Modular Architectures: What they are why do they matter now.Param Rengaiah
Software systems evolve over time. Most of them through, are quick and small ones - hacks. These changes, over a period of time makes the code spaghetti, difficult to understand, gathers tremendous Technical Debt and along they way looses the design principles by which they are designed in the first place. Fixing these problems will be risky, tedious and expensive and definitely not without the support of a proven framework.This is the first problem. There is another force that will require significant changes to existing software systems. This force is created by the changing landscape of expectations due to technologies such as cloud, big-data and REST as well as emotional experience across all touch points, not just on PCs. This is the second problem.
Modular architecture addresses both these problems. It is not a novel thought or an isolated architectural style, but a structured way to refactor, rather restructure the code to make the systems easier to understand, extend and adopt to the new paradigms. The focus of Modular Architecture is the structural and physical design.

Architecture & data acquisition by embedded systems in automobiles seminar pptAnkit Kaul
The document discusses the architecture of digital services provided by embedded systems in automobiles. It describes how embedded devices like VACT collect sensor data from vehicles and transmit it over networks to backend servers for remote diagnostics and predictive maintenance. The architecture spans different layers, with embedded devices following modular characteristics, while transmission networks and algorithms like COSMO for data analysis exhibit properties of layered modular architectures. The digital services have their own layers within the embedded devices, but algorithms like COSMO can also operate independently from the devices.
An overview of BUG, by Bug Labs, discussing the BUG product architecture and usage scenarios, in addition to some pretty charts and graphs that prove the immense power of open source.
A solid introduction about how mobile products are being built in a „developer friendly“ way. Based on familiar models like the Lean Product Pyramid by Dan Olsen, Elements of User Experience by Jesse James Garrett and the Hierachy of Needs by Abraham Maslow. Also covering Apple HUI Guidelines and Material Design by Google.
The document discusses using presentation and visualization techniques to move beyond a product-centric view of architecture. It describes a session that will use a complex business process model as an example to show how dashboards, graphics, reference models and other visualizations can enhance architecture application and understanding. The session will also relate the process model to the DoDAF architecture framework and demonstrate how well-formed architecture data supports various visualizations and business uses.

Why do you think Genzyme has diversified into other areas of medicine reeza fazily
Genzyme diversified into other areas of medicine and business ventures for several reasons:
1) To fully utilize their technology and expertise to help more patients with serious diseases.
2) To generate more stable cash flow to reinvest in research and development of new medicines.
3) There were many opportunities for industrial growth and diversification.
Some advantages of Genzyme's diversification included reducing risk by not relying on a single business, benefiting from synergies across areas by sharing resources and knowledge, and improving quality by strengthening related businesses. However, diversifying also carried higher risks and investment needs, potential loss of focus on their core products, and difficulties developing therapies for rare diseases with smaller patient populations.
The document discusses product architecture and its impact on key design considerations. It defines product architecture as the assignment of a product's functions to physical building blocks or "chunks". An effective architecture balances modularity and integration. It also outlines four steps to establish a product architecture: creating a schematic, clustering elements, laying elements out geometrically, and identifying fundamental and incidental interactions between chunks.
This document discusses alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques for resolving disputes outside of litigation. It defines ADR as approaches that resolve conflicts in a non-confrontational manner. The document then lists and describes the main ADR types: negotiation, mediation, arbitration, ombuds, and family group conferences. Negotiation involves voluntary participation with no third party, while mediation uses a third party facilitator. Arbitration employs a third party to impose a resolution. Ombuds and family group conferences are also discussed. The document concludes that the appropriate ADR technique depends on each situation.
The document discusses product architecture, which is the arrangement of functional elements into physical chunks or modules that make up the core building blocks of a product. It notes that product architecture is determined early in the development process and impacts factors like manufacturing cost, product evolution, and more. The document provides examples of modular versus integral architecture and walks through establishing the architecture for a sample desk jet printer.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
