Sex, Circuits, and Deep House

    Bunnie Huang ( Sutajio Ko-Usagi PTE LTD)
    Talk of 20 minutes
Last year at Burning Man 2015, we demonstrated an open hardware & software, 900 MHz radio-connected platform based on our Orchard IoT platform in the form of a conference badge. The badges bore a circular set of LEDs which would flash in a pattern unique to that badge. Attendees with other badges customized their light patterns by finding badges with patterns they like and "having sex" with them. The description of the light patterns is based on a diploid genome, and the process of breeding lights is modeled after the biological process of having sex. The overall protocol to exchange light genomes was designed to require explicit consent of both parties, thus layering a social experiment on top of a hardware experiment. By requiring explicit consent, the badges also served as an icebreaker and a seed for many fun conversations.

      Davide Storti ( UNESCO)
      Keynote of 20 minutes
    The YouthMobile Initiative builds on the experience of many worldwide initiatives that introduce young people to computer science programming (learning-to-code) and problem solving (coding-to-learn). It also seeks to build on experiences targeting young women who are vastly underrepresented in this field. Finally it builds on the consideration that for millions of young people, the smartphone in their pocket is a very powerful computer, it will be their only computer, and they use it for nearly every aspect of their lives: communicating, learning, taking pictures, and playing games.

    #NefertitiHack and Cultural Commons "The Other Nefertiti"

      Jan Nikolai Nelles ( Artist of "The Other Nefertiti")
      Talk of 20 minutes
    “The Other Nefertiti” is an artistic intervention by Jan Nikolai Nelles and Nora Al- Badri which went viral. “With the data leak as a part of this counter narrative within our investigative practice we want to activate the artefact, to inspire a critical re-assessment of today’s conditions and to overcome the colonial notion of possession in Germany's museums”. With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .

      Legalese.io: smart contracts, dumb lawyers, and you

        Meng Weng Wong ( Legalese.io)
        Talk of 20 minutes
      Legalese helps entrepreneurs take the law into their own hands, by turning contracts into templates, configuration, and code – all on Github. Instead of paying lawyers for access to their proprietary precedents, founders and freelancers can use opensource tools to draft their own NDAs, ESOPs, and angel/seed investment agreements. After a short demo of the system we escalate quickly into a review of the 30-year history of legal informatics, deontic calculi, and programming language theory which Legalese is now productizing with its own DSL.

                        Unleash the potential of NVDIMM Namespaces

                          Parmeshwr Prasad ( dell)
                          Talk of 20 minutes
                        NVDIMM is very hot topic now a days. It has many fabulous features. One of them is namespaces. NVDIMM support block and persistent memory name spaces. Both has different advantages and use cases. Namespaces may have attributes unavailable through other means, like different block sizes for block devices, the choice of powerfail write atomicity, and the ability. Let’s understand block window, BTT, SPA and their challenges in this session. I will cover how NVDIMM is solving modern memory requirement. Based on its ability to fill the gap between cache memory and SSD. I will cover how Linux community is proceeding to solve namespaces in NVDIMM.

                        Treasure Hunts, Indoor Navigation and the Physical Web: Adventures in JavaScript and Bluetooth Beacons

                          Shwetank Dixit ( Opera)
                          Talk of 20 minutes
                        The number of electronic devices we have around us is gigantic. We need a new interaction model to deal with all these devices, and having a separate native app for each device is impractical. The concept of the ‘Physical Web’ attempts to assign devices with their very own URL, which can be accessed by everyone using their web browser. This opens up a lot of possibilities for developers to create new and amazing applications, taking the user’s immediate physical presence into play. We’ll take a look at some use cases, including, but not limited to treasure hunts, contact sharing and indoor navigation. We’ll dive deep into how JavaScript can be used along with Bluetooth-LE and the Eddystone protocol to create great web apps, and understand the concepts at hand.

