Presentation from Modelling World 2015 in London (June 4, 2015).
Big data is a game changer for the transportation industry - but the data need to be tamed.
Things happening in, around, and to freight transportationPer Olof Arnäs
There are a lot of things happening OUTSIDE the freight industry. Some of these are global trends. There are also a lot of things, like digitalisation, happening TO the transport industry. And there are of course also things happening IN the transport industry (like automation, drones, blockchains etc,).
E commerce and freight transport - Chasing the last mile, one byte at a timePer Olof Arnäs
The freight transport industry is facing large challenges when it comes to e-commerce. This rapidly growing sector has high demands on service and performance from the freight system - demands that are seldom met with satisfaction.
Digitization and digitalization are two forces of nature that the transport industry needs to harness and exploit in order to meet these demands.
REACH - Accesshantering i realtid för ökad transporteffektivitetPer Olof Arnäs
Presentation av forskningsprojektet REACH.
Ambitionen med REACH är att, genom digital realtidsinteraktion, möjliggöra individualiserade nyttor för enskilda transporter beroende på situationsspecifik data.
Vi vill inom projektet utveckla kunskap som möjliggör avancerat samarbete i realtid mellan infrastruktur/facilitet och fordon/farkost.
Meeting the future - Big data in freight transportPer Olof Arnäs
From a talk at the conference SJÖLOG 2015 showing how Big data can be applied in freight transport. The freight industry has a large potential for improvement here.
Freight transportation in the future - Some indicationsPer Olof Arnäs
This presentation highlights some of the notable trends and developments that are affecting transportation (freight) and logistics. The areas covered are digitalization, automation, "new" transport modes, sharing economy, real-time data driven decision making, block chain technology and servitization. Any and/or all of these may have profound impact on freight transport.

Skrivstuga.se - Writing for the web (workshop)Per Olof Arnäs
This lecture is a part of a workshop where researchers learn the basics of blogging. Skrivstuga.se is a sandbox site where the course participants write and interact in a closed environment (that also contains all the course material).
Do you work at a university? Do you want to tell the world what you are passionate about?
Of course you do.
Read more on http://skrivstuga.se on how you and your colleagues also can learn this.
Testimonials from participants:
"Lots of good information and fun to try. I had not thought of using social media like that in my research."
"Informing and inspiring. Very good with the hands-on exercise."
"The topic was very well presented and explained and I learned a lot about blogging, which I knew very little about prior to the lecture. The assignment was also very well organized, with an excellent website"
"Very interesting, useful and inspirational. I really liked the seminar and workshop"
"Even better and even more inspiring. And important, this should probably be more emphasized generally at the department. It is important for it to be seen, especially since our research is generally quite applied and graspable for the public."
"I thought this was really fun. It was interactive and it’s cool to see the blog posts rolling in and to read what others are writing and thinking about. This one I would do again to practice blog writing anytime!"
"Very interesting and fun."

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.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
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.
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!
