Android development changed significantly in 2017 (Kotlin, Architecture Components and much more). Some of the most tricky and debatable questions now are: how to start a scalable project from scratch? How to decide which technology/library to use?
The HERE WeGo App team has worked for years to define a sophisticated release and development process, with a high level of automation that allowed to quickly followup on user issues and actively develop features. But legacy code and a large framework made it difficult to move even faster.
Lessons learned? We will discuss how to start over with all the learnings on a greenfield project.
Technologies that will be covered: Kotlin, Jenkins, JobDsl, Architecture Components, GraphQL, gRPC and more.
Extremely high-level overview of some of the major components and sub-systems of the Alfresco platform for content management. Delivered to the Red Hat Summit/JBoss World Campground session on 5/4/2011.

Introduction to eXo ECM (Enterprise Content Management) Suite.
- store and share content in eXo JCR and access it easily using eXo Portal
- easily create Web sites using eXo WCM (Web Content Management)
But we're already open source! Why would I want to bring my code to Apache?gagravarr
From ApacheCon Europe 2015 in Budapest
So, your business has already opened sourced some of its code? Great! Or you're thinking about it? That's fine! But now, someone's asking you about giving it to these Apache people? What's up with that, and why isn't just being open source enough?
In this talk, we'll look at several real world examples of where companies have chosen to contribute their existing open source code to the Apache Software Foundation. We'll see the advantages they got from it, the problems they faced along the way, why they did it, and how it helped their business. We'll also look briefly at where it may not be the right fit.
Wondering about how to take your business's open source involvement to the next level, and if contributing to projects at the Apache Software Foundation will deliver RoI, then this is the talk for you!
A common question from companies considering Alfresco for content management is what to do with their legacy ECM systems. In many cases, they want to run Alfresco alongside their existing system for some period of time, and then gradually migrate their content. Join Alfresco Partner of the Year – Zia Consulting – to learn how OpenWorkdesk will allow users to interact with both Alfresco and any CMIS compatible repository in a multi-repository environment.
The presentation will include a specific demonstration of OpenWorkdesk running against both Alfresco and IBM FileNet with a single user interface, and will also discuss how the gradual migration to Alfresco takes place.

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.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
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.

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.
