What is cognitive computing? How IBM Watson can contribute to the development of innovative FinTech solutions? The presentation of Sasha Lazarevic and Pierre Kaufmann from Geneva, Switzerland to the FinTech community on the potential domans of application
High Performance Computing and the Opportunity with Cognitive TechnologyIBM Watson
With the ability to reduce “time to insight” and accelerate research breakthroughs by providing immense computational power, high performance computing is becoming increasingly important in the marketplace. Meanwhile, cognitive technology has risen to prominence, similarly accelerating new insight, but through a very different approach - by analyzing previously ignored unstructured data, which accounts for 80% of new data created today.
By combining the powerful computing power of the HPC market, along with the machine learning, natural language processing, and even computer vision techniques found within cognitive technology, there is a huge opportunity to accelerate breakthroughs and enable better decision making than ever before.

IBM Connections Activity Stream 3rd Party Integration - Social Connect VI - P...James Gallagher
Have you ever thought that your organisation could be utilising IBM Connections more? The session will demonstrate the highly flexible and integratable component that is the IBM Connections' Activity Stream. The stream can be integrated into different IBM products such as IBM Notes and IBM WebSphere Portal but is also an Open Social Gadget and therefore can run within any OpenSocial container such as Apache Shindig. This stream is based on an open standard and the content within does not have to be from Connections alone. One business partner integrated Atlassian JIRA and Confluence content into the Activity Stream. This presentation explains and demonstrates how to utilise this functionality in your organisation.

Machine learning. Artificial intelligence's influence on marketing.Alina Hueckelkamp
This presentation shows how machine learning influence marketing. The algorithm selecting content on mobile devices based on their relevance answering needs. The url internet as we know is less and less visited. The Alpha Apps are taking over. All big players are working on their own personal assistants trying to predict what we want, directly acting on our needs. So what is marketing role in future and how can you marketing when an self-learning algorithm is your audience?
Learn the advantages and disadvantages of machine learning algorithms versus traditional statistical modelling approaches to solve complex business problems.
What is OpenStack and the added value of IBM solutionsSasha Lazarevic
OpenStack has become de-facto standard for private cloud implementations. This is presentation of OpenStack basics, with a conclusion that can be valuable to professional services. I recommend the clients to pay attention to IBM's value-added solutions like Cloud Manager and Cloud Orchestrator.

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.

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.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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.

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.
