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!

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.

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.

4. HA1 - Technical File – Raster images. A raster image, also called a bitmap is a way to represent digital images. The raster image takes a wide variety of formats. A raster image represents an image in a series of bits of information which translate into pixels on the screen. These pixels form points of colour which create an overall finished image. When a raster image is created the image on the screen is converted into pixels and each pixel is assigned a specific value which determines its colour. When a raster image is viewed, the pixels usually smooth out visually for the user who sees a photograph or drawing, when blown up the pixels in a raster image become apparent. Depending on resolution, some raster images can be enlarged to very large sizes, while others quickly become difficult to see. The smaller the resolution, the smaller the digital image file, for this reason people who work with computer graphics must find a balance between resolution and image size. Resolution refers to the number of pixels per inch (PPI) or dots per inch (DPI) in the image. The higher the resolution the greater the number of pixels, this allows a greater radiation of colour that will translate better as the image is enlarged. The more pixels, the more individual points of data to be stored, as well. For high quality photography, a high DPI is preferred because the images will look more appealing to the viewer. For small images which do not need to be blown up, or when quality is not important, a low DPI can be used http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-raster-image.htm

7. Image Resolution Image resolution describes the detail an image holds. The term applies to raster digital images, film, images, and other different types of images. Higher resolution means more image detail. Image resolution can be measured in various ways. Basically resolution quantifies how close lines can be to each other and still be visibly removed. Resolution units can be tried to physical sizes to the overall size of the picture or to angular subtenant. Line pairs are often used instead of lines, a line pair compromises a dark line and an adjacent line. A resolution of ten lines per millimetre. Photographic lens and film resolution are most often quoted in line pairs per millimetre. Spatial Resolution: The measure of how closely lines can be resolved in an image is called spatial resolution, and it depends on properties of the system creating the image, not just the pixel resolution in pixels per inch. A classic test target used to determinate spatial resolution of imaging sensors and imaging sensors.
8. Aspect Ratio. The aspect ratio of an image is the ratio of the width of the image to its height, expressed as two numbers separated by a colon. That is for an x:y aspect ratio, no matter how big or small the image is, the width is divided into x units of equal length and the height is measured using the same length unit, the height will be measured to be y units. Aspect ratios are mathematically expressed as x:y and Xxy with the letter particularly used for pixel dimensions. Cinematographic aspect ratios are usually denoted as a decimal multiple of width vs. unit height. The most common aspect ratios used today in the presentation of films in movie theatres are 1.85:1 and 2.39:1 5 common aspect ratios:
9. File Formats A file format is a particular way in which information is encoded for storage in a computer file. GIF is a file format that should not really be used for prepress, it is far more suited for web design or to exchange images through e-mail or newsgroups. The JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF) is an image file format standard. It is a format for exchanging JPEG encoded files compliant with the JPEG interchange format ( JIF ) standard. It solves some of JIF' s limitations in regard to simple JPEG encoded file interchange. TIFF or the Tagged Image File Format is a file format that is strictly used for bitmap data. TIFF files don’t contain text or vector data, even though the file format theoretically would permit additional tags to handle such data EPS or Encapsulated PostScript is a standard graphics file format for exchanging images, drawings (such as a logo or map) or even layouts of complete pages. PSD is a proprietary file format used to create and edit images in Adobe Photoshop. It is a widely accepted format as it supports all available image types – Bitmap, RGB, Duotone, Gray scale, Indexed Color, CMYK, Lab, and Multichannel. Portable Document Format ( PDF ) is an open standard for document exchange. This file format, created by adobe systems in 1993, is used for representing documents in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems.
10. Color models. A color model is am abstract mathematical model by describing the way colours can represented as tuples of numbers, typically as three or four values or colour components. When the model is associated with a precise description of how the components are to be interpreted. RGB Color Model Recognizing that the geometry of the RGB model is poorly aligned with the color-making attributes recognized by human vision, computer graphics researchers developed two alternate representations of RGB, HSV and HSL. HSV and HSL improve on the color cube representation of RGB by arranging colors of each hue in a radial slice, around a central axis of neutral colors which ranges from black at the bottom to white at the top. The fully saturated colors of each hue then lie in a circle, a colour wheel. CMYK Colour Model The CMYK color model ( process color , four color ) is a subtractive colour model used in colour printing, and is also used to describe the printing process itself. CMYK refers to the four inks used in some color printing: cyan , magenta , yellow , and k ey (black). Color printing typically uses ink of four colors: cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black
11. Adobe Photoshop Adobe photoshop is a graphics editing program developed and published by Adobe Systems incorporated. Adobe Photoshop is released in two editions: Adobe Photoshop , and Adobe Photoshop Extended , with the Extended having extra 3D image creation, motion graphics editing, and advanced image analysis features. Features Photoshop uses color models RGB, lab, CMYK, greyscale, binary bitmap, and duotone. Photoshop has the ability to read and write raster and vector image formats such as .EPS, .PING, .GIF, and .JPEG. Photoshop has ties with other Adobe software for media editing, animation, and authoring. Photoshop has ties with other Adobe software for media editing, animation, and authoring.
12. Adobe Illustrator Adobe Illustrator is a vector graphics editor developed and marketed Adobe Systems. Illustrator is similar in scope, intended market, and functionality to its competitors, Corel Draw and Macromedia Free Hand. Among the new features included in Illustrator CS2 were Live Trace, Live Paint, a control palette and custom workspaces. Live Trace allows for the conversion of bitmap imagery into vector art and improved upon the previous tracing abilities. Live Paint allows users more flexibility in applying color to objects, specifically those that overlap. In the same year as the CS2 release, Adobe Systems announced an agreement to acquire Macromedia in a stock swap valued at about $3.4 billion and it integrated the companies' operations, networks, and customer-care organizations shortly thereafter. Adobe now owned FreeHand along with the entire Macromedia product line and in 2007, Adobe announced that it would discontinue development and updates to the FreeHand program. Instead, Adobe would provide tools and support to ease the transition to Illustrator. Features
13. Adobe Indesign Adobe InDesign is a software application produced by Adobe Systems. It can be used to create works such as posters, flyers, brochures, magazines, newspapers and books. In conjunction with Adobe Digital Publishing Suite InDesign can publish content suitable for tablet devices. Graphic designers and production artists are the principal users, creating and laying out periodical publications, posters, and print media. It also supports export to EPUB and SWF formats to create digital publications, and content suitable for consumption on tablet computer devices. The Adobe in copy word processor uses the same formatting engine as InDesign.
