Orange Labs Mobile cloud computing workshop

1. DRAFT Orange LabsMobile cloud computing workshop Möller Centre Cambridge 6 January 2010 Workshop output document Date 13 January 2010

2. Summary This workshop opened up many new directions for exploration, covering strategy, process, and context as well as the mobile cloud computing project itself • The primary purpose of the workshop was to create a range of new perspectives on the mobile cloud computing (MCC) project – assembled from the views of independent and objective experts, with little prior exposure to the details of the project but with insights and knowledge drawn from many different fields. The workshop brought together a wide range of practitioners, including experts in design practice, psychology, social anthropology, innovation, social geography, strategy and computing, as well as the Orange team. • The resulting questions illustrate many critical areas that Orange will need to address in order to exploit MCC as effectively as possible – covering strategy, competition, business models and propositions as well as use cases and candidate services. For example: • As Orange moves to deliver services and experience, rather than just network access, how will it differentiate itself from its competitors? • Who will be the new competition and how should Orange prevent such competitors from setting the rules of the game, especially as cloud computing blurs the sourcing of competitive advantage from device, data, computing power, software, service and the customer experience? • How will Orange find and achieve the best balance between leading the consumer, supporting the developer and responding to customers’ needs and wishes, often unarticulated? • The answers to such questions set the context for the MCC project and should profoundly influence its direction and evolution. This document classifies the broad-ranging questions from the workshop as follows: • Shared understanding, definition and communication • Strategy and business model • Services and the User experience • Device / Cloud Architectures and Data implications • Project management and innovation processes Mobile Cloud Computing Workshop – Cambridge 6th January 2010

3. Summary Questions and topics from the workshop are a rich resource for Orange to explore in greater depth The questions aim not to be a complete set, but to provide a valuable starting point and should be fleshed out and the answers resolved in order to build a shared, coherent and communicated strategy for Orange to pursue. Because of the importance of open innovation and of a deep understanding of potential user response in this new and unfolding landscape Orange must maintain a judicious balance between clarity of strategic intent and, simultaneously, openness to new opportunity and the agility to pursue it. Having intentionally set out to create as wide a range of questions as possible, the workshop then focused in on two questions. These were chosen by the participants on the basis of interest and the maximum potential to cross-fertilise ideas and insights. The first question viewed data as an organic entity, asking, “How far can data become ‘organic’ and grow (naturally) from the user’s needs?” Thinking of data as an evolving organic entity offers Orange a novel way to explore dynamic opportunities and barriers in MCC. The workshop flagged up critical issues in: ·The trust that users have in Orange as a holder of personally important data ·The interplay between the cloud and the device ·Myriad issues around data management and data provenance and security Resolving such issues will mean the difference between compelling user propositions and corporate embarrassment. Finally the workshop focused in on the question of mobility; “How does cloud computing change when you are mobile?” By looking at the characteristics of the mobile device workshop participants highlighted the importance of the phone as a tool for personal identification and its shortcomings as an interface device for the rich facilities offered by the cloud. This creates a starting point to explore services and scenarios in which the ownership and identification embodied in the phone will enable new opportunities. There will also be opportunities in exploring mobility and network access for a whole range of other devices that make different functional trade-offs to those embodied in today’s phone, broadening Orange’s options for differentiated services.

4. Summary The key to success will lie in integrating considerations of the strategic and the social as well as the technical Viewed as a starting point, the workshop illustrates several directions that Orange might explore. Some of these are strategic and concern positioning and partnering, focus and understanding the competitive landscape. Others address the ways in which Orange innovates and its choice of stance as a leader or fast follower. These are vitally important questions for management to set the context for the MCC project (and more generally) and are all areas where the external experts at the workshop would be interested to continue discussions. For the MCC project itself, the workshop highlighted new avenues for exploration, focusing on the data and its management as well as the more obvious issues of devices and networks. Developing scenarios and use cases within which the team can develop and explore propositions should consider the dimensions of the mobile experience to bound the space, then check coverage by asking how mobile apps and internet access have already transformed people’s lives. From here questions raised in the workshop allow different aspects of the user experience to be considered. Here, as elsewhere, the social element will be as important as the technical, maybe more so. Recurring themes in the workshop showed that Orange need to consider not only their own propositions but also those of competitors – without being blinded to Orange’s assets and uniqueness. What might Google and Apple do – but how might they fail? What can Orange gain from its customer relationships to build trust and preference? Hence the creation and exploration of scenarios should cover attitudes and perceptions as well as use cases, services and devices. It is clear that Orange have deep capability in articulating options and opportunities based on the network, the devices and their functionality. Opening consideration to the data, to identities and to community may yield the breakthroughs to truly differentiate. The workshop demonstrated just one way that Orange can engage with interdisciplinary resources to craft its propositions, its prototypes and its exploration of the mobile cloud computing landscape.

