Abnormality detection in banking environments
Victoria University
September 30, 2014
Due to widespread adoption of electronic funds transfer at point of sale (EFTPOS), internet banking and the near-ubiquitous use of credit cards, banks are able to collect abundant information about cardholders’ transactions. Extracting effective knowledge from these transaction records and personal data from cardholders has enormous profit potential for the banking industry.

In this project, we provide a novel domain-driven classification method that takes advantage of multiple criteria and multiple constraint-level programming (MC2) for intelligent credit scoring. The proposed method will classify credit card customers precisely in order to provide effective services while avoiding losses due to users’ unpaid debts.

Transhumanism Has Nothing to Do with Sexuality
Medium
November 23, 2021
In my opinion, transhumanism is a pathway of humanism leveraging the power of technology and science. Humanity evolved using technology from primitive days. For example, fire, the wheel, the printing press, electricity, the phone, and the Internet are all examples of technology that helped humanity evolve. These technology constructs help us cross geographical boundaries and connect us better with others.

Bill Gates & Elon Musk Collaborate for the Marriage of Space & Technology Despite Different Perspectives: The partnership between Azure and SpaceX appears promising in the space journey.
Technology Hits on Medium
November 21, 2021
In this article, I introduce contributions of technology infrastructure to space programs by presenting the partnership between two extraordinary leaders of the century as an example. Bill Gates has a long history of innovation and disrupting the market, starting with his Windows programs in 1986. As a result of acceptance and demand for his products, Gates became one of the wealthiest people on earth, and his company has become the most prominent technology organization globally. As of 2020, Microsoft’s market capitalization reached $1.97 trillion, according to Statista. Elon Musk is younger than Bill Gates; however, he became more prosperous than Gates recently. In fact, in 2021, Musk became the first person who had wealth of $300 Billion, leaving Jeff Bezos as the second richest person, according to CBS News. Both Gates and Musk are globally recognized leaders with a proven track record. However, their collaboration might create even more significant synergies. They are different characters with different leadership styles and business goals.

Millions of people, if not billions, have died or suffered pain because of irrational behaviors of human beings. Wars are typical examples of this suffering. Our thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and social interactions can have significant consequences for humanity. Fundamentally, our thoughts and emotions create our behavior. People might think that education would solve irrational behavior. However, in my opinion, irrational behavior has nothing to do with education.

Eleven Emerging & Futuristic Technologies for the Global Economy & Personal Investment
Technology Hits on Medium
November 02, 2021
Technology is changing our economy and finances at an alarming rate. As a technology writer, one of the most frequent requests from my loyal readers is to write articles about technologies that might give them some information on future investment. This inspired me to write this article. I can make technological and scientific predictions based on research and prior experience. Therefore, I invest in technology stocks based on my decades of experience focusing on emerging technologies such as AI, robotics, IoT, big data, cloud computing, cybersecurity, biotechnology, nanotechnology, and quantum computing. However, I am not an economist or a financial advisor. Therefore, I cannot give financial advice. Nevertheless, I provide a balanced view by opening a window to the tech world for you. This article introduces eleven emerging technology tools and processes that might have a significant economic impact globally within the next two decades. I briefly introduce each with critical use cases and global sentiments within a philosophical and spiritual context. It is not possible to detail eleven remarkable technologies in a single article. This is just a quick taste now, or a teaser if you will, and I plan to create a detailed article for each item in this story.

Sexuality affects our physical and mental health, and overall well-being. Revolutionary sexual technologies called digisexualities are emerging. These new technologies include various aspects and components of artificial intelligence, e.g., machine learning, deep learning, neural networks, robotics, and biotechnology. These challenging and beyond-dimension slants pose new risks and concerns for society. Sexuality is a sensitive topic that requires kindheartedness.

Artificial Intelligence Does Not Concern Me, but Artificial Super-Intelligence Frightens Me

Sophia, Watson, and Asimov do not concern me at all. They are controllable and loving artificial intelligence robots that enhance our capabilities and add meaning to our lives. However, suppose the capabilities of these lovely robots fall into the hands of people who have no concern about human suffering and even enjoy killing them for their enjoyment. If that were to happen using artificial super-intelligence, the apocalyptic future imagined by The Terminator movies could become a reality. This article is not about giving answers or scaring people but to ask some informed questions to create awareness of the need for society to take a long and hard look at the ethical issues surrounding artificial super-intelligence and other advanced technologies supporting this movement.

