Adapting a not OSGi framework to OSGi based architectures is often a common need which needs to be managed together with other concerns like backward compatibility, multiple components packaging, evolution and flexibility.
Handling such needs can be tricky because of possible hurdles related to different class loading models, fine grained dependency management, semantic versioning, etc.
This talk deals with a real life use case of adapting a not OSGi ready framework like Apache UIMA (http://uima.apache.org) to a fully OSGi based architecture for the Apache Clerezza project (http://incubator.apache.org/clerezza) highlighting how the different class loading mechanisms (not OSGI vs OSGi) can be handled and adapted and how the two frameworks can be integrated leveraging the OSGi capabilities and still maintaing backward compatibility, flexibility, etc..

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.
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.

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).

venerdì 16 aprile 2010
2. Use Cases - Agenda
UC1 : Real Estatate market analysis
UC2 : Tenders automatic information
extraction
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
3. UC1 : Source
An online announcement site for sellers and
buyers
Wide purpose (cars, RE, hi-fi, etc...)
Local scope (Rome and nearby)
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
4. UC1 - Goals
Are you looking for houses?
A specified subcategory of the site is dedicated to
real estate
I would like to monitor Rome real estate market to
Take smart decisions
Predict how things will go in the (near) future
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
6. UC1 - Goals
I want to build a separate web application to
monitor such estate listings
I have to use a crawler to automatically
download selected pages periodically from the
source
Estate listings text is unstructered
I want to make aggregate queries on structured
information
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
7. UC1 - Information
Extraction
I have to write an information extraction
engine to populate a relational schema DB
with structured information from free text
of estate listings
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
9. UC1 - Crawler
A specialized crawler extract data from the
source
Estate listings data are stored grouped by
zones in files on some directory on a
managed machine
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
10. UC1 - Crawler
Define navigation of the site using one XML
for each city zone
The crawler downloads page fragments two
times a week
The estate listings extracted free text is
saved on XML grouped by zone
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
13. UC1 - Crawler
Issues :
Enabled cookies
Some HTTP headers needed
Needed to put fixed sleeping intervals
between requests
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
14. UC1 - Domain
EstateListing (Announcement)
Zone
MagazineNumber (Uscita)
HouseStructure with properties
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
15. UC1 - Information
Extraction Engine
Goal : extract price, zone and telephone
number
The first version contained a specialized IE
engine which used huge regular expressions
Hard to maintain and unefficient
Extracting not so much information
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
16. UC1 - IE Engine
New requirement: extract also the structure
of the house
Number of rooms, box, garden(s), external
spaces, number of bathrooms, kitchen, etc...
Using again RegEx resulted to be hard to
maintain and unefficient
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
17. UC1 - IE Engine
Subsitute the RegEx based IE engine with a UIMA
based IE engine to:
exploit previous work (RegExs can live inside UIMA
too)
exploit existing components
be able to modify and enhanche IE rules easily
much more efficient
more information extracted
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
21. Sample text
“ven 26 Dic APPIA via grottaferrata metro 2
¡ piano assolato ingresso salone americana
cucina camera cameretta bagno soppalco
posto auto e 295.000”
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
22. UC1 - ContentAnnotator
From the XML produced by the crawler only
estate listings must be extracted
A simple parser to get each node containing
an estate listing (that in turn will be
unstructured)
Create a ContentAnnotation over the
document
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
30. UC1 - Consuming
extracted information
the previous version of the IE engine
produced (again) XMLs that needed to be
parsed to store structured data inside the
DB
with UIMA a CAS Consumer at the end of
the analysis pipeline can automatically put
extracted information on the DB
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
31. UC1 - Analyzing real
estate market data
a simple webapp written in Java with Spring
framework modules (Spring core, DAO, JDBC,
MVC) querying aggregate data on MySQL DB
enriched UI with JQuery
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
34. UC2 - Monitor of
tenders/announcements
Monitor various sources which provide
announcement and tenders to which people
and companies are interested can subscribe
We want to automate the long monitoring
process of such sources and also
automatically extract useful common
information from announcements’ text
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
40. UC2 - Crawling
Similar to UC1 Crawler but using a Firefox
plugin we can define navigation patterns for
pages of each source
We can also define metadata we see during
navigation that deliver information
Again an XML will be generated so that it
can be saved on a storage and executed
periodically
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
42. UC2 - Domain
annotations
Language Funding type
Abstract Geographic region
Activity Sector
Beneficiary Subject
Budget Title
Expiration date Tags
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
43. UC2 - Domain entities
First and most important is an entity that
represents the entire tender or
announcement
Annotations inside the domain will finally fill
such entity properties
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
45. UC2 - Simple first
Each annotator first looks:
if some metadata was extracted during navigation
for the most common pattern for defining
information inside such announcements
i.e.: “Budget: 200000$” or “Financial information: ......”
Such patterns are language independent (although
this is often not true)
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
46. UC2 - AbstractAnnotator
The abstract is usually in the first part of the
document
We use Tokenizer and Tagger to get Tokens (with
PoS tags) and Sentences
We use Dictionary to provide a list of “good”
words
We look in the first sentences of the document
looking for objectives of the announcement
(mixing good words and regular expressions)
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
47. UC2 -
ExpirationDateAnnotator
A DateAnnotator is executed before
Iterate over DateAnnotations
Get sentences wrapping such DateAnnotations
Check if some terms like “deadline” appear in
the same sentence of a DateAnnotation
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
53. Conclusions on IE
UC1 : simple and stable sentence patterns
UC2 : multi language, much more complex
and different sentence structures and
patterns
Fine grain metadata are very important
Need to play with NLP
Need to establish good test cases
venerdì 16 aprile 2010
