The Blue Brain Project aims to recreate the human brain through detailed computer simulation. It involves scanning brain tissue to collect data on neuron types and properties, which are then used to build biologically realistic models of neurons and networks. These simulations are run on IBM's Blue Gene supercomputer. The goal is to gain a complete understanding of the brain and enable faster treatment development for brain diseases. One day, it may be possible to upload a person's connectome data into a virtual brain to preserve their intelligence even after death.

The Blue Brain Project is an attempt to reverse engineer the human brain and recreate it at the cellular level inside a computer simulation. The project was founded in May 2005 by Henry Markram at the EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland. Goals of the project are to gain a complete understanding of the brain and to enable better and faster development of brain disease treatments.
With the advancement in technology, human, the ultimate source of information and discovery should
also be preserved. In other words, human is does not live for thousands of years but the information in his mind
could be saved and used for several thousands of years. The technology helpful in this activity is Blue Brain.
The aim of Blue Brain is to establish simulation neuroscience as a complementary approach alongside experimental, theoretical and clinical neuroscience to understanding the brain, by building the world’s first biologically detailed digital reconstructions and simulations of the mouse brain.
The supercomputer-based simulations and reconstructions built by Blue Brain offer a radically new approach for understanding the multi-level structure and function of the brain.
This presentation is about the Blue Brain project of IBM. Blue brain is a simple chip that can be installed into the human brain for which the short term memory and volatile memory at the old age can be avoided. Virtual brain is an artificial brain, which does not actually the natural brain, but can act as the brain. Intelligence ,Knowledge and skill of a person can be made eternal. The complete information about the blue brain project is present in the presentation.

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).

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!

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.

3. HISTORY
The Blue Brain Project is an attempt to reverse engineer the human
brain and recreate it at the cellular level inside a computer simulation.
The project was founded in May 2005 by Henry Markram at
the EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland. Goals of the project are to gain a
complete understanding of the brain and to enable better and faster
development of brain disease treatments.
The research involves studying slices of living brain tissue using
microscopes and patch clampelectrodes. Data is collected about all
the many different neuron types. This data is used to build
biologically realistic models of neurons and networks of neurons in
the cerebral cortex. The simulations are carried out on a Blue
Gene supercomputer built by IBM. Hence the name "Blue Brain". The
simulation software is based around Michael Hines's NEURON,
together with other custom-built components.
4. WHAT IS IT?
HUMAN BRAIN, the most valuable creation of God. The man is called
intelligent because of the brain. But we loss the knowledge of a brain
when the body is destroyed after the death .
“BLUE BRAIN”- The name of the world’s first virtual brain. That means a
machine that can function as human brain.
Is it really possible to create a human brain?
5. WHAT IS BLUE BRAIN?
The IBM is now developing a virtual brain known as the BLUE BRAIN.
It would be the worlds first virtual brain.
Within 30 years, we will be able to scan ourselves into the computers
So, even after the death of a person we will not loose the knowledge,
intelligence, personalities, feelings and memories of that man that can be
used for the development of the human society.
6. WHAT IS VIRTUAL BRAIN?
A machine that can function as brain
It can take decision.
It can think.
It can response.
It can keep things in memory.
It also has feelings and emotions.
7. WHY WE NEED VIRTUAL BRAIN
To upload contents of the natural brain into it
To keep the intelligence , knowledge and skill of any person for ever
.
To remember things without any effort .
8. FUNCTIONING OF BRAIN
Sensory Input :-
Receiving input such as sound
,image, etc through sensory cell .
. Interpretation
Interpretation of the received input
by the brain by defining states of
neurons in the brain.
Motor Output.
Receiving of electric responses
from the brain to perform any
action .
9. NATURAL BRAIN VS BLUE
BRAIN
INPUT
Through the natural
neurons
INTERPRETATION
By different states of the
neurons in the brain.
INPUT
Through the silicon chip or
artificial sensory cells
INTERPRETATION
By a set of bits in the set of
register
10. DIFFERENCE
OUTPUT
Through the natural cells.
PROCESSING
Through arithmetic and
logical calculations
MEMORY
Through permanent states of
neurons
OUTPUT
Through the silicon chip.
PROCESSING
Through arithmetic and
logical calculation and
artificial intelligence
MEMORY
Through Secondary memory
12. UPLOADING
The uploading is possible by the
use of small robots known as the
NANOBOTS.
These robots are small enough to
travel through out our circulatory
system.
Traveling into the spine and brain,
they will be able to monitor the
activity and structure of our central
nervous system.
They will be able to provide an
interface with computer while we
still reside in our biological form.
13. UPLOADING
Nanobots could also carefully scan the
structure of our brain, providing a complete
readout of the connection.
This information, when entered into a
computer, could then continue to function as
us.
Thus the data stored in the entire brain will
be uploaded into the computer.
14. BLUE GENE/P TECHNICAL
SPECIFICATIONS:
>4,096 quad-core nodes (16,384 cores
in total)
>Each core is a PowerPC 450, 850 MHz
Total: 56 teraflops, 16 terabytes of
memory
>4 racks, one row, wired as a 16x16x16
3D torus
>1 PB of disk space, GPFS parallel file
system
>Operating system: Linux SuSE SLES 10
Public
frontend: bluegene.epfl.ch and processin
16. >A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF
UTILIZATION OF BLUE BRAIN IS THE
CASE “SHORT TERM MEMORY”.
>IN SOME MOVIES WE MIGHT HAVE
NOTICED THAT A PERSON MIGHT BE
HAVING SHORT TERM MEMORIES.
A another situation is that
when a person gets older,
then he starts forgetting or
takes a bit more time to
recognize to a person.
For the above reason we
need a blue brain.
17. OBJECTIVE
The project will search for
insights into how human
beings think and remember.
Scientists think that blue
brain could also help to
cure the Parkinson’s
disease.
The brain rewiring itself
every moment of its
existence. If the scientists
can crack open the secret
of how and why the brain
does it, the knowledge
could lead to new breed of
supercomputer.
18. RESEARCH WORK
IBM developing the “Blue
brain”
IBM, in partnership with
scientists at Switzerland’s
Ecole Polytechnique Federale
De Lausanne’s(EPFL) Brain
and Mind Institute will begin
simulating the brain’s
biological systems.