A Perspective on Tech Shocks within Economic Disruption Context
Technology Hits on Medium
October 26, 2021
Technology is undoubtedly disruptive at many levels in society. For example, artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), biotechnology, and nanotechnology will be more disruptive than other technologies. Not that because they are fancy techs, but because they have a significant economic impact globally. The disruption of technology is perceived differently by different people depending on their position and roles in society. While most public concerns seem to be related to ethics and law, the more significant part of the iceberg refers to the economy encompassing both ethical and legal aspects. We have been experiencing the massive impact of technology on the economy and business for decades now. We have experienced several technology shocks over the last few decades. Some were subtle, and some were sharp. So, what do I mean by tech shocks? I can explain the impact and implications of tech shocks via a simple pattern.

The content in this book is based on my architectural thought leadership experience gained in multiple large business and enterprise architecture initiatives, focusing on business capabilities, digital transformation initiatives, and enterprise modernisation engagements, reflecting hard lessons learned in these applied settings.

In this book, I attempt to redefine the role of business architects as primary leaders for digital transformation programs. The content reflects my experience and observations from the field. As a caveat, this book is not based on theories in the traditional business architecture textbooks which may conflict with my experience. My beta readers found this as a unique guide reflecting reality from the field. Hope it adds new insights for your role in the business digital transformation initiatives.

A Modern Enterprise Architecture Approach
STEPS Publishing Australia
October 18, 2019
I authored this book to provide essential guidance, compelling ideas, and unique ways to Enterprise Architects so that they can successfully perform complex enterprise modernisation initiatives transforming from chaos to coherence. This is not an ordinary theory book describing Enterprise Architecture in detail. There are myriad of books on the market and in libraries discussing details of enterprise architecture. My aim here is to highlight success factors and reflect lessons learnt. As a practising Senior Enterprise Architect, myself, I read hundreds of those books and articles to learn different views. They have been valuable to me to establish my foundations in the earlier phase of my profession. However, what is missing now is a concise guidance book showing Enterprise Architects the novel approaches, insights from the real-life experience and experimentations, and pointing out the differentiating technologies for enterprise modernisation. If only there were such a guide when I started engaging in modernisation and transformation programs. The biggest lesson learned is the business outcome of the enterprise modernisation. What genuinely matters for business is the return on investment of the enterprise architecture and its monetising capabilities. The rest is the theory because nowadays sponsoring executives, due to economic climate, have no interest, attention, or tolerance for non-profitable ventures. I am sorry for disappointing some idealistic Enterprise Architects, but with due respect, it is the reality, and we cannot change it. This book deals with reality rather than theoretical perfection. Anyone against this view on this climate must be coming from another planet.In this concise, uncluttered and easy-to-read book, I attempt to show the significant pain points and valuable considerations for enterprise modernisation using a structured approach. The architectural rigour is still essential. We cannot compromise the rigour aiming to the quality of products and services as a target outcome. However, there must be a delicate balance among architectural rigour, business value, and speed to market. I applied this pragmatic approach to multiple substantial transformation initiatives and complex modernisations programs. The key point is using an incrementally progressing iterative approach to every aspect of modernisation initiatives, including people, processes, tools, and technologies as a whole. Starting with a high-level view of enterprise architecture to set the context, I provided a dozen of distinct chapters to point out and elaborate on the factors which can make a real difference in dealing with complexity and producing excellent modernisation initiatives. As eminent leaders, Enterprise Architects are the critical talents who can undertake this massive mission using their people and technology skills, in addition to many critical attributes such as calm and composed approach. They are architects, not firefighters. I have full confidence that this book can provide valuable insights and aha moments for these talented architects to tackle this enormous mission turning chaos to coherence.

Architecting Digital Transformation
STEPS Publishing Australia
September 24, 2019
Enterprises are facing enormous challenges to respond to the rapid changes and growing demands of digital consumers globally. There is a constant search to find solutions to the growing problems. The most optimal solution to address this problem is to architect our enterprise digital transformation requirements aligning with digital trends and innovative frameworks as described in this book with an articulated 12-step method.

