Don’t like RDF Reification? Making Statements about Statements Using Singleto...Vinh Nguyen
Statements about RDF statements, or meta triples, provide additional information about individual triples, such as the source, the occuring time or place, or the certainty. Integrating such meta triples into semantic knowledge bases would enable the querying and reasoning mechanisms to be aware of provenance, time, location, or certainty of triples. How- ever, an efficient RDF representation for such meta knowledge of triples remains challenging. The existing reification approach allows such meta knowledge of RDF triples to be expressed using RDF by two steps. The first step is representing the triple by a Statement instance which has subject, predicate, and object indicated separately in three different triples. The second step is creating assertions about that instance as if it is a statement. While reification is simple and intuitive, this approach does not have formal semantics and is not commonly used in practice as described in the RDF Primer.
In this paper, we propose a novel approach called Singleton Property for representing meta triples and provide a for- mal semantics for it. We explain how this singleton property approach fits well with the existing syntax and formal semantics of RDF, and the syntax of SPARQL query lan- guage. We also demonstrate the use of singleton property in the representation and querying of meta knowledge in two examples of Semantic Web knowledge bases: YAGO2 and BKR. This approach, which is also simple and intuitive, can be easily adopted for representing and querying statements about statements in other knowledge bases.

Most information professionals already know: separation of content and presentation helps to manage and deliver complex information. This can only be done by using enriched structured content. Some call this intelligent content.
But why exactly is metadata per document (some call it "tagging") not enough?
Here is a very brief slide-deck, which explains the difference between the traditional approach and the graph-based approach to develop not only a metadata layer seperated from the content layer, but also a knowledge layer on top of it.
Hardware hacking hit the news quite often in 2017, and a lot of pentesters tried to jump into the band wagon and discover the joy of hacking things rather than servers or applications. But most of them are only looking for rootz shellz and p0wning embedded Linux operating systems rather than doing what we really call "hardware hacking". In this talk, we are going to hack a Bluetooth Low Energy smartlock, from its printed circuit board to a fully working exploit, as well as its (wait for it) associated mobile application you need to install to operate this thing.
This talk is not only an introduction into the field of hardware hacking, but also a good way to dive into electronics and its specific protocols, and of course into microcontrollers and System-on-chip reverse engineering. We will cover some electronics basic knowledge as well as tools and classic methodologies when it comes at analyzing an IoT device and will provide tips and tricks based on our experience but our failures too.
Code Examples: https://github.com/nolanerck/commandbox-vs-node
JavaScript is everywhere, and with that so is Node.js. Developers feel they have to have Node installed for a modern development workflow. Did you know that all the core features of Node now exist in a pure CFML workflow? Everything you’ve heard about from the JavaScript/Node world can be done with CommandBox! Package management, installing dependencies, command line tooling, flipping between run-time environments, automated build and testing processes are often mentioned as tasks made easier with Node. Modern CFML developers can have all of these same benefits without ever installing Node! It all can be done from CommandBox and this preso will show you how!
JavaOne 2015 : How I Rediscovered My Coding Mojo by Building an IoT/Robotics ...Mark West
Is your project dragging you down? Are you stuck with the same old technologies? Are you bored with coding? If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, you may have lost your coding mojo—just like this session’s speaker did a few years back. Come hear how he learned new technologies and rediscovered his coding mojo by building an IoT/robotics prototype: a voice-controlled robot. Along the way, you’ll hear about HTML5 speech recognition, controlling hardware with Node.js and Johnny-Five, using WebSocket and MQTT for communication between components, and finally how you can easily combine the Raspberry Pi and Arduino platforms to gain ultimate power over your own projects.

Modular JavaScript in an OSGi World - S Makmfrancis
What percentage of your web-app is written in JavaScript? Don’t be surprised if it’s more than half of your codebase. With the advent of HTML5 and single-page-applications driven by RESTful backends, the amount of JavaScript keeps growing. On the Java side, OSGi allows us to create modular, flexible applications. But how does this translate to the client-side? Isn’t a ‘single-page-application’ fundamentally at odds with modularity?
In this session we take a look at the currently available tools for modularity in JavaScript. There are several ways you can combine existing JavaScript module systems with OSGi-based development on the backend. We discuss tradeoffs between these different approaches based on real-world experience with large JavaScript front-ends and OSGi back-ends. In particular an example combining OSGi, RequireJS and AngularJS is presented. Along with practical advice based on current technology, we also look forward at relevant upcoming standards such as Web Components. After this session you’ll have a solid grasp of modular JavaScript development in an OSGi world.

As a Software as a Service (SaaS) development firm, most of work is done in the cloud, but some of our clients want an offline desktop version of their application. While HTML5 has techniques, which allow for offline use (i.e. App Cache and local Storage), these techniques have limitations and don’t always meet the need for a true offline application. This talk will discuss how to take your existing WebApp and build cross platform native desktop applications for Windows, OSX and Linux via node-webkit. We will also dive deep into node-webkit to show you how this is more than just a conversion tool; it expands application possibilities by packaging a live node.js server in every instance. A live step by step conversion of an existing WebApp will be demonstrated, insuring you understand every step needed to convert your own Web App into a native cross platform desktop application.

High Performance/Real-Time Web Applications can suffer from serial program execution, which can greatly decrease user experience, usability, application capabilities and overall performance. The new HTML5 WebWorker JavaScript API allows for multithreading in browser environment, which has removed serial code bottleneck that has always been an issue for processor intensive applications. Specifically at Game Theory Labs we were able to increase the performance of our application by 55% utilizing the techniques discussed. This meetup will show off the variations in the WebWorker API, associated overhead using the API, various WebWorker architectures (Inline vs External, Static vs Dynamic, Nested vs Shared) as well as implementing a 2-Tier Thread Management system that allows for generating child process outside of the main thread thereby increasing performance of handling/merging data between threads and the main application.
La charla propone hacer un recorrido y revisión de componentes y conceptos empleados en Zope que puedan ser empleados de forma independiente en otras aplicaciones, incluso que no sean web.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...James Anderson
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).

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:
