Have you ever been before a local government agency struggling to convey a project? Have you ever been outbid on a proposal because you couldn’t communicate your design ideas? Has the owner asked for project options? We will take an office building project and utilize InfraWorks and Civil 3D to provide conceptual planning options along with planning board presentations. InfraWorks will answer these questions completely leaving no doubt regarding design intent or constructed impact.
The Alteryx Designer solves this by delivering an intuitive workflow for data blending and advanced analytics that leads to deeper insights in hours, not the weeks typical of traditional approaches! The Alteryx Designer empowers data analysts by combining data blending, predictive analytics, spatial analytics, and reporting, visualization and analytic apps into one workflow.

Analytic Excellence - Saying Goodbye to Old ConstraintsInside Analysis
The Briefing Room with Dr. Robin Bloor and Actian
Live Webcast August 6, 2013
http://www.insideanalysis.com
With all the innovations in compute power these days, one of the hardest hurdles to overcome is the tendency to think in old ways. By and large, the processing constraints of yesterday no longer apply. The new constraints revolve around the strategic management of data, and the effective use of business analytics. How can your organization take the helm in this new era of analysis?
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to find out! Veteran Analyst Wayne Eckerson of The BI Leadership Forum, will explain how a handful of key innovations has significantly changed the game for data processing and analytics. He'll be briefed by John Santaferraro of Actian, who will tout his company's unique position in "scale-up and scale-out" for analyzing data.

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.

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.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

A Category Manager for Chobani, a large yogurt manufacturer, would like to investigate the relationships between sales and pricing of the Chobani yogurt brand and the pricing of competing brands.
Utilizing a web-based interface, weekly sales for the Chobani yogurt brand across several grocery chains has been exported to an Excel spreadsheet. The file is named Yogurt_Sales_Data.xlsx. Weekly pricing across the grocery chains of competitors has also been generated. This file is named Yogurt_Pricing_Data.xlsx.
The goal is to prep the two files, blend the data to create an analytical dataset, analyze the data to gain insight into the relationships of pricing and sales, and finally, share the insights.
