Master's thesis topic was on [[Open Source Appropriate Technology]] under the supervision of [[User:J.M.Pearce|Dr. Joshua Pearce]].  


Just as we are all connected, so is everything co-related and the key to understanding world's problems is in comprehension of all of the elements that influence them. This means study of the entire social, technological, cultural and political factors that affect our lives as well as our relationship/ effects in them.  
Also worked with Let's Talk Science, Queen's University chapter as one of the coordinators for community High School engagement in things science related, as well as Engineering for Change (E4C) on drafting appropriate technology evaluation platform for a workshop conference held in New York 2012.

'''Open Source Appropriate Technology and Sustainable Development'''
Summary and results page from my Master's research paper published in the [http://www.ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/jsd/article/view/12176 Journal of Sustainable Development]


Questions:
Can we improve development of appropriate technology (smart/ efficient/ relevant tech) using the paradigm of open access/ open source/ knowledge commons where information, technical know-how and general knowledge is shared and improved by working together as a community? What are the barriers to development, AT and open source? Is one of the solutions to establish rich interconnected networks/ website/ database/ wikis for all A.T. related needs? How can we speed it up and scale up? What role are ICTs and Internet playing and what is their impact on appropriate technology and development in general? What are some example of the benefits of open source/ open access paradigm, innovation through collaboration + crowd-sourcing? How have the internet and ICTs already been used to spur innovation faster in new and creative ways?


Barriers to sustainable development and appropriate technology are complex as there are a lot of variables involved - but as it's been said before: the complexity of the matter must not paralyze us into inaction! Identifying problems leads to finding solutions, and the more hands and eyes working on it together the faster the process of development evolves. "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow" - Raymond.

[http://www.appropedia.org/images/f/fa/MES_Ivana_Zelenika.pdf Barriers to OSAT for Sustainable Development]
<br /> '''Importance of the Appropriate Technology for a sustainable development'''
<br />Schumacher: Small is Beautiful: Intermediate non-violent technologies a must
<br />Less strain on environmental resources - global population expanding, resources finite, climate destabilization etc.
<br />Creative, engaging and meaningful work for people
<br />Using technologies, resources and tools wisely
<br />Necessary in Developing countries as well as everywhere: we are all in the same boat
<br />Sustainable development/ development studies: feedback and engaging people from all levels important
<br />
<br /> '''Open Source, Open Access and Knowledge Commons - the future of innovation'''
<br /> Two heads are smarter than one: feedback and exchange of knowledge expands richness and wisdom
<br /> Faster innovation and development is objective; working together and sharing, collaborating will speed up innovation
<br />Academia, Science Commons, Seti@home, YouTube, Wikipedia, user feedback (news, media etc) - open source gaining steam
<br />Continuity: building on knowledge faster - facilitates development – exchange of ideas/ sharing, feedback
<br> Design: purpose, sustainability and simplicity main objective
<br> Variety: having a choice/ right to choose, alternatives, richness, experience, independence and empowerment
<br /> Open Libraries, Open Government, Open Everything - providing information for all people of the World
<br />The Power of numbers + Sharing, Innovating, Collaborating - changing the world one click at a time.
<br />Jeremy Rifkin: empathic civilization - internet bringing us together, connecting more with each other, understanding, and optimism (Yes We Can!) - knowledge/ news/ facts/ possibilities under our fingertips
<br />
<br />'''Methodology'''
<br />a) Literature Review barriers to OSAT
<br />b) Interviews identified barriers to OSAT: discussions and results
<br />
<br />'''Barriers Explored'''
<br /> How are they similar, analysis and interpretation etc
<br />
<br />'''Breaking down the Barriers to Open Source Appropriate Technology Collaboration with Information and Communication Technology'''
<br />
<br /> '''Success of Open Source Software: Can a similar paradigm be adopted for OSAT facilitation?'''
<br> OS – success of open source software – how and why: robust, relevant, affordable technology build by people for the people
<br> Again: if the idea is faster and better innovation then non-proprietary solutions a way to go
<br> Internet the great catalyst of OSAT: speed, ease, inter-connectedness: making it happen - the time is now!
<br /> OS / OA examples are all around us: people just need to recognize its use, purpose and join the cause
<br> Online OSAT Database needed: the go to place to find OSAT solutions (i.e. Appropedia, ATC, etc)
<br />What is needed? What are the barriers? Formation and organization? More participation?
<br />
<br /> '''Further research - discussion'''
<br />
<br /> Taking it to the next level and how? Academic/ Service Learning + Gov't + Civic Engagement
<br /> Results of the interviews: What are people saying- what is needed? 
<br /> Service Learning aspect - students and professors laying out the groundwork through on hand projects
<br /> More internet + Wikis + Collaborative work use in classrooms, NGOSs, Gov'ts + Companies - share the knowledge + build upon it
<br /> General public / volunteers lending a hand - feeling involved, community building etc
<br /> Government agencies providing funding, means and tools while public does the work - Everyone wins!

<u>Key Points by Eric Raymond in ''The Cathedral and the Bazaar''</u><br>
Questions:
Can we improve development of appropriate technology (smart/ efficient/ relevant tech) using the paradigm of open access/ open source/ knowledge commons where information, technical know-how and general knowledge is shared and improved by working together as a community?
What are the barriers to development, AT and open source? How do we establish rich interconnected networks/ website/ database/ wikis for all A.T. related needs to facilitate self-directed development? How can we speed it up and scale up? What role are ICTs and Internet playing and what is their impact on appropriate technology and development in general? What are some example of the benefits of open source/ open access paradigm, innovation through collaboration + crowd-sourcing? How have the internet and ICTs already been used to spur innovation faster in new and creative ways?
What role do social, cultural and economic barriers play in sustainable development? How much can biomimicry and small scale systems improve energy and development challenges.


*Feedback -&nbsp; very important; users are co-developers (works for open source software and same for O.S.A.T.)
Barriers to sustainable development and appropriate technology are complex as there are a lot of variables involved - but as it's been said before: the complexity of the matter must not paralyze us into inaction - identifying problems leads to finding solutions, and the more hands and eyes working on it together the faster the process of development evolves.
*Clearly established idea / project - can be several but clearly defined
*Leadership + Effective Coordination + Cooperation
* #1 ingredient - a tool as good as Internet!

--

Questions: Can we improve development of appropriate technology (smart/ efficient/ relevant tech) using the paradigm of open access/ open source/ knowledge commons where information, technical know-how and general knowledge is shared and improved by working together as a community? What are the barriers to development, AT and open source? How do we establish rich interconnected networks/ website/ database/ wikis for all A.T. related needs to facilitate self-directed development? How can we speed it up and scale up? What role are ICTs and Internet playing and what is their impact on appropriate technology and development in general? What are some example of the benefits of open source/ open access paradigm, innovation through collaboration + crowd-sourcing? How have the internet and ICTs already been used to spur innovation faster in new and creative ways? What role do social, cultural and economic barriers play in sustainable development? How much can biomimicry and small scale systems improve energy and development challenges.

Barriers to sustainable development and appropriate technology are complex as there are a lot of variables involved - but as it's been said before: the complexity of the matter must not paralyze us into inaction - identifying problems leads to finding solutions, and the more hands and eyes working on it together the faster the process of development evolves.
