Mobile App Best Practices
Best practices for building your mobile app. Is it right for you? By Kate Washut, Partner, Far Reach for the Greater Cedar Valley Alliance's Business Education Series on 10/8/13. http://www.farreachinc.com
Mobile development frameworks
We live in interesting times. While mobile adoption is skyrocketing, most small organizations are precluded from entering the mobile market by the significant time, money and skill investment required to make even the simplest app. Mobile development toolkits can help, but the small guys are still left behind. WaveMobile is a development framework that creates diverse and customized mobile apps without writing a single line of code.
How to grow your mobile audience
This is a recent presentation i did for 'SF Mobile Entrepreneurs' meetup.
The presentation is slightly modified with more text to make it easier to understand on SlideShare.
Mobile Apps for Businesses
Presentation I put together for existing business owners who are wondering about if and how a Mobile App might help their business.
Sourcebooks Apps 101 - BEA 2012
This document provides an overview of the app development process. It discusses researching the product idea, understanding the competition, conducting focus groups, selecting a developer, financial planning, creating wireframes, and the development process. Key steps include defining the app's purpose, functionality, target users, goals, researching competitors, gathering user feedback, choosing a developer, creating a sales forecast and profit/loss statement, designing wireframes, and iterating based on testing. The overall process focuses on thorough planning, market research, and user-centered design to build a successful app.
Designing For A Multi-platform Digital Product
The document discusses considerations for designing a digital product that is consistent across multiple platforms including iPhone, Android, tablet and web. It recommends creating branding guidelines that specify elements like logo, colors, fonts and screenshots. It also recommends creating user interface style guides for each platform to maintain consistency while adhering to platform norms. The key aspects are using platform-specific elements, not porting app designs between platforms, avoiding unfamiliar interactions, testing new paradigms and providing guidelines for developers and designers.

