The document discusses systems engineering challenges and opportunities, including:
1) Growing mission complexity is exceeding our ability to manage risk, and system designs emerge from pieces rather than sound architectures, resulting in brittle systems.
2) Technical and programmatic sides of projects are poorly coupled, hampering decision making and increasing risk.
3) Too much focus on process comes at the expense of design quality, driving up costs and risk.
The document proposes addressing these with model-based systems engineering, architecture frameworks, and integrating technical and programmatic considerations through architecture.

Increasing the Probability of Project Success with Five Principles and PracticesGlen Alleman
There are many approaches to managing projects in every domain.
This seminar lays the foundations for increasing the probability of project success, no matter the domain, what technology, what approach to delivering the outcomes of the project.
The principles of this approach are immutable.
The practices for implementing the principles are universally applicable.
Each chart in this presentation, contains guidance that can be applied to your project, no matter the domain.
In our short hour here, we’re going to cover a lot of material.
The bibliography contains the supporting materials we can tailor to your individual project
Understanding the five immutable principles to project success will help project managers deliver on time, on budget when talking projects of any size, in any domain
Project Evaluation and Estimation in Software DevelopmentProf Ansari
Cost-benefit analysis
It mainly comprise two steps
Identify and estimating all of the costs and benefits of carrying out the project and operating the delivered application.
Expressing these costs and benefits in common units
We need to evaluate the net benefit, that is, the difference between the total benefit and the total benefit and the total cost of creating and operating the system.
We can categorize cost according to where they originate in the life of the project.

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.
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.
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.

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.

Editor's Notes
Just one slide on AFT… extending improving the RMA and CDF, more up front thinkin gabout “why”… our quick solution to avoid SysML learning c urve…. 4X stakeholder radiation risk concern and success criteria energetic radiation view, point to in work driving scenarios RELM Viewpoint
This slide has one step of animation. The first image shows how a system model serves as the integration component for system analysis, design, implementation, and verification. Click: now you see the names and topics of the five presentations: Alex Jimenez talking about Cable Harness Systems, etc, etc.
Talk about in terms of ‘this is the first time doing this top down, and in early formulation these are the things we find valuable (put this comment way up in the outline)
Provides an overview, or “road map” for where we want to be...not just for this quarter but overall roadmap.
Together with previous slide, this slide will show the proposed process flow and how a unified data repository is what we want to achieve such that the various “stages” of this process can be addressed.
Key point: Comparison of existing Level 1 Electrical Function Block Diagram with a model of this view, which is constructed in MD/SysML framework. One of our first assignments was to capture a “Level 1” electrical function block diagram as shown. However, it quickly became apparent in the modeling exercise that this was more difficult of a task because the existing block diagram was not very clear with respect to the type of interfaces, their connections, and being consistent showing what constitutes a “Level 1 Electrical System Functional Block Diagram”. To complete this assignment it was necessary to define what is a Level 1 Functional Block diagram, and this lead to our definition of a “Subsystem View” of the the electrical system architecture. The purpose of this view is to specify electrical signal types that are transmitted between subsystems.
