These are the slides from my keynote at the UNICOM BPM conference in London on March 20th 2014. In this talk I introduce the history of wearable computing, talk about some salutory tales from prior work with BYOD and VDI, and the threat that disruptive new technologies pose for the IT department. I close with a look into the near future, and a rallying call for STEM education and the Missing Million.

Information architecture and content strategy are the foundation of any website but, when it comes to mobile, they can literally mean the life or death of a product. The truth is that even the best-designed and well-engineered mobile products can still fail if their IA is not sound, and that’s because mobile information architecture doesn’t only define the structure of content, but also determines how users will interact with it. And speaking of content, do you know what content should go on your mobile sites and apps? Are your users finding what they came for?In this talk we will take a look at the thought process that drives mobile content strategy, the specific challenges and opportunities of the mobile space and how information architecture and content strategy contribute to the creation of outstanding cross-channel experiences. 75 Tutorial presented at UX Scotland 2014

Last year we talked about DevOps, what it was, why it was important and how to get started. Boy, was it scary. Now we’re wiser. More battle-scarred. The scale of the challenge for application writers exploiting cloud and DevOps is clearer, but so is the path forward. Understanding the DevOps approach is important but equally you must understand specific deployment technologies. How to exploit them and how they effect the design of applications. Whether creating simple applications or sophisticated microservice architectures many of the challenges are the same. Presented at JAXLondon 2015 with Steve Poole

Das «Internet of Things» ist definitiv ein Hype-Thema - immer wieder hört man von innovativen Anwendungen. Erfunden werden diese oft von Bastlern. So entstehen aus Do-it-Yourself-Projekten Open Source Hardware Startups. Die Anwendungen werden mit Raspberry Pi oder Arduino gebaut und mittels Crowdfunding finanziert. Referent Thomas Amberg zeigte in seinem Referat spannende Produkte, die aus der Open Source Bewegung entstanden sind.

Web 2.0 for Educators

Over the last ten years, smartphones and tablets and pervasive Internet connectivity have taken over our lives, and more importantly the lives of our children. In this talk for Loughborough University's 2018 Learning and Teaching conference I reflect on how higher education could respond to this trend. I invite the audience to consider what children who have always had access to the sum total of human knowledge will will expect and need from universities in the future, and how we might best support learners from disadvantaged backgrounds to thrive

We’ve grown accustomed to being able to call up any information, anywhere, any time - but what happens when our digital landlord forecloses? When that service we entrusted our data to goes to the Startup Graveyard?

Does it feel like the world has recently become much less certain and predictable? We tend to expect that each day will be like the last, more or less, but incremental change is increasingly feeling like a thing of the past. In this talk for the 2018 Scientia EMEA User Conference I look at how we can read the signals around us to better predict the future, and consider the impact of technologies and trends like blockchain, artificial intelligence and Brexit on further and higher education

In this talk for BETT 2018 I take a look at a few of the socio-technical trends that are set to have a big impact on universities and colleges in 2018 from blockchain to Brexit, and data vandalism to UK spaceports. I look at some approaches that institutions can take to help plan for an uncertain future, and consider how the community can mobilise to protect the progressive values that now often seem to be under threat.

We are becoming used to living in an interconnected world, with vast amounts of data at our fingertips, but what happens when our preconceptions are challenged? What happens when the things that we take for granted simply don’t work any more? How can librarians rise to the challenge? In this invited talk for CILIP, I reflect on the impact for libraries and librarians of some of the defining narratives of the late Anthropocene era: from climate change and failed states to cheap space travel and artificial intelligence

In this invited talk for the BCS I look at the state of the art in robots and artificial intelligence, and what this tells us about the near-term future that our children and grandchildren will live in. Will the imminent arrival of AI powered self-driving vehicles mean redundancies for truck and taxi drivers? What will these people do next? I also show how robots and AI are already becoming commonplace, working in places like shops, restaurants and distribution centres

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are used extensively by Internet services to help us find and classify information. This is how products like Google Photos can "magically" find all your photos of cats or trees - or cats up trees! But there's a new wave of AI called generative adversarial neural networks that's all about using AI to make things. In this invited talk for the British Computer Society (BCS) I reflect on what we could use this technology for and the implications for people and society.

What does HPC in the cloud look like in 2017, and how did we get there? In this talk for Red Oak's HPC Seminar, I look at the origins of cloud HPC, and how it has become mainstream through technologies like Amazon Web Services and OpenStack. I also offer a sneak preview of the 2017 UK national e-Infrastructure survey results, and some thoughts about what's next in cloud HPC, from hyperscale providers to the momentum behind container technologies from Docker and the Open Container Initiative.
