In this presentation on LED System Introduction we will look at individual system components. A basic LED system consists of an LED, potentially an LED optic, a thermal system and an LED driver. Learn how to decide on an LED type and the number of LEDs per system.
An LED is a device that emits light when electrically biased. Similar to any electronic component, LEDs also have electrical parameters that need to be taken into consideration when designed into a system.
In this presentation on Internal Thermal Resistance of LEDs we will look at the definition and significance of internal thermal resistance in LED packages, the path of heat transfer in some OSRAM LED packages, and the calculation of the junction temperature in LEDs.

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.
