How Social and the Cloud Impact Your Governance StrategyChristian Buckley
As organizations look to expand their SharePoint on premises footprint using social, mobile, or cloud based platforms and services, some governance considerations. Presented originally at SharePoint Saturday Virginia Beach 2013 (#SPSVB)
Microsoft Search is looking to bring the search experiences across all Microsoft 365 services together into a single unified experience. Attend this session to learn how the experience impacts your users, how you can configure it as well as scenarios where you should customize it.
Office 365 provides an incredible amount of value to individual employees, teams, departments, and organizations. Much of this value is not realized immediately upon purchase or deployment of Office 365. The value is realized as more and more users understand, adopt and embrace the technology.
So how do we drive faster, sustainable and effective adoption? And perhaps more importantly, how do we ensure our adoption approach scales and can keep up with the innovation the Office 365 service provides?
Join Richard Harbridge as he shares real world experience, advice and activities that other customers are leveraging to get more from Office 365 and drive more meaningful adoption.
Viva Topics uses AI to reason over content across teams and systems, recognizing content types, extracting important information, and automatically organizing content into shared topics like projects, products, processes and customers. SharePoint Syntex then creates a knowledge network based on relationships among topics, content, and people.
Attend this session to learn more about how Viva Topics, topic pages and how knowledge center can transform knowledge in your organization.

Information architecture in share point 2010James Tramel
Planning a SharePoint implementation is very important, both from a financial/physical resource and knowledge management perspective. Knowing how to combine the most basic information elements into a design can help you implement a working product pragmatically and functionally, rather than blindly. We’ll discuss basic topology and planning of SharePoint 2010, as well as implementation.
This session will discuss building an effective search and information architecture strategy for SharePoint.
One of the reasons many SharePoint implementations fail to meet user expectations is the lack of investment in its underlying information architecture. Some organizations see SharePoint as an out-of-the-box solution that they can simply plug in and throw content into, but it requires as much thought and effort around data structure, organizational principles, and search configuration as any portal or intranet.
This call will discuss building an effective search and information architecture strategy for SharePoint, including such topics as:
• Building a search & IA vision
• Requirements gathering & use cases
• Implementation strategy & approaches
• The future of SharePoint search

What's Changed with SharePoint in the Past Few Years and Why It MattersRichard Harbridge
Office 365 and SharePoint are evolving fast. A few years ago many of us may have begun modernizing our SharePoint environments - planning an upgrade or a migration to SharePoint 2013 or even SharePoint Online. Since that time many things have changed in both SharePoint Server and Office 365, not to mention within our organizations. New services have been added, and many of those services are improving with each passing month. What approaches, strategies and rollout models are other organizations using? What can we learn from their successes?
Join us for this facilitated and interactive discussion where instead of just looking forward, we look back into key changes that we all need to understand better. This discussion will be facilitated by Richard Harbridge, a Microsoft MVP, and internationally recognized expert on Office 365 and SharePoint. Together we will discuss what has changed in the past few years for developers, IT professionals, and SharePoint leads while exploring how organizations are leveraging these services in different ways today.

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.
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!