                          Kushal Das ( Fedora Project)
                          Talk of 20 minutes
                        Micro Bit (or micro:bit) is an ARM-based embedded system designed by the BBC for use in computer education in the UK. It will be given to every 11 year old student in UK. MicroPython is an "official" solution for the micro:bit. The Python Software Foundation are one of the partners in the project and the BBC asked us to provide such a solution (ntoll is leading the efforts from the PSF side of things). "Mu" is a community generated (i.e. from the Python community) editor that *initially* targets the micro:bit. In the wider Python context, there's been talk of a kid/teacher/beginner friendly editor that's recommended for Python "in general". Plans are afoot to make "mu" meet this requirement.

                              Talk of 20 minutes
                            As the internet trickles through society it starts to transform the very places where people live. Some think it can change cities in this century as much as electricity did in the last one. The governments of the world, the weary giants of flesh and steel, also tap into this new home. This talk will step away from the computer screen to look at the design patterns of current toolchains for the so-called "smart city" and their implications. Is there a way the free/libre open (source software) spirit can be baked into the infrastructure that society runs on?

                              Talk of 20 minutes
                            Who controls the hardware own's the hardware! Vendors taking more and more power of our devices with no return for us - the end user. They want to decide what software it runs on the hardware they sell to us. Why? Because of security. Security means to prevent the user from owning the device and gives the vendor more power to feel good. This security also restricts the usage of hardware to a certain use case. The open source world has shown there are a lot more use cases than advertised with any given hardware. The talk also gives a short overview of coreboot and how coreboot can solve some problems.

                              Workshop of 1 hour
                            Organisational budgets are shrinking and stakeholders are putting increasing pressure on public sector organisations to be efficient without jeopardising service delivery. There is a multitude of ways to share and reuse software amongst organisations and the public sector employs (and has employed) a variety of different approaches. This session will specifically focus on open source software and the factors influencing the adoption of open source software within public sector organisations. The primary objective of the session is to explore open source software benefits for public sector organisations, discuss the current state of adoption, and review the motivators and a-motivators affecting adoption. A secondary objective of the session is to investigate where organisations are utilising open source software and whether organisations consider open source software as a means of achieving business goals.

                                  Open Detection (OD) is a novel standalone open source project for object detection and recognition in images and 3D point clouds. Open Detection is released under the terms of the BSD license, and thus free for commercial and research use. The project was originated under Google Summer of Code 2015 with the aim of having a vision tool for robotics (in particular for Robocomp, an open source robotics framework). The library is built with a very specific goal - to answer the fundamental problem of Computer Vision - Object Recognition and Detection. We make available to everyone the existing solution in this direction in a common, intuitive and user-friendly APIs.

                                      Talk of 20 minutes
                                    I developed an extension - Collaborative Spelling Dictionary, during my intern with the Wikimedia Foundation under the Outreach program of Gnome. After my intern, I created issues in the same extension for newbies to fix and guided them constantly giving them an easy and smooth entry into the open source community. I also mentored the extension's issues in Google Code In this year and had several students submitting their patches for the same, successfully closing number of the open issues. I'll use the opportunity to explain and demonstrate this extension to the FOSSASIA attendees and talk about the step by step process involved in building an extension. This would particularly be useful for anyone aiming to work on and develop extensions to be used for any wiki-project (which are already quite popular these days). Moreover, the extension still has scope for further development. In order to be able to contribute to the extension, it is important to understand how the extension works currently, so I would like to explain about this project and its code architecture and also discuss the possible features and their implementations during my talk. I also plan on giving a demo of my work on my laptop (if time allows) so that the audience gets a better idea about the project.

                                        Ring, a project from Savoir-faire Linux, creators of SFLphone, uses a distributed hash table instead of a central SIP server to find other users. This peer-to-peer network is also accessible from other applications using the project's OpenDHT library. Signaling protocols, like SIP, XMPP and IAX, typically rely on central servers to help users locate each other and initiate sessions. Ring is an evolved version of the SFLphone SIP client adding support for true peer-to-peer calling without any central server. The peer-to-peer network transport is implemented using the OpenDHT library, making it a universal solution that can be used for any arbitrary real-time signalling requirement from any application.

