A community is defined as a place where people work, play and live. There are three main types of communities: urban, suburban, and rural. An urban community is a large city with many people and large buildings. A rural community has houses far apart with fewer people and may include farms and forests. A suburban community is located near a large city with houses close together where you can find parks and malls. All communities provide places for people to live, work and play, though the types of housing, jobs and recreational activities may differ between urban, suburban and rural areas.
This document discusses the differences between daytime and nighttime. During daytime, the sun is up and you can see many things like plants, animals, and clouds. Sometimes you may also see a rainbow. At nighttime, the sun has set and it is dark out. The moon and stars light up the sky. Some common daytime activities mentioned include going to school, playing basketball, planting rice, going fishing, cleaning the yard, and flying a kite. Nighttime activities include resting, sleeping, doing assignments, and watching television.
Matter exists in three main states: solids, liquids, and gases. Solids maintain a fixed shape unless broken, while liquids flow freely and take the shape of their container. Gases have no fixed shape and expand to fill any container, becoming invisible but detectable through their effects like wind.
Plants provide many useful things for humans such as food, wood for building, and materials like cotton and jute for making clothes, sacks and ropes. Certain plants also have medicinal properties and can help cure diseases. Some economically important plant products are coffee, sugar, tea, and spices like cumin, pepper and clove.

Rural areas are separately settled places away from large cities characterized by lower population density and engagement in primary industries like agriculture. A rural community has a sense of unity and religion plays an important role in village life. Rural lifestyles differ from urban ones in having limited services, public transport, and utilities. Rural development aims to improve the economic and social conditions of rural poor through collective efforts and generation of employment in farm, storage, and other economic activities while also developing infrastructure, health, education, and living conditions. It faces various challenges including traditional mindsets, lack of education, inadequate infrastructure, and economic and leadership problems. Rural development is important for India to develop rural areas holistically and empower communities.
Rural and urban communities differ in their characteristics. Rural communities typically have occupations related to agriculture, lower population densities, strong familial and community ties, and more traditional cultural values. Urban communities are centered around non-agricultural industries and services, have higher population densities, more social diversity and anonymity between residents, and cultures that value innovation and individualism more. As societies develop, rural-to-urban migration increases urban population and influences traditional rural social structures, lifestyles, and values.
A community is a social group that shares common characteristics like norms, religion, values, or identity. There are three main types of communities: urban, suburban, and rural. Urban communities are found in cities and are characterized by tall buildings and skyscrapers with many people living in a small area with little open space. Suburban communities are located near but not in cities, with fewer people living in houses or small apartment buildings with yards and some natural areas. Rural communities have few people and buildings spread over large distances with lots of open space and natural areas.
A community is a group of people living in a close area and usually under common rules. There are three main types of communities: rural, urban, and suburban. A rural community is mostly farmland with fewer buildings and people spread over large distances, providing lots of open space but requiring vehicles to travel. An urban community is a city with many people living close together and access to public transportation but less open space. A suburban community is near a city with more parks and fields than cities, but not as busy as rural areas.
Public transportation acrchitecture buitems adnan presntationAdnanSwat1
This document discusses various modes of public transportation. It describes buses, trains, light rail/trams, ferries, paratransit services, carpooling/vanpooling, taxis, and horse-drawn carts. For each mode, it provides details on what they are, how they operate, and examples of common types. The document is intended to cover the different options available for public transportation.
Land transport refers to the movement of people and goods via roads, rails, ropes or pipelines. It has several benefits such as facilitating transportation of raw materials and finished goods, enabling consumers access to goods from distant places, supporting large-scale and low-cost production, providing mobility for workers, and offering employment. Common modes of land transport include animal-driven vehicles, motorcycles, jeepneys, automobiles, trucks, and buses. Car rentals provide a flexible option for transportation when traveling.
The document argues that the skateboard is a viable form of transportation that has advantages over bicycles for short trips. It notes that skateboards can travel at speeds greater than walking, can be used on most surfaces that support wheels, and are portable enough to use for multi-modal trips involving cars or public transportation. While bicycles are better for longer single-vehicle trips, skateboards are presented as a good option for short trips within cities and for connecting to other forms of transportation more easily than bicycles. The document suggests skateboards could increase the feasibility of public transit by providing convenient transportation to and from transit stops.
