Speakers: Howard Greenberg and Paul Della-Nebbia from TLCC
Co-presented with Paul Della-Nebbia at MWLUG 2013. This presentation is all about facets in XPages. It explains the concepts, shows how you're already using facets without realizing it, and shows how to start making use of facets in your own custom controls.
It digs further into how to use facets in developing form tables, data views, and the application layout control.
Finally, it demonstrates why the Dynamic Content facet is a more performant option for dynamic components over the Switch Facet control or just using the Rendered property.

Lessons Learned from a major IBM Collaboration Solutions DeploymentMartijn de Jong
In 2015 IBM deployed the entire IBM Collaboration Suite at a large customer in the financial sector. Both me and my co-speaker were closely involved in this deployment. We presented the lessons learned from this major deployment during the Engage conference in Eindhoven March 2016. This presentation contains lessons learned both from a strategic viewpoint as lessons learned and tips from a technical viewpoint.
An Introduction to the Model-View-Controller PatternTeamstudio
The only constant in software development is CHANGE. Every piece of software that has been developed and shipped to a customer will be changed numerous times during its lifecycle. A good design pattern can help make changes easy. MVC, an acronym for Model - View - Controller, is becoming THE recommended model for designing frameworks - especially on the Web. This webinar will give an overview of design patterns in general, and in particular, MVC.
Ulrich Krause shows how to use the MVC design paradigm in an XPages application and demonstrate how easy it is to implement changes. Need to read/write your data from/to an XML file instead of using a Notes View? MVC makes software maintenance as easy as 1-2-3!
BONUS! During this webinar, Pete Janzen, IBM Product Manager, provides a short update about what's new and upcoming from IBM for XPages and Domino application development.

One Drupal to rule them all - Drupalcamp Londonhernanibf
Dries famous sentence (http://buytaert.net/one-drupal-to-rule-them-all) is becoming a reality for many organisations from small shops to the enterprise space. More and more stakeholders are following the idea of standardising their online presence in Drupal and leverage the same code and infrastructure amongst their different sites. What they are seeking is a drastic reduction in the time needed to create, launch and configure a Drupal site at the same time that they reduce the maintenance effort of the whole sites' network.
To achieve it, a drastic change needs to happen on the standardisation of development processes, more strict control of the overall architecture while supporting new changes and requirements, and repeatable and trustable deployment process to avoid the opposite pitfall of "one site to break them all".
In this session we will look to what needs to be thought when creating such an architecture from the development process to the infrastructure to host the different environments needed. We will look at different solutions that allow maintain these sites factories and walk you through several architectures explaining their advantages and differences.
Finally, we will look in detail to Acquia's Cloud Site Factory, a fully-hosted SaaS solution that allows organisations to quickly deploy and manage websites by the hundreds. Pre-define site templates, create new sites in a single click, manage roles and permissions across sites and connect to existing analytics and data systems.

You'll receive step-by-step instructions on the process from Novell Teaming engineers and experts.
2 Minutes to Learn, A Lifetime to Master - Agile Scrum for CollaborationKathy Brown
One of the co-founders of scrum has said it takes “two minutes to learn, but a lifetime to master”. In this session, Kathy will cover what Agile Scrum actually IS and how you can benefit from using it in your projects. She’ll cover the basic concepts (duration will be slightly longer than two minutes). She will also show you how to avoid common Agile nightmares. Kathy will compare Agile to other project management techniques and demonstrate why Agile is better for you, your stakeholders, your boss, and ultimately your end users. Kathy promises the session will be shorter than the average lifetime in duration.
Domino Designer for Eclipse (DDE) has hundreds, maybe even thousands, of settings and customization options. But do you really know how to make it work well for you? Julian and Kathy will give you their favorite tips and tweaks for using DDE: making it faster, easier to use, and even how to track down some pesky errors. We will show you how to make DDE sing! (Literally, it will sing). Come to this session to get under the hood [bonnet] of DDE and make it do things you never thought it could do.

Opening the Toolbox: Tools for the Domino Developer
It’s always important to have the right tool for the job. You wouldn’t use a screwdriver to hammer in a nail. It might eventually work, but it would take a lot longer. Tradesmen like plumbers and electricians make it look easy, but sometimes it is because they have all of those specialized tools. Kathy will open up the toolbox and show you some of the tools available to make your job as a Domino Developer even easier. Even better, most of the tools are free! She’ll cover tools for agents, XPages, browsers, testing, ideas for building your own tools, and more. It's like a home improvement show for developers!
Learning To Run - XPages for Lotus Notes Client DevelopersKathy Brown
You’re an experienced Lotus Notes developer. You’ve been doing “classic” development for years. You know LotusScript better than your native language. You know @Formula like the back of your hand. But when it comes to Xpages and Javascript, you feel like you’re learning to walk all over again. This session will cover some tips and tricks to get you up and running in Xpages. Learn how to translate what you already know, into what you need to know for Xpages. Find out where to get the information to be just as skillful at Xpages as you are with Notes client development.
When your administrator and your developer are one and the same, and they’re both you, things can get confusing. As the administrator, you’ve got a lot of power. Frequently, the role of administrator is to lock things down, keep the server running smoothly and tune performance. As the developer, you want a lot of power. You want unlimited agents to run anytime you want, as frequently as possible, with little to no limitations! So how do you reconcile these opposing needs when you have to play both roles? We’ll show you how to use separate IDs, location documents and other failsafes to make sure your party of one is successful!

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.
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.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.

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.
