Author Sir Clive Woodward to Keynote at Innovation Enterprise’s Sports Performance & Tech Summit
Manchester, UK (PRWEB UK) 29 August 2014

He is a respected commentator for BBC Sport & Sky Sports’ rugby coverage, and writes as a member of The Daily Mail’s award winning sports team.

His philosophy is geared towards taking individuals from being merely talented to realising their full potential, based on the understanding that “Great Teams” are made of “Great Individuals”.
The Sports Performance & Tech Summit will focus on technologies that are augmenting the traditional approach to sports performance. We will show how novel methods for measuring familiar areas like fitness and health can create opportunities for sports professionals to excel in new areas of athletic achievement. Regimen’s built on practice and repetition, along with new technological methods, help teach good habits that continually push the limits of performance. “Allowing individuals to be more informed with greater insight and choices about their fitness is one of the primary goals of sports technology,” said William Tubbs, Summit Director. “Technology now makes it easier for individuals to track progress, reach specific goals and prevent injuries.”
The Sports Performance & Tech Summit is the perfect opportunity to share insight and best practices with leaders and experts from across the field in an interactive environment.

Dimensional Insight Customer Main Line Health Discussed Clinical Analytics at National Healthcare CMO/CMIO Summit
Burlington, MA (PRWEB) March 13, 2014
Dimensional Insight, a developer of business intelligence (BI) solutions, today announced that Harm Scherpbier, M.D., vice president & chief medical information officer of Main Line Health, a Dimensional Insight customer, presented a session titled, “Does CPOE Guide Clinicians to the Best Choices? Clinical Analytics for Insulin Regimen Tracking,” last week at the National Healthcare CMO/CMIO Summit. In the session, Dr. Scherpbier discussed how Main Line Health, a community health system serving suburban Philadelphia, uses The Diver Solution™ (Diver), Dimensional Insight’s BI platform, to strengthen its diabetes regimen tracking.
The National Healthcare CMO/CMIO Summit was an invitation-only event for senior-level medical executives and solution providers. It was held March 6-7 at Red Rock Resort & Spa in Las Vegas. The agenda included keynote presentations, case studies and interactive sessions, as well as one-on-one meetings.
In his presentation, Dr. Scherpbier discussed how Main Line Health implemented computerized physician order entry (CPOE) guidelines for inpatient insulin therapies. Physicians, nonetheless, were using CPOE to build suboptimal insulin therapy order sets. Using Diver, Main Line developed an endocrinology dashboard application to analyze insulin regimen ordering patterns and correlate the choice of insulin regimen with patients’ glucose outcomes.
Main Line uses the application to give direct, physician-specific feedback, as well as target education and training to hospital physicians. Insights are used to further refine CPOE guidance so that Main Line can improve the quality of care delivered.
“We are seeing rapid growth in the application of analytics to clinical data among our healthcare customers, as clinical data becomes more widely available electronically,” said George Dealy, Dimensional Insight’s vice president of healthcare applications development. “Providers are increasingly using healthcare analytics to monitor, analyze and drive practice changes in disease management that improve patient outcomes and quality of care.”