Hence notes on Raffel Uddin’s and Kashif Chaudrey’s demonstration of the device delivering ‘web runtime’ functionality and Abdellatif Benjelloun’s introductory presentation are not included here. • Workshop participants and their areas of interest are listed at the end of this document • The workshop comprised the following phases, reflected in the structure of this document • Introduction • to participants and to the context of the work • Developing interesting questions • Choosing questions in which to focus • Addressing the two chosen questions • In his introduction, Alan Blackwell, leader of the workshop emphasised that the outcome of workshops such as these are contingent on the mix and interests of the different participants. The content is not pre-defined, so allowing potentially radical insights to emerge without the constraint of prior mindsets and prejudices. The material emerged through a dynamic interplay between participants. This document partially structures the material developed in order to make it more accessible, while the temporal order of capture on flip charts of the original material is recorded in the Appendix for those who wish to seek different structures and insights Mobile Cloud Computing Workshop – Cambridge 6th January 2010

25. 3 The ‘organic data’ question The first of two questions chosen by participants’ votes: “How far can data become ‘organic’ and grow (naturally) from the user’s needs?” Privacy, provenance and paranoia • Addressing this question is consistent with a focus on the data rather than the device – and hence favourable to Orange • Does the cloud collect data for you? • Can data transform itself? • This puts data at the core of the proposition • Data and services become interlinked / exchanged – and so become “organic”, growing with the data (and capability) • Improving the use and interaction with data • Raising questions of the provenance and ownership / control of data • Is the data backed up? If so where and how does one track location of data? • What is the usability model of the data itself? • Do you need metadata to manage the data? What about the changing cultural conventions and attitudes towards data and privacy? • Is this a conversation or a robot butler? • Conversation – reflecting social norms (cultural context) about how much information is made available and for what uses • “Robot butler” – algorithmic and subject to clumsiness • Is this about privacy? • Service push? • Recommender systems? • What do my friends like? (said to be be more influential than recommendations derived from populations showing similar usage patterns) • Nosy by nature • Avoid “My Tivo thinks I’m gay” phenomenon (intelligence in the system that the user doesn’t understand) • Should the use of personally revealing data be transparent to the user or should it all be anonymised? • Are (the user’s) intentions clear? • Partial information fuels paranoia Mobile Cloud Computing Workshop – Cambridge 6th January 2010

26. 3 The ‘organic data’ question The first of two questions chosen by participants’ votes: “How far can data become ‘organic’ and grow (naturally) from the user’s needs?” Communities and corporates • How can we avoid the burden of having to explain ourselves? • Like the dynamic of your Facebook pictures attracting comments • What are the implications of different communities of cloud? • a ‘family cloud’ • a ‘friends cloud’ • a ‘colleagues cloud’ • A corporate opportunity? • Configuration management, especially during roll-out of new services? • What data does Orange have? (and how does this compare to the data that Google has and how it might be used?) • Address book - Cell location • Call record - Status – on voice call • Billing data - Demographics • App purchase - Market survey data? • Micropayments? (Using the Orange account as a source of payments) SERVICE IDEAS • An app to tell me “where are the rich people?” • Location-based service with crime data warning • Location-based service for parking availability • For families and children – a surveillance or awareness function • “whereabouts clock” on the phone • time limited to expire old data • With opt in/out • “Live address book” • tells of on-line availability / status • Can my friends change their entries in my address book? • Can my device show my location to my friends?