1. Mind to Matter: A way to model how you work in SharePoint James Tramel Solutions Architect Planet Technologies
2. Why Listen to me? Many, many SharePoint implementations and upgrades A lot of non-cs Education MCTS, MCITP SP 2010 Business experience DB, Dev, Inf, and Admin training, education and experience
3. What is SharePoint What does it do? How does it work? Why does it work? Have you ever seen it not work?
4. Collaboration Gone Wrong Content Chaos Email as personal CMS Islands of information Can’t find anything, Don’t learn anything Just like a web version of my file shares and paperwork Collaboration hasn’t changed Institutional memory not enhanced How did they do that?
5. Why Another Model? MarketReview Market Introduction Growth Matturity Saturation
6. How to Model SharePoint Does it need a model? Why? What kind of model? How is the model developed? How is the model revisited?
7. A SharePoint model Information architecture, information management and information governance are the cornerstones Built around you These ideas and planning them are in just about every book on SharePoint
9. Formal Definitions Information architecture (IA) is the art of expressing a model or concept of information used in activities that require explicit details of complex systemsInformation management (IM) is the collection and management of information from one or more sources and the distribution of that information to one or more audiencesInformation Governance is the set of policies, role, responsibilities, and processes that guide, direct, and control how an organization's business divisions and IT teams cooperate to achieve business goals.
10. IA Examples The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine Faceted Metadata for Image Search and Browsing Facetag: Integrating Bottom-up and Top-down Classification in a Social Tagging System
11. Who does IA and When? “Here's what I've come to understand: What IA has been about from the beginning is designing context with hyperlinks. That is, shaping contextual experience with connections afforded by the new, digital layer of the web.” Answer: You do
16. SP Information Architecture Information architecture in SharePoint Server 2010 is the organization of information in an enterprise — its documents, lists, Web sites, and Web pages — to maximize the information's usability and manageability.
17. IA Factors for SharePoint How to find information How information is stored and retrieved How users navigate to information How data will be presented in the site. How redundant or overlapping information is What templates are used for creating information How My Site Web sites fit into the information architecture How the site will be structured and divided into a set of subsites.
21. Normalization Normalization is the process of organizing data to minimize redundancy. The goal of database normalization is to decompose relations with anomalies in order to produce smaller, well-structured relations. Objectives of normalization 1. To free the collection of relations from undesirable insertion, update and deletion dependencies; 2. To reduce the need for restructuring the collection of relations as new types of data are introduced, and thus increase the life span of application programs; 3. To make the relational model more informative to users; 4. To make the collection of relations neutral to the query statistics, where these statistics are liable to change as time goes by.
22. Data Normalization It’s a Process 1NF, 2Nf – BCNF – every non trivial functional dependency is a dependency on a super key Each table is a single subject, no data stored in more than 1 table, no anomolies, all attributes have a key
23. SharePoint Normalization Use the tools – that’s why they’re there Managed Metadata Content Types Search User Profile Service Performance Point BCS
24. Metadata and Taxonomy What is metadata in general? What is Managed metadata - a hierarchical collection of centrally managed terms that you can define and then use as attributes for items in Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010. A user's role determines how the user can work with managed metadata.
26. Content Types A reusable collection of metadata Content types enable enterprises to organize, manage, and handle content in a consistent way. They define the attributes of a type of list item, document, or folder. Important for consistency, reusability and centrality Together with metadata, you seamlessly begin to integrate work
27. SP Information Governance Information Governance is the set of policies, roles, responsibilities, and processes that guide, direct, and control how an organization's business divisions and IT teams cooperate to achieve business goals.
28. SP Information Governance Streamlining the deployment of products and technologies, such as SharePoint Server 2010. Helping protect your enterprise from security threats or noncompliance liability. Helping ensure the best return on your investment in technologies, for example, by enforcing best practices in content management or information architecture.
29. Implement IG Determine initial principles and goals Classify the business information / content Develop an education strategy Develop an ongoing plan
30. Conclusion You need a model – your own model Creating the model should be rely on IA, IM and IG. You need expertise in your company and outside of your company You need to invest in yourself and understand your own information You need to know how SharePoint works, and works for you. SharePoint should fit you, not the other way around. By planning how you work you can implement or re-implement SharePoint highly successfully, vastly increasing success and knowledge

Editor's Notes
Connect to audience – what do they doOften – this is something you might take a look at before, but it something you may need to take a look at now
Cure for Cancer?
From Files, to File Shares – not much different
Why will a model help, and why another modelModel is a form that structure an ideaNormal is a guy they keep in the closetDifference between what a technical expert can offer, and what the business has to invest is the reason for many failures.Regardless there are ways out of this failureHow do we make it better? Learn about SharePoint and try to figure it out – maybe a model?
Why model – why not just grow organically oob – nothing wrong – but you might need to revisitLots of models– single farm (oob model (wing it), top down, bottom up, portal, public first/publish first, centralized, deconstructed, conestoga, specialized, cross-org, collaboration)Usually individual, hopefully a focus group, sometimes teamRevision of plans = Software Development Lifecycle / Business Lifecycle
