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!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

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.

v t e
Phonology is a branch of linguistics concerned with the systematic organization of sounds in
languages. It has traditionally focused largely on study of the systems of phonemes in particular
languages, but it may also cover any linguistic analysis either at a level beneath the word
(including syllable, onset and rhyme, articulatory gestures, articulatory features, mora, etc.) or at
all levels of language where sound is considered to be structured for conveying linguistic
meaning. Phonology also includes the study of equivalent organizational systems in sign
languages.
The word phonology (as in the phonology of English) can also refer to the phonological system
(sound system) of a given language. This is one of the fundamental systems which a language is
considered to comprise, like its syntax and its vocabulary.
Phonology is often distinguished from phonetics. While phonetics concerns the physical
production, acoustic transmission and perception of the sounds of speech,[1][2] phonology
describes the way sounds function within a given language or across languages to encode
meaning. In other words, phonetics belongs to descriptive linguistics, and phonology to
theoretical linguistics. Note that this distinction was not always made, particularly before the
development of the modern concept of phoneme in the mid 20th century. Some subfields of
modern phonology have a crossover with phonetics in descriptive disciplines such as
psycholinguistics and speech perception, resulting in specific areas like articulatory phonology or
laboratory phonology.

[edit]Derivation and definitions
The word phonology comes from Greek φωνή, phōn , "voice, sound", and the suffix -logy (whichḗ
is from Greek λόγος, lógos, "word, speech, subject of discussion").
Definitions of the term vary. Nikolai Trubetzkoy in Grundzüge der Phonologie (1939) defines
phonology as "the study of sound pertaining to the system of language", as opposed to phonetics,
which is "the study of sound pertaining to the act of speech" (the distinction between language
and speech being basically Saussure's distinction between langue and parole).[3] More recently,
Lass (1998) writes that phonology refers broadly to the subdiscipline of linguistics concerned with
the sounds of language, while in more narrow terms, "phonology proper is concerned with the
function, behaviour and organization of sounds as linguistic items".[1] According to Clark et al.
(2007) it means the systematic use of sound to encode meaning in any spoken human language,
or the field of linguistics studying this use.[4]
[edit]Development of phonology
The history of phonology may be traced back to the Ashtadhyayi, the Sanskrit grammar
composed by Pā ini in the 4th century BC. In particular the Shiva Sutras, an auxiliary text to theṇ
Ashtadhyayi, introduces what can be considered a list of the phonemes of the Sanskrit language, with a
notational system for them that is used throughout the main text, which deals with matters of morphology,
syntax and semantics.
The Polish scholar Jan Baudouin de Courtenay (together with his former student Mikołaj Kruszewski)
introduced the concept of the phoneme in 1876, and his work, though often unacknowledged, is considered
to be the starting point of modern phonology. He also worked on the theory of phonetic alternations (what
is now called allophony and morphophonology), and had a significant influence on the work of Ferdinand
de Saussure.
Nikolai Trubetzkoy, 1920s
An influential school of phonology in the interwar period was the Prague school. One of its leading
members was Prince Nikolai Trubetzkoy, whose Grundzüge der Phonologie (Principles of Phonology),[3]
published posthumously in 1939, is among the most important works in the field from this period. Directly
influenced by Baudouin de Courtenay, Trubetzkoy is considered the founder of morphophonology, although
this concept had also been recognized by de Courtenay. Trubetzkoy also developed the concept of the
archiphoneme. Another important figure in the Prague school was Roman Jakobson, who was one of the
most prominent linguists of the 20th century.
In 1968 Noam Chomsky and Morris Halle published The Sound Pattern of English (SPE), the basis for
generative phonology. In this view, phonological representations are sequences of segments made up of
distinctive features. These features were an expansion of earlier work by Roman Jakobson, Gunnar Fant,
and Morris Halle. The features describe aspects of articulation and perception, are from a universally fixed
set, and have the binary values + or −. There are at least two levels of representation: underlying
representation and surface phonetic representation. Ordered phonological rules govern how underlying
representation is transformed into the actual pronunciation (the so-called surface form). An important
consequence of the influence SPE had on phonological theory was the downplaying of the syllable and the
emphasis on segments. Furthermore, the generativists folded morphophonology into phonology, which both
solved and created problems.
Natural phonology was a theory based on the publications of its proponent David Stampe in 1969 and
3. (more explicitly) in 1979. In this view, phonology is based on a set of universal phonological processes
which interact with one another; which ones are active and which are suppressed are language-specific.
Rather than acting on segments, phonological processes act on distinctive features within prosodic groups.
Prosodic groups can be as small as a part of a syllable or as large as an entire utterance. Phonological
processes are unordered with respect to each other and apply simultaneously (though the output of one
process may be the input to another). The second-most prominent natural phonologist is Stampe's wife,
Patricia Donegan; there are many Natural Phonologists in Europe, though also a few others in the U.S.,
such as Geoffrey Nathan. The principles of natural phonology were extended to morphology by Wolfgang
U. Dressler, who founded natural morphology.
In 1976 John Goldsmith introduced autosegmental phonology. Phonological phenomena are no longer seen
as operating on one linear sequence of segments, called phonemes or feature combinations, but rather as
involving some parallel sequences of features which reside on multiple tiers. Autosegmental phonology
later evolved into feature geometry, which became the standard theory of representation for the theories of
