Predstavitev

Povzetek

Arnes letos praznuje 20 let. Ob tej priložnosti se bomo spomnili nekaterih mejnikov v razvoju omrežja, z nekaterimi novimi storitvami pa bomo tudi predstavili precej bolj zaokroženo ponudbo Arnesa. Spomnili se bomo nekaterih primerov dobre prakse, ki nam kažejo, da tehnologiji dajemo smisel ljudje z njeno uporabo. In ljudje smo danes bolj kot kdajkoli prej v žarišču razvoja te tehnologije – naše navade v družbenih omrežjih, varna raba interneta in skrb za zasebnost so teme, ki so v svet tehnologije prinesle potrebo po družboslovnem in humanističnem pogledu.

Sodelovanje je ključna beseda, ko se pogovarjamo o smernicah razvoja omrežnih storitev. Je tudi gonilo koncepta federacij – medsebojnega povezovanja storitev in naših e-identitet – ki je ponovno v ospredju letošnje konference. Pomeni pa tudi – in to je med drugim izkušnja teh 20 let – da je izgradnja omrežja ljudi enako, če ne bolj pomembna kot omrežje iz žic, naprav in pametnega programja. SIRikt je pomemben element tega omrežja. Negujmo ga.

Abstract

Arnes is celebrating its 20th anniversary. We will take the opportunity to recall certain network development milestones and to present our considerably expanded range of services. We will also recall some best practices that demonstrate that it is up to us, humans, to make sense of the technology by using it creatively. Human behaviour is also the focus of the internet technology development – our habits in social networks, safe use of the internet and privacy concerns are all issues which introduce social sciences and humanities into the world of technology.

Collaboration is the keyword whenever we discuss trends in network service development. It is at the heart of the concept of federated services and user identities, which once again we bring into focus at this year's conference. But 20 years of experiences suggests that, for progress, building a network of people is at least as important as building a network of wires, devices and smart software. The SIRikt conference is an important element of this network.
