This document discusses publishing EPA data as linked open data. It notes that the goal is to make open data, content, and web APIs the new default. Linked data allows data to be connected and treated like web pages. The EPA has published facility and substance data as linked open data and is piloting additional datasets. Publishing linked open data requires identifying relevant datasets, modeling the data, publishing it according to best practices, maintaining scripts to keep data current, and reviewing usage to support users. Recommendations include publishing in reusable formats like RDF, using open rather than proprietary formats, and defining URI strategies without reinventing existing best practices or vocabularies.

Scientific software sustainability and ecosystem complexityJames Howison
This document discusses the sustainability of scientific software in complex ecosystems. It notes that while the ability to recombine digital information is beneficial for innovation, it also threatens sustainability by increasing the work needed to maintain software as usage diversifies. Three models for attracting resources to do this work - commercial markets, open source peer production, and grant funding - are examined. Grant funding is found to be weakest at gaining visibility into diverse usage contexts. Improving sustainability therefore requires either suppressing recombination or incentivizing greater visibility into how software is recombined in practice.
The document discusses how the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) leverages tools from Apache Solr and Apache Object Oriented Data Technology (OODT) to manage and distribute large amounts of climate science data. ESGF is an international collaboration that uses a distributed network of nodes running various software components to provide access to over 2.5 petabytes of climate model output and observational data. This infrastructure supports the research of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and projects like CMIP5, the largest coordinated climate modeling effort to date.

Overall, the experiences highlight both opportunities and common pitfalls of interacting with linked data at scale in a large organization.
Two years ago at Devoxx UK we talked about DevOps, what it was, why it was important and how to get started. Boy, was it scary. Now we’re wiser. More battle-scarred. The large scale of the challenge for application writers exploiting cloud and DevOps is clearer, but so is the path forward. Understanding the DevOps approach is important, but equally you must understand specific deployment technologies, security issues, operational reliability, and how to drive organisational transformation. Whether creating simple applications or sophisticated microservice architectures many of the challenges are the same. Join us to learn how you can apply this within your team and company.

Examples of formulations are provided to demonstrate how components, concentrations, and metadata can be encoded. Potential applications of the standards are discussed, such as enabling sophisticated searches of mixture data from publications and vendors to facilitate properties prediction and hazards assessment. Adoption of the standards could help ensure the longevity and sharing of mixture data.
Chemical mixtures: File format, open source tools, example data, and mixtures...Alex Clark
This document discusses representing chemical mixtures using an open format called Mixfile. It proposes Mixfile as a standard format for mixtures, analogous to Molfile for individual molecules. Tools were created to edit and manipulate Mixfiles. Over 5,600 real-world mixture examples were extracted from text and represented in the Mixfile format. A MInChI notation was also defined as a condensed representation of mixtures. Future work is proposed to integrate mixture definitions and lookups into electronic lab notebooks and improve automated extraction of mixture information from text.

This document discusses bringing bioassay protocols into the world of informatics by using semantic annotations. It describes how measurements from bioassays contain many details that are usually only available as text, and outlines an approach using ontologies, natural language processing, and machine learning to extract this information and make it accessible for searching, comparing datasets, and identifying trends. The goal is to make all bioassay protocol data machine readable by developing common templates and annotation standards that can be applied to existing and new assay data sources.
Autonomous model building with a preponderance of well annotated assay protocolsAlex Clark
Combining large amounts of publicly available structure-activity data with assays that have carefully curated annotations opens the door to a number of ways to analyze the data behind the scenes. Combining fully machine readable input for a diverse variety of projects with modelling techniques that can be used without fussy parametrization allows models to be created and updated whenever new data arrives. Predictions from these models can be integrated into normal searching and visualization workflows, without any need for the user to opt-in or make extra decisions. This approach is novel and different from the way structure-activity models are normally deployed: useful predictions can be presented ubiquitously with literally zero additional work on behalf of the user. We will present our efforts to date regarding ways to both passively and actively draw attention to important drug discovery trends while exploring compounds and assays.
Representing molecules with minimalism: A solution to the entropy of informaticsAlex Clark
Cheminformatics as we know it is possible because so many molecular structures can be represented with datastructures and rules that are at first glance quite trivial. This first impression is highly misleading, since even within supposedly well behaved domains, edge cases arising from issues such as resonance, tautomerization, symmetry and stereochemistry - to name but a few - quickly add up. To supplement these genuine challenges, there is a whole additional class of problems caused by the mismatch between chemists' understanding of molecules and the datatypes that are necessary to capture a structure for informatics purposes. This line is blurred by the convenience of representing structures in a form that is very closely related to the diagram styles that have been in use since the dawn of chemistry. There are currently four major approaches to structure representation: connection tables (e.g. MDL Molfile), sketches (e.g. ChemDraw), canonical strings (e.g. SMILES and InChI) and atomic models (numerous 3D formats). Not only do all of these approaches have valid use cases, but they are deceptively incompatible with each other, even when addressing identical needs. Almost without exception, format conversions are not commutative, and every translation involves losing some amount of data. Given that recording chemical structures in machine readable form has become such a critical part of scientific research, it is essential to define a fundamental representation that captures the key structural definition asserted by the experimental chemist, for a broad and useful range of molecules, and ideally in a way that is closely related to visual drawing mnemonics. The number of data concepts needed to satisfy these conditions is quite small, and is mostly satisfied by the most commonly used subset of the venerable MDL Molfile format. This presentation will discuss how this subset, with a few minor corrections and clarifications, can and should be used as the reference standard for molecules, and how the informatics community can benefit from having well defined standards.