the organization of phonology as different as lexical phonology and optimality theory.
Government phonology, which originated in the early 1980s as an attempt to unify theoretical notions of
syntactic and phonological structures, is based on the notion that all languages necessarily follow a small
set of principles and vary according to their selection of certain binary parameters. That is, all languages'
phonological structures are essentially the same, but there is restricted variation that accounts for
differences in surface realizations. Principles are held to be inviolable, though parameters may sometimes
come into conflict. Prominent figures include Jonathan Kaye, Jean Lowenstamm, Jean-Roger Vergnaud,
Monik Charette, John Harris, and many others.
In a course at the LSA summer institute in 1991, Alan Prince and Paul Smolensky developed optimality
theory—an overall architecture for phonology according to which languages choose a pronunciation of a
word that best satisfies a list of constraints which is ordered by importance: a lower-ranked constraint can
be violated when the violation is necessary in order to obey a higher-ranked constraint. The approach was
soon extended to morphology by John McCarthy and Alan Prince, and has become a dominant trend in
phonology. Though this usually goes unacknowledged, optimality theory was strongly influenced by
natural phonology; both view phonology in terms of constraints on speakers and their production, though
these constraints are formalized in very different ways.[citation needed] The appeal to phonetic grounding
of constraints in various approaches has been criticized by proponents of 'substance-free phonology'.[5]
Broadly speaking, government phonology (or its descendant, strict-CV phonology) has a greater following
in the United Kingdom, whereas optimality theory is predominant in North America.[citation needed]
[edit]Analysis of phonemes
An important part of traditional, pre-generative, schools of phonology is studying which sounds can be
grouped into distinctive units within a language; these units are known as phonemes. For example, in
English, the "p" sound in pot is aspirated (pronounced [p ]), while that in spot is not aspirated (pronouncedʰ
[p]). However, English speakers intuitively treat both sounds as variations (allophones) of the same
phonological category, that is, of the phoneme /p/. (Traditionally, it would be argued that if an aspirated [p ]ʰ
were interchanged with the unaspirated [p] in spot, native speakers of English would still hear the same
words; that is, the two sounds are perceived as "the same" /p/.) In some other languages, however, these
two sounds are perceived as different, and they are consequently assigned to different phonemes in those
languages. For example, in Thai, Hindi, and Quechua, there are minimal pairs of words for which
aspiration is the only contrasting feature (two words with different meanings that are identical except that
one has an aspirated sound where the other has an unaspirated one).
The vowels of modern (Standard) Arabic and (Israeli) Hebrew from the phonemic point of view. Note the
intersection of the two circles—the distinction between short a, i and u is made by both speakers, but
Arabic lacks the mid articulation of short vowels, while Hebrew lacks the distinction of vowel length.
The vowels of modern (Standard) Arabic and (Israeli) Hebrew from the phonetic point of view. Note that
the two circles are totally separate—none of the vowel-sounds made by speakers of one language is made
by speakers of the other.
4. Part of the phonological study of a language therefore involves looking at data (phonetic transcriptions of
the speech of native speakers) and trying to deduce what the underlying phonemes are and what the sound
inventory of the language is. The presence or absence of minimal pairs, as mentioned above, is a frequently
used criterion for deciding whether two sounds should be assigned to the same phoneme. However other
considerations often need to be taken into account as well.
The particular sounds which are phonemic in a language can change over time. At one time, [f] and [v]
were allophones in English, but these later changed into separate phonemes. This is one of the main factors
of historical change of languages as described in historical linguistics.
The findings and insights of speech perception and articulation research complicates the traditional and
somewhat intuitive idea of interchangeable allophones being perceived as the same phoneme. First,
interchanged allophones of the same phoneme can result in unrecognizable words. Second, actual speech,
even at a word level, is highly co-articulated, so it is problematic to expect to be able to splice words into
simple segments without affecting speech perception.
Different linguists therefore take different approaches to the problem of assigning sounds to phonemes. For
example, they differ in the extent to which they require allophones to be phonetically similar. There are also
differing ideas as to whether this grouping of sounds is purely a tool for linguistic analysis, or reflects an
actual process in the way the human brain processes a language.
Since the early 1960s, theoretical linguists have moved away from the traditional concept of a phoneme,
preferring to consider basic units at a more abstract level, as a component of morphemes; these units can be
called morphophonemes, and analysis using this approach is called morphophonology.
[edit]Other topics in phonology
In addition to the minimal units that can serve the purpose of differentiating meaning (the phonemes),
phonology studies how sounds alternate, i.e. replace one another in different forms of the same morpheme
(allomorphs), as well as, for example, syllable structure, stress, accent, and intonation.
Phonology also includes topics such as phonotactics (the phonological constraints on what sounds can
appear in what positions in a given language) and phonological alternation (how the pronunciation of a
sound changes through the application of phonological rules, sometimes in a given order which can be
feeding or bleeding,[6]) as well as prosody, the study of suprasegmentals and topics such as stress and
intonation.
The principles of phonological analysis can be applied independently of modality because they are
designed to serve as general analytical tools, not language-specific ones. The same principles have been
applied to the analysis of sign languages (see Phonemes in sign languages), even though the sub-lexical
units are not instantiated as speech sounds.
