Advance CRT Keynote - 10 May 2022 - AJF.pdfAdrian Friday
Keynote for https://www.advance-crt.ie - really interesting interdisciplinary doctoral training centre in Ireland. In the talk I address the magnitude of the challenge facing us. Why I believe technology is important in addressing this. Why I think dominant IoT narratives are wrong, and are in fact inherently limited in their view of possible gains and also impacts. I'll then address my thoughts on whether IoT really can help save the planet, and some closing discussion on things to consider to ensure that ongoing and future work is appropriately framed.
Les jeunes entreprises doivent devenir une prioritéThierry Labro
Le rapport de l'OCDE indique que si la création d’emplois est l’objectif principal des décideurs politiques, il faudrait réduire les obstacles au démarrage de l’activité, ouvrir l’accès et mettre à niveau des dispositifs tels que le crédit d’impôt recherche (CIR), afin de permettre aux jeunes entreprises de réaliser leur potentiel de croissance.

A Priori Relevance Based On Quality and Diversity Of Social SignalsIsmail BADACHE
This document summarizes a research paper that studied using social signals from networks to enhance document retrieval. It investigated how the diversity and quality of social signals associated with documents impacts relevance. The researchers hypothesized that documents with an equitable distribution of signals from different networks would be more relevant than documents dominated by a single signal. They proposed methods to estimate signal diversity and evaluated their approach on an IMDb dataset containing documents and relevance judgments, outperforming baselines that did not consider social signals or their properties.

4. Conclusions
2. Vernadsky’s original noosphere theory
The “noosphere” may be seen as the quot;sphere of human
thought,quot; derived from the Greek word (quot;nousquot;)
meaning quot;mind,quot; in the same manner (understanding)
as the terms quot;atmospherequot; and quot;biospherequot;. In
Vernadsky’s original theory, the “noosphere” is the
third in a succession of phases in the Earth’s
evolution, preceded by first, the geosphere (inanimate
matter) and then the biosphere (biological life)
Came from Vernadsky (1922)
3. 1. Концепция Ноосфери (“Ноос” – разум, “сфера” – оболочка Земли)
В.И. Вернадский, Сорбона, 1922
2. “Ноосфера - стадия развития биосферы
(среды обитания), связанная с активной ролью в ней человека”.
Эдуард Ле-Руа, 1927 г.
3. Учение, связывающее естествознание (биосферологию) с наукой
об обществе
Пьер Тейяр де Шарден, 1928
“Человечество в ходе своего развития превращается
в мощную геологическую силу, своей мыслью и
трудом преобразующую лик планеты. Оно, в целях
своего сохранения, должно взять на себя
ответственность за развитие биосферы,
превращающуюся в ноосферу, а это потребует от
него определенной социальной организации и новой,
экологической и, одновременно, гуманистической
этики”
В.И. Вернадский, 1944 г.
4. Основные этапы формирования
концепции устойчивого
развития:
q 1970-е годы – создание Римского клуба, IIASA (Австрия),
Институтa системных исследований (СССР),
Международной федерации институтов перспективных
исследований ;
q 1972 - Конференция ООН по окружающей среде
(Стокгольм);
q 1980 – Принятие Всемирной стратегии охраны природы
(ВСОП – ООН);
q 1991 – Вторая редакция ВСОП «Забота о планете Земля –
Стратегия устойчивой жизни (ООН)»;
q 1992–I-й Всемирный Саммит ООН по SD (Рио Д. Ж);
q 2002–II-й Всемирный Саммит ООН по SD (Йоханесб.).
5. Концепция устойчивого развития –
переход от одномерного развития к его гармонизации
по трем составляющим:
- экономической;
- экологической;
- социальной.
Начало этого процесса 1970 – е годы.
6. “System coordination of

51. Conclusions
n A system of measuring (metrics) of sustainable development
was worked out which allows quantitatively estimate this
process depending on the groups of economic, ecological and
social indicators and datasets.
n Based on the mathematical model of sustainable development
the impact of information society on sustainable development
was studied in the global and regional scale.
n In using the SDGM, a close interrelation is revealed between the
characteristics of sustainable development and the
characteristics of the demographic situation.
n The created tool allows develop recommendations regarding the
ways of improving the standards of quality and safety of life in
concrete countries and regions of the world due to the
improvement of the information society parameters and
competitive growth.
