Development of internet technology in BangladeshMasum Hussain
Bangladesh is a developing country of South Asia with a huge population of 160 million living within a small geographical boundary of 1,47,570 square kilometers. Bangladesh is popularly known as one of the most densely populated countries of the world where the density rate is 1015 per sq. km. So it's a great challenge for the Bangladesh government to feed up the increasing population as the cultivable lands are decreasing day by day. Moreover providing cloths, accommodation facilities, giving education and health care facilities to the people which are the primary duties of the government are also becoming difficult for the increasing population. Apart from these being a developing country the government can't also affords to set up new industries and create employment opportunities for the people. So it's very difficult for the country to compete with the rising economic powers in the global arena with the burden of this population. But it's a matter of concern that there is no chance of decreasing these problems in upcoming days rather these are turning into a devastating shape. Proper and planned utilization of internet technology can be a nice solution in this regard. Somebody may be surprised to hear this. They may argue that how it's possible to change the overall scenario of the country through using internet technology. Rather they may show the logic against this theory and say that use of technology will accelerate unemployment problems of the country, high cost is involved to use this and expert knowledge is required to avail this facility of modern science. But the reality doesn't match with their imagination. Here I'll try my level best to prove the fact that use of internet technology can be a great medium for the sustainable development of the country through logical explanation from different points of view.

Utilizing Technology to Construct Personalized Learning Experiences
Since the dawn of the computer revolution, the promise of PERSONAL Computing has been ever present. Yet, when we simply leave students to their own devices, technology can serve to depersonalize their experiences. This is especially true of their educational experiences. Meanwhile, as teachers we struggle to effectively manage truly differentiated learning environments. However, this need not be the case. Together, we will explore the possibilities and potential afforded by today’s technology and empower you to utilize technology resources to make learning personal, meaningful, and differentiated for today’s connected students.

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.

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.
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.
