IT landscapes tend to be more and more complex. The need for data access anywhere at any time forces us to use new technologies, adopt cloud solutions and integrate existing legacy systems. Agile processes, rapid deployment and the tools to support them have become a priority, over more a need, for companies.
To maintain these landscapes, the need for Release Management Automation arises.
Technology is evolving and changing at a very rapid pace, and it is more important than ever to ensure that mission critical back-end mainframe applications can exploit these new and disruptive technologies to transform digitally and deliver real value to the business, and to customers. DevOps on z Systems is a key enabler for the API economy and hybrid cloud. In this session we will discuss how DevOps can transform application delivery on z Systems, mitigate risk, and elevate the ability to respond quickly to customer expectations through continuous improvement"
Lily Craps, responsible for the Mainframe outsourcing project at SDWorx, explains how the moving of their mainframe to a shared environment at NRB, enabled ‘economies of scale’ on infrastructure costs for hardware and software. She describes the process, from starting the outsourcing study, over the RFI/RFP process, the selection of the provider, the contract negotiations and the migration project, next to the criteria for choosing NRB and an Infrastructure As A Service –cloud model.
More than ever, the mainframe is occupying a key position within NRB’s corporate strategy. Not only our development and managed operations services on mainframe represent a substantial part of the revenues of the NRB Group, our mainframe datacenter infrastructure has become one of the most performant of the country and we keep investing in our mainframe competence centers. Still, the market is changing; volumes increase but margins decrease and service offerings change towards cloud models. Peter Hellemans, COO of NRB explains his perception of these trends and how NRB will grasp new opportunities to cope with them.

CamundaCon 2018: Rule-Based Data Processing with DMN and Camunda (GVL)camunda services GmbH
Presented by David Hammer, Robert Breske
The GVL aggregates millions of usage reports for musical and cinematographic works from various sources every year. To cope with this amount of incoming data, a transparent and audit-proof data aggregation system was desired to be built. The solution was a DMN rule-based approach embedded in camunda's proccess engine framework, altogether with an audit-proof storage of the process history data. This system is capable of simulating the process flow for any processed data record at any later point in time, in case of a need for revision or validation. The GVL currently runs this scalable system with a troughput of more than one million daily process instances.

With all our orchestration, transformation and business rules buried in java code it was becoming time consuming to understand how our systems operated, bring new hires up to speed and answer use case questions. Due to the complexity of our business rules and the general mistakes that naturally take place in human communication, it was time consuming and error prone to translate information from the product owners to developers and vice versa. In this brief talk, I will demonstrate how 24 Hour Fitness is using Camunda to overcome this problem.

ASAP Methodology
ASAP stands for Accelerated SAP. Its purpose is to help design SAP implementation in the most efficient manner possible. Its goal is to effectively optimize time, people, quality and other resources, using a proven methodology to implementation. ASAP focuses on tools and training, wrapped up in a five-phase process oriented road map for guiding implementation.
The road map is composed of five well-known consecutive phases:
• Phase 1 Project Preparation
• Phase 2 Business Blueprint
• Phase 3 Realization
• Phase 4 Final Preparation
• Phase 5 Go-Live and support
The primary purpose of Application Lifecycle Management tools is to help developers build better software faster, in consistently high quality. But identifying and measuring the benefits of ALM, and monitoring the efficiency of work are often difficult tasks. Transparency, process visibility, the granular monitoring of and reporting on work are equally important, yet often overlooked aspects of using ALM software.
Watch our webinar to learn more about the widespread capabilities that codeBeamer ALM offers for Project Managers, including:
-Setting up and visualizing workflows to ensure process enforcement and transparency
-Identifying bottlenecks and eliminating wasteful processes using Kanban boards
-Highly configurable reporting dashboards & data visualization to support decision making and reporting to management
-Gapless traceability throughout the entire lifecycle for better quality products and compliance.
SCM Transformation Challenges and How to Overcome ThemCompuware
If your enterprise is focused on continuously improving quality, velocity and efficiency, you’re going to win against those that aren’t. Driving improvements on the mainframe, and in turn throughout the business, requires the transformation of three things: culture, processes and tools. In other words, changing mindsets, implementing modern practices (Agile, DevOps, CI/CD) and replacing outdated technology.
Mainframe source code management is currently a critical area in need of modernization and should be one of the initial tooling changes organizations make when setting out to improve mainframe systems delivery.
During this session, Compuware specialist Lars-Erik Berglund shares the challenges organizations face with mainframe source code management and what you can do to overcome those.

"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.

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.
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.
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.