Netflix to Offer A/B Testing Case Study at the Big Data & Analytics for Retail Summit
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) June 03, 2013
Big data has become essential for retailers, helping them sell more goods by analyzing their customer buying patterns. Enormous amounts of raw data comes in to retailers on a daily basis and it is critical for them to be able to extract the key insights from this massive amount of data and develop actionable plans. Attendees at the Big Data & Analytics for Retail Summit will gain unique insight into the innovations that are driving success from analytics executives and data scientists working in retail, eCommerce and consumer goods. The summit is being held at The Westin River North in Chicago, June 20-21.
Netflix, a keynote presenter at the Summit, has over 37 million subscribers worldwide, with 29 million in the U.S. alone. Millions of data points are collected daily and Netflix’s sophisticated data collection and analytic systems can determine not only which movies are watched, but also details about that watcher; including if they watched the movie to the very end and how many times they paused it. Netflix is using this insight to offer better customer service and to create original content based on the viewing habits of its members. Its key to big data success lies in the collection and analysis of the data. At the Summit, Byran Gumm, Manager, Experimentation Platform & Science at Netflix and Juilette Aurisset, Senior Data Scientist at Netflix, will review the challenges they’ve had in conducting and analyzing A/B tests, offer ideas on speeding up the experimentation cycle,and will walk through a Netflix-specific case study.
“Retailers see Big Data as a key competitive advantage that, if implemented correctly, can move more goods off the shelves ,” said Dave Barton, Analytics Division Lead at Innovation Enterprise. “The challenge is in the implementation; to take Big Data and turn it into actionable results. This conference is a prime opportunity for retailers to learn the best practices in the field today.”
Other presenters and topics at the summit include:
Sarang Kirpekar, DVP, Information Analytics Operations at Sears Holdings who will discuss creating an analytics product to deliver deeper insight.
Manu Sareen, VP, Pricing & Analytics at RadioShack who will share how to deliver a more robust pricing model using analytics.
Chris Taylor, Executive Coordinator, Global Data Team at Whole Foods Market who will explore successfully turning information into insights, especially in a decentralized, intuitive and highly innovative retail culture.
Tony Flanery-Rye, Director, Global Analytics at Expedia who will explain how Expedia identifies customer value online.

Summit Racing Equipment and Smokey’s Dyno Put Big LS Power in a BMW E30
Tallmadge, OH (PRWEB) August 17, 2012
Putting an LS engine in a 3-series BMW is popular among road racers for the combination of inexpensive, reliable V8 power and exceptional handling dynamics. In fact, it’s popular enough that there are swap kits and components available.
“The E30 is one of the best chassis to come out of the BMW factory,” explained Jamy Lippencott, owner of Smokey’s Dyno. “The LS engine fits like it was made for the car, and it’s so easy to get ridiculous horsepower out of one. Plus, an all-aluminum LS1 or LS3 only weighs about 85 pounds more than the stock BMW four-cylinder, so the handling characteristics aren’t really affected.”
Known for its tuning prowess with high-end cars like Maseratis, Porsches, BMWs, and Corvettes, Smokey’s didn’t want to do something as ‘ordinary’ as an LS/BMW swap. The shop approached Summit Racing Equipment with a plan to build a real monster of a car—a 600-plus horsepower beastie that can terrorize the competition at the track, yet will happily take you to the store with the A/C on full blast.
Summit Racing and Trick Flow supplied the components for the engine. It is based on a GM Performance LSX 6.2L aluminum block filled with a Callies Compustar 4 inch stroke crank, Howard’s 6.125 inch billet rods, Wiseco pistons, and a Trick Flow TrackMax Stage 4 camshaft. Up top are a pair of Trick Flow GenX® 235 CNC-ported cylinder heads a F.A.S.T LSX intake, and F.A.S.T. fuel rails with 60 lb.-hr. Trick Flow fuel injectors. The fuel system is from Aeromotive. The engine is mated to a T-56 six-speed transmission.
The E30’s suspension has been totally revamped with components from a Z3 M roadster. The brakes are from a BMW M3. Covering those brakes are huge Billet Specialties Pro Touring wheels (18 x 11 front, 18 x 13 rear) on Toyo Proxis tires,
Adding to the coolness factor is the DTM Fiber Werkz body kit. Patterned after German Touring Car Series racers, Smokey’s E30 is one of only three cars in the U.S. to have one of these kits.
The E30 is currently in the final stages of completion (exhaust system fabrication, body kit fitment, body wrapping, etc.). It is scheduled to be displayed at the DTM Fiber Werkz booth at the 2012 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. Summit Racing will be running a series of build articles on its blog, OnAllCylinders.com, in the near future.
Smokey’s Dyno plans on running the car in road course competition in 2013 as well as attending East Coast Timing Association (ECTA) standing mile events and a possible stint on the Hot Rod Magazine Power Tour.
In-progress build images and detailed technical information is available for in-depth articles.
