Marwari’s business men are known for their business acumen, adaptability to change with time and focus approached towards managing business is great source of inspiration and learning. People who think Marwari business approach is just a traditional way of doing business; I think Steel king Laxmi Naryan Mittal, Rahul Bajaj (aka hamara bajaj), Aditya Birla, Gautam Singhania, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala and many more names are enough to understand that their philosophy is working well on today’s modern era.
Learning from Marwari approach cannot be just restricted with doing business, it can be practised while managing the projects. Sharing couple of things
Transfer Switching with Breakers ... In Less Than 2 CyclesArjay Automation
A good transfer switch is able to transfer the load from an alternative source with zero or minimal loss of power. So far this can be achieved with static transfer switches, but the investment costs are substantial and there are technical limits due to the drastic short circuit constraints. For these reasons conventional medium voltage circuit breakers are still installed widely in power genera on plants and utilities.
Practical Issues of Combustion Oxygen Measurement Specifically Related to NOx...Arjay Automation
Power plants concerned with lowering NOx emissions are making tremendous changes to accommodate EPA regulatory requirements. A substantial number of these changes include the expansion and upgrade of the plant combustion oxygen measurement equipment. There is a striking relationship between the number of NOx reductions projects and the sales quantity of insitu oxygen detectors. The reason is that power plant betterment groups, operators, boiler manufacturers and engineering firms understand the direct relationship between NOx and excess air in the combustion process.
An area of daily practical importance to boiler operators and I&C teams are the common problems with insitu oxygen measurements. This paper focuses on the practical issues of combustion oxygen measurement as they relate to specifically to fuel usage and NOx emissions.

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:

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
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.
2. Introducing Homeless SMS
• Started early 2010, founded by Will Brayne (UK).

vulnerable population in developed countries.
• In 2011, we achieved a proof of concept.
• In 2012, we aim to pilot the service concept on a
greater scale.
6. Scale:
49
homeless day
centre (London)
3,673 450
recorded rough sleepers
in 2010, London number of supporting organisations (London)
400,000 17,000
hidden homeless (UK) homeless hostel beds (London)
7. Finance:
Cost created by one homeless person, based on actual cases (Crisis, UK)
£83,000
health services 48%
temporary accommodation 25%
police 17%
£15,000
temporary accommodation 46%

lives of London’s homeless
9. The experience of Mario
Mario is an illegal immigrant from Algeria being homeless for two years
10. A day of David
Daily routine and destinations of a rough sleeper in central London
11. Social relationships of Deepak and Jack
Social network of homeless persons established during their homelessness
12. Process of getting a bed at the shelter
First contact with information -> registered to agency -> referred to accommodation
Takes couple of days to several months depending on person
13. Shorten the duration of homelessness
The experience of homelessness is destructive for individual homeless and
very expensive for government.
Can a mobile service support this process quicker and cheaper?
16. Problem:
homeless people struggle
with finding services using

28. Beside of big supports some threatening
feedback I got…
“this idea cannot work because people
are not working in this way”
“even if we would like to implement this concept,
I have no clue how we spend our budget for this
project”
“giving a pitch to him is your mistake
because they might walk away with your idea”
29. 3.
Innovation from the outside of
institutions is believed, however
it is not a convention yet.
