In passato ci volevano vent'anni per creare un business da un miliardo di dollari.
Groupon l'ha fatto in diciotto mesi !
Quella che abbiamo davanti è una nuova tipologia di aziende: le "organizzazioni esponenziali", che polverizzano i tempi di crescita mediante le tecnologie, e contemporaneamente riducendo i costi in modo esponenziale.Le Organizzazioni Esponenziali sono quelle organizzazioni che hanno saputo sfruttare queste opportunità, orientandosi verso un paradigma basato sulla tecnologia.
Stessa storia è successa a Nokia, azienda finlandese colosso della telefonia mobile che, dopo l’avvento nel 2007 dell’Iphone (uno degli episodi più rappresentativi della storia del business) decise di investire - due anni dopo (2009) - ben 8,1 miliardi di dollari in Navteq, la prima azienda a commercializzare dati di navigazione e mappatura stradale.
Navteq controllava quattrocentomila chilometri di sensori del traffico in 35 grandi città e 13 Paesi. L’azienda finlandese era convinta che investire in questo asset sarebbe stata la scelta “strategica” migliore per respingere l’avanzata di Google e Apple e rafforzare la propria quota di mercato.
Poi un giorno, in Israele, nasceva Waze che, invece di puntare sulle infrastrutture fisiche, raccoglieva i dati e le informazioni che gli utenti, attraverso gli smartphone, inviavano in tempo reale. Il costo marginale (ossia ogni fonte in più di informazione) era pari a 0, a differenza del sistema messo su da Nokia. Il resto della storia già la conosciamo.
Il successo di Waze e delle Organizzazioni Esponenziali è dovuto a due fattori chiave:
L’accesso a risorse non di proprietà
L’informazione è l’asset migliore
Siamo in un’epoca in cui ogni aspetto della nostra vita si sta informatizzando e l’ambiente intorno a noi crea infinite opportunità. Anche le organizzazioni nei mercati più tradizionali devono esser pronte a cambiar pagina se vogliono sopravvivere !
What is happening in the world of technology? What can we expect to see in the next 15 years? Chris Chirgwin, CEO of Lanspeed, will walk you through it.
Fast, Distributed Geoprocessing with Scala, Spark and GeoTrellisVisionGEOMATIQUE2014
What got you hooked on geospatial? For me it was more than just maps – it was the ability to transform geographic data to see something new or shed light on some aspect of my environment.
Whether you use GDAL, ArcGIS, GRASS or IDRISI, we have usually done this type of data transformation with a variety of desktop software tools. So why have these types of capabilities been relatively rare in web and mobile applications? Speed and scalability are two important factors. It has generally required too much time to calculate a viewshed, combine a stack of raster files into a weighted overlay, or generate slope and aspect from elevation data.
Azavea has been working on this problem – fast, scalable geoprocessing – for several years. In 2012 we released a new open source project called GeoTrellis (http://geotrellis.io/), an open source framework for fast, distributed geoprocessing. GeoTrellis leverages the strong type system and functional programming style of the Scala language and the Spark and Akka frameworks.
This talk will give an overview of GeoTrellis and how it can be integrated with web mapping tools to create online geoprocessing applications for stormwater modeling, education games, infrastructure prioritization, climate change, and transportation.

Every Monday someone in the company gives a 5-10 min talk on something that's on their mind. This week I took some time to reflect on 5 trends in technology that I think are very likely to shape the next ten years of our lives
It has been said that Mobiles +Cloud + Social + Big Data = Better Run The World. IBM has invested over $20 billion since 2005 to grow its analytics business, many companies will invest more than $120 billion by 2015 on analytics, hardware, software and services critical in almost every industry like ; Healthcare, media, sports, finance, government, etc.
It has been estimated that there is a shortage of 140,000 – 190,000 people with deep analytical skills to fill the demand of jobs in the U.S. by 2018.

Finally we had lovely workshop with the participants trying to find out different ways to think about quality and testing in different parts of the DevOps infinity loop.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.
