Heavy engineering corporation summer traing projectShashi Ranjan
This project contains various glimpses and working information of this organisation by which viewer can get a short idea about what the H.E.C. actually deal with.
One of the fastest growing industries in Norway is the renewable energy sector. The countries geographical location coupled with strong government initiatives has played a major role to attract investments in this segment. Growing demand for clean energy and the potential for hydro and wind energy are expected to boost the market.
The report begins with an overview of the industry indicating installed capacity growth and the electricity generated. Figures pertaining to the installed capacity for hydro and wind power have been provided. An analysis of drivers explains factors contributing to the huge potential based on the geographical distribution for power generation, high precipitation levels, technological developments, favourable water system and fluctuating crude oil prices and falling petroleum production. The key challenges identified include power distribution leading to cost escalations and conflicts with other business interests.
The report highlights the government bodies involved in renewable energy market. The major government programmes and initiatives forwarded by the government towards the development of the industry including Energy21, ENOVA, Offshore Renewable Energy Act, RENERGI as well as various international cooperation agreements have been discussed. The legal framework in the energy sector including various laws and acts to be considered in the application of a new project has been covered
Competition section profiles the major players in the market. The section contains a snapshot of their corporation, financial performance and business highlights, providing an insight into the existing competitive scenario.
Market Research Report : Photovoltaic Generator Market in India 2012Netscribes, Inc.
For the complete report, get in touch with us at : info@netscribes.com
Dropping solar power tariff rate is spurring the Indian photovoltaic generator market.
The report begins with an introduction into the energy scenario in India. Installed capacity, demand supply gap of power prevailing in India and hence the need for renewable sources of energy is showcased. It gives a clear overview of the components of a solar PV plant and the production chain of PV technology. The market overview section provides an insight into the photovoltaic market which includes the growth and size of PV market in India. The breakup of types of PV modules that are used are also shown. It concludes with a representation of a solar PV value chain.
An analysis of the drivers explains the factors for growth of the industry which includes feasible geographical location of India, fall in prices of PV modules, depleting coal reserves, energy deficiency condition in India, dropping solar power rates, increasing cost of electricity from conventional sources, and time of commissioning of PV projects. However few challenges plague the solar PV sector in India which includes competition from Chinese firms, lack of consumer awareness and the capital intensive nature of solar PV projects.
Key trends in this sector like production of portable solar PV generators, investments in domestic solar PV power producing industry, rooftop power generation, and solar hybrid generators are also highlighted. Upcoming applications of solar PV in the telecom towers and rural ATM’s are also mentioned.

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.

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.
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.

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.
