UAVs and FME: Powering Your Drone and Its Data with FMESafe Software
This presentation will look at some typical UAV support workflows where FME can help both with flight planning and post processing. Examples include examining flight restrictions and obstacles to determine where it is safe to fly. For post processing, FME's tools for managing imagery will be examined, including georeferencing and mosaicking. The results from local test flights on a low-cost UAV platform will be reviewed. We will wrap with a summary of some customer applications where FME has been used to support UAV operations, and some of the challenges and opportunities that this rapidly growing industry presents in the near future.
Planning projects usually starts with tasks and milestones. The planner gathers this information from the participants – customers, engineers, subject matter experts. This information is usually arranged in the form of activities and milestones. PMBOK defines “project time management” in this manner. The activities are then sequenced according to the projects needs and mandatory dependencies.

Increasing the Probability of Project SuccessGlen Alleman
Risk Management is essential for development and production programs. Information about key cost, performance and schedule attributes are often uncertain or unknown until late in the program.
Risk issues that can be identified early in the program, which may potentially impact the program, termed Known Unknowns, can be alleviated with good risk management. -- Effective Risk Management 2nd Edition, Page 1, Edmund Conrow, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2003
Cost and schedule growth for complex projects is created when unrealistic technical performance expectations, unrealistic cost and schedule estimates, inadequate risk assessments, unanticipated technical issues, and poorly performed and ineffective risk management, contribute to project technical and programmatic shortfalls

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.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
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.

Structure of Workshop
This workshop amplifies the concepts presented in the practice symposium
titled “Critical Thinking on Critical Path Analysis”
Core principles
– All work is probabilistic
– Complex programs are always dynamic
– Plan B and Plan C can be defined in the PMB as alternatives
– Emerging plans must be dealt with as well
Notional example
– A notional spacecraft mission
Hands on identification of alternative points of integration (API)
– Have students identify New API
– Have students discuss and present their own issues with API on their
own projects
4. 4
Framing Assumptions for Managing in the
Presence of Uncertainty
Uncertainty creates risk
in two forms
– Probabilistic (Event
Based) uncertainty
• Reducible
– Statistical (Naturally
occurring) uncertainty
• Irreducible
The schedule for work in
presence of uncertainty is
always probabilistic

Spacecraft Mission
Spacecraft development program with the following subsystems
defined to produce the mission
– Structure (“the box”)
– Propulsion system (engines, tanks, fuel lines, etc.)
– Avionics (guidance and communications elements)
– Electrical power systems
– Primary payload (telescope)
– Secondary payload (radiation experiment)
– Flight software
All the above has to be assembled and tested to meet mission
objectives
8. 8
Exercise
Ask questions to determine sequencing options for integrating
subsystems, schedule risk associated with developing each
subsystem, and criticality of each element
Assess effects (positive or negative) of employing alternate
points of integration
Determine how to handle remaining residual or undefined
schedule risk
9. 9
Spacecraft Subsystem(s)
Subsystems Description
Structure (“the box”)
Framework for hanging all the components of
the spacecraft
Propulsion system
Engines, tanks, fuel lines, to make the
spacecraft fly.
Avionics

Recognition and Management of
Probabilistic Paths
Probabilistic critical paths may have greater total float than the
deterministic path but have higher schedule risk (consequence
and probability) and need to be managed
Strategically placed schedule margin is a proven effective tool
for managing unmitigated schedule risks
Define & manage paths most likely to drive delivery.
19. 19
Alternate Points of Incorporation
• Some components have no alternate POIs
• The current deterministic critical path has the most options for later installation
• Some paths have higher development risks
• Some paths have higher development risks and no alternate POIs
• If critical path was not defined as “longest current calculated path” what components
would you consider “critical”?
Acceptable alternate logic defined.
20. 20
Things To Remember
All critical path analyses are entirely dependent upon well
defined, structured, and managed schedule data
CP analysis is based off a single set of data (including logic);
you may have viable options (alternate POIs)
The real value of critical path analysis is the analysis.
Dynamic schedule management-Identifying and managing
probabilistic critical paths, by considering risk and viable
alternate logic, enables superior programmatic decisions.
Planning is a verb!
Editor's Notes
The five immutable principles of project management are:
Know where you are going by defining “done” at some point in the future. This point may be far in the future – months or years from now. Or closer in the future days or weeks from now.
Have some kind of plan to get to where you are going. This plan can be simple or it can be complex. The fidelity of the plan depends on the tolerance for risk by the users of the plan.
Understand the resources needed to execute the plan. How much time and money is needed to reach the destination. This can be fixed or it can be variable.
Identify the impediments to progress along the way to the destination. Have some means of removing, avoiding, or ignoring these impediments.
Have some way to measure your planned progress, not just your progress. Progress to Plan must be measured in units of physical percent complete.