1) Streets aim to facilitate public interaction and represent a series of connected places for staying in and moving through, unlike roads which aim solely for transportation between places.
2) The form of streets can be analyzed based on patterns, lengths, and the ratio between street width and building heights, with different designs suited to traffic needs, human scales, and climates.
3) Unity in street design is important to create a coherent space, which can be achieved through common materials, architectural elements like rooflines, and tailored regulations for each area.
Cars in downtown areas can cause congestion, which has long been an issue. While some trips require cars, downtown areas function best with restrictions on general car access and an emphasis on pedestrian access and public transportation. Successful downtown areas prohibit most private car access and provide parking and transportation options like pedestrian zones, public transit, and park-and-ride lots to attract visitors and support businesses. Charging appropriate rates for any parking helps manage demand and offsets the real costs of accommodating cars downtown.
This document discusses different types of urban spaces including streets, squares, plazas, and open spaces. It describes streets as dynamic spaces with a sense of movement, while squares are described as static spaces with less sense of movement. Squares are defined as planned open areas that are suitable for gatherings and events. The document also discusses the role of buildings, public spaces, streets, and landscape in defining the character and functionality of urban areas.
This document discusses urban settlements and urbanization. It begins by defining urbanization as the growth of towns and cities leading to an increasing percentage of the population living in urban areas. It then provides details on factors that influence urbanization, including the Industrial Revolution, population growth, and migration from rural to urban areas. Some of the fastest growing cities mentioned are located in South and Southeast Asia. The document also covers counter-urbanization, megacities, and factors that influence the size, growth and functions of urban settlements such as their role as ports, administrative centers, or locations along transport routes.
The document discusses various aspects of urban road planning and design. It covers the objectives of urban roads in facilitating communication, providing air and light, and accommodating utilities. It also discusses different road typologies like expressways, arterial roads, and local roads. Key considerations for road planning discussed include destination, importance, traffic, and use. The document also outlines various street patterns and factors to be considered in road design like gradients, intersections, and aesthetics. It emphasizes the importance of properly planning roads for efficient urban infrastructure and traffic management.
The New Urbanism: Design Principles for Vibrant CommunitiesVierbicher
Much of the development that has occurred in Wisconsin and around the nation over the past 60 years has created a feeling of sameness from community to community. Our development pattern has separated uses from one another and catered to cars at the expense of pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit. The New Urbanism promotes the creation and restoration of diverse, walkable, compact, vibrant mixed-use communities built with integrated housing, employment, shops, and schools. It is a revival of the lost art of "placemaking" to raise our quality of life and standard of living by creating neighborhoods, not just subdivisions, and building main streets, not just shopping malls.
Traffic congestion occurs in cities due to the separation of work and residential areas, movement between parts of the city to obtain goods and services, and inadequate transportation infrastructure and services.
Specifically, people live in one part of the city but work in another, leading to commuting during peak hours. They also travel within the city to access specialized goods and services only available in certain locations. Meanwhile, transportation systems have small fleets of buses and trains unable to accommodate all commuters, resulting in overcrowding and delays. This encourages private vehicle ownership and further congestion.
The document then instructs students to discuss in groups solutions to these three causes of congestion - separation of work and housing, internal city movement
India has a population of over 1.2 billion people, making it the largest democracy in the world. It also has a vast area of 3.29 million square kilometers. Given the large population and area, there is a significant need to increase public transportation options and services to connect people. Several bus companies provide rural transportation services in India, with routes connecting villages to villages and villages to nearby cities on a regular schedule. These services aim to provide affordable and comfortable transportation for students, farmers, workers and families traveling to urban areas.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

"Choosing proper type of scaling", Olena SyrotaFwdays
Imagine an IoT processing system that is already quite mature and production-ready and for which client coverage is growing and scaling and performance aspects are life and death questions. The system has Redis, MongoDB, and stream processing based on ksqldb. In this talk, firstly, we will analyze scaling approaches and then select the proper ones for our system.
"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...Fwdays
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.