                                            Yaniv will present overview of oVirt, Foreman and Katello, then will dive into how oVirt integrates with Foreman and Katello to ease different flows in variant systems and data-centers. oVirt 3.5 integration with Foreman allows us to bring new bare-metal hardware to a fully operational hypervisor in one click. In oVirt 3.6 we introduce an integration with Katello to allow oVirt users to see available updates (ERRATA) on hosts and VMs that are managed by Foreman, and in addition on the oVirt engine machine itself. This gives oVirt users a wider view of the updates available for both the virtualized and infrastructure resources. The integration between the projects is still in progress and we plan add functionality to it for better management options for various entities in the data-center hardware - such as provision phase, package management, configurations control and upgrade flows.

                                            Containers and Docker are quite the rage, and people are comparing to the their lightweight approach compared with traditional virtualization (e.g. with KVM). This talk will dispel some myths, and introduce the concepts of hardware- and operating-system- level virtualization. Will also list pros and cons of both the approaches.

                                            Globalization is a collaborative work done by internationalizing, localizing your software. Most developers write software code but they used to forgot to internationalize their software. This talk will present what is mean by Globalization, why is it important. Then we will look at what Localization is and how to add internationalization in your code by showing some code examples. We will look into what translation platforms are available which is also important part of Globalization.

                                            Containers are a hot topic on Linux. In this talk I'd like to give a quick overview what systemd provides in the area of containers, how it integrates with the various container managers, and how to use systemd's own minimal container manager systemd-nspawn. I'd like to specifically focus on the more recent changes in the area, and how this functionality has been adopted by the rkt container runtime.

                                                How a combination of technical and social engineering has led to a multi-million lexical database, accessible for all. It has over two million words in 150 languages, organized into concepts and linked in a semantic network. The data is downloadable and available as linked open data. Every year we add tens of thousands of new senses (concept-word pairs), and richer links between them. We will talk about how we organize the data, how we freed it and the Python API for accessing it.

                                                      Lightning talks are designed to be short presentations between five to ten minutes long, but are usually capped at five minutes. Most conferences will allot a segment of roughly 30 to 90 minutes long to speakers. Talks are arranged one after the other during the sessions. The talks are usually given at conferences in order for the event to have many speakers discuss a multitude of topics. The conferences are held in order for individuals to be able to share their ideas and concepts to people who have experience in the specific field. Lightning talks are brief which requires the speaker to make his or her point clearly and rid the presentation of non-critical information. This causes the audience to be more attentive to the speaker and gain a broader array of knowledge from the presentations given.

                                                        Lightning Talk
                                                      Anomaly detection is very important problem and extensive research has been done about it’s various applications and domains. In this report I’ve documented my research on anomaly detection in cloud computing architectures like OpenStack, Microsoft Azure & Amazon Web Services(AWS). Cloud computing systems create a big jungle of Logs and Metrics and these can provide a cloud operator tremendous insight into the systems and answer the most important questions about architecture’s health. My research shows that cloud computing architectures face completely different types of anomalies than discussed in other domains and these metrics are not very useful if used in single dimension but if we perform anomaly detection on multiple dimensions together and correlate thus generated insights with Logs we can increase our efficiency and decrease false positive cases by a huge margin. When dealing with this amount of logs and metrics we need to come up with novel distributed architectures. In this research I’ve focused on multiple dimensional anomaly detection on storm like distributed system using locality sensitive hashing and sequence mining. I hope that this research will provide us with a better understanding of different directions in which research and implementations have been done on the domain of anomaly detection, and how techniques which are proposed and implemented for a domain can be applied in different domains for which it was not initially intended to begin with.

Following that I will demonstrate the final result of integration between LabPlot and Cantor. I will demonstrate with the help of few python and maxima scripts what a user can do using the LabPlot. I will also give a brief about what will be its future, how this functionality will eventually help users and how can others start contributing to the code. I will then put some light on the other two projects. Firstly, Ming Ngo added visualization of 3D-data to LabPlot using the powerful VTK library. This helped data to be visualized as points in 3D-space, curves and surfaces. Another project by Ankit Wagarde, he added a very useful tool to LabPlot that allows users to extract data from images. After importing of an image and setting the reference points, the user starts to select the data points on the image that get automatically converted into numbers.

