Akraino Forum's purpose is to facilitate the on-going flow of Information to TSC and BPs' PTLs in terms of seminars, that take place each Tuesday at the Akraino TSC meetings today. The presentations are conducted either by Akraino TSC member or a guest invited by Akraino TSC member.
Akraino TSC has undertaken the step to institutionalise the process of flow of Information in form of presentations to be streamlined and target to directly address issues that currently Akraino PTL's and/or Akraino TSC members face to resolve on the way to achieve the set Akraino Project objectives.
The issues might be related to SW execution or SoC Capacity e.g. GPUs built to serve Metaverse UCs, 5G, IoT, K8, ICN, IEC, etc.
Akraino TSC has undertaken the step to assess the possibility to utilize Akraino Forum for generating and evolving innovative ideas as a place where the Akraino BPs' PTLs and Community mebers various issues and need of specific information is identified and listed and consequesnly, used a guideline to set and prepare the Information Content of the Presentation scheduled to be performed each Tuesday.
The model behind that process used to outline the Issues and Needs is denoted as G.A. I. N. (What is Needed to resolve the Issue that hinders/stands on the way to achive the Goal) (please see attached below Ref. Ericsson PtW).
Related to "Governance and Process", Akraino TSC is well aware about research outcomes related to "Brainstorming", as a "good" source for providing variety of ideas, but being a "bad" source and activity for providing "innovative ideas". There is also awareness on the distinction made in "Theory of Innovation" (1997), by Prof. Clayton Christensen between "Sustaining Innovation" and "Disruptive Innovation".
On the study and its outcomes on Brainstorming negative effect on finding Innovative ideas, please see in the attached bellow two (2) sources, namely:
