The document discusses seeding links from Wikipedia pages to the Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL) website between 2008-2012. It reviewed the top 5000 Wikipedia pages from May 2008 and selected pages about organisms to add BHL links. Linking from popular pages was expected to increase BHL traffic. The top 20 organism pages on Wikipedia were identified and links to original descriptions in BHL were prioritized. Traffic analysis showed that BHL succeeds when linking from book-related pages, and users stay longer and browse deeper. Keeping existing links and adding new links from rare titles, authors, and charismatic organisms was recommended to further increase traffic.

Findings from I Annotate 2016 concluded that the uptake of web annotation could be sufficiently moved forward by tackling three key issues: 1) interoperability, 2) domain use cases, and 3) user centered design. The Center for Biodiversity Informatics at the Missouri Botanical Garden has identified valuable use cases for developing in-depth user assessments of annotation needs in the specific domain of botanists. This presentation will share those use cases and talk about next steps in serving the annotation needs of botanists and their relevance for the larger scientific domain.

Documenting Ferguson: Building a community digital repositoryChris Freeland
Â
The August 2014 shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, along with other recent police-involved shootings around the country have inspired demonstrations, conversation, debate and calls for systemic change in our society. Soon after Brownâs shooting, Washington University Libraries and other St. Louis cultural heritage institutions established a repository to document events in or inspired by Ferguson. Appropriately named Documenting Ferguson, this community-sourced open repository now has more than 1,500 files of digital photographs, video recordings and other media contributed from all over the country. These are viewable online at http://digital.wustl.edu/ferguson. Video of this talk available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6whGNsesYA.
Newman Numismatic Portal Overview - Mar 2015Chris Freeland
Â
The Newman Numismatic Portal will create the worldâs most comprehensive online encyclopedia of American and Colonial coinage, currency, realia, and related correspondence and published literature. Materials from the Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Societyâs coin collections and supporting reference libraries will be digitized along with University collections and made available to an online community of scholars and enthusiasts. Digital content will be stored, curated and preserved by specialists in the Libraries, with corresponding curatorial activities on physical/analog materials. Outreach activities will raise awareness about the research portal and its contents.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
Â
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
Â
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an âinfrastructure container kubernetes guyâ, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefitâs both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
Â
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.

1. Reviewed top 5,000 requested pages in
Wikipedia for May 2008.*
2. Selected pages about organisms.
â BHL contains original descriptions and connecting
those to species pages was and is a priority for BHL.
3. Added links to BHL from Wikipedia page.
Rationale: Linking from popular pages is likely to
result in more traffic.

10. Takeaway: BHL succeeds with Wikipedia
when linking from book-related pages.
Stay longer
Browse
deeper
11. Takeaway, cont.
⢠Historic traffic is skewed because more of the
âseededâ links were from organism pages
⢠Wikipedians, without any guidance or
instruction, have made their own links to BHL
resources
â Those links are among the most active
⢠We can try to be organized about linking
between Wikipedia & BHL, but any link is
better than no link
12. Recommendations
⢠Keep linking BHL titles from Wikipedia entries
â The rarer, the better
⢠Determine things weâve scanned that arenât widely held
â The more useful & more cited, the better
⢠Link authors & other creators
⢠Keep linking charismatic organisms
⢠BHL should encourage the GLAM wiki (Galleries,
Libraries, Archives, Museums) folks & other
interested parties to focus on BHL content
⢠As you do research on Wikipedia, make links to
BHL <You, too, can help increase BHL traffic
