Khaadi Goes 100% Digital with Tukatech Fashion Technology
Khaadi, a top fashion brand in Karachi, Pakistan eliminates paper pattern-making from product design and development using fashion technology solutions from Tukatech KARACHI, Pakistan, June 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Khaadi, a top fashion brand in Karachi, Pakistan eliminated paper pattern-making from product design and development using fashion technology solutions from Tukatech. Khaadi's team of nearly 60 fashion and textile designers use TUKAcad for digital pattern-making, grading, and marker-making; TUKA3D for virtual sample-making; and TUKAcloud for web-based design collaboration and communication. Khaadi Goes 100% Digital with Tukatech Fashion Technology Previously the Khaadi design team worked manually. They drafted patterns by hand on paper and assessed design and fit with physical samples. Saira Shamoon, Fashion Design Department Head for Khaadi explains, "There was a lot of human error. When it went into production, we saw a lot of fit and grading issues." Shamoon attributes these issues to the minute differences in the "hand" of each designer. These small differences translate to bigger disparities in bulk production. With a vision to expand Khaadi into new global markets, the IT team also saw a need for more robust infrastructure in the design department. "Growing globally requires scalability," asserts Rehan Qadri, Khaadi's Chief Technology Officer. "Scalability requires lower lead times, higher levels of technology, and higher levels of automation." For this reason, Khaadi initiated a digital transformation in their design studio. Now the fashion designers work from graded digital pattern blocks in TUKAcad. This frees them to make style line changes without disturbing the fit. Since every style comes from the same blocks, fit is more consistent between styles. In addition, the fashion designers simulate their styles in TUKA3D. They understand how each garment will drape and fit with real-time motion simulation. The draped silhouettes become like digital "blanks" for Khaadi' s textile designers to visualize their artwork. They arrange repeats, placement prints, and embroideries on the 3D sample. Then each department reviews the full collection digitally on TUKAcloud, before any physical samples are made. Since design evaluations now happen virtually, the team makes decisions quickly without wasting resources. Shamoon details, "We've reduced the army of people we had to hire to do pattern-making, cutting, sewing, printing, and embroidery just to see a sample." Both Shamoon and Qadri are excited to use TUKAcloud as a web-based digital sample-room. According to Qadri, "The designers focus on the creativity, rather than getting involved with administrative or operational issues." Shamoon echoes, "TUKAcloud enables the designers to work on their own time and share ideas quickly. They focus on the creative end more than get stuck up in meetings." Savannah Crawford, Chief Collaborator for Tukatech, explains, "One challenge that comes with a digital design process is to keep all the files and communication organized. TUKAcloud serves as a centralized hub for all the digital samples across Khaadi's different departments, as well as the associated technical files, and design elements." The designers then use TUKAcloud as an asset library and reference point for new style ideas. Tukatech's team of fashion technology experts trained Khaadi's design team on-site. After the completion of training, each designer received a certificate of proficiency and achievement. The Khaadi designers have embraced their new digital workflow. Shamoon is please to say the inconsistencies from manual pattern-making are no longer an issue for the designers. "They see the flexibility in it, the possibilities in it, and the correctness in the technology." About Khaadi: In 1998, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Shamoon Sultan, set out to revive the ancient craft of the handloom and popularize the traditional medium in a contemporary manner. What began as a single store startup in Karachi, Pakistan has quickly transformed into a robust brand with international presence. Khaadi, an Urdu word which means "hand-woven," has stayed true to its name and continues to produce a fusion of styles to complement both the East and West, while still using hand-woven fabrics on selected products. For more information visit: https://www.khaadi.com/ About Tukatech, Inc.: Tukatech is the garment and apparel industry's leading provider of end-to-end fashion technology solutions. Founded in 1995 by garment-industry veteran Ram Sareen, Tukatech offers award-winning 2D pattern making, grading, and marker making software, automated marker making software, 3D sample making/virtual prototyping software, as well as garment plotters, and automatic spreaders and cutters for production.

