision 6G to offer revolutionary transformation which will usher in an era of connected built-in intelligent applications, services, and networks that will auto-provision end-to-end systems to guaranteed quality of services for an agreed service level agreement, ultra-high-speed data rate, surpassing that of last-mile wired connectivity, perceived zero-latency & deterministic jitter for human safety and mission-critical applications, extremely high reliability for essential services, high spectrum-bands for haptic, holographic, extensive multimedia streaming and more, connected artificial intelligence for autonomous functions and future unknown use cases, etc.
6G will be a key enabler for equitable wealth distribution and a major driver for the green economy. It will unleash the full potential for Industrial Revolution IE 5.0 which will focus on the co-operation between human and machine, as human intelligence works in harmony with cognitive computing and machines performs mundane, repetitive, error-prone tasks. By putting humans back into industrial production with 6G enabled collaborative robots a.k.a Cobots, workers will be upskilled to provide value-added tasks in production such as setting the strategy, provide oversight and add creative input, leading to massive customization & personalization for customers. In this talk, we will examine the state of AI and its potential role in 6G.
The Industrial Transformation is widely dependent on tech trends and the boom in technology 2023. It positively affects the technologies and growth of the transformation.
This overview is a compilation of my own storytelling experiences over the past 9 years, first assisting clients designing M2M devices and helping them navigate the carrier certification process, then aligning with emerging Middleware/IOT Cloud platform providers early in 2011. Since then I've consulted and assisted companies across many IOT market verticals and have delivered keynotes to many audiences including enterprises, Tier 2 and Tier 3 service providers, MSO's and Utility companies on how to deploy a carrier grade IOT service delivery model for the creation of new MRR models across all market verticals. Whether you are attempting to enter the market by aligning with an existing IOT ECO-System provider like AWS or would like to create your own, I hope you find this thought provoking and informative as we carve our way into the wild, wild future of digital transformation.

Discussions on “Mobile” are everywhere right now, from the street to the boardroom, and it provides a two-sided challenge for forward-thinking businesses. On one side, how can the organisation open up new ways of generating engagement and revenue from its customer base? On the other, how can it open up new ways of working for its employees that increase their productivity and improve retention of the best and brightest? Both of these potentially positive changes must be held up against increasing expectations of the protection of both customer and employee information and identity. Derek O’Carroll from Symantec will host this workshop by first presenting a viewpoint and leading a discussion into how this is being addressed today and possible forward-looking strategies.

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.
