KubeCon EU 2016: ChatOps and Automatic Deployment on KubernetesKubeAcademy
ChatOps is a term often credited to GitHub, and it is all about putting the tools in the middle of the conversations. At Unacast, most of our conversations go through Slack. When we integrated ChatOps into our workflow, we got the tools closer to the conversation.
We are using a version of GitHub Flow for our development process. That means all new features goes in a branch, someone opens a pull request and we merge continuously from master into the feature branch. When we have something that is ready to deploy to a server we trigger a deploy of the branch to a test environment. When the new feature gets verified it gets deployed to production, gets verified again, and then merged back into master. This workflow enables us to maintain a clean master branch so we can roll back in case something fails.
Sched Link: http://sched.co/67c1
RINEX is the Rwanda Internet Exchange that is managed by RICTA. They approached content delivery network Akamai in 2013 about caching Akamai's content at RINEX to improve speeds for users in Rwanda. However, financing the transit link to bring Akamai's content was a challenge. The solution was for RINEX to officially manage the Akamai cluster hosted within one of RINEX's peering ISPs. This ISP would provide the lowest price per megabit of cache and only distribute Akamai content through RINEX. As a result, RINEX's traffic and value increased while keeping its peering model, end user experience improved, and ISPs shared the costs

Bart van der Sloot joined FiberRing as Managing Director in April 2014, with the objectives to further grow and enhance the footprint, quality and business of FiberRing’s 2 Tbps global IP network, covering over 50 locations on 3 continents. From 1999 to 2013 Bart worked at Global Crossing (acquired by Level 3 in 2011), where he developed staffing, systems and business processes for Global Crossing’s European brand new sales team, built and coached a Wholesale Sales team to sign new telecom customers and grow revenues in various countries across Europe, led Global Crossing’s expansion into Central and Eastern Europe and established Level 3’s position in the Benelux broadcast market.
Samer Abdel-Hafez joined the FiberRing network team in December 2013 as Network Design Engineer. Samer’s responsibilities within the team include planning capacity for the large traffic volume of FiberRing, arranging interconnections in new locations and markets, designing advanced ad-hoc solutions for the FiberRing network and customers and advise the Network support team on day to day issues.
Abstract: FiberRing operates one of the largest content networks in the world, peaking at over 2 Tb/s. In order to facilitate troubleshooting, detect attacks and saving important data as router configurations, we implement a series of tools mostly implemented in house or open source.
The key point of this presentation is to describe how FiberRing is using these tools for:
monitoring: FiberRing makes extensive use of Opsview (Nagios) and NMIS. We utilise Opsview for alerts and reporting and NMIS for detailed traffic analysis.
capacity planning: FiberRing choose PMACCT as netflow collector software and implemented an in house front-end solution that helps us locate strategic peering partners and explore ways to reduce the costs to deliver our content.
DDOS attacks detection: As every large hosting provider, we are regularly target of DDoS attacks. We implement a set of linux boxes running running nfcapd to collect traffic flows with 1 minute/per host granularity. This gives us great flexibility and incredibly valuable data to quick detect attacks and take corrective actions.
routers’ configuration backups: FiberRing is actively involved in the development of Oxidized, an innovative configuration backup tool which poses itself as rancid replacement.

Presented by Dan Harabagiu, Head of Platform Development, ProSiebenSat.1
At ProSiebenSat.1, we set out to build and Single Sign On service (or SSO), a web service that provides the user with the ability to easily login and be recognised across multiple web platforms and digital assets. We decided to build the solution in-house, and chose MongoDB for the project. In this session we’ll discuss why we chose to use the MEAN stack for our SSO, how we adjusted and re-adjusted our data models for optimum performance and how and why we decided to create a sharded environment to achieve 520,000 requests per minute.
While little discussed, there is a solid case in placing some VNFs at the edge of the network, but this notion implies a distributed model that VNFs were not originally created to address. One of the problems in placing VNFs at the network edge is that the edge equipment may be very cost sensitive and in many cases, consumer grade.
These consumer-grade devices cannot support a virtual container such as a KVM because of the huge memory requirements of an additional OS. A Docker container has been proposed and implemented with great success.

Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants.

Rainfall intensity duration frequency curve statistical analysis and modeling...bijceesjournal
Using data from 41 years in Patna’ India’ the study’s goal is to analyze the trends of how often it rains on a weekly, seasonal, and annual basis (1981−2020). First, utilizing the intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curve and the relationship by statistically analyzing rainfall’ the historical rainfall data set for Patna’ India’ during a 41 year period (1981−2020), was evaluated for its quality. Changes in the hydrologic cycle as a result of increased greenhouse gas emissions are expected to induce variations in the intensity, length, and frequency of precipitation events. One strategy to lessen vulnerability is to quantify probable changes and adapt to them. Techniques such as log-normal, normal, and Gumbel are used (EV-I). Distributions were created with durations of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 24 h and return times of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 100 years. There were also mathematical correlations discovered between rainfall and recurrence interval.
Findings: Based on findings, the Gumbel approach produced the highest intensity values, whereas the other approaches produced values that were close to each other. The data indicates that 461.9 mm of rain fell during the monsoon season’s 301st week. However, it was found that the 29th week had the greatest average rainfall, 92.6 mm. With 952.6 mm on average, the monsoon season saw the highest rainfall. Calculations revealed that the yearly rainfall averaged 1171.1 mm. Using Weibull’s method, the study was subsequently expanded to examine rainfall distribution at different recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, and 25 years. Rainfall and recurrence interval mathematical correlations were also developed. Further regression analysis revealed that short wave irrigation, wind direction, wind speed, pressure, relative humidity, and temperature all had a substantial influence on rainfall.
Originality and value: The results of the rainfall IDF curves can provide useful information to policymakers in making appropriate decisions in managing and minimizing floods in the study area.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
Prediction of Electrical Energy Efficiency Using Information on Consumer's Ac...PriyankaKilaniya
Energy efficiency has been important since the latter part of the last century. The main object of this survey is to determine the energy efficiency knowledge among consumers. Two separate districts in Bangladesh are selected to conduct the survey on households and showrooms about the energy and seller also. The survey uses the data to find some regression equations from which it is easy to predict energy efficiency knowledge. The data is analyzed and calculated based on five important criteria. The initial target was to find some factors that help predict a person's energy efficiency knowledge. From the survey, it is found that the energy efficiency awareness among the people of our country is very low. Relationships between household energy use behaviors are estimated using a unique dataset of about 40 households and 20 showrooms in Bangladesh's Chapainawabganj and Bagerhat districts. Knowledge of energy consumption and energy efficiency technology options is found to be associated with household use of energy conservation practices. Household characteristics also influence household energy use behavior. Younger household cohorts are more likely to adopt energy-efficient technologies and energy conservation practices and place primary importance on energy saving for environmental reasons. Education also influences attitudes toward energy conservation in Bangladesh. Low-education households indicate they primarily save electricity for the environment while high-education households indicate they are motivated by environmental concerns.

Gas agency management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The project entitled "Gas Agency" is done to make the manual process easier by making it a computerized system for billing and maintaining stock. The Gas Agencies get the order request through phone calls or by personal from their customers and deliver the gas cylinders to their address based on their demand and previous delivery date. This process is made computerized and the customer's name, address and stock details are stored in a database. Based on this the billing for a customer is made simple and easier, since a customer order for gas can be accepted only after completing a certain period from the previous delivery. This can be calculated and billed easily through this. There are two types of delivery like domestic purpose use delivery and commercial purpose use delivery. The bill rate and capacity differs for both. This can be easily maintained and charged accordingly.
