  • CCIA Comments in ITU CWG-Internet OTT Open Consultation.Pdf
    CCIA Response to the Open Consultation of the ITU Council Working Group on International Internet-related Public Policy Issues (CWG-Internet) on the “Public Policy considerations for OTTs” Summary. The Computer & Communications Industry Association welcomes this opportunity to present the views of the tech sector to the ITU’s Open Consultation of the CWG-Internet on the “Public Policy considerations for OTTs”.1 CCIA acknowledges the ITU’s expertise in the areas of international, technical standards development and spectrum coordination and its ambition to help improve access to ICTs to underserved communities worldwide. We remain supporters of the ITU’s important work within its current mandate and remit; however, we strongly oppose expanding the ITU’s work program to include Internet and content-related issues and Internet-enabled applications that are well beyond its mandate and core competencies. Furthermore, such an expansion would regrettably divert the ITU’s resources away from its globally-recognized core competencies. The Internet is an unparalleled engine of economic growth enabling commerce, social development and freedom of expression. Recent research notes the vast economic and societal benefits from Rich Interaction Applications (RIAs), a term that refers to applications that facilitate “rich interaction” such as photo/video sharing, money transferring, in-app gaming, location sharing, translation, and chat among individuals, groups and enterprises.2 Global GDP has increased US$5.6 trillion for every ten percent increase in the usage of RIAs across 164 countries over 16 years (2000 to 2015).3 However, these economic and societal benefits are at risk if RIAs are subjected to sweeping regulations.

Currently, there are hundreds of these programs on the market, ranging from basic free online programs all the way to highly complex products that allow the user to manage every aspect of the venture from lead generation all the way to final payment. In order to help you navigate this complex market, we wrote this buyer’s guide in order to improve your understanding of the functions, features and buying decisions that need to be considered when you assess your options—and there are many.

  • Thesis Title
    Masters' Degree in Informatics Engineering Dissertation System of Automatic Recommendation and Prioritization of Tasks Jos´ePedro Santana Saraiva [email protected] Advisor : Alexandre Pinto June 2014 UNIVERSIDADE DE COIMBRA Abstract Faculdade de Ci^enciase Tecnologia Departamento de Engenharia Inform´atica Master's Degree Thesis System of Automatic Recommendation and Prioritization of Tasks by Jos´ePedro Santana Saraiva Most people have many different tasks, goals, projects, interests and responsibilities in life, and in the fast paced world we live in today, all of these grow in number and diversity all the time. This rising in complexity and quantity of matters to handle makes it progressively harder to make intuitive choices about which task to execute next. We developed a prototype application for helping the user in managing and prioritizing his tasks, guaranteeing an alignment with his goals and deadlines. Our application follows a variation over the Getting Things Done (GTD) methodology but also includes benefits from other complementary approaches, such as goal cascading and dynamic prioritization. Keywords: GTD, Prioritization of Tasks, Recommendation of Tasks, Hierarchization of Objectives, Personal Productivity |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||- Acknowledgements Firstly, I would like to acknowledge my immense gratitude to my advisor Prof. Alexandre Pinto for all the guidance and knowledge provided, for the patience and availability shown since the start of this thesis and for his motivational words provided in hard times. I also would like to acknowledge the Cognitive and Media Systems Group for providing me shelter and allowing me to use their resources. Last but not least, I am truly grateful for the support that my beloved family has given throughout my studies, especially my parents and grandparents for their relentless support, belief and comprehension, and my gratitude to all my friends who played an essential role during this period of my life.
