The document discusses creating the world's first open programmable city by building a research network in Bristol, UK integrating optical, wireless, IoT, and computing technologies. It will provide an experimental platform and utility called "City Experimentation as a Service". The network will support digital innovation and include an SDN-enabled optical network, wireless network, IoT sensors, and cloud infrastructure. It aims to be technology agnostic and provide network slicing to share resources among users through network virtualization. This will create an open testbed for diverse infrastructure, service, and application requirements.

A brief introduction to the Eurotech Group and Eurotech’s M2M Field-to-Application Building Blocks for Smart City Applications
M2M Applications and Use Cases: Industrial Air Conditioning System Monitoring, Environmental Monitoring, Retail Shop Performance Measurement, Retail Energy and Asset Management, Elderly Living Project, Taxi Queue Optimization, Parking Management, Cool Chain Monitoring and Fleet Management Optimization
Many HPC applications are massively parallel and can benefit from the spatial parallelism offered by reconfigurable logic. While modern memory technologies can offer high bandwidth, designers must craft advanced communication and memory architectures for efficient data movement and on-chip storage. Addressing these challenges requires to combine compiler optimizations, high-level synthesis, and hardware design.
In this talk, I will present challenges, solutions, and trends for generating massively parallel accelerators on FPGA for high-performance computing. These architectures can provide performance comparable to software implementations on high-end processors, and much higher energy efficiency thanks to logic customization.

Industrial IoT Mayhem? Java IoT Gateways to the RescueEurotech
Industrial IoT comes with great expectations for operational efficiency, promising improved asset utilization and productivity gains. IIoT challenges include reliability, security, low maintenance, long lifecycle, and integration into heterogeneous and fragmented systems. This session proposes some architectural patterns that can be leveraged to overcome these challenges. It introduces, at the center of the solution, Java-powered IoT gateways and modular IoT application frameworks such as the open source Eclipse Kura. Incorporating a live demonstration, the presentation highlights some of the latest Eclipse Kura features such as a pluggable device model for fieldbus protocols, visual data flow, and connectivity across various IoT cloud service providers.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
