Games built on Online Social Networks (OSNs) have become a phenomenon since 3rd party developer tools were exposed by OSNs such as Facebook. Even if the game is not built on the Facebook platform, developers tend to integrate Facebook to link the gaming community. Multiplayer games are not the only ones that require a community; gamers like to show off their ranks, discuss about their experiences and also will not mind getting few tips from the community with accomplishing certain tasks in a game. The community is important for both the gamer and developer, as it could be a source of feedback, research and popularity for the game he/she is developing.
Facebook is an online social networking service. Its name comes from a colloquialism for the directory given to students at some American universities.[5] Facebook was founded on February 4, 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg with his college roommates and fellow Harvard University students Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes.[6] The founders had initially limited the website's membership to Harvard students, but later expanded it to colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University. It gradually added support for students at various other universities before it opened to high-school students, and eventually to anyone aged 13 and over. Facebook now allows anyone who claims to be at least 13 years old to become a registered user of the website
African-American Millennials cemented their position as trendsetters in the media and technology space in 2016. But this cohort has been setting the tone for the conversations feeding social media and the web at large with an influence that vastly outweighs its user base for some time now.

PREDICTING POPULARITY OF KOREAN CONTENTS IN ARAB COUNTRIES USING A DATA MININ...csandit
Recently, many people in the Middle East and North Africa enjoy watching a variety of Korean
contents such as Korean dramas, films, broadcasting programs and listening to Korean Pops.
The Korean wave refers to the phenomenon of Korean entertainment and popular culture
rolling over the world with TV dramas, films and pop music. Also it is known as "Hallyu "
literally meaning 'flow from Korea' in Korean. This study examines the analysis of pattern on
Arab countries (Middle East and North Africa) Consumers' consumption of the Korean
Contents using social media, Facebook data. Then we focus on developing Predictive System
using a Data Mining Technique.
Great research starts with insightful questions. But what are the ‘right’ questions to ask, and how do I plan for the unforeseen? In this session we’ll shed light on approaches to making the most of social data. We’ll question the meaning of ‘influencers’ and tackle data segmentation. This is a session for those who are ready to level up their research but not sure where to begin.
Data was collected from groups of Generation Y employees of corporate institutions, freelancers, entrepreneurs, small business workers as well as students between the ages of 16-30. Participants in the research were asked to provide basic biographical data† and then answer a series of 15 questions which pertained to their beliefs and opinions about current and past experiences and habits. These were based around Political, Economic, Social and Technological topics.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
