    Edition: First edition.
    Keywords: Internet of things ; Computer networks ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Data traffic has increased roughly 60 percent annually over the past two decades, according to one estimate. But that's nothing compared to the Internet of Things, a network of billions of "chatty machines" that will soon produce vast amounts of additional data. How prepared is your organization to handle the traffic expected from all your smart machines and sensors? In this O'Reilly report, Mike Barlow interviews several industry experts about the challenges and opportunities that businesses, organizations, and individuals in every sector of the economy will face in the next few years. Barlow explores options that include edge computing (running analytics at or near devices and machines), upgrading last-mile network links, working with software-defined networks (SDNs), and looking at solutions from the emerging smart city movement. If your organization is involved with the nascent IoT or its larger cousin, the Industrial Internet, this is one report you can't afford to ignore.

    Edition: First edition.
    Keywords: Transportation ; Information technology ; Transportation ; Data processing ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Hold on, because we're entering the age of smart transportation at astonishing speed. By 2020, roughly one in every five vehicles (250 million) will be on the road. Within the next 10 years, the very idea of manually operating a car, truck, ship, plane, or train may seem old fashioned, as the overarching trend will be toward greater automation at every level of transportation. Are we ready for it? In this report, Mike Barlow examines the autonomous vehicle ecosystem through interviews with several technology firms, including Cloudera, that are busy working on various aspects of connected transportation. Vehicles in motion-on land, in the air, or on the sea-will generate and transmit huge quantities of data to transportation infrastructure (roads, bridges, traffic signals), and other vehicles. The data from your car, in fact, may soon be more valuable than the car itself. Get a copy of this report and learn how the vehicles of tomorrow (or maybe the day after tomorrow) will impact mobility management, safety, vehicle management, operator well-being, entertainment, and even the way cities are designed.

    Not all data is created equal : balancing risk and reward in a data-driven economy (2016)
    Sebastopol, CA : O'Reilly Media
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume) , illustrations
    Keywords: Data mining ; Database searching ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Though data is increasingly seen as a source of power and wealth, very few organizations today realize what they have. Companies collect an astonishing volume and variety of data, but most of them lack the skills and experience needed to identify and gauge the value of these assets. And so they tend to give all of their data equal weight. In this O'Reilly report, Greg Fell and Mike Barlow examine the risks and financial costs organizations face when they treat all data equally. Through interviews with several industry experts, you'll get advice for determining the value of the data you collect, depending on who in your company is using it, how and where it's being used, and when and why they're using it. Pick up a copy of this report to learn the "5Ws and 1H" of data usage, the C-I-A (confidentiality, integrity, and availability) approach for managing data risk, seven core strategies for monetizing data, and a method for mapping the risk/reward tradeoffs of your data.

    Abstract: Artificial intelligence has made enormous progress in the last five years, and after a decade of texting and messaging on smartphones, people have become comfortable with conversational interfaces. Put together, those two trends mean we'll soon be chatting with conversational bots: intelligent software designed to make you feel as though you're talking to a real person. Chatbots are able to automate human tasks by translating fluidly between unstructured language and structured data. Imagine a customer service chat via instant message, email, or voice where the bot has answers before you can ask the question. In this report, authors Jon Bruner and Mike Barlow examine the promise of chatbots, as well as the challenges they face. Driven by recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI), chatbots have a bright future in customer relations, healthcare, games and entertainment, and worker productivity (picture a bot as your personal assistant). Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella recently declared that, "bots are the new apps." Browse this report and explore today's emerging chatbot landscape, including: Why chatbots now? -Understand the factors behind the rise of bots, some of their use cases, and questions still to be answered. Messaging platforms/frameworks for bots -Amazon Alexa, Apple Siri, Facebook Messenger, Google Now and Google Assistant, Microsoft Bot Framework, and more AI Platforms and Frameworks for bots -Api.ai, Google TensorFlow, IBM Watson Conversation, Wit.ai, and scikit-learn Real-world examples -Burger King, Fidelity Investments, Amtrak, Cobalt (CRM), Troops, and more

    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume)
    Edition: First edition.
    Keywords: Internet ; Internet ; Moral and ethical aspects ; Computer crimes ; Investigation ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Just beneath the very busy, public Web is a shadowy realm largely untouched by search engines. This is the dark net-a hidden place where individuals and groups seek anonymity. It provides sanctuary for people living under authoritarian regimes, consumers tired of being treated as digital marketing assets, and cyber criminals looking to infiltrate corporate networks undetected. In this O'Reilly report, authors Greg Fell and Mike Barlow explore both the benign and malevolent activities of the dark net (and the dark Web). For people who want to control their digital identities, new email servers and browsers ensure privacy. But for criminals, the dark net is an ideal place to steal and store vital information with impunity. Learn about the surprising origin of the dark net, and find out how you can patrol this not-so-secret domain to detect and thwart intruders.

