Challenges in Maintaining a High Performance Search Engine Written in Java
Presented by Simon Willnauer | Apache Lucene - See conference video - http://www.lucidimagination.com/devzone/events/conferences/lucene-revolution-2012
During the last decade Apache Lucene became the de-facto standard in open source search technology. Thousands of applications from Twitter Scale Webservices to Computers playing Jeopardy rely on Lucene, a rock-solid, scaleable and fast information-retrieval library entirely written in Java. Maintaining and improving such a popular software library reveals tough challenges in testing, API design, data-structures, concurrency and optimizations. This talk presents the most demanding technical challenges the Lucene Development Team has solved in the past. It covers a number of areas of software development including concurrency & parallelism, testing infrastructure, data-structures, algorithms, API designs with respect to Garbage Collection, and Memory efficiency and efficient resource utilization. This talk doesn’t require any Apache Lucene or information-retrieval background in general. Knowledge about the Java programming language will certainly be helpful while the problems and techniques presented in this talk aren’t Java specific.

AI is Impacting HPC Everywhere
In this deck from the Perth HPC Conference, Rob Farber from TechEnablement presents: AI is Impacting HPC Everywhere.
"The convergence of AI and HPC has created a fertile venue that is ripe for imaginative researchers — versed in AI technology — to make a big impact in a variety of scientific fields. From new hardware to new computational approaches, the true impact of deep- and machine learning on HPC is, in a word, “everywhere”. Just as technology changes in the personal computer market brought about a revolution in the design and implementation of the systems and algorithms used in high performance computing (HPC), so are recent technology changes in machine learning bringing about an AI revolution in the HPC community. Expect new HPC analytic techniques including the use of GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) in physics-based modeling and simulation, as well as reduced precision math libraries such as NLAFET and HiCMA to revolutionize many fields of research. Other benefits of the convergence of AI and HPC include the physical instantiation of data flow architectures in FPGAs and ASICs, plus the development of powerful data analytic services."

The UX of Tomorrow: Designing for the Unknown by Jeff Feddersen
MIT Enterprise Forum of NYC hosted The UX of Tomorrow: Designing for the Unknown on June 4th, 2015 at Shutterstock featuring Beverly May, Ryan Gossen, Jay Vidyarthi, and Jeff Feddersen. This is Jeff's presentation from the event.
Trained in computer science and music, Jeff works with software and hardware to make computers do new and unusual things. He is currently part of a team developing a sculptural reflection of energy and resource flows in what is being heralded as the world`s greenest office building. His work for groups ranging from the Hayden Planetarium and the Connecticut Science Center to Sony and HBO has resulted in award-winning public interactive experiences.
Jeff teaches at NYU`s graduate Interactive Telecommunications Program, where he has a residency to develop video curricula supporting physical computing and energy. His novel musical instruments and kinetic sound sculptures have been performed on and exhibited internationally, and he is the co-inventor of an electronic wind instrument based on the Japanese shakuhachi (US patent #7723605).
The next ten years of technology will see many of Ray Kurzweil`s predictions come alive: Embedded, invisible, unwired electricity and internet-based interactions will drive every aspect of our lived environment. The physical and digital worlds are merging, powered by incredible changes in computing, universal connectivity as well as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning. This pending wave is certain to change every aspect of our human-computer interaction.
Major technological leaps present interesting design and UX challenges and require a wholesale shift in perspective by designing for the as-yet unknown. Screens, keyboards, and mouse dominated yesterday and today. Tomorrow, these systems will be initiated, controlled, and tracked through location and environment, semantic context, a wave of the arm, a blink of an eye, a directed gaze, a heartbeat, a crowd-driven trend, even a brainwave.
Whole new approaches and design systems need to be considered for what the next wave of products do, what they look and feel like, and how they can be more meaningful, useful, relevant, and intuitive.
This talk discussed the UX of tomorrow for the next wave of product design based on some of the very first products and services on the market that hint at the integrate

Microkernel Evolution
This presentation covers 3 Generations of Microkernels: Mach, L4, seL4/Fiasco.OC/NOVA.
In addition, the real use cases are included.
Barrelfish OS
The document proposes a new OS architecture called the multikernel that treats multicore systems as a network of independent cores that communicate via message passing instead of shared memory. This approach embraces the networked nature of modern multicore hardware and applies insights from distributed systems. The multikernel model is implemented in the Barrelfish OS and shown to provide comparable performance to conventional OS designs on current hardware while scaling better to support future heterogeneous multicore systems.
Analysis of Practicality and Performance Evaluation for Monolithic Kernel and...
The microkernel system (as opposite to monolithic systems) has been developed for years, with the hope that microkernels could solve the problems of other operating systems. However, the evolution of the microkernel systems did not go as many people expected. Because of faultinesses of design in system structure, the performance of the first generation of microkernel operating systems was disappointing. The overhead of the system was too high to bear for users. However, the second-generation microkernel system uses an improved design architecture that could substantially reduce the overhead in the previous microkernel systems. This project evaluates the system performance of the MINIX3.1.2a with the performance of Linux by using Unixbench system evaluating tool. In this way, it could testify whether the microkernel systems could be more flexible, portable and secure than monolithic operating systems. Unixbench could give sufficient statistics on different capacities of MINIX3 and Linux, such as system call overhead, pipe throughput, arithmetic test and so on. The result illustrates MINIX3 has better performance on Shell Scripts running and Arithmetic test and Linux has better performance on other aspects such as system call overhead, process creation and so on. Furthermore, we provide a more detailed analyze on the microkernel Minix 3 system and propose a method that we could improve the performance of the MINIX3 system.
Os Ds Arch
There are three main approaches to operating system architecture for distributed systems: monolithic kernels, layered architectures, and microkernels. Microkernels provide only basic mechanisms like threads and inter-process communication, with other services run as user-level servers. This separates mechanisms from policies and allows services to be dynamically loaded as needed. Popular microkernel systems include Mach and QNX, which have advantages like extensibility and modularity but disadvantages in efficiency compared to monolithic kernels, which perform all functions in the kernel for better application performance but are difficult to extend. Many modern systems use hybrid approaches.
IGARSS11_BenchmarkImagerySlides_FINAL.pdf
This document discusses the design of benchmark imagery for validating facility annotation algorithms. It notes that previous benchmarks are inadequate and that developing benchmarks requires considering many intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The authors propose using real imagery annotated by experts, composite imagery blending models into real scenes, and synthetic imagery. Creating these benchmarks comes with costs for data acquisition, modeling, rendering, and expert annotation. Future work includes automated synthetic facility generation and developing representations for encoding facility knowledge.

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.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
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.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
