This document discusses the vision, hype and reality of delivering IT services as computing utilities. It outlines the need for a market oriented cloud architecture to regulate supply and demand of cloud resources. Emerging cloud platforms like Amazon EC2, Google App Engine, Microsoft Live Mesh and Sun Grid are presented. The limitations of present cloud service providers are discussed. Finally, the concept of a Global Cloud Exchange is proposed to address these limitations through features like a market directory, banking system, brokers and price setting mechanisms.

Synchronization in distributed computingSVijaylakshmi
Synchronization in distributed systems is achieved via clocks. The physical clocks are used to adjust the time of nodes. Each node in the system can share its local time with other nodes in the system. The time is set based on UTC (Universal Time Coordination).

Social Cloud: Cloud Computing in Social NetworksSimon Caton
With the increasingly ubiquitous nature of Social networks and Cloud computing, users are starting to explore new ways to interact with, and exploit these developing paradigms. Social networks are used to reflect real world relationships that allow users to share information and form connections between one another, essentially creating dynamic Virtual Organizations. We propose leveraging the pre-established trust formed through friend relationships within a Social network to form a dynamic “Social Cloud”, enabling friends to share resources within the context of a Social network. We believe that combining trust relationships with suitable incentive mechanisms (through financial payments or bartering) could provide much more sustainable resource sharing mechanisms. This paper outlines our vision of, and experiences with, creating a Social Storage Cloud, looking specifically at possible market mechanisms that could be used to create a dynamic Cloud infrastructure in a Social network environment.

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.
"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.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

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.
3. Introduction
“As of now, computer networks are still in their infancy, but as
they grow up and become sophisticated, we will probably see
the spread of ‘computer utilities’ which, like present electric
and telephone utilities, will service individual homes and
offices across the country.”
Leonard Kleinrock
5. Cloud
"A Cloud is a type of parallel and distributed
system consisting of a collection of interconnected
and virtualised computers that are dynamically
provisioned and presented as one or more unified
computing resources based on service-level
agreements established through negotiation
between the service provider and consumers.”
6. Market Oriented Cloud Architecture
• Need
– Consumers will require different QoS to be
maintained by their providers.
– Providers will need to consider and meet different
QoS parameter of each individual consumer
– So market oriented resource management is
necessary to regulate the supply and demand
cloud resources at market equilibrium.
8. Market Oriented Cloud Architecture
• Users/Brokers :
– Submit service request from any where in the
world.
• SLA Resource Allocator :
– Interface between cloud provider and users.

• Consumers are restricted to offering from a
single provider at a time
• Unable to swap one provider for another
• No standard interface

Editor's Notes
Explane to get electrical power in home ………………………….
Explane notes
As consumers rely on Cloud providers to supply alltheir computing needs, they will require specific QoSto be maintained by their providers in order to meettheir objectives and sustain their operations. Cloudproviders will need to consider and meet different QoSparameters of each individual consumer as negotiatedin specific SLAs. To achieve this, Cloud providers canno longer continue to deploy traditional system-centricresource management architecture that do not provideincentives for them to share their resources and stillregard all service requests to be of equal importance.Instead, market-oriented resource management [7] isnecessary to regulate the supply and demand of Cloudresources at market equilibrium, provide feedback interms of economic incentives for both Cloudconsumers and providers, and promote QoS-basedresource allocation mechanisms that differentiateservice requests based on their utility.
Service level agreement
ExplaneQoS requirements cannot be static andneed to be dynamically updated over time due tocontinuing changes in business operations andoperating environments. In short, there should begreater importance on customers since they pay foraccessing services in Clouds. In addition, the state-ofthe-art in Cloud computing has no or limited supportfor dynamic negotiation of SLAs between participantsand mechanisms for automatic allocation of resourcesto multiple competing requests.
