Yahoo! Open Strategy Overview
Yahoo! Open Strategy overview presented at Yahoo! Open Hack 2008 on September 12, 2008 by Neal Sample and Cody Simms.
Foreign-language Reviews: Help or Hindrance? (Slides)
Full paper at http://scott.hale.us/pubs/?chi2017
The number and quality of user reviews greatly affects consumer purchasing decisions. While reviews in all languages are increasing, it is still often the case (especially for non-English speakers) that there are only a few reviews in a person’s first language. Using an online experiment, we examine the value that potential purchasers receive from interfaces showing additional reviews in a second language. The results paint a complicated picture with both positive and negative reactions to the inclusion of foreign-language reviews. Roughly 26–28\% of subjects clicked to see translations of the foreign-language content when given the opportunity, and those who did so were more likely to select the product with foreign-language reviews than those who did not.

RFPs - Fundamentally Broken? Search Insider Summit 5-8-09
Is it time for the RFP to RIP? Take a journey through Google images for a cynical look at the SEM client/agency RFP process and ways to improve it.
The Cultural Linked Data Backbone
The presentation discusses OCLC's efforts to create a cultural linked data backbone by connecting library data through open linked data standards. It provides examples of existing linked data projects like VIAF, Dewey, and WorldCat and outlines OCLC's work to publish 270 million WorldCat resources as linked open data using the Schema.org vocabulary. The presentation argues that linking library data in this way allows the world's libraries to be more connected on the web.
Linked data and the web of data: for libraries?
The document discusses how libraries have a long history of shared innovation through tools like catalog cards, cooperative cataloguing, MARC, Z39.50, OpenURL, and international standards. It then outlines how the web has enabled further connections through technologies like HTML, URLs, hyperlinks, and HTTP. The web allows documents and data to link to each other across domains through mechanisms like hyperlinks and APIs.
Linked data in libraries: another fad or paradigm shift?
Linked data is the current hot topic in library technology, but is it just a passing trend or a game changer for how we handle and deliver library metadata? With the Library of Congress moving forward with BIBFRAME, OCLC publishing linked data, ALA hosting RDA in RDF “Jane-a-thons,” and numerous grant funded linked data projects in libraries — the evidence strongly supports that we are at the brink of a metadata movement that will dramatically effect our work. This talk will explore the basic principles of linked data, as well as its current and potential application in libraries. What will our library catalogs look like in a linked data environment? How will our workflows change? And most importantly, how will it effect our library users?
Linked data and the future of libraries
The document discusses a presentation given by OCLC and LYRASIS on linked data and what it means for the future of libraries. It provides an overview of linked data concepts, including defining linked data as using the web to connect related data and lower barriers to linking data. It outlines some of the key principles of linked data, and discusses how linked data can benefit libraries by making data more reusable, efficient to maintain and discoverable. It also notes some of the challenges libraries may face in changing workflows and maintaining information provenance with linked data.
Linked Data: What’s the Story?
Roy Tennant, Senior Program Officer, OCLC Research
As library collections shift from print materials to digital formats, and as the web enables ubiquitous and instantaneous discovery of information, library users expect to find and access materials online. It’s not enough to have pages “on the web”; library data must be “woven into the web” and integrated into the sites and services that library users frequent daily – Google, Wikipedia, social networks. When information about a library’s collection is locked up behind a specific web site (such as an OPAC), it is often exceedingly difficult for services, such as search engines, to consume that data. Information seekers need to be connected back to their local library resources from wherever they are on the web. The imperative is to make library data available in new data formats that are native to the web, exposing it to the wider web community, making it easily discoverable by other sites, services, and ultimately consumers. Roy Tennant will shed light on what linked data is and how to re-envision, expose and share library data as entities that are part of the web.

The Linked Data Journey - Observations of a fellow traveller
The document discusses the evolution of the web from a network of linked documents to a network of linked data. It outlines the development of semantic web standards and technologies from 2001 to 2007. It then discusses how linked data principles were adopted by organizations like the BBC to publish their data on the open web in structured formats like RDF. The document proposes a three step process for publishing data as linked data: 1) get your data out for others to use, 2) represent your data in an open, linkable format like RDF, and 3) link your data to other datasets on the web.

