IoT Edge Intelligence - The need for new software development approachesBart Jonkers
CeBIT 2016 talk on "IoT Edge Intelligence - The need for new software development approaches".
In order to bridge the 'IoT skills gap' or solve the 'IT vs OT' divide, the IoT market needs to enable traditional IT developers to move into the OT (operational technology) world. In the OT world, devices, gateways and machines run embedded software on proprietary operating systems, using unfamiliar communications protocols in resource constraint environments. To enable a large community of developers to build intelligent IoT edge applications, abstraction from these domain specific technologies and complexities is required. Bitreactive offers visual developer tooling to highly simplify the application development on devices and the way edge devices integrate to IoT sensors, cloud services, analytics, visualization services etc.
(Some technologies supported: MQTT, AMQP, BLE, Zigbee, OPC-UA, Paho, Californium, Kura, Coap, JSON-RPC, LoRA, Bluetooth, IBM Bluemix, IBM IoT Foundation, Microsoft Azure, AWS, Oracle IoT Cloud Service, GE Predix, GE Predix machine, Xively, Solair, Geofencing, Modbus, GPIO, RaspberryPI, XMPP, Eurotech Reliagate, Eurotech ESF, PLC, SCADA, DELL 5000, Intel IoT gateway, Multitech conduit, Java SE, openJDK, OSGi, Kura, Eclipse IoT, Embedded Java, Oauth 2.0, alternative to Node Red)
Solving Industrial Data Integration with Machine IntelligenceBit Stew Systems
Bit Stew Systems offers the premier platform that is leveraging machine intelligence to solve the data integration challenge in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
The Impact of IoT on Cloud Computing, Big Data & AnalyticsSyam Madanapalli
IoT Applications are different from typical enterprise applications; and most of the companies are hijacking what the IoT is depending on the what products/solutions they offer. I put up my point of view on how the IoT impacts the traditional Cloud Computing and Big Data Analytics. The takeaway from this presentation is IoT requires realtime computing as the data moves from the physical world to the cyber world (Cloud) to take actions at spatiotemporal location.
Analytics is becoming increasingly important for industrial companies. Solving the data integration challenge is the foundation of an analytics strategy and platform. The integration platform must be versatile in ingesting any data type from any data source of any quality level.

Today's digital enterprises are seeing an explosion of data at the edge. The Internet of Everything is fast approaching a critical mass that will demand a sea change in how companies process data. This new world of information is widely distributed, streaming, and overall becoming too big to move. Experts predict that within two to three years, the bulk of analytic processing will take place on the fringes of information architectures. As a result, forward-thinking companies are dramatically shifting their analytic strategies.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to hear veteran Analyst Mark Madsen of Third Nature explain how a new era of information architectures is now unfolding, paving the way to much more responsive and agile business models. He'll be briefed by Kim Macpherson of the Cisco Data and Analytics Business Unit, who will explain how her company's platform is uniquely suited for this new, federated analytic paradigm. She'll demonstrate how edge analytics can help companies address opportunities quickly and effectively.

8 years later, Vermont's 100 digital coverage still incomplete.
This is an Emergency Broadband Action Plan (EBAP). It was prepared by the Vermont Department of Public Service in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.1 The internet has become the highway to essential everyday services. It is also key to a vibrant economy. And now the COVID-19 pandemic has forced this new clarity about the internet: it can keep people safe during a public health emergency. On March 25, 2020, Governor Scott issued an executive order directing Vermonters to stay home and stay safe. The EBAP seeks to ensure that all Vermonters have access to the internet at home when a public emergency requires that we shelter in place, whether during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, or during a natural disaster such as Tropical Storm Irene. Today, 23% of the state -- comprising 69,899 business and residential locations -- presently does not have access to broadband at 25/3 Mbps – the service speed that defines “broadband” under federal law.2 At this time, nobody knows when the public health threat of the COVID-19 virus will be suppressed, if not defeated. It is unclear when a vaccine will become available, or whether we will face yet new waves of contagion and mass illness that will force more sheltering at home and again shut down the public square and our economy. What we do know is that universal broadband access can provide the flexibility to meet this uncertainty with confidence that no one will be left behind for want of access to the internet.
#GreenMountainRepublicans #VermontUniversalRecyclingLaws #VermontCompostingLaws
It’s the law – and if you throw food scraps in the trash after July 1, you’re breaking it.
"That's because, as of July 1, 2020, the last phase of Act 148 will become law, which bans the last sector of food scraps from landfills -- the ones from your kitchen's garbage pail -- in favor of mandatory composting.
Vermont passed the law in 2012 and has been phasing in various parts ever since, the last of which passed into law on July 1, 2017 and required transfer stations and waste haulers to accept food scraps separate from trash. It also required places likes restaurants or other businesses that produced at least 18 tons per year (1/3 ton/week) to separate out their food waste to be composted at any certified facility within 20 miles."

From 2010—the first full year after the official end of the Great Recession—to 2018, Vermont’s economy, as measured by gross state product, grew at less than one-third the rate of the country’s overall. Vermont’s annual growth rate, after adjusting for inflation, averaged 0.7 percent per year, compared with 2.3 percent for the U.S. That was also slower than Vermont’s own annual growth rate during the previous recovery (2002-07), which was 1.8 percent. From 2017 to 2018 Vermont’s real GSP grew by 1.2 percent.

OneCare is seeking approval of its $1.43 billion budget. The accountable care organization presented the budget last month, and the Green Mountain Care Board will vote on it in December. It’s also asking for funds that must be approved by the Legislature.
Gov. Peter Shumlin signed a deal with the federal government Thursday that will set up a unified health system in Vermont that officials call an all-payer model.
Shumlin signed the contract in his ceremonial office with watery eyes, and thanked his administration, the Green Mountain Care Board, hospitals, and community health centers for cementing the agreement.

After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
