GrayMeta_ The Variety of Data Could be Your Biggest Challenge _ Media & Enter...Aaron Edell
Aaron Edell of GrayMeta discussed challenges with big data at a metadata event. He argued the variety of data, not just volume, poses problems. Different file types and metadata structures make data difficult to combine, search, and derive value from. Media companies must address the three V's - velocity, volume, and variety - when managing content. Extracting data without altering it, making it searchable, and considering future needs can help solve these issues.
Peer to peer (P2P) file sharing began with Napster in 1999, allowing users to share files through a centralized network. This was challenged by the RIAA for enabling sharing of copyrighted music. Later systems like Kazaa used decentralized networks, reducing liability. While P2P was seen as negatively impacting music sales, others argued it encouraged concert tickets and that copyright law was restricting creativity and innovation. Debate continues over balancing copyright holders' rights with open culture and sharing.
1) The UK has over 422,000 CCTV cameras, with 1 camera for every 14 people in London. The NSA gathered personal data from thousands of individuals by accessing information from private organizations.
2) Proposed legislation like ACTA, SOPA, and PIPA aimed to establish frameworks for monitoring online piracy but raised concerns about threats to privacy and free speech.
3) Web 2.0 technologies and ubiquitous smart devices allow for constant surveillance and tracking of individuals, while also facilitating information sharing and connection on a global scale.

The document discusses how recent NSA surveillance program revelations have negatively impacted the technology industry and cloud computing. It summarizes that the NSA collected data from major tech companies without consent, details some of their surveillance programs, and reviews the legal and economic fallout, including two conflicting court rulings on the programs' constitutionality. Recent estimates suggest the NSA actions could cost the US tech industry between $35-180 billion over the next three years due to lost foreign business and erosion of trust in US cloud services.
The document discusses internet safety and children's use of technology. It provides statistics that show most children now use computers and have access to the internet. It also outlines regulations around protecting children's privacy online, such as the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act. However, it notes tech companies argue too much regulation could negatively impact innovation. The document advocates for open communication between parents and children about responsible internet use and safety measures like using filtering software.
This document summarizes a presentation on big data given by Sir Mark Walport, the UK's Chief Scientific Adviser. It discusses the opportunities and risks of big data, including how it can improve health and infrastructure but also enable privacy violations. While data can be anonymized, it is difficult to fully protect privacy due to the ability to match anonymous data with other public datasets. Both utopian and dystopian futures are possible depending on how data is governed and balanced with individual privacy. Moving forward will require advances in technology, open communication, and governance measures to control data access.
4. Search the Web for uses of Big Data in homeland security. Specifi.pdfsktambifortune
4. Search the Web for uses of Big Data in homeland security. Specifically, read about the spying
by the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA). What role did technology and Big Data play in this
questionable practice?
Solution
Homeland Security Research Corp. forecast that the big data and data analytics in Homeland
Security and Public Safety market will be spear headed by rapid growth in Asia Pacific and
Europe, with CAGR in the low 20s for both regions, especially due to the Chinese and Western
European homeland security and public safety markets.
The U.S. National Security Agency spying on the all over world by analyzing the data i.e the
data it may come from social media or from any company. The NSA spy on all accounts as many
ways its possible. Recently Snow den that he reveal the information regarding the NSA’s secret
operations.
He mentioned that NSA developed a separate search engine type algorithm that it displays the
every possible key of the given query. Through these available data they analyzed the suspect.
And also through these search engine they directly connect our personal devices without our
permission.
The main Example is they connect with our personal smart phone without our permission they
activate our phone camera and watch what we are doing there. These mainly disturb our personal
life..
Presented an abridged version of my "What is data science" talk at #websummit 2013.
This talk goes over the required skillset as defined by Drew Conway and his famous venn diagram, and also outlines the Data Scientific Method brought by Dr. Patil. The talk is mainly two parts and the second part goes over some of the packages and technologies we use — minus the storage part.
A set of slides from my closing keynote at DamnData. I go over the concept of the Data Scientific Method, the skills required for a data scientists from hacking, to maths and stats, to expertise to business knowledge. I also talk about some ideas we worked on, some tools we use, some technologies and the most important part, the questioning of the data.
The Artful Business of Data Mining: Computational Statistics with Open Source...David Coallier
This talk goes over a concepts of data mining and data analysis using open source tools, mainly Python and R with interesting libraries and the tools I have used and currently use at Engine Yard.
The document discusses the future of PHP, including new features in PHP 5.4 like namespaces, closures, and traits. It covers emerging technologies like NoSQL databases and PaaS cloud platforms. It emphasizes focusing on users, adopting new technologies, and contributing to open source communities.
The document discusses building applications in the cloud and the benefits this provides including global availability, elasticity, ability to handle increased traffic, and easier updates. It also notes some challenges like components potentially failing and costs that may be higher or lower than expected. The document advocates building independently scalable services that can heal themselves and have deployments integrated into the application.
The state of the PHP world has been most precarious over the past few years and many developers moved over to other languages and other technologies because PHP was lacking something that other emerging techs were providing.
With the rise of cloud computing, cutting edge frameworks and amazing platforms, PHP can be sexy again. This talk aims at giving an idea of how PHP, as a language and a community, evolved over the past few years and how to refocus our energy to solve today's and tomorrow's problems rather than contemplating the success of our past. We have to adapt to change and this talk will help the listeners with the transition by providing then with insight into: Cloud Computing, PaaS, upcoming frameworks as such as Zend Framework2, Symfony2, Lithium, and many more aspects of this rapidly changing software ecosystem.
The document discusses the author's views that cloud alone is lacking, frameworks have issues, and that their company Orchestra aims to be more than just a product by focusing on passion, involvement, and lifestyle while also meeting enterprise needs like SLAs and support. The author believes successfully building a product requires avoiding common mistakes and moving to a platform like EngineYard.
The document discusses Orchestra, a cloud computing platform. It touches on several topics related to Orchestra, including its manifesto, language features, frameworks, projects, tools and passion of its creators. The document also notes that products can be easy to build but also easy to screw up, and that Orchestra aims to address enterprise needs while taking on incumbent providers.
This is a @JSConfEU talk about how we interact with technology and how we should maybe rethink our god-like approach to software languages. It also showcases an experiment that allows developers to interact with PHP directly from Node.js.
FRAPI is an API management panel and developer-facing API that was created to address issues like laziness, performance problems, and the involvement of humans in API development. It allows developers to build APIs that are automatically generated and synchronized based on configurations in the management panel. FRAPI aims to improve performance and reduce complexity by removing unnecessary code and providing tools for authentication, content negotiation, database integration, and documentation generation.
This document discusses FRAPI, a framework for building RESTful APIs. It provides both a management panel and developer-facing API for creating RESTful services. FRAPI aims to solve issues like laziness, performance problems, and long development times. It emphasizes building APIs with performance as a primary goal and without unnecessary complexity or "magic". The document outlines some of FRAPI's key features such as management, authentication, database support, content negotiation, code generation, and documentation. It also provides examples of projects using FRAPI and discusses development considerations.
This is a talk I presented at University Limerick to give people an introduction into CouchDB.
What is it? How does it generally work? Introducing new concepts, etc.
Web 3.0 focuses on semantics, data standards, and understanding through technologies like RDF, OWL, and SPARQL. These standards allow sites and data about the same things to be easily combined and searched. APIs are also important, allowing developers to build applications that access and combine data from different systems and sources, powering mashups, mobile apps, and more. When developing an API, one should focus on RESTful design principles, use meaningful URIs and formats like JSON, and support the developer community through documentation, tutorials, and libraries.
