Describing Customizable Products on the Web of Data (LDOW 2013)François-Paul Servant
Linked Data On the Web Workshop (LDOW 2013, WWW 2013, Rio de Janeiro)
Exposing data about customizable products is a challenging issue, because of the number of features and options customers can choose from, and of the intricate constraints between them. However, the configuration process, by which the customer makes her choice, one step at a time, is a graph traversal among partially defined products; that is Linked Data browsing. This natural yet fruitful abstraction for product customization hides complexity from the client agent,
and allows corporations to publish descriptions of their ranges of products, in their own terms. To open these ranges to comparison, corporate vocabularies have to be linked to known entities in the LOD cloud; the creation of sharable thesauri is discussed.
This document provides specifications for redesigning an eBay listing. The redesign involves dividing the listing into categories like vehicle biography and inspection report. It also requires implementing new elements like vehicle characteristics, an audio tour, and vehicle data. The document describes the requirements, including high priority needs like updating the flash skin and sections for new elements. It also provides an information architecture map of the listing's content and organization.

Signal-Oriented ECUs in a Centralized Service-Oriented Architecture: Scalabil...RealTime-at-Work (RTaW)
The industry is quickly moving away from a function/signal-oriented architecture towards Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA). To carry-over legacy signal-oriented ECUs during the transition phase, Volvo Cars has developed a layered software (SW) architecture based on the concepts of "device proxys" (i.e., one per legacy ECU), signal real-time database and service interface. This architecture, executing on the central computer on the TSN backbone, provides a clear separation of concerns between its components with a reduced additional complexity.
In this presentation, we will review the main challenges faced in the integration of signal-oriented ECUs into SOA, and present the solutions explored at Volvo with a focus on layered SW architecture in the centralized E/E architecture and its 3 core components:
o Device Proxies
o Signal DataBase
o Service Interface
We then report on the performances of this architecture in terms of latencies and conclude on the maximum number of signal-oriented frames and legacy ECUs that can be handled. The performance evaluation is conducted by simulation, with sensitivity analysis to identify the performance bottlenecks. The E/E architecture under study is a prototype TSN-based central computing architecture targeted at next-generation models.
The main questions that will be discussed throughout the presentation are 1) how to efficiently handle signal to service conversion? 2) The performance and the scalability of the SW architecture proposed and 3) the suitability of SOME/IP as the SOA protocol.

Abstract: Until today existing enterprise applications are integrated, tested, and deployed as monoliths. This is very time-consuming and hinders agile business models. Cloud technology promises unlimited scalability, short release cycles, quick deployments and antifragility. But can we evolve these systems into the cloud with reasonable effort? What do we have to change and what are the risks involved? This talk will share the experiences from a real world customer project and present an industrialized approach for the Cloud-native evolution of existing IT landscapes.
Strategies for End-to-End Timing Guarantees in a Centralized Software Defined...RealTime-at-Work (RTaW)
This presentation reports on design choices explored for next-generation zonal E/E architectures supporting mixed criticality traffic with strong timing constraints at the gateways between Ethernet and CAN:
• We present methods to validate strategies for packing/unpacking CAN frames to be transmitted over an Ethernet backbone
• We present a novel use-case for Time Aware Shaper (TAS), used to confine the traffic from Android applications into short, periodic transmission windows, shielding hence the rest of the traffic from their interference under any evolution scenario. System-level simulations are used to compare TAS with two alternative solutions based on priorities and Credit Based Shaper (CBS)
• This study exemplifies how the collaboration between an OEM, a Tier1 and a timing analysis tool vendor built a timing-accurate model of the SDV architecture to explore design alternatives, reduce the time for prototyping and to provide new inputs for the 802.1DG Automotive profile

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdfBen Linders
Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained.
But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture?
In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change.
Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.

Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

7. Automotive ranges
Cannot be enumerated: defined "in intention"
A set of Variables and Constraints between their values ("specifications"):
a "Constraint Satisfaction Problem" (CSP)
EC-WEB 2014
Computationally hard!
Reasoning software required to handle them
8. How to publish such descriptions?
The CSP can be represented using Semantic Web languages
But publishing such data on the web would be too demanding of the clients
Reasoning better hosted on the server

12. Configuration as Linked Data
Each Configuration is identified by a URI
Configuration = "Partially Defined Product" = state of the configuration process
Configuration Process = Traversal of a graph of linked Configurations
= Linked Data!
Reasoning handled by the server, complexity hidden from the client
Configuration ontology ("COLD")
http://purl.org/configurationontology
3 main classes: Specification, Configuration and ConfigurationLink
5 properties: chosenSpec, impliedSpec, possible, alternative, impossible
EC-WEB 2014
the different kinds of relations between a Configuration and a Specification
A generic, domain independent ontology
not limited to the automotive industry
doesn't depend on the vocabulary used for the specifications
most online configurator applications could use it

17. Search engines can effectively index these data
Accurate description of the range, that can be explored by crawlers
just a matter of following links
But 10^20 is huge: partial indexing
Some specifications have more value than others:
search engines can choose the links they want to follow (the meaning of each
link being tagged by the specification)
publishers can provide hints
EC-WEB 2014
sitemap, no-follow directive
Handling typical user requests easily manageable
Typical request: a few specifications (4?)
"diesel sunroof climate control"
Number of popular features by car model: 15?
-> less than 2000 configurations need to be indexed / car model
18. Proposal for Schema.org
Use a streamlined version of COLD for the description of customizable
products
(Some properties being needed by advanced configurator applications only)
Bare minimum: a new Feature (or "ProductFeature") class, and a new feature
property
an idea shared by several extension proposals
Beware, to the semantics of the feature property
EC-WEB 2014
must *not* to be used when a feature is only possible
Allows consumer applications to correctly index a configuration by its features
but they don't get the "smart links" provided by cold:possible
publisher can use the sitemap file of its site to point search engines to configurations
cold:possible and cold:ConfigurationLink too complex for Schema.org?
just a matter of reification
what Schema.org seems to want to handle
19. Conclusion
Ranges of customizable products can be described as Linked Data
Accurate descriptions of complex ranges of products, that can be effectively
indexed by search engines
With minimal additions to Schema.org, the description of configurable
products such as cars could gain momentum, opening new opportunities.
