SGCI Science Gateways: Ushering in a New Era of Sustainability Sandra Gesing
The computational landscape has never so fast evolved like in the last decade. Computational scientific methods tackle an increasing breadth and diversity of topics – analyzing data on a large scale and accessing high-performance computing infrastructures, cutting-edge hardware and instruments. Novel technologies such as next-gen sequencing or the Square Kilometre Array telescope, the world largest radio telescope, have evolved, which allow creating data in exascale dimension. While the availability of this data salvage to find answers for research questions, which would not have been feasible before, the amount of data creates new challenges, which obviously need novel computational solutions. Such novel solutions require integrative approaches for multidisciplinary teams across geographical boundaries, which improve usability of scientific methods tailored to the target user communities and aim at achieving reproducibility of science. The goal of science gateways, also called virtual research environments or virtual laboratories, are following exactly this goal to provide an easy-to-use end-to-end solution hiding the complex underlying infrastructure. They support researchers with intuitive user interfaces to focus on their research question instead of becoming acquainted with technological details.
Science gateways are often developed by research teams, who are not necessarily in the computer science domain and science projects depend on academic funding. Centralized research programmer teams, who can provide broad experience and contribute to sustainability of solutions, are rather rare at universities and there is still a lack of incentives for interested developers to stay in academia. One of the future challenges for science gateways and thus for computational scientific methods will be to increase the sustainability and getting less dependent on successful proposals. The US National Science Foundation has recognized the importance of this topic for research and has funded the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) to support not only teams in developing science gateways but also to help communities to find a way to sustain their favorite science gateway for conducting their research. This talk will go into detail for current challenges, the landscape around science gateways, the services of SGCI and approaches to reach sustainability.

SGCI - Science Gateways - Technology-Enhanced Research Under Consideration of...Sandra Gesing
Science gateways - also called virtual research environments or virtual labs - allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, instruments, and other resources specific to their disciplines and use them also in teaching environments. In the last decade mature complete science gateway frameworks have evolved such as HUBzero and Galaxy as well as Agave and Apache Airavata. Successful implementations have been adapted for several science gateways, for example, the technologies behind the science gateways CIPRES, which is used by over 20.000 users to date and serves the community in the area of large phylogenetic trees. Lessons learned from the last decade include that approaches should be technology agnostic, use standard web technologies or deliver a complete solution. Independent of the technology, the major driver for science gateways are the user communities and user engagement is key for successful science gateways. The US Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI), opened in August 2016, provides free resources, services, experts, and ideas for creating and sustaining science gateways. It offers five areas of services to the science gateway developer and user communities: the Incubator, Extended Developer Support, the Scientific Software Collaborative, Community Engagement and Exchange, and Workforce Development. The talk will give an introduction to science gateways, examples for science gateways and an overview on the services offered by the SGCI to serve user communities and developers for creating successful science gateways.

It offers five areas of services to the science gateway developer and user communities: the Incubator, Extended Developer Support, the Scientific Software Collaborative, Community Engagement and Exchange, and Workforce Development. While all these services are available to US-based communities, the Incubator, the Scientific Software Collaborative and the Community Engagement and Exchange serve also the international communities. SGCI aims at supporting beyond borders on international scale with diverse measures and to form and deepen collaborations with partner organizations and coalitions beneficial and/or related to the science gateways community. Research topics are independent of national borders and researchers spread worldwide can benefit from each other’s research results, software, data and from lessons learned — via online materials and publications or at international events. The gateway community has benefitted from this type of exchange for years and one mission of SGCI is to support the international community. This talk will present related work describing the benefits of international collaborations generally, and specifically as they relate to science gateways. It will go into detail regarding SGCI’s ongoing work on an international scale and SGCI's work planned in the near future to foster collaborations under consideration of challenges such as different timezones and long distances between collaborators.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

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.
