The document discusses a new wireless network architecture called WiNG 5 that delivers more network capacity, resiliency, coverage and agility through distributed intelligence. Key points:
- WiNG 5 uses smart, network-aware access points that can directly communicate and route traffic for better performance compared to traditional hub-and-spoke architectures.
- This distributed approach reduces bottlenecks and allows individual transmissions along the most efficient path.
- The network can continue operating even if a wireless controller or switch fails, improving resilience.
- Motorola's solutions are designed to optimize performance when using Motorola mobile devices.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

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.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

applications, it can’t solve problems that are inherent to
network architecture. Bottlenecks and system outages
will still be pitfalls of most networks.
WAY TO DO That’s because most WLANs route all traffic, all QoS and
all security through a wireless controller. Simply adding
WIRELESS
access points isn’t enough to accommodate higher traffic.
If for instance you’re streaming video from a security
station or accessing high-resolution medical test results,
your data is exacting a heavy demand on the network
that in a traditional architecture would slow things down
for you and everyone else involved. And if a wireless
controller or a wired switch should happen to fail, users
throughout the network would experience the outage.
4. OUR
MOTOROLA
WLAN
SOLUTION
DOES THINGS
DIFFERENTLY.
With the same WiNG 5 network intelligence built-in to both
access points and controllers, the access points are smart
enough to communicate directly with each other to create
more efficient routes for network traffic. Data moves from one
access point straight to the next with full QoS and security,
so your users’ applications run quickly and seamlessly. Each
element of the network is aware of the others and their
status, and they work together to find the best routes through

direct and scale the network, individual transmissions can
take place via the shortest path.
And harnessing the power of the access points means you
need fewer wireless controllers, so Motorola’s WiNG 5
WLAN is able to deliver more of what you and your users
need with less infrastructure.

means you can trust the network with more demanding and
critical applications, knowing it won’t let your users down.
With a WiNG 5 WLAN, office workers on laptops won’t
have to worry about stalled applications when they need
them most. Any number of retail associates can use wireless
devices to process transactions and access information
without having to leave a customer’s side – even in busy
times, like the holiday shopping season.
As an added benefit, we’ve designed our WLAN access points
USING MOTOROLA to take advantage of special software features on Motorola
mobile computing devices that result in faster roaming, more
DEVICES stable connections and longer battery life.
Giving brainpower to the access points in addition to the
MORE controller does more than enable higher capacity. It also builds
in network survivability that proves invaluable if a part of the
RESILIENCE network is experiencing problems.
WiNG 5 WLAN access points are network-aware, so they can
easily reroute around components that are not operational or
are overloaded. If a wireless controller or wired switch goes
down, your network continues to run with full QoS, security and
mobility services. Your users may not even notice the outage.
Motorola WLAN access points and controllers also have a
3G card slot that enables backhaul switch-over to an outside
network in case of an outage, so that your users will still be
able to use the cloud-based applications that are critical to
many operations.

a problem, the application-aware WiNG 5 SMART RF system
makes smooth adjustments to power and channel settings
to fix it while minimizing the impact to sensitive voice and
video applications. Using our AirDefense Network Assurance
solution, you can also classify sources of interference and
troubleshoot intermittent problems with the help of detailed
historical data.

about whether to use a local or remote primary controller and
a local or remote back up controller within the same network.
So now you can build a wireless network that better fits your

To be agile, you need flexibility and speed. We’ve designed
the WiNG 5 WLAN so you can quickly deploy it without
reconfiguring your wired network VLANs. And access points

CAPABILITIES IN YOUR NEXT 802.11N
WLAN-AND IT SAVED YOU MONEY,
TOO?
The distributed intelligence of Motorola’s WiNG 5 WLAN
can reduce the initial capital spend, as well as operating
expenses. The savings result from several factors:
• Our access points have higher power and receiver
sensitivity, so fewer are needed to cover a service area.
And fewer wireless controllers are needed for a given
number of access points, translating into even greater
capital savings.
• The access points themselves have integrated security and
network troubleshooting sensors, so you don’t have to buy
a more expensive dedicated network of sensors.
• Our LANPlanner tool models and predicts your optimum
802.11n WLAN layout, allowing you to build a network
with just the right number of access points while still
maintaining full, even coverage.
• On the operations end of the budget, the AirDefense

problems, which results in fewer trips by technicians to
troubleshoot onsite.
