Overcoming the challenges of financial decisions with DMNJonathan L'Ecuyer
Abstract
This webinar explains how decision management and a decision model based approach can overcome many of the challenges of implementing compliance systems: aggressive deadlines, increasing complexity, inconsistent and ambiguous requirements, misunderstood data dependencies, constant change requests and the need for post hoc explanation and transparency. We illustrate the benefits of decision modeling using real examples from financial regulatory compliance.
This webinar covers:
What is the Decision Model and Notation (DMN), an open standard for modeling complex business decisions
Insights into how to automate and improve the transparency of your compliance implementations using DMN
How DMN enables a model-driven approach to compliance that reduces the needs for code development, lowers the risk of error and improves agility

Digitization affects almost everything in today's organizations, which makes capturing its benefits uniquely complex. However
1. Getting the engine in place to digitize at scale is uniquely complex as digital touches so many parts of an organization requiring unprecedented coordination of
People,
Processes, and
Technologies.
2. A strategy to increase revenue which generates the most value requires
A clear vision and plan for how to capture that value, and
Technologies and tools to digitize interactions with customers.
New capabilities and teams to manage and coordinate the delivery of those journeys across the organization.
3. With the average corporate life span falling for more than half a century(Standard & Poor’s data show it was 61 years in 1958, 25 years in 1980, and just 18 years in 2011) digitization is placing unprecedented pressure on organizations to evolve. That means digitally driven business model is crucial to survival.

The activity of using methods, skills and tools to understand user engagement with a website is called a UX Audit.
Even in case this was done at the time of website development, it could not have included future traffic behaviour or change in design trends and optimisation techniques.
Per this article on Forbes, every dollar invested in improving UX has multifold returns. Good design is just good business.
The workshop may be attended by Senior Level Executives and Project Managers with technical IT knowledge, concrete understanding of the corporate business strategies, who play a major role in modifying and implementing their business strategies to satisfy corporate needs and who have a strong collaboration with their top level managers.

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. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
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.
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.

Are you confident that your IT advisors are helping you exceed your business goals?
Are you satisfied in the way your company calculates ROIT (return on IT spend)?
Are you sure when a new product or service is developed, the TCO (Total cost of ownership) is
reduced, and the ROIT is improved?
Are you prepared to accelerate the business success by transforming into an omnichannel digital
enterprise, for a better long-term marketplace position?
I help companies answer those questions and achieve their goals. I have accreditations from Harvard
University (Cybersecurity: Managing Organization's Critical Business Systems, Networks, Data and Risk In
The IT Age), The Indian Institute of Technology (1 Year course in IT), an MBA from Madurai University,
India, Mini MBA in Healthcare from University of St. Thomas, MN. I am a recognized public speaker, an
author on Digital Transformation and Cybersecurity. I’m an experienced past board member for 3 for-
profit US companies and non-profit. 1) ArtSpace International, owned 25 Art galleries in GA; 2) Global
Rehabilitation, a healthcare company in MN; 3) EdTrainU.com - most mgmnt consultants are Ph.D.’s in
their specialty; Non-profit – RisingStar Outreach, and serving as a President at Plymouth Rotary.
My IT and business advisory processes have been honed over the past two decades across the globe in a

corporate growth, operations, P&L, and product management.
As a management consultant, I am supported by 2 proven global IT sourcing companies (610 +employees)
to achieve quantifiable results, and lessen the risk of working with unknown or newly hired vendors.
I am a unique business-minded IT professional...and a technology-minded business strategist who
advances projects and initiatives with an out of the box approach… I have observed that some
departments view their role as supporting the objectives of a cost center (overhead.)
I focus on: 1) Acquiring/developing cost-effective, business-appropriate technology, and
2) Using IT as a means to attract, keep, engage employees and customers... while generating sales,
increasing profitability and satisfied customers guided by the "Rotary 4-way test."
Achievements: P & L responsibility for TechVelocityPartners.com. Plus delivered three IT products with
time and revenue savings of 7 weeks and 18%. Designed and developed products and services, and aided
in creating new revenue channels that generated over 20 % of the annual revenues.

architectural recommendations for prevention in less than 4 weeks.
5. Set up offshore teams and offices for multiple clients resulting in shortened Product Development
Life-Cycle, 30 to 40% cost savings and improved communication between teams. Located and
interviewed the offshore partners to reduce cycle and delivery time. Facilitated C-level strategic
planning and discussions between the client and partners. Five engagements (on-demand staff
augmentation and projects outsourcing) closed with successful outcomes for both sides.
6. B2B e-commerce client: Provided input during strategy sessions. Assisted in preparing materials for
attracting investors from Europe. Prepared case studies to launch new revenue-generating channels.
7. EdTrainU, MN: Assisted in developing an 18-month strategy; activities related to website and business
launch. Fine-tuned sales, marketing offerings, client intake process, procurement and contract
lifecycle review, board development and outsourcing specific programs aligned with the business
plan. All this resulted in the successful launch of the business and the multiple portals.
8. Media Conglomerate: 120+ Print, Radio and TV channels reaching 50M+ Americans weekly. Reduced
regression testing from 10+ hours, with 6 to 8 team members, to under one hour by cutting-edge
