User Experience SIG Event
‘Context Awareness as the Digital Sixth Sense: The User Experience Challenge’ Billions of connected devices, input from multiple sensors, and sophisticated new software are at last making the long promised context awareness concept a reality. This “digital sixth sense” is beginning to enable portable devices to learn to predict the user’s needs in real-time, even without a specific request from the user. Although such capabilities are expected to bring great benefits to peoples' daily lives, the user experience provided by this new form of mediated interaction between users and devices will take time to evolve so that users are truly comfortable with it. Confirmed speakers are Peter Whale of Qualcomm, Rachel Jones of Instrata and Vuokko Lantz of Nokia Research Centre, Espoo (Finland). In addition, confirmed speakers for the 'Bring & Share' session are Dominic Pullen from Orange, Vaiva Kalnikaite from Dovetailed, Ken Blakeslee from WebMobility Ventures and Geoff McCormick from Alloy. This half day event will explore the challenges, opportunities and potential pitfalls we face with the help of experts in mobile technologies and the “Internet of Things”. more.. |

Joint ICT KTN and Academic and Industry SIG Event
'Academia and Industry Working Together: More than a letter of support' In the past the traditional approach to academic-industrial partnerships was for the academic to ask a company to write a letter supporting a grant proposal and then for both to quietly forget about each other until it was time to write the next grant proposal. In 2003 Henry Chesbrough published the classic book “Open innovation: the new imperative for creating and profiting from technology” which described successful industrial-academic partnerships and set out a vision for greater collaboration. ‘Academia and Industry Working Together’ will describe best practice for collaboration between industry and academia and how to increase the benefits to all partners, giving perspectives from different players within the open innovation environment, including academics, large industry, small companies, technology transfer offices and funding bodies. We look forward to a lively discussion! Confirmed speakers for this event are Professor Andy Hopper of Computer Lab - University of Cambridge, Julian Peck of Cambridge Enterprise and Neil Crockett of Connected Digital Economy Catapult. more.. |
