The black box of orthodontic research is now in its second edition. This book is considered as a reference for orthodontic professionals who look for validation
and optimization of their basic knowledge, experience and updated research concerning
the orthodontic field.
The continuing development in orthodontic materials and mechanics led researchers
from different countries to employ their efforts and capabilities to investigate any relation
between these and their use in orthodontic treatment. Running multiple studies scenarios
for different populations, needs to be organized and ranked according to article type and
methodology incorporated to simplify the process of referencing and validating each
orthodontic procedure used.
For this, it was my honorable opportunity to give a hand in this issue. For most orthodontic
subjects encountered daily in practice, the most leading results, statements and conclusions
of concern mentioned in literature will be documented in order of publishing time.
Considering theses, beside focusing on the mentioned reference, will give orthodontists
the whole picture of the stroy.
It should be stated here that more focus on the leading orthodontic journals will be
noticed. Any valuable notes for the purpose of improving the way the book is presented
for audience will be of our great appreciation.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
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.

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.

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.

4. This specification provides a classification and specifies requirements and test methods for
dental casting alloys. This specification is a modified adoption of ISO 1562:1993, Dental casting gold
alloys; and ISO 8891:1998, Dental casting alloys with noble metal content of 25 percent up to but not
including 75 percent.
ANSI/ADA Specification No. 6—Dental Mercury: 1985 (Reaffirmed 1995)
This Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for mercury suitable for the
preparation of dental amalgam, and the requirements for packing and marking. This revision is
essentially identical to ISO 1560:1985, Dental Mercury.
ANSI/ADA Specification No. 11—Agar Impression Materials: 1997
This specification enumerates requirements for essential physical properties and other
characteristics of impression material having reversible agar hydrocolloid as a gel forming ingredient,
along with tests specified for determining compliance with those requirements. It also specifies
requirements with respect to the manufacturer's instructions, and the essentials for packaging, labeling,
and marking. This specification is a modified adoption of ISO 1564:1995, Dental Aqueous Impression
Material—Agar.
ANSI/ADA Specification No. 12—Denture Base Polymers: 2002
This specification classifies denture base polymers and copolymers and specifies their
requirements. It also specifies the test methods to be used in determining compliance with these
requirements. It further specifies requirements with respect to packaging and making the products and to
the instructions to be supplied for use of these materials. This revision is an adoption of the ISO
1567:1999, Dentistry-Denture Base Polymers.
ANSI/ADA Specification No. 13—Denture Cold-Curing Repair Resins:
1981 (Reaffirmed 1999)
This specification is for pink and clear denture repair resins of powdered-liquid type which are
used primarily for the repair of acrylic resin denture bases. It is restricted for materials which contain
monomers and comonomers, usually of the acrylic type of mixtures thereof, which are capable of auto-
initiated polymerization and which bond to denture base polymers of composition outlined in the
ANSI/ADA Specification No. 12 for Denture Base Polymers.
ANSI/ADA Specification No. 14—Dental Base Metal Casting Alloys:
1982 (Reaffirmed 1998)
This specification covers dental base metal casting alloys used in the fabrication of removable
dental prostheses.
ANSI/ADA Specification No. 15—Synthetic Polymer Teeth: 2000
This specification specifies a classification, requirements and test methods for teeth that are
composed of synthetic polymers such as polymethyl methacrylate and its copolymers, and that are
manufactured for use in prostheses used in dentistry. This revision is an adoption of ISO 3336:1993 for
Dentistry—Synthetic Polymer Teeth with minor editorial changes.
5. ANSI/ADA Specification No. 16—Dental Impression Paste - Zinc Oxide-Eugenol Type: 1961
(Reaffirmed 1999)
