Customers often tell us they are unhappy with their current ITSM tool solution. Some go so far as to say “we really didn’t like the previous tool either, but it is much better than the one we just implemented”. The root cause of this dissatisfaction is (usually) not the functionality of the tool itself, but in how the tool was rolled out and how expectations were communicated. Join us, as we will share insight on considerations and attributes associated with successes and failures of ITSM tool implementations….going from Strategy to Execution.
Our vision is clear. We are here to change the way enterprise software is acquired, hosted and maintained. Today’s technology offerings are evolving to meet changing customer requirements and market demographics. Enterprise software is one of the last technologies prone to long evaluation cycles, huge deployment costs and risky implementations. While most software vendors provide freemium purchase models, ERP and other applications are woefully out-of-date. Business moves too quickly. And, a new generation of professionals views the RFP selection process as a relic from another era. It doesn’t need to be that way.
Once the software is installed, its capabilities should be boundless. While SaaS offerings have changed the financial dynamic of purchasing software it has created compromises in customization and extensibility. Our vision is different. We foresee the need to add operational and performance insight, a vast array of tools to speed implementation and enhance usability, a catalog of complementary software to meet the unique needs of businesses through an app store concept, and a social fabric to truly enrich application functionality. With so much innovation creating new frontiers, why confine your enterprise applications to yesterday’s traditions?

Mainframes and Cobol Migration - Tools based - Arkin Softwarearkinsoftware
Arkin Software offers complete migration solution to retire Mainfarmes and Cobol based Applications. It is a migration framework- comprising of a set of automated tools; migration methodology; and experienced consultants that facilitate factory-like precision.
There are three Converter tools.
(a) GUI converter converts legacy GUI into web-structure, RIA technologies or thin-client GUI, with similar look & feel.
(b) Code converter converts business logic of the legacy code into equivalent java.
(c) DAO converter converts Data calls into a chosen persistent framework like SPRING JDBC or JDBC.
Besides these, there are two extremely important tools.
(d) Analyzer: It is this tool that helps us even if there is limited or non-existent documentation and application knowledge. This tool dives through legacy code, builds metrics and relationships to help our team to size and understand the legacy complexity and accurately estimate the migration effort.
(e) Traceability Generator. It maps legacy code to converted java code in a spreadsheet format. This traceability matrix serves two purposes: One is to ensure that no legacy code is missed out during conversion; and the other is to facilitate client’s internal teams to catch up with migrated Java code.
Arkin Software’s unique approach to migration is architecture-centric. That means, we start with the target architecture and migrate the legacy to that target. Never one-to-one migration. Because, migrated applications must live in production for another 20-25 years, which is possible only if they are built on right architecture. Nobody likes applications that may look like Java, but stink like legacy.

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.

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.
"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.
