World Wide Technology walks through how Cisco ONE can enable businesses to maintain customer service and meet the needs of end users while continuing to improve hardware
stacks. Cisco ONE can help identify how many licenses
you own and how effectively they are being utilized.
Every three to five years, IT departments are forced
to throw away 40 to 60 percent of their investments to
acquire assets and software to run it because of
changes in hardware. With Cisco ONE, now you can
procure hardware and software separately and own
and maintain your software licenses perpetually.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
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.

"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.

• Option to buy perpetual via classic model remains (not taken away)
Editor's Notes
Welcome
Today, we will discuss how you can keep pace with the increase in mobile devices, and cloud applications in the branch
We’ll specifically discuss how mobility is driving both complexity and new opportunities in your business
And how your branch infrastructure strategy must evolve to drive to better business outcomes that result in lower costs, greater productivity, and higher customer engagement … all with operational simplicity.
However, the success measures of a business remain unchanged.
Customer loyalty leading to increased revenues and lower customer attrition are still an important success measure of the top line growth.
Superior customer service at all branches and stores will lead to higher customer satisfaction, repeat customers and thus increased same store/branch sales
Reduced costs are still an important measure of success of bottom line in the midst of all these disruptions
Higher productivity: higher employee productivity measured as either revenue per employee, faster turnaround time or by other means is an important success measure to stay competitive
Clearly, businesses need to rethink their approach to doing business in the presence of these disruptions. Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is not going to happen.
Organizations need expanded business capabilities to be successful now. Let us walk through a few capabilities in different industries.

In the current model, customers select a la carte, separately priced software features to build a solution. In some cases, the solution results in selecting 100’s of individual products and SKUs.
In the current model, software is tied to the hardware. That means software is tied to hardware. And software is purchased again at the time of hardware refresh,.
In the current model, customers were primarily buying infrastructure software as perpetual licenses for the lifetime of the box, tied to CAPX options only
Cisco ONE completely redefines how infrastructure software in bought, deployed and managed in industry…
Cisco ONE’s objective is to enable IT to deliver more business value. therefore, it simplifies the software purchase to software suites across Access, WAN, Data Center. Rather than 100’s of SKUs, customers will choose one or more suites.
Cisco ONE software is not tied to a box and is portable across generations of hardware boxes. Also gives you physical and virtual deployment options.
Cisco ONE also enables IT to keep innovating by giving them access to software upgrades and new capabilities that will be added to the software suites
Cisco ONE transforms that buying experience by adding subscription and Enterprise Licensing Agreement to perpetual licenses for the software suites. This provides flexibility and financial predictability to customers
This chart provides more detail into the individual Cisco ONE Software products: Data Center, WAN, and Access.
Better Together Pricing
Cisco® ONE Software helps customers purchase the right software capabilities to address their business needs. These products offer a greater value to customers with more features at “better together” pricing. They deliver reduced complexity, simplified buying, and the peace of mind that today’s software investments will last into the future.
Access to ongoing innovation means that as we add more features into these software products, customers gain access to those upgrades in the suites they have licensed.
For instance, Cisco acquired JouleX last year, which provides energy management capabilities. In the past, customers would need to buy the software from Cisco to receive this new capability. With Cisco ONE software, customers who have a SWSS contract would be automatically entitled to this new upgrade. This is how other software and SaaS companies like Microsoft and Salesforce.com operate, constantly giving customers more value from their software.
Software license portability allows customers to keep their software licenses across hardware refresh cycles, and gives them flexibility to move these licenses between physical devices and virtual machines.
Cisco software provides flexibility and agility in enabling customers to consume our technologies in the way that works best for them. (i.e. not JUST buying the system that comes with the sw but having the option to choose whatever software suite is right for them, having the option to deploy it in any way they want (on prem, cloud, managed service), and having the option to purchase that perpetually or as a subscription, as an enterprise-wide license, buying ahead for future years, paying over time.
Last but not least we’re introducing new sw porfolios in our IoE application platforms, extending the edge through fog computing and a very rich data virtualization and analytics capability.
And underpinning all of this capability is what we’re calling Cisco ONE Software – that’s the software that really brings our infrastructure to life across the data center, WAN and access.
