The Rise of the Open Network: Or How I was David Isenberged into Submission

JP Rangaswami, Chief Scientist/Chairman, British Telecom/Ribbit

Date: Monday, April 19

Time: 10:07 - 10:30 AM

Location: Salon E

"The Rise of The Stupid Network" was a seminal paper written thirteen years ago by a hero of mine, David Isenberg. Since that original paper, the commoditisation of hardware has continued apace: bits are no longer as closely coupled with atoms as they used to be. Software is more and more driven by platforms and communities, as the "invisible engine" takes root. 

JP Rangaswami, Chief Scientist, BT Group, and Chairman, Ribbit Corporation, looks at these trends from the perspective of Ribbit: its acquisition by BT, its integration into the wider community of BT, the role now played by the startup within the larger enterprise, and the lessons we can take from that experience.
