Dr. Augustine Fou discusses several examples of how social media has been effectively used by companies for marketing purposes and provides lessons learned. Positive examples include a TNT video ad that received 22 million views in 5 days, a Kony 2012 documentary video that received 112 million views in a week, and how American Express and JetBlue leveraged feedback and social sharing to launch new products. Negative examples include a problematic #McDStories campaign and a disgusting Domino's Pizza video. The key lesson is that social media can greatly amplify marketing messages for better or worse, so companies must plan carefully and be prepared to leverage social amplification, not just place ads.

Formal Methods: Whence and Whither? [Martin Fr?nzle Festkolloquium, 2025]Jonathan Bowen

Alan Turing arguably wrote the first paper on formal methods 75 years ago. Since then, there have been claims and counterclaims about formal methods. Tool development has been slow but aided by Moore��s Law with the increasing power of computers. Although formal methods are not widespread in practical usage at a heavyweight level, their influence as crept into software engineering practice to the extent that they are no longer necessarily called formal methods in their use. In addition, in areas where safety and security are important, with the increasing use of computers in such applications, formal methods are a viable way to improve the reliability of such software-based systems. Their use in hardware where a mistake can be very costly is also important. This talk explores the journey of formal methods to the present day and speculates on future directions.
