Best Practices for Troubleshooting Four Real-world Java Performance IssueseG Innovations
If you are managing or operating Java-based web applications, you have probably heard your users complain many a time that "the application is slow". After spending hours, you find out that the issue was not your application, but with a third party service that your application relies upon. Web application performance issues can also occur due to code problems, database table locks or slowness on the browser, to name a few reasons.
Learn how to troubleshoot four real-world performance issues with Java-based web applications in minutes.
One of the most challenging tasks for a Citrix administrator is when a user calls in to the helpdesk complaining of a Citrix problem: logon is slow, session is getting disconnected, application launch is slow, etc. So, how does a Citrix admin go about solving such issues? A Citrix deployment has many infrastructure tiers and dependencies. Where do you initially focus your investigations, what do you analyze, and how do you triage?
George Spiers, Citrix CTP and EUC Architect, shares his real-world experience to help you learn the art of Citrix troubleshooting.

App Modernization with .NET Core: How Travelers Insurance is Going Cloud-NativeVMware Tanzu
At Travelers Insurance, a decade old rating engine was still on the mainframe, making it difficult to scale, expensive to run, and reliant on a shrinking pool of skilled engineers. Rating engines are fundamental to the insurance quoting process, and at the very heart of the business. It was time to modernize and take advantage of the scalability, stability, automation and fast iteration cycles made possible by cloud-native architecture.
In this webinar, Viraj Naik of Travelers Insurance and Rohit Kelapure of Pivotal will take us on their journey from mainframe to microservices. Viraj and Rohit will describe how they built a distributed, event-driven rating engine with .NET Core on Pivotal Platform using Steeltoe, running on Linux stem cells. The new rating engine exceeded SLAs and reduced time to production to under 60 minutes.
You’ll learn the keys to a successful mainframe rewrite-based modernization, including:
● A pragmatic, domain-driven approach and phased delivery, including implementing a strangler pattern and anti-corruption layers.
● How to port business objects and business rules from mainframe to .NET.
● New innovations developed and delivered during the migration process.

Choosing a Citrix Monitoring Strategy: Key Capabilities and Pitfalls to AvoideG Innovations
Citrix performance monitoring has been gaining a lot of attention and interest. In this presentation, we outline key requirements that any Citrix monitoring solution should support. We analyze the built-in Citrix monitoring tools: Citrix Director, Citrix NetScaler Insight and the Microsoft SCOM management packs and discuss their capabilities and limitations. The need to have at least three different consoles for monitoring a Citrix infrastructure makes monitoring and diagnosis very inefficient. We discuss how the eG Enterprise solution integrates with the built-in Citrix tools and provides 360 degree unified monitoring for a Citrix infrastructure with automated root-cause diagnosis.

Why not let apm do all the heavy lifting beyond the basics of monitoring | Sw...Swatantra Kumar
In a short period, the complexity of technology increased exponentially. The number of frameworks that appear “overnight”, together with new architectural patterns and distributed teams, can pose several challenges. Keeping such a complex landscape in check requires constant monitoring.
Choosing the right monitoring solution, not only for the project but also for the team dynamics, will help to identify the possible areas of improvement. Furthermore, embedding a monitoring solution within the development cycle of a product will help to reduce the number of problems that can appear in each step, and might also help shorten the amount of time generally needed in identifying the area of service disruption.

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.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.
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.

Knowledge engineering: from people to machines and back
Traficon Case Study
1. Traficon, based in Belgium, is a world leader in traffic detection based on video image processing. Their systems detect vehicles and traffic incidents in real time via video cameras and sophisticated algorithms that process the video images. The Traficon system is an end-to-end solution from the camera to the traffic control center. With a rapidly increasing need for these types of intelligent systems, Traficon must keep up with growing customer demands.
CHALLENGE
Customers Require Greater Scalability and Ease of Use
In terms of Traffic Management Software, Traficon was faced with a rising scalability problem. The Traficon R&D team found
it impossible to upgrade their application to scale higher with
the existing EJB2 platform. Future projects were worldwide
and required thousands of cameras. Traficon had to find
a new platform on which they could build a much more
scalable application.
To expand on scalability issues, Traficon AID (Automatic Incident Detection) Systems were expanding and the event processing had to be completely redesigned to meet these new requirements. The new application had to be able to handle data collected from any number of cameras every minute, or even every ten seconds – whatever the customer required. Additionally, system configuration was an issue. One of the greatest concerns of Traficon users is the initial system setup, a previously difficult process which involved tricky configuration
of all the individual cameras.
Cumbersome Development and Test Cycles
Development was also a problem because the Traficon development team had to spend too much time writing infrastructure code, which was not their core competency and detracted from concentrating on the core business of the application. In addition, “the code in the EJB2 environment was not unit testable,” says Wim Deblauwe, R&D Engineer for Traficon. “We could not test anything in isolation. We always had to run the complete system to test anything, which takes

DELIVERING A MORE FRIENDLY, SCALABLE AND RESPONSIVE PRODUCT TO CUSTOMERS
OVERVIEW
“ Our users are dealing with real-time safety issues, and they need a system that enables them to respond fast. If there is a fire in a tunnel, for example, they have to know immediately. Spring and Flex/Flash technology allowed us to develop a much more responsive system.”