The anatomy of a chemical reaction: Dissection by machine learning algorithmsAlex Clark
This document discusses using machine learning algorithms to analyze chemical reaction data. It describes how current reaction reporting formats are not well-suited for computational analysis. A more structured reporting format is proposed to fully describe reactions in a digitally friendly way, including specifying reactants, products, quantities, yields, and metrics like atom efficiency. This structured data would allow modeling of reaction substitutability and enable large-scale machine learning of chemical transformations.
Compact models for compact devices: Visualisation of SAR using mobile appsAlex Clark
Presented at American Chemical Society meeting, Boston, 2015. Describes how cheminformatics algorithms and visualisation interfaces have advanced on mobile apps to cover a diverse variety of functionality, increasingly calculated on the device itself rather than deferring to a web service. Culminates in a demo of the PolyPharma app prototype (see http://cheminf20.org/2015/08/06/the-polypharma-app-a-mash-up-of-ideas-and-technology)
Green chemistry in chemical reactions: informatics by designAlex Clark
Chemical informatics technology can be of assistance to chemists for describing reactions in numerous ways, including calculating green chemistry metrics such as process mass intensity, E-factor and atom economy. To facilitate this, chemical reactions have to be described in more precise detail than is the norm for most chemists. There are also numerous practical ways to add more green chemistry functionality to lab notebooks, such as enumerating searchable reaction transforms for environmentally favourable reactions, automatically looking up toxicity and hazard information, and others which are mentioned in the slides.
This presentation was given at the Green Chemistry & Engineering conference in 2015 (Americal Chemical Society Green Chemistry Insititute).
Green chemistry is an important subject that needs to be a part of every chemist's education, as well as a part of the daily routine of the professional synthetic chemist. This talk describes how a new app can be used to bring green chemistry metrics to reaction descriptions, once they are captured in a proper cheminformatics format. It also describes some of the additional data resources that can be incorporated into the user experience, and how this helps both students and professionals.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.

How we managed to grow and scale a RAG application from zero to thousands of users in 7 months. Lessons from technical challenges around managing high load for LLMs, RAGs and Vector databases.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Lee Barnes - Path to Becoming an Effective Test Automation Engineer.pdfleebarnesutopia
So… you want to become a Test Automation Engineer (or hire and develop one)? While there’s quite a bit of information available about important technical and tool skills to master, there’s not enough discussion around the path to becoming an effective Test Automation Engineer that knows how to add VALUE. In my experience this had led to a proliferation of engineers who are proficient with tools and building frameworks but have skill and knowledge gaps, especially in software testing, that reduce the value they deliver with test automation.
In this talk, Lee will share his lessons learned from over 30 years of working with, and mentoring, hundreds of Test Automation Engineers. Whether you’re looking to get started in test automation or just want to improve your trade, this talk will give you a solid foundation and roadmap for ensuring your test automation efforts continuously add value. This talk is equally valuable for both aspiring Test Automation Engineers and those managing them! All attendees will take away a set of key foundational knowledge and a high-level learning path for leveling up test automation skills and ensuring they add value to their organizations.
