Definition of information science
Information science is that discipline that investigates the properties and behavior of information, the forces governing the flow of information, and the means of processing information for optimum accessibility and usability.
It primarily concerned with the analysis, collection, classification, manipulation, storage, retrieval, movement, dissemination, and protection of information.
This includes the investigation of information representations in both natural and artificial systems, the use of codes for efficient message transmission, and the study of information processing devices and techniques such as computers and their programming systems.
It is an interdisciplinary science derived from and related to such fields as mathematics, logic, linguistics, psychology, computer technology, operations research, the graphic arts, communications, library science, management, and other similar fields. It has both a pure science component, which inquiries into the subject without regard to its application, and an applied science component, which develops services and products."

[Workshop] Building an Integration Agile Digital Enterprise with Open Source ...WSO2
Today, transforming a conventional business into a digital one is essential to increase revenue and productivity. Integrating heterogeneous systems and building an ecosystem with integrated components is a fundamental requirement for this.
Most modern systems support integration with other systems through APIs that are exposed to well-known protocols and standards. However, it is hard to expect all existing systems of an organization to be capable of integrating with other systems. Certain legacy systems will only be replaced a few years down the line.
Therefore, the challenge is to drive all these existing systems towards integration. In this half-day workshop, we will discuss how you can use the lean, enterprise-ready, and high-performing WSO2 Integration platform to solve integration and innovation challenges that organizations face when performing brownfield integration.
Discussion topics include:
- The benefits of using open source technologies
- Managing an API lifecycle with open source technologies
- Upleveling brownfield integration with open source technologies
- Customer identity and access management with open source technologies

Building the Future Together: AtoM3, Governance, and the Sustainability of Op...Artefactual Systems - AtoM
Slides accompanying a presentation given by Dan Gillean on June 7th, 2018 at Open Repositories 2018, held in Bozeman, MT.
Access to Memory is a web-based open source application for standards based description and access. AtoM was first released in 2008 and much of the codebase is now relying on deprecated frameworks and libraries – and at the same time, new standards and technologies are changing how our profession approaches description and access. Currently Artefactual Systems, a Canadian based company, uses a services model to support the project. Artefactual is looking ahead to AtoM3, and considering building a linked data driven platform for archival description and access. As we consider AtoM's next generation, we are also examining governance and maintenance models to sustain the project and better empower our user community as Artefactual wasn't originally intended to be AtoM's organizational home. This presentation will offer some thoughts on existing open source project governance models, challenges, and possibilities for the future. How do we ensure community engagement and project sustainability over time?
Questioning Authority Lookup Service: Linking the DataSimeon Warner
One segment of a presentation "From idea to implementation: BIBFRAME becomes reality", Charleston, 2022
The implementation of BIBFRAME in active cataloguing workflows and linked data exchange environments is live and it’s evolving across several paths that are often intertwined. This complex bibliographic ecosystem consists of many experiences that the speakers will present highlighting their value both as autonomous endeavours, as well as from the perspective of interaction and options for mutual integration.
The Library of Congress, with the BIBFRAME original cataloguing editor, Marva, will report about developments and achievements for bringing BIBFRAME into practice in a very large library environment with many cataloguing workflows for diverse types of resources, encompassing the use of and adjustments to the BIBFRAME ontology and its modelling.
On the topic of original and copy cataloguing in linked data, Stanford and Cornell Universities are working to achieve a dynamic form of cataloguing through the implementation of Sinopia linked data editor and enrichment tools such as the Questioning Authority that queries authoritative sources to support linked data authorities.
Regarding the impact of linked data processes on the user experience, the University of Pennsylvania has contributed a study describing the functionalities and scenarios which the Share-VDE 2.0 entity discovery system https://www.svde.org/ addresses, and the ways in which user feedback is supporting the evolution of linked data discovery.
Share-VDE (SVDE) is an international library-driven initiative which brings together the bibliographic catalogues and authority files of a community of libraries in an innovative entity discovery environment based on linked data. A path towards the integration of SVDE with the local library services at the University of Pennsylvania and with the Sinopia environment is ongoing. Being a linked open data node, SVDE supports various levels of interoperability and also provides additional tools like the J.Cricket entity editor based on BIBFRAME that opens up new forms of cooperation among libraries to manage and maintain linked data entities.
OCFL: A Shared Approach to Preservation PersistenceSimeon Warner
A lightning talk at the CNI Fall Forum 2022: The Oxford Common File Layout (OCFL) is an application-independent method for storing and versioning content for digital preservation. Version 1.1 was released in October 2022, including backwards compatible corrections and clarifications based on implementation experience and community feedback. The session will recap goals, summarize changes in v1.1, and survey current implementations.
The Oxford Common File Layout: A common approach to digital preservationSimeon Warner
The Oxford Common File Layout (OCFL) specification began as a discussion at a Fedora/Samvera Camp held at Oxford University in September of 2017. Since then, it has grown into a focused community effort to define an open and application-independent approach to the long-term preservation of digital objects. Developed for structured, transparent, and predictable storage, it is designed to promote sustainable long-term access and management of content within digital repositories. This presentation will focus on the motivations and vision for the OCFL, explain key choices for the specification, and describe the status of implementation efforts.

Mind the gap! Reflections on the state of repository data harvestingSimeon Warner
A 24x7 presentation at Open Repositories 2017 in Brisbane, Australia.
I start with an opinionated history of the evolution of repository data harvesting since the late 1990's to the present. A conclusion is that we are currently in danger of creating a repository environment with fewer cross-repository services than before, with the potential to reinforce the silos we hope to open. I suggest that the community needs to agree upon a new solution, and further suggest that solution should be ResourceSync.
Who's the Author? Identifier soup - ORCID, ISNI, LC NACO and VIAFSimeon Warner
Identifiers, including ORCID, ISNI, LC NACO and VIAF, are playing an increasing role in library authority work. Well describe changes to cataloging practices to leverage identifiers. We'll then tell a short story of the how and why of ORCID identifiers for researchers, and relationships with other person identifiers. Finally, we'll discuss the use of identifiers as part of moves toward linked data cataloging being explored in Linked Data for Libraries work (in the LD4L Labs and LD4P projects).

First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

Why React Native as a Strategic Advantage for Startup Innovation.pdfayushiqss
Do you know that React Native is being increasingly adopted by startups as well as big companies in the mobile app development industry? Big names like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest have already integrated this robust open-source framework.
In fact, according to a report by Statista, the number of React Native developers has been steadily increasing over the years, reaching an estimated 1.9 million by the end of 2024. This means that the demand for this framework in the job market has been growing making it a valuable skill.
But what makes React Native so popular for mobile application development? It offers excellent cross-platform capabilities among other benefits. This way, with React Native, developers can write code once and run it on both iOS and Android devices thus saving time and resources leading to shorter development cycles hence faster time-to-market for your app.
Let’s take the example of a startup, which wanted to release their app on both iOS and Android at once. Through the use of React Native they managed to create an app and bring it into the market within a very short period. This helped them gain an advantage over their competitors because they had access to a large user base who were able to generate revenue quickly for them.

Gamify Your Mind; The Secret Sauce to Delivering Success, Continuously Improv...Shahin Sheidaei
Games are powerful teaching tools, fostering hands-on engagement and fun. But they require careful consideration to succeed. Join me to explore factors in running and selecting games, ensuring they serve as effective teaching tools. Learn to maintain focus on learning objectives while playing, and how to measure the ROI of gaming in education. Discover strategies for pitching gaming to leadership. This session offers insights, tips, and examples for coaches, team leads, and enterprise leaders seeking to teach from simple to complex concepts.
In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