Architecting digital transformations address the root causes of fundamental issues that we experience in the digital world. The proliferation of digital media in the form of images, sound, and videos created a massive demand for our infrastructure to scale globally. Relentless sharing of these media types creates an unsustainable load over the networks, applications, and other expensive infrastructure components unless an effective capacity plan is in place.

Based on my architectural thought leadership on various enterprise architecture initiatives, digital transformation, and modernisation engagements, with my accumulated body of knowledge and skills from practical settings, I want to share these learnings in a concise book with a specific 12-step method hoping to add value by contributing to the broader digital community and the progressing digital transformation initiatives.

I made every effort to make this book concise, uncluttered, and easy-to-read by removing technical jargons to make it readable by a broader audience who want to architect their digital transformation programs to align with the growing demands of their digital consumers.

In this book, I highlight the problems from an architectural point of view, following established and emerging methods, and recommend effective solutions to address them in a methodical way.

What distinguishes this book from other books on the market is that I provide a practical framework and a methodical approach to architect your organisation's digital infrastructure, applications, data, security, and other components based on experience, aiming not to sell or endorse any products or services to you.

Digital Intelligence: An innovative framework to digital transformation capabilities
STEPS Publishing Australia
September 09, 2019
I authored this book because dealing with intelligence, and the digital world is a passion for me and wanted to share my passion with you. In this book, I aim to provide compelling ideas and unique ways to increase, enhance, and deepen your digital intelligence and awareness and apply them to your organisation’s digital journey particularly for modernisation and transformation initiatives. I used the architectural thinking approach as the primary framework to convey my message.
Based on my architectural thought leadership on various digital transformation and modernisation engagements, with the accumulated wealth of knowledge and skills, I want to share these learnings in a concise book hoping to add value by contributing to the broader digital community and the progressing initiatives.
Rest assured, this is not a theory or an academic book. It is purely practical and based on lessons learned from real enterprise transformation and modernisation initiatives taken in large corporate environments.
I made every effort to make this book concise, uncluttered, and easy-to-read by removing technical jargons for a broader audience who want to enhance digital intelligence and awareness.
Upfront, this book is not about a tool, application, a single product, specific technology, or service, and certainly not to endorse any of these items. However, this book focuses on architectural thinking and methodical approach to improve digital intelligence and awareness. It is not like typical digital transformation books available on the market. In this book, I do not cover and repeat the same content of those books describing digital transformations. My purpose is different.
What distinguishes this book from other books is that I provide an innovative thinking framework and a methodical approach to increase your digital quotient based on experience, aiming not to sell or endorse any products or services even though I mention some prominent technologies which enable digital transformation, for your digital awareness, intelligence, and capabilities.

A Practical Guide for IoT Solution Architects
STEPS Publishing Australia
July 30, 2019
I authored this book to provide practical guidance and insightful advice for a selected target group, which we can call ‘IoT Solution Architects’. If you search the internet for the term IoT (Internet of Things), you may come across hundreds of publications in the form of books, papers, blogs and other resources about IoT on the market. This book does not repeat the information covered in those publications. It offers a unique perspective and focus based on practical experience.
The primary purpose of this book is to provide a practical architectural framework for solutions related to IoT. The framework covers crucial several business concerns that can guide the IoT solution architects that include security, availability, performance, speed to market and cost-effectiveness of the solutions or services at hand.
In the IoT literature, researchers have stated that these significant concerns are shared by many business executives dealing with IoT products and services. Therefore, in this book, I have reviewed these concerns systematically and presented practical advice to the IoT Solution Architects in terms of how to deal with these concerns using architectural knowledge, skills, and experience.
The focus of this book is to provide IoT solution architects with practical guidance and a unique perspective. Solution architects working in IoT ecosystems have an unprecedented level of responsibility at work; therefore, dealing with IoT ecosystems can be daunting.
As an experienced practitioner of this topic, I understand the challenges faced by the IoT solution architects. In this book, I have reflected upon my insights based on my solution architecture experience spread across three decades. In addition, this book can also guide other architects and designers who want to learn the architectural aspects of IoT and understand the key challenges and practical resolutions in IoT solution architectures. Each chapter focuses on the key aspects that form the framing scope for this book; namely, security, availability, performance, agility, and cost-effectiveness.
In this book, I have also provided useful definitions, a brief practical background on IoT and a guiding chapter on solution architecture development. The content is mainly practical; hence, it can be applied or be a supplemental input to the architectural projects at hand.

