VOGIN IP 2021 Workshop “Hoe kom ik nu aan de full-text? – Actueler dan ooit, ...Guus van den Brekel
Thuiswerken en off-campus toegang tot wetenschappelijk informatie en bibliotheekdiensten is crucialer dan ooit door Corona. Daarnaast is toegang tot tijdschriften erg prijzig en veel instituten hebben niet de middelen om een licentie op alles te nemen. Vooral organisaties buiten de academische wereld worstelen met toegang tot onderzoek. Bovendien moeten de organisaties met toegang de vraag stellen, wat zullen we doen als we plotseling de toegang tot een reeks tijdschriften verliezen omdat het abonnement is geannuleerd? Als de bibliotheek een artikel niet kan leveren, weten we dat onze gebruikers andere manieren zullen gebruiken om de pdf te krijgen. Echter, deze andere manieren bespreken we bijna nooit. Hoeveel verschillende manieren zijn er precies? Hoe werken ze? Hoe kan ik het groeiende aantal open access-artikelen -die her en der verspreid zijn over het web- op de meest efficiënte manier vinden?
Deelnemers aan de workshop leren over alle mogelijke manieren en hulpmiddelen en krijgen tips om de full-tekst te vinden van wetenschappelijke publicaties. We bespreken “best practices” van bibliotheek-tools en diensten (Linkresolvers, Discovery, LeanLibrary, LibX, Apps, etc.) en testen vooral alle alternatieve tools zoals EndNote Click (voorheen Kopernio), Unpaywall, CORE Discovery, OpenAccess-Button, LibKey Nomad, Google Scholar-Button en andere extensies of bookmarklets.

The technologies and people we are designing experiences for are constantly changing, in most cases they are changing at a rate that is difficult keep up with. When we think about how our teams are structured and the design processes we use in light of this challenge, a new design problem (or problem space) emerges, one that requires us to focus inward. How do we structure our teams and processes to be resilient? What would happen if we looked at our teams and design process as IA’s, Designers, Researchers? What strategies would we put in place to help them be successful? This talk will look at challenges we face leading, supporting, or simply being a part of design teams creating experiences for user groups with changing technological needs.

Accessibility: It's never been easier to achieve -- and never more importantApex CoVantage
Creating accessible publications is not only the right thing to do, but it can be good for your bottom line. Now, with EPUB accessibility specifications and guidelines, publishers have a baseline for accessibility that is clear, achievable, and easier than ever to integrate into current publishing workflows.

This presentation provides an overview of causes why library and information services are fading out of sight for most user groups and how these users and their expectations have changed without us realizing. It contains a strong plea for a focus shift for librarians, but in fact also for companies and organisations. A focus into the environments where the users are, instead of expecting them to come to us, or our resources. Exploration of all relevant user environments for your organization, the use of new web-based technologies with Web 2.0 elements and certainly a more structural technical re-design of (library) information systems is required to deliver your services and resources at the place of need. A simple short-term solution like a QuickSearch Library Toolbar is explained, several other tools to “enrich” the user’s personal search environment, as well as the more long-term ongoing work at the Libraries of the University of Groningen and the Central Medical Library of the University Medical Center Groningen.

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.

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.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

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).

STM Tech Trends: Outlook 2020
THE TECHNOLOGY FLOODGATES ARE OPEN
Kindly sponsored by
It’s not
just about text.
And almost all of this
depends on Web
technologies.
8. Minor update to HTML 5 on 1 Nov. 2016
Mostly fine-tuning to align with actual practice.
A few new elements, like <details> and <summary>,
for info users can choose whether or not to read.
Removed some features, mostly very technical.
A few changes, like <figcaption> anywhere in <figure>.
HTML 5.2 is being worked on, due late 2017.
This will continue to evolve.
This is a good thing!
HTML 5.1
9. Working toward print-quality rendering.
“Grid” and “flexbox” for complex layouts.
CSS variables and the “calc” function for adaptability.
New font features for sophisticated display.
MS is working on a new spec for table behavior;
goal is interoperability among browsers.
These will help make complex (STM!) content
more reliable and responsive.
CSS is modular: ongoing progress.
CSS
10. The Web Publication Vision:
ONE PUBLICATION FOR BOTH
ONLINE AND OFFLINE USE.
The same content in two different “states”:
Offline, packaged or cached;
Online, with all essential resources linked.
A canonical URL that leads to both.
11. Wouldn’t it be great if
there was no difference between
an online publication
and an EPUB?
14. EPUB 3 has become essential
to the publishing ecosystem
E-Readers
It’s the “master format” for virtually all systems.
15. EPUB 3 has become essential

E-Readers
It’s the “master format” for virtually all systems.
Accessibility
It’s the format for interchange of accessible content.

