The cognitive advantage
Cognitive computing is quickly emerging as a transformative technology that enables
organizations to gain business advantage. Also referred to as artificial intelligence (AI), cognitive
technology augments human expertise to unlock new intelligence from vast quantities of data and
to develop deep, predictive insights at scale. This shift to systems that can reason and learn is
especially germane to the bottom line; the cognitive era is here in large part because it makes
practical business sense.
The cognitive advantage: Insights from early adopters on driving business valueSusanne Hupfer, Ph.D.
Wondering how and why forward-thinking businesses are already adopting cognitive computing and artificial intelligence technologies? Curious about the top business challenges organizations are tackling with cognitive computing? The "IBM Cognitive Study," which surveyed 600 leaders and decision-makers from around the world, provides answers to these questions and more. About 70% of decision-makers say that cognitive computing is extremely important to their business strategy and success.

IT’S TIME
TO GET TO KNOW
CLOUD-NATIVE
While more than half (58%) of cloud-native leaders
know a lot about the technology, only 1% of laggards
say the same.
For companies already leveraging cloud-native, the
commitment is strong – and growing. Leaders report
that more than 68% of their apps are supported with
cloud-native technology, and close to three-quarters of
respondents (72%) believe that by the end of 2023 the
majority of their apps will be built that way.
However, while the growth in cloud-native development
is universally expected, 53% of all respondents still claim
to be, at best, “somewhat familiar” with the topic.
This lack of knowledge is likely behind the lack of action.
When looking at cloud-native laggards, just over one in
three (34%) have formally evaluated the technology.
Half (50%) have engaged only in informal analysis, and
15% of laggards have given it no consideration at all

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

The AI market is now on an exponential growth curve, expected to grow from $2.5
billion in 2014 to more than $12.5 billion by 2019.1 By 2018, over 50% of developer
teams will embed AI services in their apps,2 and it is expected that half of all
consumers will interact with the technology on a regular basis.
To understand how early adopters are taking advantage of AI, we garnered
insights from more than 600 decision makers worldwide, cross-industry, from IT
to line of business, at various stages of cognitive adoption.
We learned that organizations already gain major competitive advantage from
their use of AI. They achieve a range of business outcomes–from customer
engagement to productivity and efficiency and business growth. And a key
strategy for many of these organizations making inroads with AI initiatives is to let
their developers lead the charge.