Semantic Access Control for Corporate Mobile Devices
Springer
March 31, 2010
Many of the mobile business applications are executed in different domains as business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) operations. Computing environments of mobile wireless devices owned by individuals or organizations have become totally distributed between peers and partners. Designing applicable access control mechanisms in this environment is difficult from the point of traditional security measures. Semantic web technologies offer appropriate access opportunities to the corporate resources by using related context in user devices and servers under the trust philosophy. Semantic web technology combines user requests and service descriptions for efficient matchmaking. This paper examines various access control mechanisms and semantically analyzes them. The purpose of this paper is to present a more secure access control mechanism for mobile corporate devices. This model can be used as an additional security framework that enforces access control mechanisms in the organizations.

Innovative Marriage of Security and Performance in SOA Based Dynamic Enterprises
Helsinki University of Technology
September 30, 2009
SOLEA Service-Oriented Locally adapted Enterprise Architecture Innovative Marriage of Security and Performance in SOA Based Dynamic Enterprises Sponsors: Presented by: -Helsinki University of Technology Dr. Mehmet Yildiz -University of Kuopio IBM Certified Executive IT Architect myildizmel@gmail.com Abridged version Proposed Abstract: “All enterprise systems have two key concerns: security and performance. All CIO / CTOs have these two in their daily agenda through the life cycle of their mission critical business systems. These two aspects hardly go along well unless specialised design considerations, innovative techniques and methodical practices are applied. Finding the right balance for security and performance marriage is a significant challenge for dynamic enterprises especially when the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is the key enabler of it. This paper aims at identifying key security and performance factors for SOA projects in dynamic enterprises and how they can be efficiently architected for desired business outcomes. In this paper, the experience based claims are substantiated with industry based literature review and a sample case study from the field.”

Definition and Fundamentals of Intelligence

Quite frankly, despite my diligent efforts, I have not come across a standard definition for digital intelligence so far. Even more, I have not seen an established body of knowledge with influential and cited publications directly researching the digital intelligence phenomenon.

A Thinking Framework to Unfold Digital Intelligence

This chapter aims to provide an overview of the structural thinking approach and its relation to digital intelligence. To make the framework digestible, I categorized them under ten critical topics. From my experience, architectural thinking can be used as a robust framework to gain digital knowledge, uncover the mystery behind digital intelligence, and enhance digital intelligence with a structured approach.

Intelligence for Financial Aspect of Ventures

Let’s put it this way. Even if we create a pinnacle of architecture with impeccable designs, if the solution is economically not viable and does not produce compelling returns on investment, the business stakeholders will consider the venture a failure. Therefore, financial intelligence for any digital venture is mandatory.

Innovative And Inventive Intelligence

In this half chapter, I touch on three critical points which require simplicity and clarity. They are communication, process, and technology. My focus is on why digital ventures must pay attention to simplicity. I divided this chapter to two sections to keep it at a reasonable size for my readers. The title of my chapter inspired me to do so.

Why designs and specifications require simplicity

In this condensed chapter, my purpose is to discuss how we can create a win-win position for service providers and consumers by simplifying designs and specifications.

Agile Thinking In Digital Ventures

Agility is a critical pillar in the digital intelligence framework. In this economic climate, digital venture leaders must think on their feet and act fast. Leaders capable of thinking and acting fast are more influential, credible, competitive, and productive in the market. Business organizations and customers expect these leaders to work in agility. These technology leaders relentlessly ask how they can make the technology footprint more intuitive, responsive, and nimble.

Accelerated intelligence and a pragmatic approach in digital ventures

This chapter focuses on two critical concepts: accelerated and pragmatic approaches for creating and delivering sustainable solutions. Speed to market is the bread and butter of digital ventures. Some aspects of digital solutions pose the risk of delays in producing and delivering products and services according to the plan. The most challenging parts are architecture and design, as these phases require deep thinking, researching, and thorough planning.

