AURA Wiki - Knowledge Acquisition with a Semantic Wiki ApplicationWilliam Smith
Constructing an AI knowledge base requires decomposing complex sentences into simplified statements with encoding concepts. Due to knowledge engineering cost and complexity, we created an experiment to test the scenario where college students do the above task using a semantic wiki. This wiki also tracked the progress of each student and provided an integrated environment for our knowledge workers.
In this presentation we will discuss the layout of the imported data within the wiki, the user experience throughout the publishing process, the underlying technologies behind the wiki app, and the preliminary results of the experiment. The semantic wiki web application included the following technologies:
• Semantic MediaWiki Plus, which provides an object oriented framework for semi-structured data.
• JavaScript, HTML5, and AJAX service-based graphing of triples and entities within the project and for interconnected services.
• Faceted browsing and semantic pivoting among related entities: textbook paragraphs, sentences, concepts, and sentence encodings.
• Virtuoso integration with the knowledge base.
Personalization: The Ultimate Tool for Creating a Competitive AdvantageChris Risner
Personalization and customization of the customer experience at every touchpoint is critical to creating a lasting and successful relationship. Customers and website visitors are continuing to demand relevant customer experiences in every part of the buyer's journey...and beyond. For example, nearly three-fourths (74%) of online consumers get frustrated with websites when content (e.g. offers, ads, promotions) appear that have nothing to do with their interests (Janrain & Harris Interactive, 2015).
This webinar will explore why personalization is important, how personalization works, what it can do for your organization, and provide examples of how it can be used including the types of technologies that enable it to work. Join us for a webinar on Thursday, November 17th, at 1PM CT.
What you will learn:
- Background and research on why personalization matters and is important
- How personalization works
- What personalization can do for an organization including increasing revenue and improving the customer experience
- Relevant examples of how personalization can be used
- The technologies that can be employed to effectively make personalization happen

DITA in the Open Source CMS Drupal - Baltimore 2011Kristof Van Tomme
Recently we published an alpha version of the DITA module for Drupal,
a community driven Open Source CMS that powers 1% of the Internet. The
module contains the tools for uploading topics individually or in
bulk, it let's you author DITA topics in forms and it has a Graphical
User Interface that let's you create mindmaps that can be used as DITA
maps. The DITA maps so created, together with their referenced topics
can also be exported using the DITA Open Toolkit integration. In this
talk you'll get an introduction to Drupal and the DITA module and
you'll learn how we want to use it to help our community write better,
more reusable documentation.
This upcoming Wikimania 2008 tutorial discusses the three principles of “open collaboration” which I believe are underlying wikis, open source, and other forms of peer production.
Digital Work Tools for the rest of us (2015)Filip Modderie
Digital tools are there to make our work life more easy, more efficient, more enjoyable. But a lot of them are very complicated, and there are a loooot of them, so they become more of a distraction. Let's tune in on the most useful ones, tested in real life (working as a markteer in a large enterprise).

The Moving House Model, adhocracy and remote collaborationBertrand Delacretaz
Slides of my February 2021 talk at FOSS Backstage, https://foss-backstage.de
Moving house with the help of a group of friends is an interesting exercise in collective improvisation and coordination. Everybody can help with most of the jobs at hand, so the challenge is to keep people busy in a meaningful way, to make the best use of the physical and intellectual resources available, while keeping people happy and engaged.
Sounds familiar? The Moving House model does apply to other types of group projects, including software development. Adhocracy, Asynchronous Collaboration and a can-do attitude, as practiced in Open Source communities, are key elements that enable groups that have no formal structure to collaborate efficiently and smoothly - like when helping friends moving house.

