Open source software is so much more than shared tools we use to get ahead in business. Our communities are a unique and powerful example of social and intellectual collaboration – and yet, we still hone our skills by writing our own alarm clock apps? This session will take the notion of a Contributor to the next level by demonstrating how to contribute to open source projects that serve the public good. We will review ways to find and contribute to open source projects with a focus on improving ourselves through work that matters. - Can we make a difference? - Principles of Open Source, Reconsidered - Finding Projects & Contributing Promote projects, grow community, contribute code, documentation, reviews, suggestions, support

Reproducible Science and Deep Software Variability
Reproducible Science and Deep Software VariabilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
Biology, medicine, physics, astrophysics, chemistry: all these scientific domains need to process large amount of data with more and more complex software systems. For achieving reproducible science, there are several challenges ahead involving multidisciplinary collaboration and socio-technical innovation with software at the center of the problem. Despite the availability of data and code, several studies report that the same data analyzed with different software can lead to different results. I am seeing this problem as a manifestation of deep software variability: many factors (operating system, third-party libraries, versions, workloads, compile-time options and flags, etc.) themselves subject to variability can alter the results, up to the point it can dramatically change the conclusions of some scientific studies. In this keynote, I argue that deep software variability is a threat and also an opportunity for reproducible science. I first outline some works about (deep) software variability, reporting on preliminary evidence of complex interactions between variability layers. I then link the ongoing works on variability modelling and deep software variability in the quest for reproducible science.Open Source: Freedom and Community
This document discusses open source software and its relevance to libraries. It provides an overview of open source, including definitions of open source and free software. It addresses common misconceptions about open source. The document outlines benefits of open source like collaboration, transparency, and cost savings. It discusses how open source is widely used in business, government, and education. Finally, it addresses how open source aligns with library values and how libraries can get involved with open source.
Develop & Deploy cloud-native apps as resilient Microservices Architectures
You’ve been hearing about Microservices for months, and probably have taken a look about 12-factor and cloud-native apps too. But there’s a myriad of different frameworks and tools that you can use to craft your software and join the pieces together into a Microservices Architecture. You want to use the best tool for the job, and you need a hassle-free DevOps pipeline to orchestrate and deploy all of them.
Burr explains how you can combine a lot of different technologies and tools that will open your eyes for the huge possibilities that Microservices can enable you to achieve. Have it all: containers, Docker, Vert.x, Wildfly Swarm, Spring Boot, NodeJS, .NET, OpenShift, Jenkins, Kubernetes and perhaps much more.

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.

The document discusses different word processing programs such as Microsoft Word, StarOffice, and Corel WordPerfect. It notes some key differences between the programs, such as Word and StarOffice using a ruler bar by default while WordPerfect does not. StarOffice also uses the left side of the screen for shortcuts. All three programs allow automatic underlining, but StarOffice sometimes underlines common words incorrectly. The help systems in StarOffice are also described as not being as usable and comprehensive as the other programs. The document also discusses the importance of being able to convert and share files between different word processing programs when working with other companies.
Open Source - 5 myths
This document summarizes 5 myths about open source software:
1) Open source software is unsupported and unreliable, but the document shows that open source software like PostgreSQL/PostGIS can perform faster than proprietary software like Oracle 11g in benchmarks. Open source software also tends to have fewer bugs per line of code than proprietary software.
2) Big companies don't use open source software, but many big companies do use open source software and contribute to open source projects.
3) Open source software is free, but there are costs associated with certifications, integration, training, support, and online services for open source software.
4) Open source is unsustainable, but open source business models can be sustainable through

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAU
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away

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.

For the full video of this presentation, please visit: https://www.edge-ai-vision.com/2024/06/temporal-event-neural-networks-a-more-efficient-alternative-to-the-transformer-a-presentation-from-brainchip/
Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.Main news related to the CCS TSI 2023 (2023/1695)