    The resurgence of C programming : do you still need to write code to build cool machines? (2016)
    Sebastopol, CA : O'Reilly Media
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume)
    Edition: First edition.
    Keywords: C (Computer program language) ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Although high-level languages such as Java and Python are popular choices among programmers, there's a lot of renewed interest in the venerable C language. In this report, Mike Barlow examines how the widespread use of embedded software, and the emergence of the maker movement and open-source hardware, have led people back to the language that maps more efficiently to machine instructions. Through interviews with a dozen technology leaders, educators, makers, and embedded software developers, you'll learn about many examples that demonstrate C's ubiquity, especially as the lines between software development and hardware design become less distinct. Embedded software developers who work on devices for Internet of Things find C/C++ indispensable, but so do people who tackle custom hardware projects with Arduino or Raspberry Pi. Pick up a copy of this report and learn how C/C++ enables programmers to extract maximum performance from the underlying hardware resources-especially in situations where you need real-time performance.

    Keywords: Internet of things ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Ambitious plans are underway to create the Industrial Internet, but as this O'Reilly report explains, the attempt to marry the Internet with the world's industrial platforms faces significant challenges that resist easy solutions. This cyber-physical coupling is like trying to engineer a complex new life form, using pre-existing parts that weren't designed to work together. But there is progress. Author Mike Barlow explores how groups such as the Industrial Internet Consortium and the Global City Teams Challenge are working to create a firm structure for the Industrial Internet that includes rules and principles, rather than repeating the serendipitous nature of the Internet. The Industrial Internet isn't just another tech fad. It's the beginning of a new chapter in human history. Will it advance the dream of universal prosperity, or quickly mutate into a chaotic and dangerous "Internet of unsafe things?" Pick up this free report and learn how industrial groups are working to make this dream come true.

    Abstract: Predictive maintenance isn't a new idea. For decades, people in heavy industry have dreamt of eliminating costly machine breakdowns and unplanned system downtime. Now that the data revolution has finally made predictive maintenance feasible, the possibilities seem endless. This O'Reilly report examines how the combination of advanced analytics, low-cost sensors, and the IoT promises to elevate maintenance from a cost center to a profit center. Through interviews with several industry experts, award-winning journalist Mike Barlow reveals that predictive maintenance is more than merely a tool or solution- it's an integrated business strategy. Plant managers can run equipment longer at less cost, VPs can optimize operations in general, and C-suite executives can turn those efficiencies into market advantages and real profits. Many IT, manufacturing, healthcare, and energy firms already practice predictive maintenance, but companies in other industries need time and expertise to pursue the large-scale data collection, advanced analysis, machine learning, and automation required to make it work. This report explores the possible rewards and caveats of this innovative model. Mike Barlow is an award-winning journalist, author, communications strategy consultant, and cofounder of Cumulus Partners.

    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume) , illustrations
    Keywords: Ambient intelligence ; Human-computer interaction ; Computers ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Consider this scenario: You walk into a building and a sensor identifies you through your mobile phone. You then receive a welcoming text telling you when lunch will be served, or perhaps a health warning based on allergy information you've stored in your profile. Maybe you'll be flagged as a security threat. How is that possible? This O'Reilly report explores ambient computing-hands-free, 24/7 wireless connectivity to hardware, data, and IT systems. Enabling that scenario requires a lot of work behind the scenes to determine network connectivity, device security, and personal privacy. With an ambient-computing technology stack already in the works, resolving those issues is only a matter of time. Through interviews with front-line tech pioneers-including Ari Gesher (Kairos Aerospace) and Matthew Gast (Aerohive Networks)-author Mike Barlow explores how real-time analytics can enable real-time decision making. How will simple beacons broadcast information to your phone as you pass businesses on your morning walk? How can emotional speech analysis monitor the emotional state of employees, students, or people in crowds? Pick up this report and find out.
