Overcoming Supply Chain Management Solutions with Big Data AnalyticsAlexis Global
Big data enables you to quickly model massive volumes of structured and unstructured data from multiple sources. For supply chain management, this can help increase visibility and provide deeper insights into the entire supply chain. Leveraging big data, your supply chain organizations can improve your response to volatile demand or supply chain risk, for example, and reduce the concerns related to the issue at hand. It will also be crucial for you to evolve your role from transactional facilitator to trusted business advisor.
A Comparative Study of Data Management Maturity ModelsData Crossroads
In this presentation we compare existing Data Management / Data Governance Maturity Models and discuss different approaches to viewing Data Management / Data Governance.
We also present a new model for Data Management which unifies various existing models and provides a fresh perspective on Data Management, its assessment and implementation.

Statistical Programming with JavaScriptDavid Simons
Almost every application needs data to function - and if you don't know how to be nice to your data, then things will start to go wrong. This talk aims to convince JavaScript developers that they do need to care about statistics, and then talk about how to do so. We look at some theory and lots of case studies and real-world advice to deal with a range of scenarios.
The talk aims to touch on the entire data life cycle: We'll dive into data modelling and how the shape and size of your data affects your architecture, and how to build these architectures using JavaScript. Once the data is in the front-end, we'll touch on the wide range of libraries that allows your code to react based on the data, and the wrappers on top that aid visualisation and readability.
Data Modeling & Metadata for Graph DatabasesDATAVERSITY
Graph databases are seeing a spike in popularity as their value in leveraging large data sets for key areas such as fraud detection, marketing, and network optimization become increasingly apparent. With graph databases, it’s been said that ‘the data model and the metadata are the database’. What does this mean in a practical application, and how can this technology be optimized for maximum business value?
Data Modelling is an important tool in the toolbox of a developer. By building and communicating a shared understanding of the domain they're working with, their applications and APIs are more useable and maintainable. However, as you scale up your technical teams, how do you keep these benefits whilst avoiding time-consuming meetings every time something new comes along? This talk reminds ourselves of key data modelling technique and how our use of Kafka changes and informs them. It then examines how these patterns change as more teams join your organisation and how Kafka comes into its own in this world.
From Content Strategy to Drupal Site Building - Connecting the dotsRonald Ashri
Content strategy is, undoubtedly, a hot topic these days. A lot is being said that spans the range from concerns regarding the ability to display content on any device to the ability to drive engagement and increase traffic through better content creation and social media strategies. In this presentation we will connect the dots between these issues and practical Drupal site-building concerns with tools that are readily available now.
We will show, through specific examples and references to available modules, how different approaches to content strategy can be practically implemented on Drupal sites. The aim is to equip Drupal site-builders with a handy toolkit that will allow them to both implement a content strategy for their sites as well as better exchange information with content strategists.
The examples will include:
- Different approaches to building content types so as to empower content creators to create a range of different structures.
- Best practices in using vocabularies (fixed, open, user-generated, moderated, etc) or where alternative categorization methods may be relevant.
We will also discuss:
- Editorial calendars and scheduling.
- The true benefit of workflows (and how, sometimes, they can be a disadvantage).
- Analytics and how the ability to measure the effects of any strategy is as important as defining the strategy itself.
Attendees will go away with practical examples and techniques that they can apply to their sites as well as a better understanding of what content strategy really is and how they can use it to improve their sites.
The examples are a result of our own experiences in helping both clients develop their content strategy as well as applying it on italymagazine.com, an in-house product of ours. We grew italymagazine.com to a relevant online digital brand with a strong community by expressing our content strategy ideas through the tools that Drupal 7 made available to us. The resulting ~250% increase in traffic over 3 months is a testament to both the value of a content strategy as well as the power of Drupal to allow you to flexibly and iteratively support it.

The New Stone continues the subject of inter-dimensional considerations leading to the Ark Mode requirements for remote building. We have begun mapping the properties and interdimensional requirements to begin to show the means to achieve greater property articulation and design impact. Proprietary properties become the mainstay of the Digital Industry. In V1 we discussed the way to package glass media, in V2 we go into the added requirement for instancing in motionable products and in V3 the way to refine products with simulations. We have built the Load statements and encryption to enable our building project in the next paper

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
