Les technologies no-code ont récemment atteint un niveau de maturité qui en font une vraie alternative au développement Web traditionnel. Comme dans tout mouvement émergent, il est difficile de faire la part des choses entre l'offre qui est en train de naître et les messages que peuvent véhiculer les acteurs du secteur. Développer des sites ou applis en exploitant le no-code est également déontologique. Le but est de se réapproprier les moyens de production numérique (relocalisation, "déGAFAïsation", etc.). Afin de permettre au lecteur d'évoluer et de suivre la tendance, l'objectif de l'ouvrage est également de partager les conseils pratiques des auteurs et les meilleurs outils pour avoir une approche contenant un fort versant de "productivité". Tout ceci en illustrant l'ouvrage de cas concrets et de mises en oeuvre pratique. Cette nouvelle édition est enrichie et mise à jour de nouveaux exemples concrets de Nocode.

Why do we continue to struggle with data? With all the powerful tools we have in processing power, data tools, and computer programming, we still search for some elusive truth to pervasive problems. AI hallucinates, 'good data' that we started with is suddenly unintelligible, systems that should talk to each other seamlessly continually experience errors and need correction.What we fail to incorporate into our data world is the fact that data is language and has entwined in that language its own code that does not get captured in databases, APIs, LLMs and the systems we use day in and day out. So, how can we crack this data code?By stepping back, we can incorporate the tools that already exist in applied linguistics used to crack the human language code into our approaches in how we tackle the data code challenge. Just because we call it data doesn’t mean that it doesn’t suffer from bias or the need for context. But by recognizing these linguistic challenges, and infusing that inside the data, we can create data code that can be cracked, data that tells us its biases, context, and purpose, and for who that data is actually useful to, and for whom it is not.If you are interested in data, and why understanding language and jargon can help you crack the data code, this book is for you. If you’ve had a data challenge and have struggled to find a way to understand it, the practical foundational principles inside can help you frame your problem in a different way. And in doing so, help you crack the data code.

Quantum technology interest is accelerating for two key reasons: first, quantum technologies promise transformative capabilities. Indeed, quantum computing is seen as a strategic necessity by the world’s leading economies. Second, experts unanimously agree that a cryptographically-relevant quantum computer will have the capability to break classical encryption that keeps our data and transactions private. Thus, organizations are challenged to protect their most sensitive information data and systems before a cryptographically-relevant quantum computer is accessible to hackers despite already over-burdened cybersecurity teams.Quantum Cybersecurity Program Management by Dr Greg Skulmoski and Dr Ashkan Memari is part of a series of books: Shields Up: Cybersecurity Project Management outlines a risk-based approach to cybersecurity project management including technology and process improvement projects. Cybersecurity Training: A Pathway to Readiness outlines best practices in training and instructional design to upskill the organization’s people. Quantum Cybersecurity builds upon Shields Up (technology and process) and Cybersecurity Training (people) to provide a program approach to deliver the diversity of quantum projects and initiatives organizations encounter.The authors of Quantum Cybersecurity bring together best practices found in standards and frameworks in a risk-based approach to implementing a quantum program of projects. Tailored for quantum champions, IT security architects, business leaders, project managers, digital leadership, and board members, Quantum Cybersecurity offers actionable guidance. Urgent and early adopters will find a practical guide for a quick start to their quantum projects.

You’ve heard the promises of data: if you just unlock the hidden insights, you can win an unfair game. But for people at most companies, friction prevents data from flowing effortlessly into decisions. Technology alone won’t make the connection for you. Neither will finding more data; you’ve already got plenty. To connect data with decisions, you’ll need to reverse the way data flows through all your systems and decisions.If you’re a business decision-maker – a CEO, CIO, or CxO – you’ll see the connection between a data strategy and the thousands of decisions people in your company make every day. If you’re a data worker, you’ll see how your work changes the direction of a company. And if you’re an analyst – someone who bridges the gap between top-level decision makers and what’s really happening in the business – you’ll find a new vision of how to use data to transform your job and your company.Instead of new technology offering tired promises to make your job easier, you’ll find management solutions for better, faster decisions. Unified data flowing through your company, to everyone at the same time, improving business decisions through alignment and visibility, trust and scale.That’s Frictionless Decision Data.

The misuse of AI has led to wrongful arrests, denial of medical care, even genocide-this book offers 7 powerful principles that business can use now to end the harm.AI holds incredible promise to improve virtually every aspect of our lives, but we can't ignore its risks, mishaps and misuses. Juliette Powell and Art Kleiner offer seven principles for ensuring that machine learning supports human flourishing. They draw on Powell's research at Columbia University and use a wealth of real-world examples. Four principles relate to AI systems themselves. Human risk must be rigorously determined and consciously included in any design process. AI systems must be understandable and transparent to any observer, not just the engineers working on them. People must be allowed to protect and manage their personal data. The biases embedded in AI must be confronted and reduced. The final three principles pertain to the organizations that create AI systems. There must be procedures in place to hold them accountable for negative consequences. Organizations need to be loosely structured so that problems in one area can be isolated and resolved before they spread and sabotage the whole system. Finally, there must be psychological safety and creative friction, so that anyone involved in software development can bring problems to light without fear of reprisal. Powell and Kleiner explore how to implement each principle, citing current best practices, promising new developments, and sobering cautionary tales. Incorporating the perspectives of engineers, businesspeople, government officials, and social activists, this book will help us realize the unprecedented benefits and opportunities AI systems can provide.