New Castle County - Social Media Primer
This document discusses social media and provides examples of how organizations are using social media. It begins with definitions of social media and reasons for using social media such as increasing collaboration and improving communication. It then provides statistics on social media usage by age group and demographics. Examples are given of how government agencies like FEMA and NIH are using social media for initiatives like raising awareness and sharing health information. The document concludes with a case study of how the Department of Homeland Security uses an internal social media platform called IdeaFactory to engage employees.
Yahoo Google Stock Comparison
This document compares key financial ratios of Google and Yahoo from 2005 to 2007. The ratios show that Yahoo's financial condition is declining, with lower returns on equity and assets, and earnings per share. In contrast, Google has become much more profitable over this period based on higher profit margins and EPS. The stock prices mirror these trends, with Google's stock climbing since 2005 while Yahoo's has fallen.
Data 2.0 - Harnessing New Data Visualization Tools CIL 2008
What happens when you combine data and Web 2.0?
Mountains of data are piling up in libraries and corporate intranets, but how do we say it visually and make data more useful? Fichter looks at new online tools that enable sharing, analysis, and data visualization to show trends, associations and new insights on your library website that quickly engage, inform, and empower your customers to create their own visualizations. Tools such as Many Eyes go beyond the data visualization and tap into the social dimension encouraging sharing, collaboration, and reuse. Fichter talks about what happens when data goes “social.” From visual dictionaries, textual analysis of works of fiction, to star size and nutritional components of Big Macs, hop on board for this fast-paced look at an amazing set of tools that are at your fingertips.
Yahoo Open Platform Stack
The document discusses authorization and security strategies for social platforms, including OpenID and OAuth for authentication, Yahoo Query Language (YQL) for data discovery, and approaches like iframes and Caja for front-end security. It also covers the OpenSocial API for standardizing social features across platforms, Yahoo's Updates Firehose for searching social updates in real-time, and how Yahoo's platform is built on these open technologies.
Mashups & Data Visualizations: The New Breed of Web Applications
Web 2.0 is opening the doors to tools and toolkits for do-it-yourself (DIY) programming that requires no knowledge about programming. Find out what mashups are and how libraries are making use of them to create rich, new information services and content. Look at some of the intriguing and robust new data visualization tools, such as IBM’s alphworks, swivel, gapminder (bought by Google), etc. that can put the power of spreadsheets online for everyone in your organization to present their information as tag clouds, bar and pie charts, bubble maps, and more.
Presented by Darlene Fichter October 31, 2007 at Internet Librarian 2007
Opening up Yahoo! to Users and Developers

Today our services enable developers to access Yahoo! properties as diverse as Web search, maps, Flickr, comparison shopping, and many more -- and we're making more available all the time. In this session you'll learn how you can incorporate Yahoo! Web services in your application or Web site, and see a demonstration of integration between Yahoo! Web Services, the new Yahoo! Presentation Library, and ASP.NET "Atlas".
Open Social Presentation - GSP West 2008
More details at http://wordpress.chanezon.com/?p=29
Today Kevin Marks (Google), Chris Schalk (Google), Lou Moore (Hi5) and myself presented OpenSocial at the Graphing Social Patterns West 2008 conference.
GSP is a great conference to talk about OpenSocial: all the attendees are involved in some sort of social networking software, and are very receptive to OpenSocial. Congrats to Dave McClure and the O’Reilly team for organizing it.
It was a great opportunity to have the 3 OpenSocial developer advocates from Google on stage at the same time, usually we all travel to different conferences. I made an introduction about OpenSocial, Chris described the API, showed code and did a demo of PixWall on Orkut, Kevin talked about Shindig and Caja, and demoed Shindig working in the Eclipse debugger.
And Lou Moore from Hi5 showed all the cool extensions to OpenSocial that Hi5 has made: for example he demoed PixWall taking advantage of the Photo API that Hi5 makes available, that allows an application developer to let the user pick a picture from one of their Hi5 Photo albums. Thanks Lou.
Exploring the Use of Linked Data to Bridge State and Federal Archives
The document discusses using linked data to connect archives across state and federal institutions. It describes the Civil War Data 150 Project which maps metadata from diverse Civil War-era sources into the semantic web platform Freebase to enable users to add and modify shared metadata. The project aims to increase discovery of and engagement with archival materials through crowdsourcing around the 150th anniversary of the American Civil War.

YAP, Open Hack Day, Bangalore 2011
YAP (Yahoo! Application Platform) allows developers to build web applications accessible across Yahoo properties. It uses a browser/server programming model where JavaScript code runs in the browser and makes requests to the YAP engine. The YAP engine then communicates with Yahoo APIs or other open APIs and returns information to the browser. Key benefits of building for YAP include tapping into Yahoo's large user base and built-in discovery across Yahoo sites. Developers can get started by creating a gadget XML file and previewing/launching their app. YAP supports features like OpenSocial, YML, and YUI to add functionality while remaining secure through the Caja system.
Yahoo for the Masses
Internal training presentation about how I go about advocating Yahoo to the outside world and what gets me pretty excited about our developer offers at the moment.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.Fueling AI with Great Data with Airbyte Webinar

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