Open-source Big Data and analytics tools for digital ventures

Leveraging Ethical Hacking for Cybersecurity Requirements of Digital Ventures

Like any business organization, digital ventures need to include cybersecurity in their business vision, mission, strategy, and operational tactics to survive and thrive.

Digital Intelligence — Chapter 15 Dealing With Demands Of Mobility In Digital Venturesmedium.com

Chapter 16

Like any ventures, the vitality and success of digital ventures depend on the quality of team members. A digital business ecosystem can be consisting of many interrelated team members, including a wide variety of professionals covering various facets of business in harmony. Digital ventures require many roles and responsibilities. These roles and responsibilities need to be defined clearly and described in detail. Clarified roles and responsibilities can contribute to harmony in the digital team ecosystem.

Chapter 17

Giveback activities are highly sought after and create the learning and skill-building backbone for flourishing ventures. Learning is a never-ending process in transformational environments. Digital ventures operate with constant transformation. Due to rapidly changing technologies, processes, and tools, technology leaders and employees must learn rapidly and efficiently. Their learning process includes both formal and informal modes. While college degrees, supplementary education courses, and short courses are considered formal and essential for gaining knowledge and skills, the tip of the iceberg relates to informal learning activities.

Chapter 18

Effective management and utilization of roles and responsibilities determine the business success in digital ventures. In this chapter, I introduce crucial roles and responsibilities in modern digital ventures. Digital ventures differ from traditional business organizations. The main difference is the flat structure as opposed to the hierarchical structure in conventional business models. The main reason for adopting a flat structure is the speed to market for tremendous consumer demands.
Digital Intelligence — Chapter 18 Vital Business And Technical Roles In Digital Venturesmedium.com

Chapter 19

In this chapter, I introduce IT service management, technical governance and compliance.

Chapter 20

This chapter is about key traits of exceptional leaders in digital ventures. Technical leaders are expected to lead with excellence rather than perfection. Excellence refers to demonstrating outstanding quality for the leaders by making a noticeable impact on the followers. Since leaders lead the way, followers expect their leaders to be tolerant of uncertainty and ambiguity. Taking risk is one of the necessities in digital ventures.

Chapter 21

IoT (Internet of Things) is a complex technology and business domain touching many aspects of technology infrastructure, business applications, and commercial services. Digital ventures use a plethora of IoT devices, process tools, storage, hosting, and consumer products, including customer services. IoT is rapidly growing globally and being a substantial contributor to the economy. When compared to all aspects of an IoT solution, Security comes at the top of the list.
Digital Intelligence — Chapter 21 medium.com

Chapter 22

I overemphasised the architectural rigour on purpose. We cannot compromise the rigour aiming to improve products and services as a target outcome for modernisation and transformation goals in the enterprise. However, there must be a delicate balance between architectural rigour, business value, and speed to market. Applying a pragmatic approach to multiple substantial transformation initiatives and complex modernisations programs has been beneficial for me.

The Importance of Design Thinking Practice & Thought Leadership
Thinkers360
October 14, 2021

This is my first blog post on the Thinkers360 network.

I am a practitioner and thought leader in the design thinking discipline.

Design thinking is a globally recognized and practised solution approach. Technology leaders and entrepreneurs embrace design thinking for various compelling reasons that I introduce in this article. Design thinking is considered the most powerful tool for startup entrepreneurs.

I am inspired to write this post after learning that my design thinking contributions are recognized by the Thinkers360 network, as announced on LinkedIn today. Annually, the Thinkers360 network organization assesses contributors and informs the public about the top 50 leaders and influencers in the field.

In this post, I briefly introduce the Thinkers360 network, define design thinking, and share my experience of why entrepreneurs need to use design thinking and add it to their leadership toolbox.

As a Certified Enterprise Design Thinking Practitioner since 2017, I wrote books, scholarly papers and penned several articles about design thinking on multiple platforms.

The recent one on this platform is titled: Power of Design Thinking for Writers: Design Thinking is one of the most powerful tools for my professional and personal goals. I apply it to my writing practice too.