1) 1,000 Rem x 70 kg person = 70,000 Rem
1 Rem = 100 rads
So 70,000 Rem = 7,000,000 rads
1 rad = 100 ergs of energy absorbed per gram of tissue
Person's mass is 70,000 g
So energy absorbed = 7,000,000 rads x 100 ergs/rad x 70,000 g = 4.9 x 10^13 ergs
2) Energy to raise 1 g of water by 1°C is 41,600,000 ergs
Person absorbed 4.9 x 10^13 ergs
Mass of person is 70,000 g (mostly water)
So temperature change = (4.9 x
Vantage point
Mise-en-scene refers to everything that appears within the frame of a scene, including actors, lighting, décor, props, and costumes. These elements help set the tone and genre of the film. For example, horror films typically use low key lighting for tense scenes, while uplifting scenes often employ high key lighting. After watching the opening titles of "Vantage Point," the observer noted the formal costumes and military uniforms suggested a government or important setting. The dim lighting conveyed a miserable, negative tone and foreshadowed something bad would happen. Street decorations with anti-USA posters further clued the audience into the film's impending events.
Evaluation question 2
This document discusses how the media product represents social groups. It uses close-up shots of a male artist on the cover to attract both male and female teenage audiences. Medium close-ups of artists are used throughout to highlight their importance. Styling the artist on the cover and in photos in formal clothes appeals to teenagers' aspirations of success. Models and artists featured are the same age as the target audience to promote relatability and relationship building between readers and the people in the magazine. The lighting and posing are meant to convey a sense of reflection and confidence to inspire youth.
Codes and conventions of a typical music magazine
This document outlines several common design elements and conventions seen on magazine covers and interior pages. Magazine covers typically feature a medium close-up image, masthead, cover lines, barcode, and puff text. Interior pages usually contain a larger headline, byline, images, quotes, drop caps and facts. The contents page summarizes the magazine's stories through a list of features and multiple images providing a sneak peek of what's inside.
Codes and conventions of a music magazine
This document discusses the codes and conventions used in a music magazine, including:
- The front cover uses varying text sizes and colors to draw attention to key information, and central images relate to main articles.
- Contents pages list articles in categories with minimal text and images to guide readers.
- Double page spreads break up text with large cut-out images and a timeline of smaller photos, and use font size, color, and lines to structure the article.
- Photographs are prominently featured and text is kept brief and scannable using columns and varying font sizes and colors.
Evaluation question 6
The document discusses the various technologies used to create a music magazine. These included a Canon 600D camera to take photos, an iPhone 6 Plus for additional photos and communication, Adobe Photoshop to edit photos and design pages, Internet Explorer/Safari for research, and lighting equipment. The student learned how to properly use these technologies through hands-on experience and online tutorials. Mastering these technologies was essential for producing high-quality photos, magazine pages, and an overall professional final product.
Evaluation question 4&5
The target audience for the magazine is males and females aged 16 to mid-20s. The author used a focus group on Facebook to get feedback on design elements and asked for opinions. Both genders were targeted by using neutral colors and avoiding stereotypical gendered content. The magazine was also priced affordably at £1.50 to be accessible to many people while still providing rich content. It features up-to-date music, images, artists and news relevant to the target demographic without focusing on a niche audience. Common magazine conventions like bold text, imagery and layout were used to attract this audience.
3000 thank-you-clipart
This very short document consists of the phrase "THANK YOU" repeated three times. It expresses gratitude, though no specific reason for thanks or recipient is mentioned. The repetition emphasizes the sentiment of appreciation being conveyed.
Opening titles
The document discusses and analyzes the opening title sequences of several films, including 21 Jump Street, Zombieland, and The Conjuring. It notes that 21 Jump Street and Zombieland use explosive, dynamic titles to grab audience attention, while The Conjuring uses dark, formal titles fitting for a horror genre but risks losing interest with its lengthy, repetitive sequence. On average, film openings have around 25 titles, but varying the titles as in 21 Jump Street and Zombieland better maintains audience engagement.
Evaluation question 1
This document discusses how a new music magazine product uses and develops conventions of real music magazines. It analyzes several common elements of music magazines like the masthead, cover lines, tagline, features, images and how they are adapted or changed in the new magazine. For example, the masthead is placed prominently at the front to gain visibility as a new magazine. The document also discusses how elements like the main image, pull quotes and page numbering meet audience needs and create engagement to satisfy their information and entertainment needs.
Evaluation Question 7
The document summarizes the improvements the author made from their preliminary task to their final production. For the final production, the author used a variety of images in different styles and sizes for the front cover. They learned to use lighting equipment and camera settings to create more contrast in images. The author also improved their use of fonts and text sizing. Additional improvements included increased complexity in the design by using multiple layers, and conducting research to follow magazine layout conventions. The author was able to apply the skills learned to create a more professional looking double page spread.
Risk assessment form
This risk assessment form summarizes the potential risks associated with a student film production shooting at two locations over one day. It identifies four hazards with a risk factor of 3: cables/equipment, noise from a tattoo gun, electricity/gas from equipment, and water facilities. For each hazard, it lists those exposed as crew, describes the risk, outlines actions to address the risk such as taping cables and restricting eating/drinking, and assigns responsibility to the director. The director, producer and lecturer sign off on the assessment.
Early republic part i
This document provides a timeline of key events from the Early Republic period in the United States, beginning with the establishment of the new Constitution to replace the Articles of Confederation. It discusses several early presidents including Washington, the Whiskey Rebellion, the rise of political parties, and challenges faced by John Adams including the XYZ Affair and passage of the Alien and Sedition Acts. The timeline touches on major domestic and foreign policy issues of the era.
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).

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.

Containers & AI - Beauty and the Beast!?!
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Discover the Unseen: Tailored Recommendation of Unwatched Content
The session shares how JioCinema approaches ""watch discounting."" This capability ensures that if a user watched a certain amount of a show/movie, the platform no longer recommends that particular content to the user. Flawless operation of this feature promotes the discover of new content, improving the overall user experience.
JioCinema is an Indian over-the-top media streaming service owned by Viacom18.
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.
"Choosing proper type of scaling", Olena Syrota
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.
Apps Break Data
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?