                                                      FarmMind Technologies ==================== 1 PROBLEM STATEMENT ---------------------------------------------- This smart centralized system will help farmers to take a step into precision agriculture being monitored by wireless sensors in and around their farms. This covers problems like irrigation management, crop maintenance, soil fertility maintenance, crop yield improvement, pesticide management in compliance with good agricultural practices. 2 WORK FLOW ---------------------------- The innovation focuses on developing a smart centralized system to control different requirements for a farm per crop being grown. An IoT based system integrates the cloud AI services with that of the hardware and sensors in the farms / fields which constantly stream real-time information to the servers. Depending on various other parameters like humidity, temperature and other meteorological data, predictions of the requirements of the farm is calculated and the hardware device which automatically opens the valves for irrigation / warns the farmer about doing a scheduled check in the localized language is made via SMS. This provides a centralized GIS collection of the soil data allowing extensive research and work by the agricultural scientists to guide the farmers in a given area for the crop they're growing. Simultaneously it provides the data for governments to optimize on the water irrigation routes / canals so that other drought struck areas can ensure water in times of need. The hardware solution consists of various sensors connected to the GSM chip module on board which allows the farmers to irrigate the farms when needed or transmit data to the required scientists/soil experts in the area who could help. • It keeps updating the data base on parameters such as soil temperature, humidity, air temperature, determine frost and heat events, forecast harvest time. • It maps the fields from phone using GPS and input field sampling information. • This systems aims for mobile first and cloud first implementation. • It integrates pest management system by observing, inspecting, and identifying certain trends in the pests and pesticides. It keeps the track record. • Last but not the least, it proposes high yielding plans and best crop management plans even under disasters. 3 FIELDS ARE THE NEW OFFICES AND DATA IS DRIVING THE TRACTORS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are trying to use the emerging Cloud based technologies in AI, machine learning and big data to solve important problems as well as to get the problem notified to the related person in real time. This system allows farmers to monitor and maintain the quality of their farms by sitting at their home just using simple services like SMS in case there is no internet connectivity present in the area or by using the app built for android phones. The hardware is also sending data of the farm to the agricultural scientists who can use it to make data driven decisions. Integrations with the other meteorological information helps to offer the best advice for irrigation. This system can also be used to inform the farmers in a particular area in case of an agricultural outbreak risk in that area. The other solutions include animal breeding and maintaining the data informing the farmers about the required medication needed for the cattle. Mainly focuses on reliable, safety, interoperable, low cost implementation.

                                                      Real time tracking systems are expensive and difficult to maintain, at the same time they take a lot of network resources like 4G/3G/2G data for the mapping to a real world location. In developing countries like India where the internet is still expensive. This is exactly where our IoT platform steps in, with a mission to build a scalable and extensible real time tracking system. We would be having a small IoT device installed in your vehicle which would able to transfer data back and forth to the server. It will help in tracking different vehicles in real time. It would be scalable to any possible vehicle runs on the road. For example, Truck owner would able to track his Trucks travelling in different part of the country, it will give him power to not only track his vehicles but also notifies him during vehicle accident. This technology is the future of the Shipping Industry, Land-Cargo Industry and also for personal use for tracking your vehicle or in the case of car-theft.

                                                        Lightning Talk
                                                      ExpressJS is one of the best NodeJS web application framework that provides a robust set of features for web and mobile applications. Lots of NodeJS developer use it as their main web application framework. They have their own coding-style for the application route and also its middleware. Now, imagine if there are several backend engineers, developing a big web application and they never write any code documentation, only in several function/method. If there's a new engineer join the development, he/she has been given tasks by their lead engineer to enhance several endpoints and they don't know the flow of the endpoint. Hence, it will consume more time for new engineer to read other engineers code. That's why PipaJS come to the rescue. PipaJS is a module for ExpressJS which will help developers to understand the flow of each route by just reading the route and its middleware flow.

