Proprietary and Confidential 8 Alexa as a virtual concierge The Problem A global hotel chain wanted to see what was possible in a connected hotel experience, since this is a precursor to the smart home of the future The Solution Mobiquity chose to leverage the Alexa Skills Kit to create a hotel room experience that includes controlling lighting, temperature, in-room music, ordering room service, and more. The experience will soon be in pilot, with the potential to roll out nation-wide. The solution was built on Amazon Web Services architecture using Lamba, API Gateway, DynamoDB and S3. ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 9 Alexa as an order taker Problem A fast food chain wanted to make it easier for its members to order ahead, skip the line and pick up their order. Solution Mobiquity chose to use the Echo and the Alexa Skills Kit. Using Alexa, we call a Lambda function, which then allows a user to interact with the Echo using the ordering skill that we created. We then added the chain’ s menu as utterances to ensure that the user would be able to order anything that she desired. Once the order is placed, Alexa reads the order back to the user and then an email is sent with a confirmation of the order. ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 10 Alexa checks patient treatment satisfaction Problem Clinical Research often requires patient feedback on the treatment Welcome to StudyCheck! …. satisfaction of a study medication. This healthcare company wanted to demonstrate viability of voice I will ask you a small number services in posing a Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for of questions every day…. Medication (TSQM). Solution Mobiquity chose to use the Amazon Echo with a Lambda Function to pose questions in the realm of TSQM. The Alexa Skill StudyCheck interacts with the patient, checks it is alright to proceed, informally collects the patient’s name and asks a number of questions about a study medication. ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 11 AWS IoT for Monitoring Usage The Problem Our client wanted to monitor a variety of sensors in a manufacturing environment. The Solution For a POC we used Intel Edison Boards to monitor a variety of sensors placed around the manufacturing floor. The Edison Board would then send events to AWS IoT. On a simulated device, we had the Edison Board monitoring a variety of events caused by movements of a dial, pushes of various buttons, temperature changes, motion, etc.. This allowed our client to appropriately plan for how they would integrate sensors into their manufacturing equipment over time. ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 12 Alexa Voice Service integrated in an app Problem A client wanted its customers to experience interacting with Alexa on the go Solution Mobiquity integrated the Alexa Voice Service into an Android application. Using Alexa, we call a Lambda function, which then allows a user to interact with the Echo using the skill that we created. In this example we had a multi-tier ordering scenario, where Alexa would then confirm the order placed, by reading it back, and give the user a chance to modify the order. When the user confirmed that the order was complete, Alexa would connect to DynamoDB via API Gateway and display the results inside of the Android app, simulating a virtual receipt. ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 13 Repurposing the dash to get your morning coffee A coffee house wanted to see how IoT could impact consumer behavior. We reprogrammed an Amazon Dash as a coffee order button Pressing once identifies the closest coffee house and sets Google Maps to navigate the user there Pressing a second time places your preset order (in this example, a cappuccino) when you are within 3 minutes of the location ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 14 Alexa as a tool for operations The Problem A large retailer wanted a fun and interactive way to get real-time updates of sales by store The Solution Using Alexa, we call a Lambda function, which then connects to AWS’ API Gateway, and a private service at the retailer. Alexa then speaks the result, tied to the store number How It Works User: “Alexa, start sales” Alexa: “Hi, I’m here to help find your sales numbers.” User: “What were February 2016 sales for store 700” Alexa: “Sales were $750,000. You met your sales target for February 2016.” ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 15 Alexa as a Lab Helper The Situation A client wanted to give visitors of their Innovation Lab a way to learn about the exhibits on display. The Innovation Mobiquity worked with our client on a Lab Helper, which allows users to interact and ask questions about the lab exhibits How It Works ● “Alexa, tell me about the displays” ● “Alexa, tell me about the mannequins” ● “Alexa, what’s on the Apple TV?” ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 16 Mobile as a platform for content distribution The Situation A global management consulting firm had a mobile responsive website but needed a native, mobile experience for sharing their intellectual property. The Solution Mobiquity created a Serverless Lambda solution leveraging the following: ● Cognito Identity - create secure anonymous IDs to remember users across sessions and preserve their content category selections ● SNS - to notify users of new content ● API Gateway - secure and scalable solution for communication with mobile devices ● Lambda functions - to pull content from SDL/Tridion CMS and store in an S3 bucket ● Dynamo DB - as a cache server ● Amazon Mobile Analytics ©2016 Mobiquity Inc. Proprietary and Confidential 17 Alexa as a voice navigator for Fire TV The Problem Our client wanted to find a way to bring a visual aspect to interactions with Amazon’s Echo. The Solution We developed an Alexa Skills Kit that would take in the voice input from the Echo and then display that output using a Fire TV webapp.

  • Reliability and Security of Large Scale Data Storage in Cloud Computing C.W
    This article is part of the Reliability Society 2010 Annual Technical Report Reliability and Security of Large Scale Data Storage in Cloud Computing C.W. Hsu ¹¹¹ C.W. Wang ²²² Shiuhpyng Shieh ³³³ Department of Computer Science Taiwan Information Security Center at National Chiao Tung University NCTU (TWISC@NCTU) Email: ¹[email protected] ³[email protected] ²[email protected] Abstract In this article, we will present new challenges to the large scale cloud computing, namely reliability and security. Recent progress in the research area will be briefly reviewed. It has been proved that it is impossible to satisfy consistency, availability, and partitioned-tolerance simultaneously. Tradeoff becomes crucial among these factors to choose a suitable data access model for a distributed storage system. In this article, new security issues will be addressed and potential solutions will be discussed. Introduction “Cloud Computing ”, a novel computing model for large-scale application, has attracted much attention from both academic and industry. Since 2006, Google Inc. Chief Executive Eric Schmidt introduced the term into industry, and related research had been carried out in recent years. Cloud computing provides scalable deployment and fine-grained management of services through efficient resource sharing mechanism (most of them are for hardware resources, such as VM). Convinced by the manner called “ pay-as-you-go ” [1][2], companies can lower the cost of equipment management including machine purchasing, human maintenance, data backup, etc. Many cloud services rapidly appear on the Internet, such as Amazon’s EC2, Microsoft’s Azure, Google’s Gmail, Facebook, and so on. However, the well-known definition of the term “Cloud Computing ” was first given by Prof.

Social media uses web-based technologies to turn communication into interactive dialogues. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define social media as "a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0, which allows the creation and exchange of user-generated content."[1] Businesses also refer to social media as consumer-generated media (CGM). Social media utilization is believed to be a driving force in defining the current time period as the Attention Age. A common thread running through all definitions of social media is a blending of technology and social interaction for the co-creation of value. Distinction from industrial media People gain information, education, news, etc., by electronic media and print media. Social media are distinct from industrial or traditional media, such as newspapers, television, and film. They are relatively inexpensive and accessible to enable anyone (even private individuals) to publish or access information, compared to industrial media, which generally require significant resources to publish information.
