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.
"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.

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.

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.

3. Introduction
This presentation provides an overview
of the
Reasons for software documentation
Types of software documentation
Ways to implement software
documentation
Processes and “Good Ideas”
4. Documentation Requirements
General requirements of all software
documentation
Should provide for communication among
team members
Should act as an information repository to
be used by maintenance engineers
Should provide enough information to
management to allow them to perform all
program management related activities
Should describe to users how to operate
and administer the system
5. In all software projects some amount of
documentation should be created prior to any
code being written
Design docs, etc.
Documentation should continue after the code
has been completed
User’s manuals, etc.
The two main types of documentation created
are Process and Product documents
6. Process Documentation
Used to record and track the
development process
Planning documentation
Cost, Schedule, Funding tracking
Schedules
Standards
Etc.
This documentation is created to allow
for successful management of a software
product
7. Has a relatively short lifespan
Only important to internal development
process
Except in cases where the customer requires
a view into this data
Some items, such as papers that describe
design decisions should be extracted and
moved into the product documentation
category when they become
implemented
8. Product Documentation
Describes the delivered product
Must evolve with the development of
the software product
Two main categories:
System Documentation
User Documentation
9. System Documentation
Describes how the system works, but not how to
operate it
Examples:
Requirements Spec
Architectural Design
Detailed Design
Commented Source Code
Including output such as JavaDoc
Test Plans
Including test cases
V&V plan and results
List of Known Bugs
10. User Documentation has two main types
End User
System Administrator
In some cases these are the same people
The target audience must be well
understood!
11. There are five important areas that should be
documented for a formal release of a
software application
These do not necessarily each have to have their
own document, but the topics should be covered
thoroughly
1. Functional Description of the Software
2. Installation Instructions
3. Introductory Manual
4. Reference Manual
5. System Administrator’s Guide
12. Document Quality
Providing thorough and professional
documentation is important for any size
product development team
The problem is that many software
professionals lack the writing skills to
create professional level documents
13. Document Structure
All documents for a given product should have a
similar structure
A good reason for product standards
The IEEE Standard for User Documentation lists such
a structure
It is a superset of what most documents need
The authors “best practices” are:
1. Put a cover page on all documents
2. Divide documents into chapters with sections and
subsections
3. Add an index if there is lots of reference information
4. Add a glossary to define ambiguous terms
14. Standards
Standards play an important role in the
development, maintenance and
usefulness of documentation
Standards can act as a basis for quality
documentation
But are not good enough on their own
Usually define high level content and
organization
There are three types of documentation
standards ->
15. 1.Process Standards
Define the approach that is to be used
when creating the documentation
Don’t actually define any of the content
of the documents
Draft
Revise Check
Peer Reviews
16. 2. Product Standards
Goal is to have all documents created
for a specific product attain a
consistent structure and appearance
Can be based on organizational or
contractually required standards
Four main types:
1. Documentation Identification Standards
2. Document Structure Standards
3. Document Presentation Standards
4. Document Update Standards
17. One caveat:
Documentation that will be viewed by end
users should be created in a way that is
best consumed and is most attractive to
them
Internal development documentation
generally does not meet this need
18. 3. Interchange Standards
Deals with the creation of documents in a
format that allows others to effectively use
PDF may be good for end users who don’t need to
edit
Word may be good for text editing
Specialized CASE tools need to be considered
This is usually not a problem within a single
organization, but when sharing data between
organizations it can occur
This same problem is faced all the time during
software integration
19. Other Standards
IEEE
Has a published standard for user documentation
Provides a structure and superset of content areas
Many organizations probably won’t create
documents that completely match the standard
Writing Style
Ten “best practices” when writing are provided
Author proposes that group edits of important
documents should occur in a similar fashion to
software walkthroughs
20. Online Documentation
Either internal to the application or Web
based
Requires rethinking the presentation
style since normal “paper”
documentation approaches do not carry
over well
Should act as a supplement to paper
documentation
Biggest benefit of Web docs are that they
are always current
21. Document Preparation
Covers the entire process of creating and
formatting a document for publication
Using specialized (and separate) tools for creating
and preparing documents
This is only important for user documentation
It is often important to have a professional
writer or document publisher evaluate
documents before publication to ensure they
look good and will carry over to paper well
22. Document Storage
Recommended:
File System to store the actual documents
Database to store references to the files
with metadata to allow searching and
referencing
Today it is probably better to use a
content management systems
CVS or Subversion
Free and Open Source
Easy to setup and maintain
23. Conclusion
Good overview of documentation
Though most documentation
“requirements” are based on contract
requirements
Hard to cover things like that in a paper like this
Most of the content seemed to be
referring to user documentation
Design and other similar docs (often times
more graphical than textual) were
overlooked