Wimbledon & IBM Herald The Role Of AI To Maintain A Competitive Advantage In Sports Landscape
LONDON, June 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) and IBM (NYSE: IBM) today continued the pledge of their partnership to leverage disruptive innovation to elevate and differentiate the iconic traditional tennis tournament. View over Wimbledon courts. Credit AELTC Announcing a series of innovations for The Championships 2019 across AI and Cloud, maximising the opportunities presented by IBM's core strategic capabilities, the 30-year-old partners maintained the importance of challenging the status quo through technology. For 30 years, IBM has worked in partnership with the AELTC year-round and during The Championships to deliver everything from IT operations to fan facing digital properties, including the latest apps and the award-winning Wimbledon website. IBM helps Wimbledon use AI to make processes more efficient, to make experiences more insightful, and ensure The Championships runs safely and securely for its critical three-week period. New for 2019: Enhanced AI-powered automated video highlights for Wimbledon fans. Not all highlights during a tennis match are equal for example, a highly passionate crowd favourite could generate more excitement than a more reserved yet equally skilled opponent. As a learning system, Watson has been taught to better recognise acoustics and understand inadvertent bias increasing the quality of the output. With sound analysis from Watson Acoustics, the system can now recognise when the ball has been struck, allowing a tighter cropping of highlight clips saving vital time and maximising every second of rights footage. Using Watson Open Scale, the system can now recognise levels of noise and excitement levels of players, allowing it to remove bias when searching for highlights from players with a particularly vocal following or those who are particularly animated on court. New for 2019, IBM and Wimbledon have developed a progressive web app to provide a service for Wimbledon audiences in territories with lower bandwidth and less developed mobile hardware. Acknowledging that over 900 million fans in India for example, express an interest in Wimbledon, the new progressive web app is designed to provide a lightweight experience to ensure that fans in those territories can make sure they don't miss out on the latest scores and results. IBM works with the AELTC to deliver everything from design capability (via IBM iX), to building and integrating the latest systems and applications. IBM ensures the continuous availability and scalability of Wimbledon's digital properties by securing Wimbledon to the core. For example, during the 2018 Championships IBM detected and blocked over 200 million suspicious security events. IBM has over 200 of its people dedicating their skills and expertise to helping Wimbledon in its pursuit of greatness; delivering award-winning solutions built on years of global sports, media and industry expertise. "For 30 years we have been working with Wimbledon to introduce new technologies that enhance fan experience. For more than a century, IBM has responsibly ushered into the world revolutionary technologies, building enterprise solutions that are trusted as part of our DNA, and we are dedicated to delivering AI systems that are built responsibly. It seems fitting that to mark the 30th year of our partnership, one of the new innovations for The Championships, Wimbledon 2019 will be eliminating bias in creation of the video highlights package." Sam Seddon IBM Wimbledon Client Executive. "For 30 years, IBM's technology innovations have been at the heart of our efforts to continuing our journey towards a great digital experience that ensures we connect with our fans globally wherever they may be watching and from whatever device that may be. Our partnership with IBM is critical to us in helping us to disrupt the traditional perceptions of Wimbledon through innovative, world-class uses of technology, in particular, enabling us to place content with fans where they want to consume it and acknowledge the ever-increasing focus on video and new content formats." Alexandra Willis, Head of Communications, Content and Digital, AELTC.

Artificial Solutions Continues Momentum in Conversational AI Market
STOCKHOLM, June 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Artificial Solutions® (FNSE:ASAI), the leading specialist in enterprise-strength conversational AI, announced today that it is continuing its successful momentum as the conversational AI market starts to mature. Renewals prove technology success Over the last three months Artificial Solutions has ramped up activities across its strategic sales channels. Recent new business comes from a wide range of market sectors including national government, postal services, telecoms, pharmaceutical, insurance and the airline industry. There have also been strong renewals from the company's installed customer base which includes AT&T, Shell and Vodafone, who have all extended their long-term commitment to the Teneo® platform with increased volumes; confirmation that Artificial Solutions' revolutionary conversational AI development platform, is delivering the results enterprises expect. Sales strategy delivers new opportunities At the same time, Artificial Solutions clear partner focus is reaping rewards with a wealth of opportunities in traditional and emerging marketplaces. New clients include Swisscom, Switzerland's leading telecoms company, and Medtronic, the global leader in