This document discusses how Volume helps businesses optimize their social media presence. It begins by noting that large organizations often have many existing social media accounts across platforms like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn. Volume's approach is to first map out a business's "SociVerse" by categorizing all relevant social media accounts. It then scores each account based on factors like content, activity and audience size. The accounts can then be optimized or consolidated to improve their quality, impact and value. The example provided discusses how Volume helped Oracle Hardware attract users and advocates to its emerging social media real estate after acquiring Sun Microsystems by developing a hub-and-spoke social media marketing model across multiple channels.

It addresses questions about time commitment, communication tools, expectations, and skills needed for online learning. Successful online students are self-motivated, organized, able to manage their time well, and comfortable with computers. While online courses do not meet face-to-face, students are still expected to devote the same time as in-person classes and communicate using online tools like bulletin boards and email. Academic honesty is still required, with no plagiarizing or reusing past work permitted.

Engage! Your Employer Brand Strategy via Social MediaTodd Nilson
Where has all the top talent gone? In the past, the people we wanted to hire for our companies were plentiful and easy to find. Lately, their skills are all wrong, and keeping the talent we already have is harder and harder as well.

During this session, the managing director of social and talent strategies at an IT professional services firm will help you build a strategic framework for social media planning. You'll find out how to define your employer brand, ways to perform and employer brand audit on social media, what a social careers page can do to energize your company's reputation, and how to measure the success of your employer branding efforts to command the attention of your company's C-suite executives.

Finally, strategists should establish plans, policies, and integrations to operationalize social media initiatives.

Communicating an employer’s brand entails a lot more than merely having a careers page on your website and a LinkedIn company profile. All companies have a story to tell, not only about their products and services, but also about why they’re a great (or terrible) place to work. These stories sometimes lurk in the “below the surface” world of word-of-mouth, namely the mouths of employees, of ex-employees, of investors, and of executives. But companies can no longer afford to allow these stories to remain part of the enterprise’s collective subconscious. An employer brand disconnected from the companies other marketing messages, or worse yet ignored, represents real risk that can be experienced as an ever-increasing difficulty when it comes to attracting, hiring and retaining talented employees.
In this presentation, Todd Nilson, a 15-year recruiting consultant and social media strategist, will outline some leading practices for an effective employer branding approach:
* Getting started or Cultural Anthropology for Business
* Laying out your employer brand strategy
* Considerations for integrating your employer brand with your overall marketing and branding efforts
* Matching up your social media campaigns with word of mouth marketing
* Revving up your Careers Pages for maximum effect
* Your active and passive digital employer brand
* Metrics, measurement and accountability for your employer branding

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMsSease
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
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.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

All decoration is completed in the flat sheet with adhesive and tooling operations following. The possibilities for creating unique durable nameplates are endless. How will you create your brand identity? We can help!
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

But this isn’t the business face of the main social-media networks.
We agree! Businesses are successfully using these networks to engage with
4
consumers and companies.
However, setting up your Facebook, Twitter, YouTube accounts and
LinkedIn company profile/groups doesn’t mean you’re good to go.
Volume helps businesses optimise their social-media real
estate to maximise engagement and revenue potential.
Here’s how we do it.
you’ll have multiple social-media accounts
5
If you’re a large organisation, chances are
and social instances (such as blogs) already.
Multiply these by the number of accounts
and social instances your regional colleagues,
partners and affiliates have – you may find
you’ve more than you thought.
So the first step to understanding how you
can best use social media is to map your
‘SociVerse’.
6
First, we map your social-media real estate –
your SociVerse.
Map, Consolidate, Optimise
Then we categorise all relevant social media
accounts and instances into official, unofficial,
endorsed or any other categories.
Each account and instance is then scored based
on its content, activity, size of community and
how easy it is to find. }
Once you have this, you can either optimise or
7
consolidate your accounts to improve their
quality, impact and value.

With your SociVerse mapped and optimised

you can improve and influence your key
social-media touch points.

approach, you can ensure compliance and
Sentiment best practice across your entire social-media
real estate.

The clue is in the word ‘social’!

Social media shouldn’t be isolated or fragmented.
It can, however, be segmented.
Here’s an example of our approach.

Oracle Hardware
After years as a leader in database and
?
? enterprise software, Oracle entered the
?
global enterprise hardware market through
its acquisition of Sun Microsystems.
? ?
Sun already had a large social-media
? footprint, so how could Oracle convert and
? attract Sun users and advocates to its
10
emerging social-media real estate?
? ?
? And how could Oracle convert a ‘social opt-in’
into a genuine lead?
Our answer was to develop a hub-and-spoke approach.
With a new redesigned Facebook page utilising Facebook tabs, apps and
veiled content acting as the ‘hub’, we created new social accounts and
instances and used others identified through the mapping process.
With this multichannel social-media marketing model in place, we
executed an offline and online promotional plan to drive social ‘opt-ins’
11
across different lines of business.
KING!
We created multilingual content Early Outcomes:
assets and managed engagement + Increased ‘marketable’ contacts
