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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

3. Fluid
• Is used to indicate that other
substances are also found in these
compartments and that they
influence the water balance in and
between compartments.

4. Fluids
• 60% of an adult’s body weight
* 70 Kg adult male: 60% X 70= 42 Liters
• Infants = more water
• Elderly = less water
• More fat = ↓water
• More muscle = ↑water
• Infants and elderly - prone to fluid

8. Intracellular Fluid Compartment
• Includes all the water and electrolytes inside
the cells of the body.
• Contains high concentrations of:
– potassium,
– phosphate,
– magnesium and
– sulfate ions,
– along with most of the proteins in the body.
8
10. Extracellular Fluid Compartment
• Includes all the fluid outside the cells:
– interstitial fluid, plasma, lymph, secretions of glands, fluid within
subcompartments separated by epithelial membranes.
• Contains high concentrations of :
– sodium,
– chloride and

11. Extracellular Fluid Osmolality
• Osmolality
– Adding or • Decreased
removing water
osmolality
from a solution
changes this – Inhibits thirst and
ADH secretion
• Increased
osmolality
– Triggers thirst and
ADH secretion
11
13. Movement of Water Between Body
Fluid Compartments:
• HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE- pressure in the blood
vessels resulting from the weight of the water and
cardiac contraction
• OSMOTIC PRESSURE- pressure exerted by proteins
in plasma which pulls water into the circulatory
system

19. Water Gain
Water is gained from
three sources.
1) food (~700 ml/day)
2) drink – voluntarily
controlled
3) metabolic water (200
ml/day) --- produced as a
byproduct of aerobic
respiration
19
20. Routes of water loss
1) Urine – obligatory (unavoidable) and
physiologically regulated, minimum 400
ml/day
2) Feces -- obligatory water loss, ~200 ml/day
3) Breath – obligatory water loss, ~300
ml/day
4) Cutaneous evaporation -- obligatory
water loss, ~400 ml/day
5) Sweat – for releasing heat, varies
significantly

22. Regulation of Urine Concentration
and Volume
• Volume and composition depends on the
condition of the body.
• blood concentration = kidney produce urine.
– To eliminate solutes and conserve water – help to lower
blood concentration
• Blood concentration = kidney produce urine
– Water is lost, solutes are conserved, blood
concentration increases.
22
23. Regulation of Water Output
- The only physiological
control is through variations in
urine volume.
- urine volume regulated by
hormones
23
24. Water Content Regulation

PRESSURE
CONC.

26
27. 1. ANTIDIURETIC HORMONE
(ADH)
• ADH
– permeability to water of the kidney
= more water is reabsorbed
= CONCENTRATED URINE
• ADH
– Kidney is less permeable to water
= DILUTED URINE
27
29. 2. ATRIAL NATRIURETIC
FACTOR
• Secreted by the cells in the RIGHT ATRIUM
when the BP in the RA is

kidney

31
33. 4. RENIN AND ANGIOTENSIN
• FUNCTION: regulate aldosterone
secretion
• RENIN secreted by the cells in the
juxtaglomerular apparatus in the kidney.
– An enzyme that acts on proteins produce by
liver
33
34. RENIN AND ANGIOTENSIN
– Liver: In the protein, certain amino acids are
removed leaving ANGIOTENSIN I.
– ANGIOTENSIN I is rapidly converted into
smaller peptide called ANGIOTENSIN II.
– ANGIOTENSIN II acts on the adrenal gland
causing it to secrete
ALDOSTERONE!!!

2) reduced capillary reabsorption,
or
3) obstructed lymphatic drainage
37
38. ELECTROLYTE BALANCE
HORMONE REGULATION:
Insulin and Epinephrine = cause K+ and phosphate to move from
extracellular fluid into cells
Parathyroid hormone = cause Ca++ and phosphate to move from bone to
extracellular fluid
Calcitonin = moves calcium to bones
38

extracellular fluid results from sodium ions and the
negative ions associated with them.
• Recommended dietary intake is less than 2.5 grams
per day.
• Kidneys provide the major route by which the excess
sodium ions are excreted. 44
45. SODIUM (Na)

126. Renal Control of pH
3. The kidneys can neutralize more acid
or base than both the respiratory
system and chemical buffers.
a. Renal tubules secrete
hydrogen ions into the tubular fluid,
where most of it combines with
bicarbonate, ammonia, and
phosphate buffers.
b. Bound and free H+ are then
excreted in urine.

127. • The kidneys are the only organs
that actually expel H+ from the
body. Other buffering systems
only reduce its concentration by
binding it to another chemical.
3. Tubular secretion of H+ continues
as long as a sufficient
concentration gradient exists
between the tubule cells and the
tubular fluid.

128. Disorders of Acid-Base Balance
Acidosis: < pH 7.35 , Alkalosis: > pH 7.45
- Mild acidosis
depresses CNS, causing
confusion, disorientation, and coma.
- Mild alkalosis
CNS becomes hyperexcitable.
Nerves fire spontaneously and overstimulate
skeletal muscles.
- Severe acidosis or alkalosis is lethal.

Respiratory acidosis / alkalosis
- caused by hypoventilation or hyperventilation

Editor's Notes
Sequence An action potential arrives at the presynpatic terminal causing Ca2+ channels to open, increasing the Ca2+ permeability of the presynpatic terminal. Calcium ions enter the presynpatic terminal and initiate the release of a neruotransmitter, acetylcholine (Ach), from synaptic vesicle into the presynaptic cleft. Diffusion of Ach across the synaptic cleft and binding of Ach to its receptors on the postsynaptic muscle fiber membrane opens Na+ channels and increases the permeability of the postsynaptic membrane to Na+ The increase in Na+ permeability results in depolarization of the postsynaptic membrane; once threshold has been reached a postsynaptic action potential results.