medical technology. The company has also extended its partner network with globally significant consultant companies including Capgemini and Deloitte, while expanding its industry specialization partnerships with companies such as Rucker Lypsa. Part of EDAG group, one of the largest independent automotive engineering companies in the world, the relationship with Rucker Lypsa will see Teneo used to develop conversational AI applications for the automotive industry. "There is a definite shift in the way enterprises are deploying our conversational AI technology," says Andy Peart CMSO of Artificial Solutions. "We can see from both our installed customer base and new clients that the use of conversational AI is being strategized at a higher level within organizations. CIOs are building centers of excellence that allow them to bring together disparate projects and share resources. At the same time the projects themselves are becoming more complex and involved in order to reach high level goals and deliver business benefits across departments and regions." Nasdaq First North listing drives the future For over a decade, Artificial Solutions has been pioneering conversational AI, and so it was with great excitement that the company listed on Nasdaq First North in March 2019 to take the company forward in its next growth stage. This move will allow Artificial Solutions to capitalize on new opportunities as the demand for conversational AI takes off. The company also added three new members to its Board to support the next stage of its journey. Teneo Fusion delivering advance conversational AI April saw the launch of Teneo Fusion, the latest version of the platform that blends significant enhancements to the technology, with business value measurements to deliver the ultimate conversational AI experience. Teneo Fusion enables enterprises to dramatically improve the quality of their conversational interfaces, while taking control of the chatbot landscape and demonstrating clear business value within the organization. Teneo Developers a veritable smorgasbord of conversational AI resources In addition, Artificial Solutions introduced Teneo Developers, a new comprehensive resource to allow enterprise developers and partners fast access to experience the power of Teneo. The portal was created to help developers frustrated by the lack of capability and intelligent design in the general chatbot marketplace today. Regional expansion into APAC The company has also expanded its global reach with the opening of new offices in Singapore, headed up by Chris Tew, VP APAC, a veteran of the IT industry in the region. Chris will nurture and develop the growing interest from the leading system integrators in the region that are looking to incorporate Conversational AI in their wider digital transformation portfolios. Maturity in the market will bring changes "The conversational AI market is maturing. It's no longer a series of individual projects, haphazardly put together, but a measured and controlled approach that enables scalability across languages, channels and the enterprise itself," says Andy Peart. "While many enterprises are starting to widen the scope of their conversational AI strategy with applications that deliver many benefits to departments from customer service to sales to HR, these bots don't tend to share information. "In the coming months we expect to see enterprises planning for an intranet of conversational AI applications that are able to work together seamlessly, sharing information. Intelligent routing will allow for the handover process between apps to occur in several different ways including the ability for a master application or super-bot to deliver it themselves and the ability to prioritize the order in which knowledge resources are delivered."

Essential frameworks delivered in six weeks; 14x increase in application update velocity SINGAPORE, SYDNEY and TORONTO, June 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Sourced Group (Sourced), a global IT consulting firm specialising in large-scale cloud transformations, is pleased to be engaged by Singapore Airlines (SIA) in its digital transformation program. Working jointly with SIA, Sourced helped modernise the airline's application development process by establishing a new cloud delivery pipeline. As part of the engagement, Sourced also helped migrate applications from SIA's data centre to the AWS Cloud and provided training in cloud and modern DevOps practices. Cloud adoption and application development modernisation are elements of SIA's digital transformation program. The program will enable the airline to better serve its global customer base through increased agility and innovation. Sourced delivered the essential AWS Cloud infrastructure, application pipelines and compliance templates (including the extensive security and controls necessary to meet regulatory requirements) in six weeks using its Cloud at Scale™ Core Foundations program. The program shortens lead times and enables enterprise clients in regulated industries to realise early benefits of cloud adoption. Sourced was also involved in the adoption of modern application development methods, including continuous delivery and rolling immutable infrastructure to enable high velocity application updates. Through automation using serverless technologies such as AWS Lambda, SIA can make changes to an application in a matter of minutes and build multiple versions of the application per business day without downtime using Sourced's blue/green deployment methodology.

