Over the past three years, Standard Bank’s IT group had changed from the relatively well accepted systems development lifecycle/waterfall model to a revolutionary large scale agile approach. The results had been gratifying. But it left a question unanswered. Now that things were starting to stabilize, what should be the next steps? The 154-year-old Standard Bank was the largest banking group in Africa, and the 5 largest company headquartered in South Africa. The bank offered a range of corporate, business and personal banking as well as financial services. Its 49,000 employees served over 15 million customers, in 20 countries across the continent of Africa, as well as other countries scattered around the globe.","PeriodicalId":202502,"journal":{"name":"J.

The case covers the rapidly emerging NoSQL database products that can be used to implement very large distributed databases. These are exciting times in the database marketplace, with a flock of new companies offering scalable database systems for the cloud. These products challenge existing relational database vendors that have come to dominate the market. The case outlines four potential solutions and asks students to make a choice or suggest a different alternative to meet database scaling goals.","PeriodicalId":202502,"journal":{"name":"J. Inf.

Gill, Bernardo Rodrigues","doi":"10.28945/3915","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.28945/3915","url":null,"abstract":"Dr. Leonid Perlovsky, distinguished physicist and cognitive scientist, pondered this question, which could have a significant impact on his research direction in the years to come. Over the past few decades, he had developed and refined algorithms for distinguishing objects in images, an approach that had found its way into various classified U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) applications. Now he was looking for new potential opportunities to see his research applied, allowing it to evolve further. One of the most interesting aspects of Perlovsky’s approach was that it was very similar to that taken by the human brain in processing sensory information. It began with a very vague model of what might or might not be present in the data being examined. Through successive iterations, analogous to the layers of processing used in human sensory systems, the patterns in the data corresponding to objects would grow more and more distinct until, finally, they became recognizable. Unlike most statistical techniques, this approach— termed “dynamic logic” by Perlovsky—did not require that a model be specified in advance. As such, it was well suited for contexts that required discovery.","PeriodicalId":202502,"journal":{"name":"J. Inf. Technol. Educ. Discuss.
