A gadget is a small technological object (such as a device or an appliance) that has a particular function, but is often thought of as a novelty. Gadgets are invariably considered to be more unusually or cleverly designed than normal technological objects at the time of their invention. Gadgets are sometimes also referred to as gizmos.

Many organizations are now investing in the development of web interfaces for their existing (and new) Notes/Domino applications. Now is the perfect time to start paying down on the technical debt we have accumulated to ensure that we don’t pass on an unsustainable software development deficit to those that will follow. With this presentation we will challenge the notion that trickle down development based on XPages is the next logical step in that evolution. While XPages still has a place in the world of modern Domino development we will explore new approaches and alternative technologies that have the potential to deliver a brighter prosperous.
From "mobile last" to "mobile first” -- a Pragmatic Approach to Responsive De...Tatjana Salcedo
Responsive web design is taking higher ed web development by storm. This session will cover how the University of Vermont recently converted their existing fixed-width web design into a responsive one using a mobile-first strategy. We'll discuss both the advantages (and disadvantages) of the mobile first approach as well as tips and techniques used to create a nimble foundation for rapidly converting fixed width sites to responsive ones throughout the institution. In addition, we'll reveal a post launch assessment of the effectiveness and performance of the responsive design.
What does the world look like in the year 2025? Digital living evangelist, Lindsay Smith, explores the communications and technology journey that has revolutionized the 21st century.
Are you ready for the changes that will come in this lifetime?
Mind the Gap: Designing the Space Between DevicesJosh Clark
There's untapped magic in the gaps between gadgets. Multi-screen design is a preoccupying problem as we try to fit our content into many different screens. But as devices multiply, the new opportunity is less about designing individual screens but designing interactions BETWEEN them—often without using a screen at all. Learn to create web and app experiences that share control among multiple devices, designing not only for screens but for sensors. The technology is already here in our pockets, handbags, and living rooms. Learn how to use it right now.
Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology research, spoke about the skills requirements for jobs in the future at the International Telecommunications Union’s “capacity building symposium” for digital technologies. He discussed the changing structure of jobs and the broad labor force and the attitudes of Americans about the likely changes that robots, artificial intelligence (AI) and other advances in digital life will create in workplaces. The session took place in Santo Domingo on June 18, 2018.
As Notes turns 25 we look at the future for this Rapid Application Development Platform. Notes has been pronounced dead by many over the years and yet it still lives on. In this session we look at other technologies that have lived on or suddenly died out to find clues on what the future may hold for Notes.

Creating exceptional experiences in a multi-devices worldReading Room
Mobile browsing of digital content is now exceeding desktop consumption. Google is penalising websites that don’t have a mobile versions of their site. Some companies have responded by taking a 'Mobile First' approach in their digital strategy.
Often 'Mobile First' is shorthand for designing layouts for a smaller screen, but that is just a part of the story, after all we are designing services for people not layouts for devices.
The proliferation of devices and capabilities of mobile devices provides a range of exciting opportunities, your site visitors now have a personal device that incorporates GPS, push notifications and a camera in their pocket, this extends the capability of web experiences.
In this webinar Neil Shewan explores current trends in experience strategy, tactics and design and helps put them into context to provide you with a simple, and proven approach to deliver better experiences for your audiences.

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.

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.
In his public lecture, Christian Timmerer provides insights into the fascinating history of video streaming, starting from its humble beginnings before YouTube to the groundbreaking technologies that now dominate platforms like Netflix and ORF ON.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

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.

3. “If this site doesn’t work on
mobile, we will not use it”
It started with a quote from a 19 year old in a user research workshop.
This is alongside the worst sales figures for PCs in 20 years, whilst
mobile and tablet sales are soaring.
4. Are we witnesses to the death of the PC?
Is the PC as we know it being killed? And If so – then whodunnit?
What would Hercule Poirot do? Let’s investigate the facts of the case...
5. Chart credit: Benedict Evans of Enders Analysis
Smartphone sales have been soaring – but that didn’t hurt PC sales.
It was the release of tablets that has caused the slide.
The slide is specifically in consumer PCs not Corporate PCs
6. What do
tablets
represent?
When Apple released the iPad people joked that it was a big iPhone.
It isn’t – its more like a small, lightweight, touch-screen laptop.
Most of us still regard tablets as a ‘secondary device’, but for how long?
7. They may be secondary devices...
but people aren’t replacing their PC anymore
Chart credit: Tech-thoughts.net
There is a clear correlation between the advent of smartphones and
tablets and a dramatic increase in the replacement cycle for PCs .
Tablets may be secondary devices, but many people are buying one
rather than updating their home PC.
8. This is my desktop PC
I haven’t owned a desktop computer for over a decade
I plug my laptop into a screen and a keyboard at work.
What prevents me doing the same with a tablet?
9. Processing power
Software availability
Local Storage
Enterprise compatibility
Connectivity
So the PC is safe... for now... Or is it?
These are some of the commonly quoted barriers to tablets becomming
a true PC replacement.
10. Issue for tablets For business PCs For consumer PCs
Lower processing
power
Unless you’re a
designer – do you
actually need it?
If you play 3D games
Software availability MS Office still
dominates
+ corp databases
I just need a
replacement for
Word and Excel
No local storage Is certainly useful What’s wrong with
the cloud?
Connectivity What do you
regularly connect?
Buy an adaptor or
use bluetooth
Enterprise
compatibility
Essential I don’t care
Barriers to tablets as PC replacements
How many of these are really barriers? For many home users, tablets
are already “good enough” as a PC replacement
11. So what happens next...?
If tablets really are about to kill off consumer PCs – then here are a few
things I think we should take into account in our projects
12. #takeaway: Screen size is only part of the picture
Think about the interface and the context of usage
13. #takeaway: We use touch interfaces differently to PCs
More inquisitive and experimental ... tap anything damn it!
14. #takeaway: I just need to focus on iPad users? ... Wrong
Q2 2011 Apple had 81% of the market... Q2 2013 it has 39%
15. #takeaway: Context of usage is very different to PC
Couch is the most common, followed by using it in bed....
17. For PCs : “This is not the end. It is not even the beginning
of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning”
18. Google research on context of usage for tablets