TAIPEI, Taiwan, June 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- InnoVEX, the startup focused exhibition of COMPUTEX has ended on May 31 with great fanfare. Having a trend of high growth in previous years prompted a venue shift to the much larger TWTC Hall 1 to accommodate more visitors and more exhibitors. InnoVEX has continued to grow significantly since it began in 2016. The number of visitors grew from 10,957 in 2016 to 18,251 in 2019; while the number of exhibitors increased from 217 to 467 over the course of 4 years. The expanded InnoVEX 2019 closed with the InnoVEX Pitch Contest Award Ceremony. The winners are: MedFluid, MTAMTech, Ganzin, MIFLY, OSD, PurCity, and OmniEyes The 467 startups that exhibited come from 25 countries and regions: Brazil, Canada, Mainland China, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Myanmar, Netherlands, Philippines, Poland, Russia, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, the U.K. and the U.S.. Biotech has gained a stronger presence in InnoVEX 2019 as many exhibitors were focused on innovative products, solutions, and applications in biotech. It was also one of the main topics of the InnoVEX Forum, and 2 of the 7 winners of the InnoVEX Pitch Contest were also biotech startups. InnoVEX was also visited by the Founder and Chairman of Foxconn, Mr. Terry Gou. He stated that exhibitions are vital to Taiwan as it can bring a more innovation driven growth to Taiwan. Startups need market and capital funding platforms, which is why he wanted to help build Taiwan into an ICT investment island. Strong Government Support in InnoVEX Innovation, new technology, and startups are not only on demand from the private organizations, but also government. Seeing how startups can actually benefit everyone involved; including startups, corporations, and government; it is not a surprise that InnoVEX was greatly supported by the government; both local and international. The opening of InnoVEX 2019 was attended by the Premier of R.O.C (Taiwan), Minister of Science and Technology, Deputy Minister of Economic Affairs, and more local government representatives. The international government representatives that attended were Mayor of Eindhoven, the Deputy at the French Assemblee Nationale and 23 international trade office representatives. Many of the exhibitors this year were part of pavilions coordinated by government bodies, bringing global innovation and perspective to InnoVEX. For example, the largest pavilion in InnoVEX 2019 is the Startup Terrace Pavilion, which is a startup base under the Small and Medium Enterprise Administration (SMEA) of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA). The pavilion brought 153 startups with founders from around the world. Startup Terrace also sponsored 5 awards for the InnoVEX Pitch Contest worth a total USD 300,000 in addition to corporate resources and residency in the Startup Terrace itself. Taiwan Tech Arena (TTA) under the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) also organized a pavilion joined by 79 startups from multiple industries.

One of the speakers from the AI session is Dr. Min Sun, the Chief AI Scientist of Appier. He remarked in his keynote that currently there are 2 missing pieces to reaching the next stage of AI: Human centered AI (using AI to augment human capabilities) and Auto ML. While AI is a powerful tool, it does not mean that AI has to be applied everywhere. The blockchain forum focused on the many possible uses of blockchain as a technology. The co-founder of IOTA Foundation, Mr. Dominik Schiener stated in his keynote that while many devices rely on IoT, the technology might have been built on the wrong premises infrastructure which can turn IoT into a security threat. He suggested using a distributed ledger to improve the security of IoT; to create immutable & verifiable data, digital identity for machines, machine-to-machine transactions, and autonomous systems. The startup ecosystem forum sessions are covered multiple topics, with one of the main topics being Global Entrepreneurship Insights. One of the speakers is the Managing Director at Alchemist Accelerator, Mr. Ravi Belani who is also the chief judge of the InnoVEX 2019 Pitch Contest. In his keynote speech, he stated that he hoped Taiwan could leapfrog Silicon Valley and create disruption in unforeseen ways. The difference between a mediocre and a big company is in the way it is strategized. The main points are: gross margins, which will have an exponential effect on the company's cashflow; using new technologies; and network effects. Biotech Gains Prominence in the InnoVEX Pitch Contest As one of the main industries of the exhibitors, biotech and its related industries also gained prominence in this year's InnoVEX Pitch Contest.

PrimeYield's innovative fast statistical engine uniquely leverages the core engines of Synopsys' gold-standard PrimeTime® signoff and HSPICE® simulation tools and overcomes the turnaround time challenges that previously prohibited full statistical pre-silicon yield analysis with machine learning technologies, enabling pre-silicon design yield analysis and optimization for every design of any size. With the addition of yield as a fourth design quality metric, now PPA-Y (power, performance, area, and yield), the Synopsys Fusion Design Platform™ can deliver silicon designs that are faster, lower power, and the most cost effective. Accelerated by machine learning technology, PrimeYield performs fast Monte Carlo statistical simulation on critical timing paths with true HSPICE accuracy within minutes, versus the days or weeks required by full statistical simulations. Its patented parametric yield analysis with statistical correlation modeling enables true statistical-based yield analysis and optimization on large-scale SoCs with billions of cells, an analysis previously feasible only for a few dozen cells. PrimeYield can rapidly identify and drive optimization of yield-impacting cells caused by statistical correlation and sensitivity to various design variations, such as supply voltage drops or manufacturing variability, while using industry standard inputs for immediate deployment. "Synopsys has a long history of close customer collaborations to drive technology innovations for the growing challenges of SoC design," said Jacob Avidan, senior vice president of engineering in Synopsys' Design Group.