Global
Widely adopted in US, EU, Far East, Israel.
19. We want to avoid two competing specs.
These need to be the same thing.
Could be one master spec,
or a layered spec with “profiles”:
e.g., PWP as a profile of a WP (a type of WP),
and “EPUB 4” in turn as a profile of PWP
(like EPUB for Education is for EPUB),
a type of PWP requiring more predictability,
accessibility, archivability.
EPUB 4 vs. (P)WP

This is why
we’re working on
combining the IDPF
into the W3C.
21. Publishing Business Group
Provides a formal voice for publishing in the W3C.
Dues are comparable to IDPF dues.
IDPF members are automatically members
for two years at current IDPF dues.
Publishing Working Group
Full participation in W3C standards at W3C dues.
EPUB 3 Community Group
Free to all; maintains EPUB 3.
Here’s the plan.
23. People are afraid publishers
will become “lost” in the W3C.
This plan is designed to ensure
that publishers have
an even greater presence and influence
and can participate
at costs that even
small publishers can bear.
25. Tightens up EPUB 3 without breaking it.
New spec format, better integrated.
Deprecates unused features of EPUB 3.0.
Clarifies/extends support for remote resources
(e.g., metadata, fonts, datasets).
Improves CSS behavior between author/RS/user.
Improved and stricter accessibility support.
Expected to advance to member vote
as final Recommended Spec on Thursday.
EPUB 3.1
26. Better alignment with OWP.
Undated references to HTML & SVG to stay in synch.
No EPUB CSS profile; uses CSS WG “official definition.”
Some metadata improvements.
Prioritizes linked bibliographic metadata records.
Deprecates @refines attribute and adds
more explicit attributes for specific functionality.
Final notice on NCX.
Slated for removal in next major revision of EPUB.
EPUB 3.1
27. EPUB in Microsoft Edge
Read EPUBs natively just as you can with PDFs.
HTML5-based version of Woodwing
Magazine industry’s leading production system
moves from proprietary to OWP software.
VitalSource Content Studio
Easy cloud-based creation of complex
educational media as EPUB 3.
IBM adopts EPUB 3 for all documents
Significant move away from PDF.
EPUB is Not Just for Books!
29. Separate spec devoted to accessibility.
Clear guidelines to enable certification of accessibility
and discovery of accessible features in an EPUB.
Based on WCAG 2.0: A is must, AA is recommended.
Adds publication-specific requirements.
Requires accessibility-specific metadata.
Techniques document provides “how to do it” advice.
Applicable and referenceable by
any version of EPUB and other specs too.
EPUB Accessibility 1.0
30. Categories of compliance.
“Discovery-Enabled”: Just metadata.
“Accessible”: MD + WCAG 2.0 + EPUB requirements.
“Optimized”: Metadata + specific features.
Metadata aligned with schema.org.
accessMode (textual, visual, auditory, tactile).
accessibilityFeature (what features does it have).
accessibilityHazard (e.g., flashing can cause seizures).
accessibilitySummary (human-readable explanation).
accessModeSufficient (e.g. text + alt text = textual).
EPUB Accessibility 1.0
32. W3C Web Annotation Working Group
Web Annotation Data Model
Web Annotation Vocabulary
Web Annotation Protocol
Provide interoperable “data structures” for annotations:
Can exchange annotations between systems.
Can store annotations on an annotation server.
Put annotations on text, images, videos, etc.
Final recommendations to pub in February.
Annotations
33. Annotating All Knowledge
Coalition of over 70 scholarly publishers, platforms,
libraries, and technology organizations.
Open source, standards-based, supports key formats
(HTML, PDF, EPUB, images, video and data).
Ambitious 3-year timeline:
Pilots at JSTOR, arXiv, eLife, etc.
Force11: Community Platform, Working Group.
Annotations
34. Ambitious AAK 3-Year Timeline
Year 1, Design & Build: Interview users, run
experiments, gather requirements. Discussions w/ key
platforms. Ship standards. Write software.
Year 2, Deploy: Make annotation available with
articles, books and other media objects.
Year 3, Market: Drive adoption through partnerships
and targeted programs.

36. IIIF: The International Image
Interoperability Framework
A Community . . .
Over 600 national libraries, research institutions,
museums, tech firms, aggregators, and projects.
. . . that creates APIs . . .
Image (the pixels); Presentation (human readable info);
Authentication (almost finished); Search (to come).
. . . that it uses to create interoperable services.
Focusing on providing a good UX.
Interoperable Images
37. Image API
URL and identifier for image; can express regions,
size, mirror, rotation, rights info, multiple versions.
Presentation API
Structure, properties (labels, rights, technical info, links),
can associate transcription, translation, commentary,
etc. with regions of an image.
Working on Audio, Video; 3D in future
All based on Web technologies, including Annotations.
Interoperable Images
