Next Gen ADM: The future of application services.IBM
Rapid technology advances are driving higher expectations around speed, efficiency and resilience. Expectations for how technology should help meet business goals are rising. To meet increasing expectations around agility, time to value and cost optimization, Businesses are seeking new ways to manage apps. Born-digital companies are setting new standards for speed, efficiency and resilience. We will discuss how companies can optimize the core, unlock legacy and unleash digital to thrive in the new normal.
Understanding the timing, cost, deliverables, and future plans for an ECM or document capture implementation is critical. Many system integrators don't take the time to properly assess, plan, and deliver a solution--costing the customer valuable time, resources, and expense down the road.
Initial Consulting Engagements (ICE) from Zia Consulting allow you to immediately get started with your ECM or Capture project, without the risk of a large up-front commitment. Our deliverables provide you with a clear understanding of the requirements, time, and cost of the project–giving you full information to decide on next steps. Join 2012 and 2013 Alfresco and Ephesoft Partner of the Year, Zia Consulting, for this quick presentation to learn more about ICE. Discover how our proven method of discovery, technical assessment, and project road-mapping will mean success for your project.

An introduction into how solution architecture is a discipline that helps teams and organization understand technology challenges and problems before they happen. Understand why apparently free solutions may often become the most expensive. Learn too expect that having too much choice (and freedom) isn't always a good thing when building state of the art systems in the real world. Find out why integrating systems is a necessary evil that must be tamed, not avoided. And be prepared to ask questions - because defining the problem is often a lot harder than finding a solution.

SharePoint 2013 as a BPM & Workflow Management SystemAndreas Aschauer
SharePoint 2013 as a WFMS
Process Management Services are a crucial piece in any system supporting ECM capabilities. SharePoint 2013 introduced a new technical foundation for workflow management and the modeling of business processes as automated workflows.
In this session the audience will learn the benefits of the new Workflow Management System architecture as well as how to leverage it in real world scenarios. Attendees will see what can be achieved in SharePoint 2013 and Workflow Manager in an easy and controllable fashion. Most important the session will dive into what is not easily feasible Out-of-the-Box and will present a birds-eye view on the BPM ecosystem that has evolved around SharePoint 2010 and 2013.
The key take-away for attendees will be an understanding of how to map real-world process management scenarios onto SharePoint 2013 Workflow workloads and when it is reasonable in terms of project risk and cost of ownership for the SharePoint investment, to move to a third party SharePoint BPM product.
The session is intended for Architects and Decision Makers who already have concrete use cases/scenarios at hand and need to map them to SharePoint technology.

“Software is eating the world” said Netscape founder Marc Andreessen in his Wall Street Journal 2011 op-ed to describe how digital technology has transformed the world of business. We divide the disruption into two stages; efficient pipelines disrupting inefficient pipelines and platforms disrupting pipelines. Most Internet applications during the 1990s involved the creation of highly efficient pipelines—online systems for distributing goods and services that out-competed incumbent industries. Online pipelines tended to have very low marginal costs of distribution—sometimes as low as zero. This allowed them to target and serve large markets with much smaller investment. We are now in stage two where platforms disrupt pipelines. They bring news sources of supply to market, change value consumption by facilitating new forms of consumer behavior, change quality control through crowd sourced curation, and bring new market middlemen by aggregating fragmented markets.

Introducing Business Agility and Governance to Your Customer CommunicationsPrecisely
It’s challenging for organizations to quickly update communications to meet customer needs while still complying with regulatory requirements. It takes most organizations up to three months to make simple updates to customer communications. With Forbes research indicating that 90% of customers expect an omnichannel experience, and 88% expecting their interactions across channels to be consistent this challenge is amplified.
Join this on-demand webinar to learn:
• The impact of disparate data and communications systems on your bottom line
• How an integrated customer engagement platform can reduce compliance errors while simultaneously providing a better customer experience
• How you can reduce customer communication updates from 90+ days down to less than 1 day

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
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.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
