VIA’s Ashley DaSilva, Team Leader, Product Development, was invited to lead a workshop on unit testing for McGill’s Computer Science Graduate Society. Ashley discussed the critical importance of software testing, why developers should embrace unit testing, and when and how to use mocking.
This center is part of a partnership between the Danish Ministry of Higher Education and Science and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Boston now joins Silicon Valley, Shanghai, Tel Aviv, Munich, New Delhi/Bangalore, Sao Paolo, and Seoul on the list of cities home to Danish Innovation Centers.
2018 was a blockbuster year for VIA, from product development to team growth, from press features to awards, and so much more. We are proud to share some of our highlights with you here, and we look forward to the year ahead!
The post recaps VIA’s presentation at Greentech Media’s Blockchain in Energy event, which took place in San Francisco this past September.
During his presentation, titled “AI for forecasting and resiliency in energy”, Colin discussed the issues that limit AI learning to improve grid resiliency. His presentation focused on how VIA’s application, Trusted Analytics Chain (TAC), addresses these four common AI training data issues.
The German-based IT magazine featured VIA’s Trusted Analytics Chain in an article about how startups across the world are using AI and blockchain together.
VIA will participate in the Cleantech program for six to eight months. Through this program, Accelerace will assist in establishing a corporate presence in Denmark, introductions to leading European utilities (such as Enel), and mentorship from experienced Danish entrepreneurs, cleantech executives, and industry experts.
The article discusses how AI and blockchain, while both disruptive technologies in their own right, can work better together than separately in some cases. CEO Colin Gounden was proud to share VIA’s perspective on how a combination of these technologies could transform the energy industry.
The award recognizes VIA’s blockchain-based application, Trusted Analytics Chain (TAC). VIA developed the application with its energy clients in mind: TAC establishes secure access to highly sensitive data, which is one of the biggest challenges to widespread AI implementation across the energy industry.
Van Halen’s music defined a genre (and a generation), but their impact reaches much further than the music world. In fact, you could argue Van Halen’s reach extends even into the blockchain boom we’re seeing today. How so? Well, Van Halen sort of invented the smart contract.
Colin’s session, titled “Realizing the Value of Utility Data Through Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence,” highlighted the ways blockchain, and more specifically VIA’s Trusted Analytics Chain (TAC), can provide utilities with more rigorous AI solutions and streamline compliance filings with regulatory agencies.
VIA is thrilled to announce that it has joined the NVIDIA Inception program, which is designed to nurture startups revolutionizing industries with advancements in AI and data sciences. This will support VIA’s AI solution and further develop its blockchain application through the use of GPUs.
VIA CEO, Colin Gounden, recently joined the FutureTech podcast for a conversation about how VIA uses artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain solutions to support the energy industry’s $100 billion a year efforts to maintain, upgrade, and improve energy infrastructure.
VIA has signed an agreement with ReconCraft to provide one of the first NIST-compliant predictive maintenance solutions for military equipment using its AI and blockchain technologies.
John is focused on implementing best practices for software development at VIA. He co-invented VIA’s core platform and currently develops, integrates, and quality assurance tests the platform for VIA’s applications.
Before VIA, John was a freelance consultant at the Numerical Algorithms Group (NAG), where he focused on updating their Python Library. Prior to this position, he was a technical sales support engineer at NAG in Oxford, where he developed technical marketing material and provided pre-sales assistance. John was awarded the best thesis in gravitation physics in 2016 by the Institute of Physics (IOP). His research focused on developing new numerical methods that capture the physical behavior of fluid interfaces permeated by high magnetic fields while taking into account relativistic effects.
John earned his master’s degree in physics and his Ph.D. in applied mathematics from the University of Southampton.
