The document discusses the logical structure and partitioning of hard disks. It explains that the hard disk can be divided into logical partitions beyond its physical structure. This allows an operating system to access different sections of the hard disk as separate drives. There are two types of partitions - primary partitions that can directly contain an operating system, and extended partitions that allow creating additional logical drives beyond the 4 primary limit. Partitioning provides benefits like organizing data from multiple users, installing multiple operating systems, improving storage efficiency, and increasing data security through backups.
Disk partitioning or disk slicing is the creation of one or more regions on secondary storage, so that each region can be managed separately.

This is a ppt presentation that provide you to information about the hard drive partitions, it also provide a knowledge about the hard drive and multiple hard drive in a single computer.
Disk Management is a system utility for managing hard disks and the volumes, or partitions, that they contain.
Disk Management enables you to perform most disk-related tasks without shutting down the system or interrupting users; most configuration changes take effect immediately.
Simplified tasks and intuitive user interface. Disk Management is easy to use. Menus that are accessible from the right mouse button display the tasks you can perform on the selected object, and wizards guide you through creating partitions or volumes and initializing or converting disks.

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.
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.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, 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 benefit’s 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.

2. LOGICAL STRUCTURE OF A HARD DISC
The logical structure of a hard drive is composed of:
The Start-up sector (platter 0, track 0, sector 1)
contains the information about the partition (partition
descriptors) and the MBR (Master Boot Record), a small
start-up program.
The Partitioned space is the part of the hard drive that
has been assigned to any partition.
The Non-partitioted space hasn’t been assigned to any
partition, so it is not accesible nor usable.
gabriela-technoteacher.blogspot.com
3. WHAT ARE PARTITIONS?
Each hard disc is a physical unit.
Nevertheless, operating systems don’t work with physical
but with logic units.
Inside the physical entity of a hard drive, there can be
several logic units. Each of these logic units forms a hard
drive’s partition.
So we can divide a hard disk into, for instance, two
partitions (two logic units in the same physical unit), and we
will be able to work as if we had two hard drives.
gabriela-technoteacher.blogspot.com
4. There are two types of partitions:
Primary partitions active logic units that can contain an operating
system. In Windows, this unit is identified as C. The maximum number
of primary partitions in a hard drive is 4 or 3 + 1 extended partition.
Extended partitions logic units that can not contain operating
systems. A hard drive can contain a maximum of one extended
partition. In this partition, the user can create different logic units
that, in Windows, will be called D, E, F...
Primary partition
Extended partitions
Logic units
gabriela-technoteacher.blogspot.com
5.
If a hard drive has more than one primary partition, the
active one is the one in charge of starting up the
operating system when we turn on the computer.
All the rest of the primary partitions remain hidden, so
that nobody can access the data stored in them. Thus,
the only way to access such data is through the
operating system.
The extended partitions allow us to create as many logic
units as we one in addition to the four maximun
primaries.
gabriela-technoteacher.blogspot.com
6. Examples:
Hard disc of 500 GB with a single partition and some
non-partitioned, yet useless, space.
Disco duro con espacio particionado (2 particiones
primarias y 2 lógicas) y espacio todavía sin particionar.
Hard disc of 500 GB with 2 primary partitions and 2
logic units, plus some non-partitioned space.
gabriela-technoteacher.blogspot.com
7. The main reasons to create partitions are:
1) Management reasons In the case of computers that are shared
among several users, it can be useful to split the hard drive into
different logic units. This way, each user’s data will be better
organised and safer.
2) Installation of more than one operating system Each
operating system needs its own partition in order to work. For
example, if we want to have Linux and Windows in the same hard
disk, we will need two partitions at least.
3) Efficiency reasons The bigger a partition is, the most space of
such partition will be unused.
4) Security reasons If we normally work in a logic unit, we can
program our computer so that it creates backup copies the data into
a different logic unit. This way, we can make sure we don’t lose any
important information.
5) Maintenance reasons If we store all our personal files
(pictures, documents, music files…) in an individual logic unit, we
can format the rest of the units or change the operating system
without losing our information.
