Conclusion
The Databrella Project proposes an interactive public art installation in Portland that maps real-time traffic, weather, and social media data onto the underside of a large umbrella. Mobile users could interact with and help compose the visuals and sounds produced. The umbrella would be about 25 feet in diameter and composed of LED lights and wiring that would change colors based on the data and interactions selected. The umbrella handle would be made from recycled cell phones that play animal sounds.
This document provides a brief history of human-computer interaction (HCI). It discusses early developments like Vannevar Bush's 1945 proposal for the Memex, Ivan Sutherland's 1963 Sketchpad system which introduced the first graphical user interface, and Doug Engelbart's 1968 "Mother of All Demos" which debuted elements like the mouse, hyperlinks, and word processing. It then covers the 1970s work at Xerox PARC that influenced Apple and Microsoft, as well as the launches of the Apple Lisa in 1983, Macintosh in 1984, and Windows 2.0 in 1987. Finally, it outlines common interface paradigms like command-line, GUI/WIMP, and advanced interfaces.

A SuperMinds 2014 Talk by Jan Derboven (iMinds - CUO - KU Leuven).
'Smart' has become a key term in today's technology: digital devices are increasingly getting better at responding to people in an intelligent way. We all have smart devices that track our behaviour, and use that information to anticipate specific situations, react intelligently, and even talk to us. In a world with devices that understand us and know what we mean, the gap between dumb technology and smart people seems to be narrowing. What does this mean for the design of our technology? Jan Derboven will discuss user control and transparency in the design of smart technologies today, and in the future.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

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).

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAUpanagenda
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away