Dans un monde qui se numérise toujours plus, les logiciels libres sont partout: dans votre téléphone, votre ascenseur, votre voiture, votre banque, etc… plus que jamais, l’Open Source est au coeur de notre monde numérique.
Au-delà de ces contributions très concrètes au bien-être de nos sociétés, les communautés Open Source ont aussi inventé et mis en pratique des techniques de collaboration innovantes, distribuées, asynchrones. Souvent sans chef clairement identifié, ni planification précise, ces groupes de travail informels produisent des logiciels de grande qualité, qui pour certains ont créé des marchés ou révolutionnés les pratiques numériques. Le succès de ces groupes est étonnant quand on le compare aux nombreux projets informatiques ratés dans des groupes beaucoup plus structurés, entreprises ou organismes d’Etat par exemple.
L’Open Source change le monde…vraiment? Tout en gardant les choses en perspective, nous présenterons plusieurs exemples concrets où cela se vérifie, par la création d’outils partagés, la découverte de talents, la diffusion des connaissances et la création de logiciels d’infrastructure qui sont devenus des standards de l’industrie.
Shared Neurons - the Secret Sauce of Open Source communities?Bertrand Delacretaz
Slides of my talk at ApacheCon EU 2019in Berlin, Germany: Shared Neurons - the Secret Sauce of Open Source communities? See also the video recording at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWG-F3vW24w
Open Source communities sometimes speak of Shared Neurons when great ideas come together as if sparked by a giant collective brain. Can we take inspiration from them and foster such neuron sharing in our teams? We will describe the tools and techniques used by successful Open Source projects to "put their brains together", by communicating openly and often, exposing concrete ideas early in prototype code, collaborating asynchronously and deliberately slowing things down to take advantage of unexpected Eureka moments.
Based on years of experiences in multiple Open Source projects, this talk will help you better understand what makes our communities so powerful and how to transpose this in your own teams.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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.

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.

Source code control system instead
of “code on the fileserver”.
Issue tracker events instead of “what
did you do today”?
Mailing list “events” instead of “yell
around the office”.
Automated builds instead of “wait for
Bob to build it on Linux”.

A help (feature,

is a dialog, and
history is important.
Especially when you need to fix that feature
five years later.

23. Real-time help.
Use an issue tracker

Again - which exact tool you use does not really matter.

OpenExpo, Bern, April 2009
25. Self-service archives?
No time to document
everything that
happens.
Illusions like “we’ll have time later” don’t
help.
New project
members need the
information in
self-service mode.
Open Source Collaboration
Tools are Good for You! Bertrand Delacrétaz
OpenExpo, Bern, April 2009
26. Self-service archives?
Source code control logs, also
provide traceability of code.
Issue tracker data is structured
and searchable.
Mailing lists are semi-structured
and (somewhat) searchable.
Blogs and Wikis stay around.
Near-zero effort if
using the rights tools!

27. Speaking in URLs
http://mytracker/YOG-1234 as opposed to “that
memory problem that we found in the blastolyzer module
last week”.
http://myarchive/mail/2009-03-14-1234567.html points
to a very precise message as opposed to “what Bob said
last week about the blastolyzer”.
Speak in URLs !

31. Migration path?
?
Big Bang won’t work - need a stepwise plan.
Open Source Collaboration
Tools are Good for You! Bertrand Delacrétaz
OpenExpo, Bern, April 2009
32. Migration step 1
Working without a source code control system?
GET ONE - NOW!!
This is 2009!
“ Commit early, commit often “
“Whatever’s not in the source code repository does not exist”
Which tool you use does not matter much.
Open Source Collaboration
Tools are Good for You! Bertrand Delacrétaz
OpenExpo, Bern, April 2009
33. Migration step 2
Bring structure to the “what
are you working on”, “where
do we stand” and “what brings
us from A to B” questions.
Document the many micro-
decisions that shape your
project.
Review and update priorities
and assignments at will.
Issue Tracking
Makes all the difference in a
crisis.
Open Source Collaboration
Tools are Good for You! Bertrand Delacrétaz
OpenExpo, Bern, April 2009
34. Migration step 3
Repeatable, automated builds
instead of “just configure your IDE
like mine”.
Speed up the feedback loop
through continuous integration.
Moving to automated builds might
require a sizeable initial effort.
Open Source Collaboration
Tools are Good for You! Bertrand Delacrétaz
OpenExpo, Bern, April 2009
35. Migration steps 4..N
Archived discussions
should be next.
Wikis and blogs help a lot,
but are not as critical.
Instant messaging, IRC and
Twitter (or ESME) are very
useful, but have less impact
on the overall way of working.

36. Does this work?
Don’t force things on people,
small steps are required.
Team members might need to overcome their
fear of making mistakes in public.

37. Mistakes in public?
Learn by doing - only
the first few mistakes
are hard...
Is living proof that making
mistakes in public does not kill.

38. Conclusions
This works! see: ASF
Focus on the goals, not on the tools
(can be challenging with geeks...)
Source code control system and
issue tracker bring the most value.
Archived discussions and other tools are very
nice to have.
