Presentation at ECIPE Seminar "How to Accelerate the Expansion of the Digital Economy?" on 15th July. Quick overview of new trends in manufacturing and regulatory implications.
I made this presentation at the ECIPE Workshop: "Will 3D Printing change everything?" held on October 6th, 2015. It looks at sectoral disruption driven by adoption of 3D printing, while it also presents short-term regulatory aspects that will affect the diffusion of this technology. The presentation also provides a more general reflection on the wider economic and societal perspective surrounding the widespread adoption of 3D printing.

How GZIP compression works - JS Conf EU 2014Raul Fraile
Data compression is an amazing topic. Even in today’s world, with fast networks and almost unlimited storage, data compression is still relevant, especially for mobile devices and countries with poor Internet connections.
For better or worse, GZIP compression is the de-facto lossless compression method for compressing text data in websites. It is not the fastest nor the better, but provides an excellent tradeoff between speed and compression ratio. The way Internet works makes it also difficult to use newer compression methods.
This talk examines how GZIP works internally, explaining the internals of the DEFLATE algorithm, which is a combination of LZ77 and Huffman coding. Different implementations will be compared, such as GNU GZIP, 7-ZIP and zopfli, focusing on why and how some of these implementations perform better than others.
Finally, we will try to go beyond GZIP, preprocessing our data to achieve better results. For example, transposing JSON.

We have ethical responsibilities when coding. We’re able to extract remarkably precise intuitions about an individual. But do we have a right to know what they didn’t consent to share, even when they willingly shared the data that leads us there? A major retailer’s data-driven marketing accidentially revealed to a teen’s family that she was pregnant. Eek.
What are our obligations to people who did not expect themselves to be so intimately known without sharing directly? How do we mitigate against unintended outcomes? For instance, an activity tracker carelessly revealed users’ sexual activity data to search engines. A social network’s algorithm accidentally triggered painful memories for grieving families who’d recently experienced death of their child and other loved ones.
We design software for humans. Balancing human needs and business specs can be tough. It’s crucial that we learn how to build in systematic empathy.
In this talk, we'll delve into specific examples of uncritical programming, and painful results from using insightful data in ways that were benignly intended. You’ll learn ways we can integrate practices for examining how our code might harm individuals. We’ll look at how to flip the paradigm, netting consequences that can be better for everyone.

Advances in narrow artificial intelligence make possible agentive systems that do things directly for their users (like, say, an automatic pet feeder). They deliver on the promise of user-centered design, but present fresh challenges in understanding their unique promises and pitfalls. They challenge strategists and product owners to think in new ways, since they deliver value mostly when the user isn’t paying them any attention. Join Christopher Noessel of IBM as he introduces us to the concepts from his new book, "Designing Agentive Technology: AI That Works For People" (Rosenfeld Media, 2017). Attendees will learn what agentive technology is—and what it isn’t—and why it matters to businesses and consumers alike. You’ll leave understanding how agentive technology can be used to solve practical problems and what impacts its adoption may have on content professionals. And, you'll discover why we are increasingly moving from systems that help to systems that do. November 30, 2017

The slides cover Introduction to Big Data and Data Science, as well as go over our current and future projects @eHarmony.
eHarmony was founded to give people a better chance to find happy, passionate and fulfilling relationships.
During this talk I will describe steps that we go through to create Compatible matches and how we leverage Big Data technologies to accomplish that goal.
I will specifically talk on how we take Billion+ potential matches that we find through MongoDB, store them in Voldemort NoSQL datastore and then run multiple Hadoop jobs to come up with filtered list based on Machine Learned models.
Our hadoop clusters are in-house, high density, low power Seamicro installations and we use Spring Batch and Spring Data Hadoop to orchestrate the hadoop jobs.
Did you know that eHarmony is responsible for 5% of all new US marriages and that more than 600,000 people already got married through us?
Messaging Brokers are intrinsic part of our infrastructure and our experience with HornetQ has not been really great.
We have experienced issues that forced us to perform restarts multiple times a day and sometimes they weren't sufficient to fix the issue and data cleanup was needed resulting in loss of important messages.
Lack of documentation, lack of proper support and lack of stability of HornetQ broker are some of the reasons for looking into new Messaging Brokers.
During this session I will present the path we have taken to Prioritize Features -> Compare Brokers -> Eliminate -> Benchmark and the findings together with recommendations.
This task resulted in implementation of generic messaging broker benchmarking tool in Java, called Benchmark.io which we are intending to open source.

How can we make sure our choices won't harm others?
Stirring Emotions - Making the Human ConnectionFITCH
Emotions differentiate humans from other living things. They make us unpredictable, impulsive and endlessly interesting. When tapped in to, our emotions allow brands to connect in a more relevant way. It is a known fact that consumers are more likely to purchase when they connect emotionally to a brand. Brands and retailers need to translate this understanding of people into an enhanced brand experience which stirs emotions. Alasdair Lennox will discuss how to connect with consumers through distinctive experiences, and how these memorable moments build value for brands. He will also share a preview of Group XP’s 2017 Experience Index, which measures the value of brand experience.

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.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
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.
