"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Builder.ai Founder Sachin Dev Duggal's Strategic Approach to Create an Innova...Ramesh Iyer
In today's fast-changing business world, Companies that adapt and embrace new ideas often need help to keep up with the competition. However, fostering a culture of innovation takes much work. It takes vision, leadership and willingness to take risks in the right proportion. Sachin Dev Duggal, co-founder of Builder.ai, has perfected the art of this balance, creating a company culture where creativity and growth are nurtured at each stage.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.
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.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
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.

Simon Pike, Vodafone - Mobile Implementation Challenges and Global Harmonisation
1. Long term use of UHF spectrum below 694MHz
Mobile implementation challenges and global
harmonisation
Simon Pike
Vodafone
Spectrum Policy Forum – Cluster 1
23 March 2016
2. • Global economies of scale
– The EU now barely has critical mass
– Less than half the population of China or India
– More fragmented than USA and lower ARPU
• Easy to implement in terminals
– Within a frequency range already supported
– By the PA, front end and antenna
– Does not clash with other frequency arrangements
– For FDD, easy to implement in the duplexer (which separates transmit and receive)
– Uplink or downlink less than 4-5% fractional bandwidth
– Uplink and downlink separated by greater than 1-2% fractional bandwidth
– Favourable for carrier aggregation
– Any combination of one band <1GHz and another >1700MHz can be aggregated
– Two bands <1GHz or two band >1700MHz require a specific solution for the combination
• Straightforward to add to cell sites
– Can use existing antennas
– Band combination is straightforward (especially for remote RF heads at the tower
top)
– Channel combinations, for passive intermodulation (PIM) and infrastructure sharing
What makes a successful ecosystem for a mobile
band?

3. Spectrum Policy Forum Cluster 2; mmWaves; - 5G access – C1
(Public)
Potential of sub-700MHz downlink-only (1)
• Uncertain and small market size
– National option within EU Decision
– Countries may see different priorities for UHF spectrum (PMSE, TVWS, DVB-T2 SFNs, etc)
• Not easy to implement in terminals
– Wide frequency range would almost certainly require antenna tuning
– Assume that full 470-694MHz range would be needed
– This would probably reduce efficiency for 800MHz and 900MHz band
– Could not carrier aggregate downlink-only with 700MHz, 800MHz or 900MHz
– An antenna can only be tuned to one frequency
– May be a gap at top of TV spectrum that cannot be used (due to filters in terminal)
– Receiver blocking from broadcast transmissions would need to be investigated
– Potential clash with 600MHz band implementation in global terminals
– BUT no transmit chain required in terminal
• Base stations would probably require separate antennas
– Unlikely that a single panel could support an octave below 1GHz plus two higher
frequency ranges
– Variability of frequency makes planning of intermodulation more difficult
4. Spectrum Policy Forum Cluster 2; mmWaves; - 5G access – C1
(Public)
Potential of sub-700MHz downlink-only (2)
• Patchy coverage
– Experience with TVWS suggests that transmit power could be limited in some locations
• Unclear revenue stream
– What would this spectrum be used for?
• Complicates long term optimal use of spectrum
– Could make eventual release of UHF spectrum more difficult
5. Spectrum Policy Forum Cluster 2; mmWaves; - 5G access – C1
(Public)
Sub-700MHz band – global developments
• US Incentive auction
– Due to start on 29th March
– Two separate but interdependent auctions:
– A reverse auction, to determine the price at which broadcasters will voluntarily relinquish their
spectrum
– forward auction, for flexible use wireless licenses.
– TV channels will be “repacked” , in order to create contiguous blocks of cleared spectrum
– This auction process is fundamentally incompatible with global harmonisation
– Different outcomes in each country
• Mobile allocation and identification of spectrum at WRC-15
– 470-698MHz: Bahamas, Barbados, Canada, the United States, Mexico and 4 Pacific
islands
– 610- 698MHz: Belize, Canada, Colombia, , Bangladesh, New Zealand
– In the Region 2 countries (the Americas) this band was also given a primary mobile
allocation
– India and Pakistan also wanted to be included, but were blocked.
• Development of a bandplan
– New Zealand has initiated development of a bandplan in ITU-R WP5D.
6. • The bandwidth released will depend on the bids of both broadcasters and mobile
operators
– If more than 2X35MHz, the downlink will be split by Channel 37 (radio astronomy)
– FCC retains option to leave broadcast stations in mobile spectrum in some markets
– Results in stringent blocking requirements for mobile receivers
• Not a good basis for global harmonisation
