The document discusses how trade show exhibitors can make their booths more fascinating to attract and engage attendees. It suggests appealing to human nature through discovery and emotional experiences. Exhibitors should listen to their community to understand what fascinates them and design experiences accordingly. Combining demonstrations, events, social media, and education in new hybrid formats can mix things up and inspire loyalty. Fascination demands attention and leads to trust, which benefits the exhibitor's bottom line. The goal is to continually discover new ways of engaging audiences rather than relying on the same old show.
Our goal with this project was to create a warm caring feeling through this hospice website. There are many misconceptions about hospice and we want our client to be able to use it as a platform to help people understand it on a deeper level.
The document discusses how to use public relations (PR) strategies to drive inbound marketing efforts. It recommends generating story ideas that appeal to audiences and integrating those stories across marketing channels for efficiency and brand consistency. Specifically, the document suggests identifying the issues audiences care about and where the company has expertise, focusing PR efforts on that intersection. This will help attract online audiences consistently through PR-driven campaigns that make the most of relevant content ideas.

Branding - Creating a personality for your product!Bettina Grr
What is branding and why is it so important?
During the presentation you will find out how to create a personality for your product, service or company. A brand is the promise you make to your users. Follow these five groundrules to uncover or create your brand:
1. Your brand sets you apart.
2. Your brand is ingrained in all your company.
3. Your brand is who you are.
4. Your brand is the connection to your audience.
5. Your brand gives you loyalty.
The document discusses how social selling and digital marketing is evolving as customers now have more information at their fingertips. It notes that 57% of the buying process is now done before a sales consultant is engaged. It then discusses how social selling can help with referrals, prospecting, research, and thought leadership by building trust and credibility online. The document proposes opportunities for the company Eposode in social media marketing by leveraging content on profiles, blogs, and groups. It outlines delivering evaluations of social media profiles, content creation guides, and ongoing video analysis to help with social media strategy.

The document encourages attendees to think about how these drivers can be seen in action and provides information on an upcoming course and book on moving sales conversations forward.
This document discusses how to build a strong narrative for an organization. It defines what a narrative is and explains that great brands build narratives to explain themselves, reach out to others, and establish a system of beliefs. The document outlines a narrative hierarchy and provides exercises to assess a competitor's narrative strengths and weaknesses and then do the same assessment for one's own organization. It discusses how to develop the key components of a narrative including the "why", "how", "offer", and "proof". The goal is to develop a narrative that is aspirational, emotionally resonant, clearly about the organization, and answers prospects' questions to engage them further.
The document outlines an agenda for a workshop on messaging and storytelling. It includes exercises to improve messaging skills, giving feedback on creative work, and a recap of the messaging process. The objectives are to improve messaging for a product called CS5, build a better process for applying messaging skills going forward, foster teamwork, and provide guidance or instruction.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

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.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
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).
