The document discusses the pros and cons of developing mobile apps using HTML5 versus using native development. For HTML5, the pros include less code needed, no platform-specific training required for developers, and web developers can build mobile apps. However, HTML5 has limitations in addressing platform-specific issues and lack of access to all device features. Native development allows deeper integration with device features but requires learning multiple platforms and languages. The document provides examples of apps developed using each approach.
As a Product Owner, I’ve learned a ton of lessons to helping my team create something great with cutting edge HTML5, and I thought I’d share those lessons.
Ning Zhou, CTO of Blank Slate Factory, will demonstrate the creation of a web application using browser side technologies (HTML/CSS/JS) and the Blank Slate Web Platform. By using the Blank Slate platform, designers and developers can build, share, analyze and monetize web applications without having to built core application capabilities such as data management, user management and payment collection. We are currently accepting beta customers to Blank Slate. Beta customers can be developers and business people -- and we're helping to match people with complementary skills.

Hybrid Mobile App Development Frameworks 2016PixelCrayons
A hybrid mobile application refers to something that combines elements of both native as well as web applications. For creating mobile apps that are user-specific, the HTML5 framework provides several alternatives that have their own dynamics and functionalities. So, why these hybrid apps are so prominent? It is the ease of the developers who just have to write these apps at one time and get the facility to have them run on any platform. In this slide, we will provide a cluster of HTML5 frameworks like phonegap app development, ionic app development, sencha app development, famo.us framework for the comfort of programming and designing:
Enhancing SharePoint with Responsive Web DesignEric Overfield
One of the hottest topics in Web Design over the last few years has been Responsive Web Design (RWD). The theory of one site structure for current web devices, including tablets and smartphones, has also attracted SharePoint developers, but the complexity of RWD has been a stumbling block. In this session we will start with an overview of what is Responsive Web Design followed by an in-depth look into the pros and cons of applying a responsive design on SharePoint. We will then dive into the code and learn how to create a SharePoint site that is both responsive and attractive. We will finish with a look at SharePoint 2013 and Device Channels, and review how Responsive Web Design can play a role in current and future SharePoint Branding projects.
Session Take-aways:
Building off what was learned in the previous session, Branding SharePoint for Evolving Internet Devices, this session is geared towards web developers, programmers and IT to learn "how" to code for modern Internet devices. Attendees will have been exposed to not only what Responsive Web Design is and how it functions, but also how to apply it directly to SharePoint. As with all techniques, there are pros and cons to Responsive Web Design, not only in general but also how it is applied to, and utilized by SharePoint. After a thorough review and multiple demos attendees will have seen the code and learned what to expect. Finally attendees will learn how SharePoint 2013 handles mobile computing and how Responsive Web Design can help solve SharePoint 2013's mobile computing shortcomings.
Highlights:
Find out what the hot web design topic Response Web Design is all about.
See how to utilize Response Web Design in your SharePoint project.
Learn how to leverage this knowledge in SharePoint 2013 as well.

Have you ever wondered how to easily integrate a mobile phone native feature set with your corporate web applications? We will show that any XPages developer currently building mobile-accessible websites already has the skillset to build native mobile apps using IBM Worklight. We will cover installation, setup, similarities in designer clients, the test environment, the skills necessary and provide a working example.
You have the skills, you have the knowledge. Your only challenge is to come to the session and understand how to make this work. Go from HTML5 to native in minutes.
PhoneGap is a mobile development framework that helps build Apps for mobile platforms like Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Blackberry, Bada, Symbian, WebOS and Tizen.
The JavaScript team at Neev is well equipped with multiple JavaScript frameworks such as PhoneJS, AngularJS, jQuery among others.
Most of the complexity in creating an application using PhoneGap framework lies in the level of expertise in JavaScript.
HTML5 or Android for Mobile Development?Reto Meier
Android apps or the mobile web? It's often a hard choice when deciding where to invest your mobile development resources. While the mobile web continues to grow, apps and app stores are incredibly popular. We will present both perspectives and offer some suggestions for making the most of each platform.
Deal with the dilemma of hybrid and nativeswamileo1
There are two kinds of platforms that can be used to build an app, Hybrid or Cross platforms and Native platforms. Hybrid and Native technologies have their own pros and cons although it is still debatable which framework is better.

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.
