This document discusses how connecting devices to the internet through IoT and analyzing the data through connected service experiences (CSX) can enable companies to have more proactive post-purchase relationships with customers. Specifically, it outlines 30 measurable business cases for how IoT and CSX can help companies lower costs, increase revenue, improve customer satisfaction and safety, and gain a competitive advantage by enabling predictive monitoring of products and proactive interventions. The document argues that preventing issues before customers complain is less expensive than reacting to complaints, and near real-time analysis of device data through CSX allows companies to take proactive actions that improve productivity, uptime, and aftermarket sales.
Viii. molecular electronics and nanoscienceAllenHermann
This document discusses molecular electronics and nanoscience. It begins by explaining why molecular electronics is an important area of research, as Moore's Law means devices will soon reach the molecular scale. It then describes two approaches to fabrication: top-down, continuing to shrink bulk semiconductor devices; and bottom-up, designing molecules with electronic function that can self-assemble. The document discusses various molecular systems and materials that could form the basis for single-molecule devices, including examples of molecules that could act as switches, sensors, or memory cells. It also reviews techniques for measuring conduction at the single-molecule level.
1) The document discusses how the authors of a student film ensured continuity in their psychological thriller film through careful planning of camera shots and editing. This included matching actions, obeying the 180 degree rule, and using cross-cutting to solve issues.
2) Sound continuity also presented difficulties but were addressed through editing out background noises and smoothing audio transitions between scenes.
3) The film subverts expectations by revealing the wife, not the husband, is the killer at the end, shocking the audience with this twist.

This document provides an introduction to IPsoft, an IT service management company:
- IPsoft claims to reduce IT management costs by over 30% and resolve over 56% of problems without manual intervention through their autonomic toolsuite. They also typically reduce mean time to resolution by 60% and underwrite the cost savings from day one.
- IPsoft was founded in 1998 and is profitable. They offer ITSM as a service in North America, Europe and Asia through direct and indirect sales with operational centers in several cities worldwide.
- The document discusses how IPsoft's autonomic solutions can transform IT support by providing autonomous level 1 support and assistance at higher levels to reduce reliance on staff.
The document discusses different approaches an IT services company can take to incubate emerging technologies and build capabilities around them. It describes three main approaches: the "deep dive first" approach where R&D explores a technology in-depth before bringing it to delivery units; the "hand in hand" approach where R&D and delivery units collaborate early in the process; and crowdsourcing challenges to the organization. It provides examples of how these approaches have worked or not worked for technologies like cloud computing, enterprise mobility, location intelligence and IoT. The document advocates that a collaborative approach involving both R&D and delivery units early on tends to be most effective for technology adoption.

This document discusses instruction level parallelism (ILP) and how it can be used to improve performance by overlapping the execution of instructions through pipelining. ILP refers to the potential overlap among instructions within a basic block. Factors like dynamic branch prediction and compiler dependence analysis can impact the ideal pipeline CPI and number of data hazard stalls. Loop level parallelism refers to the parallelism available across iterations of a loop. Data dependencies between instructions, if not properly handled, can limit parallelism and require instructions to execute in order. The three types of data dependencies are data, name, and control dependencies.
Office 365 security concerns, EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Sonja Madsen
Office 365 provides access to information from different devices not only from secure office locations,
but also from just about any location in the world. Data security, governance and compliance are the biggest concerns.
This talk is about the robust security that is built into Office 365: data loss prevention,
mobile device management, password and multi-factor authentication, message encryption,
EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Rights Management Service.
Strategic planning. You know you should be doing more of it. But the way you normally do it requires lots of up-front time to do and lots of follow-up time to get buy-in. And frankly, you have trouble with the buy-in part. All that trouble, minimal follow-through.
Great strategic planning processes are lightweight and participatory. This is nice-to-have for organizations, and it's critical for networks, where you don't have the benefit of hierarchy to influence its behavior. Networks will do what they do.
In this Leadership Learning Community webinar, I describe how to do strategic planning for networks. I draw heavily from my experience leading the open strategic planning process for the Wikimedia movement, which drew over 1,000 participants and led to a movement-wide shift in focus on increasing reach and participation in developing countries. I share how you can leverage these types of processes for both your network and your organization
"Shift-Left." Performance And Architecture Validation with Continuous Integra...DevOps.com
For DevOps efforts to be a true success, it’s crucial to have real-time performance monitoring and metrics that can be reviewed and shared across teams. By accessing real-time and historical metrics, from architecture and application performance, to customer experience and business metrics – you can ensure you are meeting all of your technology and business objectives. Electric Cloud and Dynatrace have partnered up to bring tight integrations to your CI/CD and release pipelines, with ElectricFlow and Dynatrace AppMon. Dynatrace AppMon’s test automation integration stops bad code in its tracks by inspecting key performance and architectural metrics. Now, if a deployment makes it into production but shows problems, the ElectricFlow integration allows AppMon to trigger an automatic rollback or other actions to make sure the system can self-heal. Teammates can collaborate easier and faster, with shared insights, and leaders benefit from knowing that everyone is aligned and moving toward the same goals. In this webinar, we will give a live demonstration on release automation by pushing code changes through the ElectricFlow pipeline.

Investigating Business Models for Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV)Leonardo ENERGY
Solar cells (photovoltaics, PV) for electricity generation is forecasted to become one of the main contributors in the future energy system. Better building integration of PV (BIPV) is desired for aesthetical reasons and potentially also for cost savings. As of now, BIPV is generally more expensive than ordinary building applied PV installations (BAPV) or regular building components, which means there is a need to include other values in BIPV business models. This webinar presents the results from an inventory of existing business models and case studies, performed within the work of IEA-PVPS Task 15.

Although the installation of HVAC zone controls, optimising controllers (for Wet Heating Systems) and lighting controls is encouraged by the building codes, their requirements are basic. As a result, specifications are often limited to the minimum requirements, and superior technologies, such as pre-programmed packaged Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS) and Demand Control Ventilation (DCV), are ignored.

Technical Assumptions Used in PV Financial Models: Review of Current Practice...Leonardo ENERGY
Photovoltaic (PV) financial models are used by project developers, banks and asset managers to evaluate the profitability of a PV project. This work presents an overview of current practices for financial modelling of PV investments and reviews them in view of technical and financial risks during the different phases of a PV project. This webinar presents the results from the International Energy Agency (IEA) Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme (PVPS) Task 13 Subtask 1. The webinar focuses on establishing common practices for translating the technical parameters of performance and reliability into financial terms. The presentations give a comprehensive set of practical guidelines and recommendations for mitigating and hedging financial risks in a PV investment.
