The document discusses implementing full-text search in SQL Server. It covers the history and editions of full-text search, what can be done with full-text search, the architecture and components, setup steps, and how to upgrade from earlier versions. The presentation also demonstrates full-text search from both a DBA and developer perspective.

Sql Saturday 111 Atlanta applied enterprise semantic miningMark Tabladillo
SQL Server 2012 debuts a new Semantic Platform (commonly known as the applied task, Semantic Search). This text mining technology leverages the already established Full Text Index, and builds semantic indexes in a two-phase process. This presentation provides a science description and demo for the Enterprise implementation of Tag Index and Document Similarity Index. At present (RTM), the indexes work for 15 languages. Included are strategy tips for how to best leverage the technology along with already-existing Microsoft text mining and data mining.
Applied Semantic Search with Microsoft SQL ServerMark Tabladillo
Text mining is projected to dominate data mining, and the reasons are evident: we have more text available than numeric data. Microsoft introduced a new technology to SQL Server 2012 called Semantic Search. This session's detailed description and demos give you important information for the enterprise implementation of Tag Index and Document Similarity Index. The demos include a web-based Silverlight application, and content documents from Wikipedia. We'll also look at strategy tips for how to best leverage the new semantic technology with existing Microsoft data mining.
If you have a SQL Server license (Standard or higher) then you already have the ability to start data mining. In this new presentation, you will see how to scale up data mining from the free Excel 2013 add-in to production use. Aimed at beginning to intermediate data miners, this presentation will show how mining models move from development to production. We will use SQL Server 2012 tools including SSMS, SSIS, and SSDT.

RAPID - Building a highly usable API Design language with XTextTed Epstein
The challenge: Create a highly readable, user-friendly design language for REST APIs, suitable for use by cross-functional enterprise teams.
The toolkit: XText language framework for Eclipse IDE.
The result: RAPID -- the Resource API Design language, used in RepreZen API Studio.
In this presentation, RepreZen's Tanya Fesenko and Ted Epstein show why they decided to create a new API language in this already crowded space, and how they differentiated by raising the bar on usability. This presentation demonstrates to XText language developers some of the techniques required to build this kind of language.
RepreZen DSL: Pushing the limits of language usability with XTextTatiana Tanya Fesenko
Many DSLs are convenient alternatives to hand-coding or generic data formats. Others are unique in their solution space, providing the best way, sometimes the only way, to describe a particular model or program.
But what about DSLs that have to compete with other languages? When language readability, extensibility, and efficiency of expression are key to the success of your product, what language design ideas can we bring to the table, and what techniques will make them work in XText?
RepreZen is an Eclipse-based API design environment, with its own DSL to describe REST APIs and supporting data types. As a new entry in the competitive and rapidly evolving API design space, it wasn't enough to offer new capabilities; we needed to raise the already high bar of usability set by other API description languages. And we needed to streamline the DSL design process for fast evolution, adding new language constructs with each beta release.
In this talk, we'll explain our language design goals, and show how we implemented some especially challenging language features, including:
* Use of a generic meta-syntax to formalize grammatical patterns in the DSL, enabling greater consistency and more centralized logic for formatting, syntax highlighting, code assist, etc. Language extensibility and platform portability are also benefits of this DSL design pattern.
* Optional fluency, which accommodates concise or fluent coding styles, according to the user's preference, through the use of optional keywords.
* Indent-based block scoping in XText, similar to YAML or Python.
* Flexible sequencing of language constructs for improved usability, with an option to automate canonical ordering for consistency across models.

Brief look at data segmenting decisions and use of Semantic Web technologies within Anzo. Presented at the 2011 W3C Linked Enterprise Data Patterns workshop.
Developer practices for traditional and agile Java development are well understood and documented. But dynamic languages (Groovy, Ruby, and others) change the ground rules. Many of the common practices, refactoring techniques, and design patterns we have been taught either no longer apply or should be applied differently and some new techniques also come into play. In this talk, we'll relearn practices needed for dynamic languages. Along the way we will look at typing, design patterns,
refactoring, functional style, SOLID principles revisited and more.

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.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
