Richard Baxter outlines his keyword research process which involves gathering data from various sources, grouping and analyzing the data, and producing a report. Some of the key steps include using tools like Google Trends, Keyword Planner, and Ahrefs to gather keyword data, categorizing keywords to identify opportunities, and analyzing rankings and traffic to prioritize opportunities. The goal is to learn what people search for related to your business and where there are gaps to create new content.
This document is the master's thesis of Tesfay Aregay submitted to the University of Twente in 2014.

"Just Imagine!" a Strategic Foresight exerciseJohn Ratcliffe
Having just completed a Strategic Foresight exercise for the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) entitled "Just Imagine!", I am convinced that the RICS stands at a crossroads; a turning-point that is only encountered once every few decades. Arguably, the next five to ten years will be a time of massive transition for everyone, everywhere. For the RICS, the big question is: will it be a period of dithering about direction – some progress here, some retreat there – or will it be a period where, emboldened by a ‘new mindset’, the Institution venturesomely sets out on a fresh path towards a spectacular new future? What is needed, to my mind, is nothing short of a “Grand Transformation”.
Bloom's Digital Taxonomy updates Bloom's Revised Taxonomy to account for new technologies and digital learning. It focuses on cognitive processes as well as digital methods and tools. The taxonomy is not about specific technologies, but using tools to achieve remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating. It recognizes that collaboration, an essential 21st century skill, can take many forms and be facilitated by digital tools. While knowledge is important, thinking skills that can be applied to solving real-world problems are key. The digital taxonomy categorizes digital activities that support remembering, such as highlighting, bookmarking, and social networking.
This document provides an overview of creating and structuring a database. It discusses database concepts like entity relationship diagrams, normal forms, primary keys, foreign keys, and data types.

Cybersecurity is a constant, and, by all accounts growing, challenge. Although software products are gradually becoming more secure and novel approaches to cybersecurity are being developed, hackers are becoming more adept, their tools are better, and their markets are flourishing. The rising tide of network intrusions has focused organizations' attention on how to protect themselves better. This report, the second in a multiphase study on the future of cybersecurity, reveals perspectives and perceptions from chief information security officers; examines the development of network defense measures — and the countermeasures that attackers create to subvert those measures; and explores the role of software vulnerabilities and inherent weaknesses. A heuristic model was developed to demonstrate the various cybersecurity levers that organizations can control, as well as exogenous factors that organizations cannot control. Among the report's findings were that cybersecurity experts are at least as focused on preserving their organizations' reputations as protecting actual property. Researchers also found that organizational size and software quality play significant roles in the strategies that defenders may adopt. Finally, those who secure networks will have to pay increasing attention to the role that smart devices might otherwise play in allowing hackers in. Organizations could benefit from better understanding their risk posture from various actors (threats), protection needs (vulnerabilities), and assets (impact). Policy recommendations include better defining the role of government, and exploring information sharing responsibilities.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
