A variety of perfluorocycloalkenyl (PFCA) arylether monomers and polymers with enchained triarylamineunits were successfully synthesized, characterized andreported here. These polymers are highly thermally stableand show variable thermal properties. Successful conver-sion of the newly synthesized TAA enchained perfluoro-cyclopentenyl (PFCP) aryl ether polymers via formylationand EAS demonstrates the synthetic versatility of TAAmoiety and provides an excellent option for applicationspecific post polymerization reactions. The cross-linkingbehavior of PFCP aryl ether polymers was studied underdifferent reaction conditions. The combination of pro-cessability, thermal stabilities, and tailorability makes thesepolymers suitable for a wide variety of applicationsincluding electro-optics, proton exchange membranes andsuper-hydrophobic applications.
Ultra low dielectric constant (k 1⁄4 1.53) materials with self-cleansing properties were synthesized via incorporation of fluorodecyl-polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (FD-POSS) into recently synthesized perfluorocyclopentenyl (PFCP) aryl ether polymers. Incorporation of fluorine rich, high free volume, and low surface energy POSS into a semifluorinated PFCP polymer matrix at various weight percentages resulted in a dramatic drop in dielectric constant, as well as a significant increase in hydrophobicity and oleophobicity of the system. These ultra-low dielectric self-cleansing materials (qtilt 1⁄4 38) were fabricated into electrospun mats from a solvent blend of fluorinated FD-POSS with PFCP polymers.

A unique class of aromatic ether polymers
containing perfluorocyclopentenyl (PFCP) enchainment was
prepared from the simple step growth polycondensation of
commercial bisphenols and octafluorocyclopentene (OFCP)
in the presence of triethylamine. Model studies indicate that
the second addition/elimination on OFCP is fast and poly-
condensation results in linear homopolymers and copolymers
without side products. The synthesis of bis(heptafluoro-
cyclopentenyl) aryl ether monomers and their condensation
with bisphenols further led to PFCP copolymers with alternating structures. This new class of semifluorinated polymers exhibit surprisingly high crystallinity in some cases and excellent thermal stability.

Detecting Drugs and Adverse Events from Spanish Health Social Media StreamsGrupo HULAT
Authors: Isabel Segura-Bedmar, Ricardo Revert, Paloma Martínez

Abstract: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that does drug and adverse event detection from Spanish posts collected from a health social media. First, we created a gold-standard corpus annotated with drugs and adverse events from social media. Then, Textalytics, a multilingual text analysis engine, was applied to identify drugs and possible adverse events. Overall recall and precision were 0.80 and 0.87 for drugs, and 0.56 and 0.85 for adverse events.

When it comes to the cloud, Gartner may have said it best:
“By 2020, a corporate ‘no-cloud’ policy will be as rare as a corporate ‘no-internet’ policy is today.”
If your organization is still skeptical of the cloud, now is the time to take a closer look. Faster implementation timelines and reduced maintenance costs are just two reasons why the cloud is becoming the standard across all industries.
In our webinar, we dispelled common concerns and explored the benefits of operating in the cloud. We also provided real-world examples of companies that have taken the leap and discovered just how much better business works in the cloud.

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.

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.

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!

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.
