9.30 AM CEST | Open source experiences in AI and DataViz for manufacturing market – Grazia Cazzin, Engineering

In the manufacturing industry the large amount of data – made available from IoT – needs to be properly collected, analysed and visualized in order to be transformed into useful information. The present speech introduces two different use cases in which Dataviz enabled AI and Machine Learning over data coming from IoT platforms. In these use cases, different open source technologies have been combined with the aim of creating the best environment in which the expertise of data scientists fits the needs and requirements of business users. The first use case is about predictive maintenance with the Rule (residual useful life) estimation in an industry 4.0 scenario. The second use case covers the energy market and deals with energy consumption in buildings.

OW2 conference 2021

For the second year, the OW2 conference, is going to be an online open source event. On June 23-24, 2021 the European open source community gathers for two days of presentations and break-out sessions around the main theme “Leveraging the European Open Source Ecosystem“.

OW2con21!

The world needs a vibrant European open source ecosystem. As open source software has become mainstream how do we ensure it creates long-term value for all and enables good jobs and digital sovereignty across societies? The growth and sustainability of the ecosystem depends on the success of its stakeholders: open source projects and developers, open source foundations, systems integrators, software vendors, and users. We all play a part through our technology choices, our best practices, our engagement with other players. We each have a vested interest in the well-being of other stakeholders. OW2con’21 will address the many challenges of ensuring a sustainable European open source ecosystem.

Engineering is proud sponsor of the event and Knowage, the open source suite powered by Engineering, will join the event with two speeches.

On Wednesday 23 at 11:30 AM CEST, “KNOWAGE 8 in Exclusive Preview” will be held by Davide Zerbetto, Knowage Architect. The speech will show the main novelties brought by Knowage 8, such as the new rich pre-built components within cockpits, the expansion of the in-cloud offers and many new functions aiming to further enhance user experience. With this new release, Knowage strengthens its commitment within OW2 community to support companies and public administrations in facing these unprecedented uncertain times thanks to a better capability to visualize data, make forecasts and take data-driven decisions.

On Wednesday 23 at 15:00 PM CEST, “Big Data exploitation: real use cases of Knowage adoption in healthcare and energy market“ will be held by Marco Cortella, Knowage Consultant. This speech will present two use cases that have been managed end-to-end, from data collection to the final use. The first use case illustrates how Knowage adoption helped public health authorities to create a homogeneous system of information and knowledge transfer across all the organization, allowing advanced and multi-dimensional analysis and the evaluation of company performances. The second use case concerns the energy market and energy consumption in buildings: the solution developed with Knowage provides real-time and periodic power consumption feedback, enabling data-driven decisions to save resources and money.
