The government is evolving to become more "open" due to trends in people, technology, and processes. Younger employees and citizens expect open tools and sharing of information. Technology advances have increased the need for speed in development and commoditization of software. However, government policies, regulations, and laws around procurement and intellectual property were designed for the industrial era and limit sharing of knowledge. The government has begun opening data and allowing open source software, but the acquisition process still favors proprietary approaches. Over time, as the workforce changes and technology continues to advance, the government will likely outsource more development and focus on services rather than owning specific technologies.

The City of Denver implemented Alfresco in 2009 to help consolidate content management systems and provide a central content repository for managing city contracts. With the help of Zia Consulting, an Alfresco Platinum Partner, Denver now uses Alfresco as the foundation to help streamline multiple city business processes and to communicate better with its citizens.
In the past 15 months, Denver has replaced it outdated contract records system, automated its procurement process, and extended its 311 service to the Web and mobile devices. Using Alfresco as the central content repository, Denver and Zia have integrated it with CRM systems, PeopleSoft Financials and Oracle ESB as well as built reusable Web services based on the CMIS content management standard.
Denver’s use of Alfresco is not limited to internal city processes. The City extended its 311 service from a call center service to include the Web and Mobile apps. Citizens can now download the 311 app from the Apple App Store and easily report non-emergency items to the city such as potholes or graffiti.

The Future of Mobile Testing: Hybrid Code, Business Intelligence, and Device ...TechWell
All organizations doing mobile development have critical decisions in common—selecting which devices to support and how to test their products across the growing range of devices. With the segregation of device brands, organizations are forced to support at least three code bases (Apple, Android, and Windows). This makes it three times more challenging for testing organizations to keep up with the minimum required testing efforts for their products. Ardy Signey says that test leadership has to look beyond conventional testing strategies and become more innovative. Companies that already have a customer base using their mobile applications can rely on solutions like Google analytics or HPE analyzer to help them narrow the scope of devices. It’s much more difficult for organizations just starting mobile development to determine what devices their target markets will use and how customers will use their applications. These organizations require more innovative solutions including hybrid code, business intelligence, and mobile device farms. Ardy helps you become more effective in planning a mobile test strategy for the future.

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).
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.
"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.

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.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.
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.

end
up?
3
things
not
to
do
in
public:
1. Sex
2. Math
3. Experimentation
ú Modern
software
built
this
way
ú Open
data
requires
maturity
and
public
education

Strategy
§ CIOs:
Focus
on
ú Increasing
enterprise
options
ú Enterprise

§ Educating
COTRs
§ Require
review
of

solutions
ú Already
a
req,
but
ignored
ú At

39. Key
Points
§ Open
Source
is
not
FREE
§ Must
(somehow)
fund
and
sponsor
development
to
keep
the
technology
fresh,
evolving
and
up-‐to-‐
date
§ Either
through
subscriptions
or
services
40. Software
is
a
Renewable
Civilian/Military
Resource
(and
we
paid
for
it)
§ Software
has
become
central
to
how
the
government
conducts
missions
§ For
reliance
on
software
to
be
a
strength,
the
government
must
pursue
an
active
strategy
to
manage
its
software
portfolio
and
foster
an
internal
culture
of
open
interfaces,
modularity
and
reuse

41. How
to
Build
a
Capability
Running Open Technology Development
Projects
Step 1: Determine reuse options
Step 2: Identify the Projects to be Established
Step 3: Choose and Apply a Common License
Step 4: Establish Governance
Step 5: Establish Collaboration
Step 6: Create Project Technical Direction
Step 7: Announcing
Continuously Review Steps 1-7
Rules of the Road:
1. Don’t Fork OSS Solely for Government
Use
2. Open Standards
3. Continuous Delivery
4. Simplify Intellectual Rights Management
42. OSS
Winning…
Its
just
not
evenly
distributed
(across
government)

Editor's Notes
Open source optionsOpen source software implementations creates options for the government:Don’t have to be locked into single technology vendor with forced license requirements (per seat, CPU, etc. )Open source can be a powerful negotiating point with vendors to decrease costs
