Aircraft Rotable Components - MRO Cost Models / SAP Preventive and Predictive...Frank A.
A rapid repair loop is a key component of an agile supply chain. It is also one of the most direct ways to save money in high-tech, high-pressure sectors. Put differently, the only way to compensate for a sub-optimized repair loop is to spend more money on new stock.
Paper on the issues with mtbf published in the Spring 2011 issue of the RMSP Journal.
MTBF is widely used to describe the reliability of a component or system. It is also often misunderstood and used incorrectly. In some sense, the very name “mean time between failures” contributes to the misunderstanding. The objective of this paper is to explore the nature of the MTBF misunderstandings and the impact on decision-making and program costs.
Mean-Time-Between-Failure (MTBF) as defined by MIL-STD-721C Definition of Terms for Reliability and Maintainability, 12 June 1981, is
A basic measure of reliability for repairable items: The mean number of life units during which all parts of the item perform within their specified limits, during a particular measurement interval under stated conditions.
The related measure, Mean-Time-To-Failure (MTTF) is define as
A basic measure of reliability for non-repairable items: The total number of life units of an item divided by the total number of failures within that population, during a particular measurement interval under stated conditions.

Much has been written about lean manufacturing and the lean enterprise—enough that nearly all readers are familiar with the concepts as well as the phrases themselves. But what about lean maintenance?
Is it merely a subset of lean manufacturing? Is it a natural fall-in-behind spinoff result of adopting lean manufacturing practices?
Much to the chagrin of many manufacturing companies, whose attempts at implementing lean practices have failed ignominiously, lean maintenance is neither a subset nor a spinoff of lean manufacturing. It is instead a prerequisite for success as a lean manufacturer. This article will explain why.

Business Process Automation A Productivity LeverKnoldus Inc.
"While technical team build / implement systems and solutions to automate business process, there is still ample work to be done by end users as part of the business process which mainly include data building, cleansing, consolidation, validation, reconciliation.
This exercise includes accessing diff systems, websites (internal/external), communication with diff agencies, building reports, comply with regulations.
Most of these tasks are performed following very standard steps with minimum or no exceptional scenario. Even exceptions occurs, resolution path is predefined.
Being routine tasks, either organization has to engaged high cost resources to perform these tasks or add more manpower to support the team. This adds to productivity issues.
Business Process Automation, using S/w Bot (also called RPA) is a tool which help to automate these processes by configuring all steps, business rules and exceptions with required security measures.
Thus RPA tool helps to business multiple ways (beyond cost saving) viz. Team Productivity, Consistency, Predictability and improved customer / user experience.

The creative community are tough customers, so making everything work 99.99% of the time while delivering the rich, artistic experience that Adobe's fans expect doesn't make life easy for the eCommerce group. But it's a challenge they've embraced!
Adobe's Greg Thomsen, Event Management Analyst, will share the steps his team has taken to transform their eCommerce platform and processes to be more resilient and responsive. You'll hear about the cultural changes and collaboration supported by the combination of Dynatrace Synthetic Monitoring and Application Monitoring, including:
Accelerating incident management through automation
Driving business alignment with management views
Successful cloud migration
Learn about the hurdles cleared, the lessons learned and Adobe's vision for the future of their digital performance management strategy.
Click to Disk Troubleshooting with AppDynamics and OpsDataStore - AppSphere16AppDynamics
AppDynamics is the market-leading APM solution. OpsDataStore is the common, real-time, big data back-end that enables data-driven IT operations across all sources of monitoring data. Learn how the combination of the uniquely valuable AppDynamics Business Transaction Performance and Throughput metrics and infrastructure metrics from vendors like VMware, ExtraHop, and Intel allow you to understand the behavior of your critical business transactions in the context of the behavior and resource contention in your virtual and physical infrastructure.
Key takeaways:
o The data from AppDynamics (Transaction Response Time and Throughput) is more valuable when analyzed in the context of infrastructure data from other vendors.
o Exposing infrastructure teams (IT operations) to AppDynamics data increases the demand for it as IT operations has probably never had visibility to actual transaction performance before.
o OpsDataStore and AppDynamics enable a best-of-breed monitoring strategy that allows enterprises to stop wasting money on legacy frameworks.

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.

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.
