How Android is different from other systems – An exploration of the design de...IndicThreads
“Google’s Android is a brand new platform for mobile phones, and has been created from scratch specifically for this purpose. This means that it is a ‘modern’ system that does not suffer from any legacy issues, and has taken the best ideas from various other projects to build a system that is arguably better than any of the other, competing, systems. Thus, for example, it uses the Java language as the development language, but has rejected the rest of the Java ecosystem. Specifically it uses a completely new virtual machine (Dalvik) which is redesigned with mobiles in mind – and has a number of very interesting design decisions that we will discuss. Similarly, the Android application framework represents a departure from the traditional way of doing things, and has a learning curve, but once you get used to it, it is great, especially for allowing different apps to share data, code, and in general co-operate. We will explore and discuss this and various other design decisions in Android. This talk can serve as your introduction to “”What is Android”", and more importantly, “”Why is Android”"
Presentation on how to use Flash for Blackberry,iPhone and Android. http://www.mindgrub.com/NAB

Anjelica Cicilia gaf een presentatie aan de groep Dutch Architecture PR (PR Stammtisch) bestaande uit PR en Marketing medewerkers van diverse architectenbureau's over het thema ‘Bedrijfsprofilering en Marketingstrategieën’.
Ziet u kansen in de Rotterdamse binnenstad die anderen laten liggen? Heeft u behoefte aan specifieke kennis op het gebied van gebiedsontwikkeling? Wilt u dat uw project succesvol is? Heeft u kwesties waar u niet uit komt en bent u op zoek naar een ‘second opinion’? Bent u terughoudend met ontwikkelen omdat het crisis is? Vind u dat er iets gedaan moet worden aan leegstand in de Rotterdamse binnenstad? Heeft u ideeën voor dat ene braakliggende terrein?
Wij zijn een groep 3e jaar Hogeschool ROP studenten en zijn in opdracht van het adviesbureau in Stedelijk Ontwikkeling by-AMR bezig met het ontwikkelen van een platform voor bouwinitiatieven in Rotterdam. Dit voorlopig onder de werknaam Initiatief Platform Rotterdam (IPR).
Aanleidingen voor dit initiatief zijn de vele vastgelopen en uitgestelde bouwprojecten. Wij willen partijen met elkaar in contact brengen die nog wel mogelijkheden zien in het verder brengen of ondersteunen van een bepaalde ontwikkeling. Het onafhankelijk platform heeft als doel die partijen te verbinden rondom de thema’s ruimtelijke initiatieven, vastgelopen/uitgestelde projecten, gebiedsontwikkeling, leegstaand vastgoed en kansen in de stad. IPR biedt u de mogelijkheid om deze thema’s met relevante partijen te bespreken, te vergelijken en tot actie te komen door concrete oplossingen aan te dragen en samen te werken aan een project. Het is bedoeld voor een breed scala aan partijen die bezig zijn met de gebouwde omgeving; van makelaars tot woningcorporaties en van architecten tot ontwikkelaars en beleggingsmaatschappijen. Het platform heeft als doel ‘problemen te signaleren’ en ‘kansen te ontdekken’. Momenteel zijn we bezig met het verder vormgeven en inrichten van IPR en zijn we hard op zoek naar pilotprojecten. Doelstelling is om een online digitale kaart te ontwikkelen waarin de projecten worden opgenomen en partijen zich kunnen aanmelden om met elkaar in contact te komen. Hiervoor hebben we ook uw hulp nodig. U kunt partner worden van dit initiatief door relevante projecten aan te dragen. Geïnteresseerd? Stuur ons dan een bericht over uw ‘probleem’ project in Rotterdam.
Grijp uw kans en doe vrijblijvend mee aan deze nieuwe manier van ontwikkelen.

DevOps and Testing slides at DASA ConnectKari Kakkonen
My and Rik Marselis slides at 30.5.2024 DASA Connect conference. We discuss about what is testing, then what is agile testing and finally what is Testing in DevOps. Finally we had lovely workshop with the participants trying to find out different ways to think about quality and testing in different parts of the DevOps infinity loop.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
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.

the same APIs and run on the same run time
executable
• All apps have APIs for hardware access,
location-based services, support for background
services, map-based activities, 2D and 3D
graphics.
• App Widgets are miniature app views that can
be embedded in other apps like Home Screen
13. App Priority and Processes
Android apps do not have control over their own
life cycles
Aggressively manages resources to ensure device
responsiveness and kills process/apps when
needed
•
•
•
•
•
Active Process – critical priority
Visible Process – high priority
Started Service Process
Background Process – low priority
Empty process
14. Client apps

bundled by Android Asset Packaging tool
(AAPT) into Android package or .apk
• All applications have Android Manifest file in its
root directory
– provides essential information about app
• Could be installed directly on phone, but
necessary to be distributed thru Market
15. Web Apps

have trackball, apps using trackball will be filtered out)
• Every app publishes a list of components the app will access and
permissions need to be granted before installation
• Apps installed on device and SD card (SD Card from Froyo)
18. Search
