H2020 CPSwarm Project at Dif2017 Exibition https://www.dif2017.org/exhibition...Alessandra Bagnato
CPSwarm proposes a new science of system integration and tools to support engineering of CPS swarms i.e., complex herds of heterogeneous CPS that collaborate based on local policies and that exhibit a collective behavior
http://www.cpswarm.eu/
The project aims at defining a complete tool chain that enables the designer to: Set-up collaborative, autonomous CPSs; Test the swarm performance with respect to the design goal; and Massively deploy solutions towards “reconfigurable” CPS devices.

14th Oct: UK/Spain opportunities in Spacetech from Agritech to Zero emissionsSIN_Spain
Join us to discover how the UK and Spain are boosting
commercial and R&D collaboration in the space sector.
Areas of discussion will include advice on establishing
a company in the UK and looking for opportunities for
joint R&D collaboration such as Horizon 2020.
Satellites provide widely enabling technologies such as positioning,
communication and observation that can be applied across many
sectors. This is an exciting time for the sector, which continues to
develop via innovation in order to reach the widest range of
applications to benefit society.
Slide from a 3-minute presentation about my research project ResilRoad (Risk-based Resilience indicators for roadway networks), which is part of SMARTI ETN.
The Technology Strategy Board has identified Creative Industries/Digital Media as one of
ten candidate areas for a Technology and Innovation Centre (TIC), as part of a significant
programme of investment in TICs over coming years. The recently published Strategy and
Implementation Plan (http://www.innovateuk.org/_assets/0511/TSB_TICClosingTheGapv2.pdf)
sets out the approach being taken by the TSB.
The Creative Industries KTN, in partnership with the TSB Creative Industries team, has been facilitating a process of discussion and engagement across the creative industries community, and has developed a set of 'straw-men' propositions to help stimulate debate.
The attached presentation sets out 3 possible TIC scenarios - focused on particular research or technology challenge areas, with three different business models.
These do not represent the views of the Creative Industries KTN or the TSB, but are presented here to help generate discussion about what a possible Creative Industries/Digital Media TIC might look like.

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.

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. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

Generating a custom Ruby SDK for your web service or Rails API using Smithyg2nightmarescribd
Have you ever wanted a Ruby client API to communicate with your web service? Smithy is a protocol-agnostic language for defining services and SDKs. Smithy Ruby is an implementation of Smithy that generates a Ruby SDK using a Smithy model. In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.

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.
