The document discusses different aspects of computer software. It explains that computer hardware requires software programs to function and direct operations. There are two main types of software: systems software like operating systems, and applications software for specific tasks. Applications software can be custom software for large organizations or commercial packages for personal use like word processors and games. The document then focuses on the Microsoft Windows operating environment, describing its graphical user interface and role in facilitating interactions between the user and computer system. It also provides guidelines for evaluating instructional software and online educational resources.

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.

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.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical Futures
Software as an educational resource
1.
2. Whenever people think about computers,
they are most likely thinking about the computer
machine such as the television like monitor
screen, the keyboard to type on, the printer
which produces copies of text-and-graphics
material, and the computer circuits (the central
processing unit) that receives stores data and
directs computer operations.
3. The computer
machine or hardware is
naturally an attention-
getter . It’s more difficult
to realize, however, that
the computer hardware
can hardly be useful
without the program or
system that tells what the
computer machine should
do. This is also called the
software.
4. There are two kinds of software:
The systems software. This is the operating
system that is found or bundled inside all
computer machines .
The applications software . This contains the
system that commands the particular task or
solves a particular problem .
5. In turn the applications software may be:
(a) a custom software that is made for specific
tasks often by large corporations, or
(b) a commercial software packaged for
personal computers that helps with a variety
of task such as writing papers calculating
numbers, drawing graphs, playing games,
and so much more.
6. Microsoft Windows
Also referred to as a program,
Microsoft windows for short is an operating
environment between the user and the
computer operating system. Also called a
shell, it is a layer that creates the way the
computer should work .
7. Windows uses a colorful graphics
interface
(called GUI-pronounced “gooce”)that can be
seen on the computer screen or monitor
whenever the computer is turned on .
8. The user can work with on-screen
pictures (icons) and suggestions (menus) to
arrive at the desired software .Windows 95
(now improved with Windows 2003, 2007)is
a software designed for Microsoft Windows.
9. Actually, Windows is in itself a self-
contained operating system which
provides :
User convenience-just click a file name to
retrieve data or click from program to
program as easy as changing channels in
your TV screen.
A new look-fancy borders, smooth and
streamlined text fonts.
10. Information center-Windows puts all
communications activities (e-mail,
downloads etc. in a single screen
icon);adapts/configures the computer for the
Internet.
Plug and play-configures the computer with
added components, such as for sound and
video.
11. Instructional software
Instructional software
can be visited on the Internet
or should be bought from
software shops or dealers. The
teacher through his school
should decide on the best
computer-based instructional
(CBIs) materials for the school
resource collection .
12. But beware since CBIs need much
improvement, while web-based
educational resources are either
extremely good or what is complete
garbage is evaluating computer-based
educational materials, the following can
serve as guidelines:
13. Be extremely cautious in using CBIs and
‘free’ Internet materials.
Don’t be caught up by attractive
graphics,sound,animation,pictures,video
clips and music forgetting their instructional
worth.
Teachers must evaluate these resources
using sound pedagogical principles.
14. Among design and content elements to
evaluate are text legibility, effective use of
color schemes attractive layout and design,
and easy navigation from section-to-section
(such as from game to tutorial to drill-and-
practice section).
Observe clarity in the explanations and
illustrations of concepts and principles.
