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!

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).

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.

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.

The electro-mechanical power steering system
assists the steering movement performed by the
driver by means of an electric motor. This motor,
in turn, drives a worm gear. The speed-depend-
ent steering system conveys a direct steering feel,
without any annoying feedback from the road to
the driver.
This Self-Study Programme explains this new
technology and the differences compared with
conventional hydraulic power steering systems.
The electro-mechanical power steering system is
currently fitted to the Lupo 3L TDI.

What you need to know about the
function of the electro-mechanical
power steering system:
1. The system offers the driver power-assisted
steering in dependence on actual driving
conditions
2. The steering movement of the driver is
transmitted to the worm gear and steering
gear via the steering shaft and an inter-
mediate spindle.
3. Self-alignment of the steering wheel in
the straight-ahead position is assisted by the
electro-mechanical power steering system.
4. The system conveys the feeling of contact with
the road to the driver.
5. The system monitors the input and output sig-
nals, as well as operation of the component
parts of the steering system.
6. The safety steering column is adjustable for
height, and incorporates the proven crash
concept pioneered in the Lupo.
7. It provides anti-theft protection through a lock
on the steering shaft.

Overview
Steering gear
The entire electro-mechanical power steering
system is integrated in a compact unit. This unit
comprises all component parts of the steering
gear, e.g. control unit, electric motor and the
sensors required for control. Hence, there is no
longer any need for complex wiring
arrangements.

The electro-mechanical power steering system
In the hydraulic power steering system, the sys-
tem components after the universal joint shaft
are engaged in the steering operation, whereby
steering is assisted by oil pressure.
In the electro-mechanical power steering
system, steering is assisted in front of the
universal joint shaft. In this system, the assisting
moment is generated by an electric motor.
By comparison:
The specifications emphasise the difference.

9. The torsion bar
The central component part of the electro/
mechanical power steering system is the
torsion bar.
It is made from tempered steel, which allows the
bar to rotate about its longitudinal axis. The tor-
sion bar mechanically connects the intermediate
spindle to the worm drive shaft.
Function
Through this connection, the intermediate spindle
and the worm drive shaft are able to counter-
rotate about a narrow angle. This narrow angle
is enough for the system to detect the start of a
steering operation.

10. The worm gear
is located in an aluminium gearcase where the
electric motor is also mounted.
A worm on the motor shaft meshes with the gear
on the steering shaft. The gear ratio is 22:1. The
gear body and the worm are made of metal. The
gear ring is manufactured from plastic to reduce
mechanical noise.

11. The height adjustment
The height adjustment mechanism is securely
connected to the steering column tube. Adjust-
ment travel is 39 mm.
The universal joint shaft
The two forks of the drive shaft are connected to
a short telescopic arm. This telescopic arm allows
length compensation of the height adjustment
mechanism and affords the occupants protection
in a head-on collision.
If the steering wheel is adjusted upwards, the tel-
escopic arm is compressed (i.e. made shorter).
This reduces the distance between steering wheel
and steering gear.
If the steering wheel is adjusted downwards,
the distance between steering wheel and steer-
ing gear is increased, and the telescopic arm is
extended.

is connected to the torsion bar. It registers a rota-
tion angle of the torsion bar in relation to the
intermediate spindle. The control unit calculates
a torque from this signal. If the calculated torque
exceeds a value of 0.01 Nm, the control unit
assumes that a steering assistance is required.

14. The electronics of the steering system
Sensor design
The two sensors are sliding contact potentiome-
ters. The steering position sender registers the
steer angle of the steering system through rota-
tion of the inner ring in relation to the housing
lower section. The steering moment sender regis-
ters the rotation of the torsion bar.
The housing has an inner ring. This ring is
mounted on the worm drive shaft with a clamp-
ing ring and can rotate relative to the housing.
Two pairs of potentiometers scan the brushes of
the inner conductor on the PCB in the housing.
This part is the steering position sender.
The other conductors transfer the signal from the
steering moment sender.

vated. In both cases, the fault indicator lamp
comes on.

pairs of potentiometer brushes. These brushes
scan the four conductors in the inner ring.
The sender ring is connected to the housing
cover. It fits exactly on the head of the torsion
bar. When the torsion bar rotates, the cover also
rotates relative to the inner ring. This movement is
detected by the potentiometer brushes and trans-
ferred to the control unit as a signal along the
printed conductors in the base of housing.

17. Electro-mechanical power steering
motor V187
This motor is bolted to the housing of the worm
gear by means of rubber buffers so that no
vibrations can be transmitted between the motor
and steering column. The motor shaft is con-
nected to the worm shaft via a flexible rubber
coupling in such a way that motor starting torque
is transmitted softly to the worm gear. The motor
itself has a maximum power consumption of
720 W and develops 2 Nm of torque. It has an
extremely short response time which allows it to
assist steering wheel movements quickly.
Electrical circuit
The electric motor receives its voltage supply via
steering column electronics control unit J527.

.
The diagram shows a steering column which
is split into an upper section and a lower section.
The steering moment sender is integrated in the
upper section, while the steering position sender
is located in the lower section.
The driver starts to turn the steering wheel.
The torsion bar is rotated at the same time.
The steering moment sender, which rotates
together with the torsion bar, supplies the control
unit signals indicating the magnitude and direc-
tion of rotation of the torque acting on the steer-
ing wheel. The control unit calculates the torque
assistance required from the signals and acti-
vates the electric motor. The aggregate of torque
acting on the steering wheel and torque assist-
ance is the effective torque acting on the steering
gear.

19. Electric motor
The torsion bar contin-
ues to rotate because
the driver continues
to apply steering lock
The torsion of the
torsion bar
is reduced.
If the driver increases the torque applied to the
steering wheel, the electric motor increases
torque assistance. This allows the steering gear to
rotate easily.
If the driver reduces the torque applied to the
steering wheel, the torsion of the torsion bar is
reduced. As a result, the steering moment sender
supplies a lower signal to the control unit.
The control unit reduces the torque assistance by
activating the electric motor.
Due to the wheel alignment, the steering system
tries to restore the wheels to the straight-ahead
position.
If resultant restoring moment via the steering
gear is greater than the aggregate of the torque
acting on the steering wheel and the torque
assistance, the system begins to turn the steering
back to the straight-ahead position.

Electric motor
Active self-alignment
If the driver releases the steering wheel when
cornering, the tension on the torsion bar is
relieved. At the same time, the electronics deacti-
vate the electric motor. As a result, torque assist-
ance is no longer required.
If the vehicle is still not travelling straight ahead,
this is registered via the steering position sender.
The electric motor is now activated so that the
steering is actively turned to the straight-ahead
position.
