Illustration showing internal corporate workflow process for complaints and legal matters. From intake of customer complaint to e-discovery and resolution.
Workflow Foundation (WF4) allows visualizing and simplifying complex workflow patterns through a drag-and-drop interface. Key concepts include isolation of workflow instances from the host application and threading of instances separately from the main thread. The document demonstrates creating a simple workflow application in Visual Studio and passing data into and between activities using arguments and a custom activity. It also discusses alternative hosting models and types of workflows as well as services for persistence, tracking, and monitoring of workflow instances.
The document discusses temporal state machines and workflows. It defines workflow as understanding the rules and steps of a process. All workflows are based on rules with states that have true and false behaviors. It then provides an example of a temporal state machine workflow table with rules, test states, behaviors, and traces. The temporal state machine engine manages the temporal pointer and trace. Rules are defined as complete steps in the table and provide structure for nested engines, objects, and threads. Understanding temporal logic can improve software quality by reducing complexity.
This presentation describes the service oriented architecture of a salable web based workflow platform developed by Reach1to1 (http://www.reach1to1.com), and used in various products like On2Biz (http://www.on2.biz)
State machines are an approach to workflow design that allows a lot more flexibility, a lot more readability, and a lot less chaos to almost any process model. In a very real sense, almost all workflows would benefit from being redesigned as state machines, but certain use cases fit this design model particularly well. This session will explain what state machines are, why to use them, how to create them in Visual Studio and other products, and how to redesign a number of workflow models as state machines instead.

The document discusses using coded masks and modulation techniques to capture light field information and enable digital refocusing and 6D displays with a single 2D sensor. It proposes placing a coded mask in front of the sensor to heterodyne the light field and extract its 4D information. Several applications are mentioned, including coded illumination for motion capture, a 6D display using spatial and illumination variation, and a light field camera that can digitally refocus using a single photograph.
Green screen techniques allow parts of an image to be replaced, which allows a small number of actors to portray large scenes, like the D-Day landings. Motion capture involves tracking markers placed on actors' bodies to capture their movements and apply them to digital characters. Markerless motion capture systems aim to capture more subtle movements without markers by tracking the body. Both techniques are used widely in movies and games to bring realistic digital characters and environments to life.
This document discusses several unconventional marketing campaigns. It describes a campaign by Banda agency for an electronics retailer that featured the head of digital marketing dressed as a Christmas tree rapping. It also discusses a campaign by Bodo featuring a catchy song and video with various filming techniques. Additionally, it mentions a vending machine installed by sock brand Sammy Icon that dispensed two pairs of socks for a promotional price. The document analyzes these campaigns and their creative approaches to marketing.
Glass allows for hands-free, point-of-view photography that is always available and instantly triggerable. This new type of photography enables capturing people met, interesting things seen, and information to remember. Computational photography techniques may also allow for low-light photography, seeing through objects, magnification, motion effects, and face recognition through Glass in the future. New business models and artistic styles could emerge from these new camera capabilities.