The coauthors of the seminal book The Virtual Corporation describe how the rise of artificial intelligence and virtual environments are ushering in an epic cultural transformation—and how we can thrive in this new era.The coauthors of the seminal book The Virtual Corporation describe how the rise of artificial intelligence and virtual environments are ushering in an epic cultural transformation—and how we can thrive in this new era.We are at the dawn of the Autonomous Revolution, a turning point in human history as decisive as the Agricultural and Industrial Revolutions. More and more, AI-based machines are replacing human beings, and online environments are gathering our data and using it to manipulate us. This loss of human autonomy amounts to nothing less than a societal phase change, a fundamental paradigm shift. The same institutions will remain—schools, banks, churches, and corporations—but they will radically change form, obey new rules, and use new tools. William H. Davidow and Michael S. Malone go deeply into the enormous implications of these developments. They show why increases in productivity no longer translate into increases in the GDP and how zero cost, one-to-many communications have been turned into tools for cybercrime and propaganda. Many of the book's recommendations—such as using taxes to control irresponsible internet behavior and enabling people to put their data into what are essentially virtual personal information “safety deposit boxes”—are bold and visionary, but we must figure out how we will deal with these emerging challenges now, before the Autonomous Revolution overcomes us.

Why? Because they charter projects focused on delivering software products: IT projects. But as this groundbreaking book points out, there's no such thing as an IT project—or at least there shouldn't be. It's always about intentional business change, or what's the point?It's time to stop providing simplistic, one-dimensional, all-you-gotta-do panaceas. When the only constant in business is change, truly useful IT has to help you change instead of build solutions that are obsolete even before they are completed. IT consultant Bob Lewis, author of the bestselling Bare Bones Project Management, has joined forces with seasoned CIO Dave Kaiser to give you the tools you need. It's a multidimensional, relentlessly practical guide. Condensed to handbook length and seasoned with Lewis's trademark sardonic humor, it's an enjoyable and digestible read as well.Lewis and Kaiser take you step by step through the process of building a collaboration between IT and the rest of the business that really works. Insisting on intentional business change takes patience, communication, and courage, but it has a huge payoff. More to the point, insist on anything else and every penny you spend will be a wasted dime and a waste of time.

How have state policies influenced the development of Japan''s telecommunications, computer hardware, computer software, and semiconductor industries and their stagnation since the 1990s? Marie Anchordoguy''s book examines how the performance of these industries and the economy as a whole are affected by the socially embedded nature of Japan''s capitalist system, which she calls "communitarian capitalism."Reprogramming Japan shows how the institutions and policies that emerged during and after World War II to maintain communitarian norms, such as the lifetime employment system, seniority-based wages, enterprise unions, a centralized credit-based financial system, industrial groups, the main bank corporate governance system, and industrial policies, helped promote high tech industries. When conditions shifted in the 1980s and 1990s, these institutions and policies did not suit the new environment, in which technological change was rapid and unpredictable and foreign products could no longer be legally reverse-engineered. Despite economic stagnation, leaders were slow to change because of deep social commitments. Once the crisis became acute, the bureaucracy and corporate leaders started to contest and modify key institutions and practices. Rather than change at different times according to their specific economic interests, Japanese firms and the state have made similar slow, incremental changes.

In The United States of Anonymous, Jeff Kosseff explores how the right to anonymity has shaped American values, politics, business, security, and discourse, particularly as technology has enabled people to separate their identities from their communications. Legal and political debates surrounding online privacy often focus on the Fourth Amendment''s protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, overlooking the history and future of an equally powerful privacy right: the First Amendment''s protection of anonymity. The United States of Anonymous features extensive and engaging interviews with people involved in the highest profile anonymity cases, as well as with those who have benefited from, and been harmed by, anonymous communications. Through these interviews, Kosseff explores how courts have protected anonymity for decades and, likewise, how law and technology have allowed individuals to control how much, if any, identifying information is associated with their communications. From blocking laws that prevent Ku Klux Klan members from wearing masks to restraining Alabama officials from forcing the NAACP to disclose its membership lists, and to refusing companies'' requests to unmask online critics, courts have recognized that anonymity is a vital part of our free speech protections. The United States of Anonymous weighs the tradeoffs between the right to hide identity and the harms of anonymity, concluding that we must maintain a strong, if not absolute, right to anonymous speech.

Puts forward a convincing argument for the value of digital literacy in the multilingual writing classroomThis book argues for the value of digital literacy in the multilingual writing classroom. Against the background of huge changes in literacy practices prompted by online communication, and a growing acceptance of a broader definition of academic literacy that encompasses multimodality, the book examines the relationship between digital and print literacies and addresses the design of literacy spaces for multilingual classrooms. The author critically evaluates the latest developments in the use of technology in multilingual writing spaces, and focuses on the role of teachers in their design; it also addresses areas that are not often discussed in relation to multilingual students, from blogging to publishing and intellectual property. The book will help teachers meet the challenges created by rapidly shifting technology, as well as making an innovative contribution to research on multilingual writing classrooms.Chapter 1.

Reveals the importance of online tools and languages to engage across borders when these borders are impassableThis book details online academic collaborations between universities in Europe, the USA and Palestine. The chapters recount the challenges and successes of online collaborations which promote academic connections and conversations with the Gaza Strip, despite a continuing blockade imposed on Gaza since 2007, and forge relationships between individuals, institutions and cultures. The chapters examine, from different perspectives, what happens when languages and the internet facilitate encounters, and the fundamental importance this has as a form of defiance and of resistance to the physical confinement experienced by Palestinian academics, students and the general population of Gaza. They highlight the limitations of multilingual and intercultural encounters when they are deprived of the sensory proximity of face-to-face situations and what is lost in the translation of languages, practices and experiences from the ‘real’ to the ‘virtual’ world.
