The two important aspects of a supply chain are forward supply chain and reverse supply chain. Forward supply chain is something that we know of i.e., the flow of goods and services from manufacturer to wholesaler to retailer.
We all are aware that logistics is a part of supply chain management system. Where as logistics entails the forward movement of goods within a supply chain, reverse logistics on the other hand can manage the reverse management of products.
Reverse logistics is for all operations related to the reuse of products and materials. It is "the process of moving goods from their typical final destination for the purpose of capturing value, or proper disposal.

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.

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.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

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.

Reverse supply chain, an integral part of a supply chain process
1. Reverse Supply Chain, an Integral Part of a Supply Chain Process
Supply chain can be defined as the flow of goods, information, and finances from supplier to manufacturer to wholesaler
to retailer to consumer. The Council of Logistics Management define supply chain as "the process of planning,
implementing and controlling the efficient, cost-effective flow of raw materials, in-process inventory, finished goods and
related information from the point of origin to the point of consumption for the purpose of conforming to customer
requirements." The supply chain is also referred to as a value chain as it adds value to the organization by providing
what the customer wants and the market demands that too at a low cost.
All organizations have supply chains but just as the companies differ from each other in size and the kind of product
manufactured so do the supply chains. The important components of a supply chain are order management, fulfillment
solutions, distribution, logistics, warehousing, inventory control, retail packaging, and returns management. These
components are different pieces of the supply chain that have to be managed and coordinated in such a way that it adds
value to the company in terms of product quality as well as customer satisfaction but at the same time keeping the costs
down.
The two important aspects of a supply chain are forward supply chain and reverse supply chain. Forward supply chain is
something that we know of i.e., the flow of goods and services from manufacturer to wholesaler to retailer. Traditionally
those companies that managed effectively the forward flow of products to customers stayed ahead of the competition.
For customers, factors such as high quality products, on time delivery, competitive prices, low damage rates were
important and therefore they preferred only those companies that were capable of doing so. Today, customers’
preferences remain the same except that there is one more attribute that they look for in companies when they make
purchase decisions and that is the companies must be capable of managing a reverse supply chain as well. They do not
prefer companies that do not offer a good returns policy.
Reverse supply chain solution is the movement of goods and services from the customers to the retailers. Reverse
supply chain is not an entirely new phenomenon as it has been executed successfully in the automotive industry. The
reverse supply chain process was earlier perceived to be a valueless process and it was the fear of regulations that
forced most companies to invest in reverse supply chain processes. That is when they realized that reverse supply chain
is a good business weapon that reaped benefits when used tactically.
Reverse supply chain is an integral part of any supply chain process. A supply chain process is complete only when it
consists of forward and reverse supply chain processes.
