The document presents SharedCanvas, a model for creating collaborative digital facsimiles of medieval manuscripts. It describes challenges in digitizing manuscripts, such as fragments, missing pages, and different page orders over time. The model represents each page as a "canvas" that can be painted with annotations linking to images, text, and other resources. Annotations are distributed across repositories using a publish-subscribe approach to enable customized views. The SharedCanvas model provides a coherent solution for collaboratively representing manuscript layouts and contents in a distributed way.

The goal is to develop an interoperable framework to enable annotation of and collaboration on scholarly works on a global scale.
Linked Data and Images: Building Blocks for Cultural HeritageRobert Sanderson
Presentation given at UC Berkeley on 18th of April, 2014. Describes the benefits of Linked Data for Cultural Heritage, along with the details of IIIF and Open Annotation frameworks.
The document discusses two types of transactional web archiving: server-side and browser-side. Server-side archiving records transactions directly from willing web servers. Browser-side archiving records transactions from a browser extension. Both provide access to archived content through Memento TimeGates, allowing seamless retrieval of past versions across archives.
This document discusses the challenges of creating an interoperable framework for presenting digital manuscripts. It notes that current repositories exist in silos, preventing access and sharing across systems. The goal is to break down these silos by separating data from applications, sharing data models and programming interfaces, and enabling tools and repositories to interact. A proposed solution involves using a "canvas" approach and linked data technologies to align multiple representations and allow annotations to be shared across repositories. Funding from the Mellon Foundation supported numerous digitization projects but lacked ways to share data between systems.

Sanderson CNI 2020 Keynote - Cultural Heritage Research Data EcosystemRobert Sanderson
There have been, and continue to be, many initiatives to address the social, technological, financial and policy-based challenges that throw up roadblocks towards achieving this vision. However, it is hard to tell whether we are making progress, or whether we are eternally waiting for the hyperloop that will never come. If we are to ever be able to answer research questions that require a broad, international corpus of cultural data, then we need an ecosystem that can be characterized with 5 “C”s: Collaborative, Consistent, Connected, Correct and Contextualized. Each of these has implications for the sustainability, innovation, usability, timeliness and ethical considerations that must be addressed in a coherent and holistic manner. As with autonomous vehicles, technology (and perhaps even machine “intelligence”) is a necessary but insufficient component.
In this presentation, I will frame and motivate this grand challenge and propose where we can build connections between the academy, the cultural heritage sector, and industry. The discussion will explore the issues, and highlight some of the successful endeavors and more approachable opportunities where, together, progress can be made.
Tiers of Abstraction and Audience in Cultural Heritage Data ModelingRobert Sanderson

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?Speck&Tech
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.
Partecipate alla presentazione per immergervi in una storia di interoperabilità, standard e formati aperti, per poi discutere del ruolo importante che i contributori hanno in una comunità open source sostenibile.
BIO: Sostenitrice del software libero e dei formati standard e aperti. È stata un membro attivo dei progetti Fedora e openSUSE e ha co-fondato l'Associazione LibreItalia dove è stata coinvolta in diversi eventi, migrazioni e formazione relativi a LibreOffice. In precedenza ha lavorato a migrazioni e corsi di formazione su LibreOffice per diverse amministrazioni pubbliche e privati. Da gennaio 2020 lavora in SUSE come Software Release Engineer per Uyuni e SUSE Manager e quando non segue la sua passione per i computer e per Geeko coltiva la sua curiosità per l'astronomia (da cui deriva il suo nickname deneb_alpha).

3. Motivation
There are many repositories of digitized
books, manuscripts and other culturally
important objects.
And just as many home-grown page
turning websites, apps and programs.
Plus at least as many formats for
description.
Even for a quires or folios of a single
manuscript, held at different physical
locations!