                                                      Tracking fuel level in a gas cylinder is still an unexplored area where age old practices are followed to measure and track in developing countries like India, China, Pakistan, Bangladesh and many more. Gas-o-Gauge is an IoT based application which uses a Load sensor and a GPRS module in an embedded system to track and poll level of fuel to a server on cloud. It enables users and vendors to track and decide gas cylinder stock in a smart way. With the increasing interconnection between people’s lives and the devices that they interact with in their daily lives, this IoT device is a scalable platform that allows users to integrate their daily kitchen needs and consumption to provide real time data for business intelligence to gas agencies and vendors as well as integrate daily requirements like ordering groceries, recipe trackers, restaurants listing during a low gas level as well as instructions and resources to drive/ride to the location. This prototype has been the runner up at the Indian School of Business, engineering design awards. Link for Opensource Repository: https://github.com/kranthikiran01/Gas-o-Gauge.git

This will take the audience through the advantages/disadvantages to pick up this language as well as what difficulties(technical) I faced while learning this in a short time. This talk will also target the functioning of sTeam and how these "enhancements" were done (code wise) and the strategies applied to get it to work. Lastly, it will also encourage students to take up GSoC and Google code-in to boost their knowledge domain and be a part of the open source community.

                                                      JSPM is the javascript package manager from future. It natively supports the new ES2015 module loader. When compared to other package managers like Browserify and Webpack, JSPM shines by supporting all the existing module loading configuration like commonJS, AMD, ES2015. It also allows to bundle the package for production, hence doing away with grunt, gulp or any other task runner. Under the hood it is powered by SystemJS to load the packages. Inside, it is nothing but a polyfill for the proposed ES2015 module loader, to make good use of the future javascript today. JSPM is going to be at the forefront of package/dependency management in the long run as hacks like minification and bundling soon become unnecessary in an attempt to make our web applications faster.

                                                      Spatial data mining is the process of discovering interesting, useful, non-trivial patterns from large spatial datasets. A growing attention has been paid to spatial data mining and knowledge discovery (SDMKD). This paper presents the principles of SDMKD, proposes three new techniques, and gives their applicability and examples. First, the motivation of SDMKD is briefed. Second, the intension and extension of SDMKD concept are presented. Third, three new techniques are proposed in this section, i.e. SDMKD-based image classification that integrates spatial inductive learning from GIS database and Bayesian classification, cloud model that integrates randomness and fuzziness, data field that radiate the energy of observed data to the universe discourse. Fourth, applicability and examples are studied on three cases. The first is remote sensing classification, the second is landslide-monitoring data mining, and the third is uncertain reasoning. Finally, the whole paper is concluded and discussed.

                                                        Talk of 20 minutes
                                                      The Node.JS & npm ecosystem is oft praised for it's "culture of extreme modularity", which has led to the proliferation of hundreds of thousands packages on npm. How do modular patterns translate into the construction of evolving, real-world applications? Many functional programming learning resources will teach you to write functional code, but it's often highly indirect, deeply abstracted, requires understanding complex relationships between custom library calls, and doesn't represent the reality of how people actually write JavaScript. The goal of this workshop is to create realistic problems that can be solved using terse, vanilla, idiomatic JavaScript.

                                                        Talk of 20 minutes
                                                      The OpenMRS platform and core modules are worked on by a central team of contributors who design and release these features through coordinated communication. But there are over 200 publicly available modules that have been developed to work on OpenMRS by over 500 different developers/organizations who maintain it without much coordination between themselves. There are modules that have moved between maintainers. Implementations of EHR systems have customized, release forks of modules in the true spirit of a bazaar model. There are over 25 projects that started in the OpenMRS community but have become their own companies, platforms, distributions that are used by implementers in over 50 countries. This fragmented community allows for freedom, but wastes resources, creates difficulties for new implementers and results in friction and dissatisfaction in the community. As central OpenMRS leadership, we have planned a certification process that will allow better management and governance of the community, but still improving the freedom of contributors to fork and establish smaller, specialized communities of practice. The talk summarizes the historical divergence due to forks and communities of practice, by showing evolution of the community over last 10yrs. Later in the talk I discuss how the certification process brings visibility, coordination and accessibility to new members of the community.

                                                        Talk of 20 minutes
                                                      At FOSDEM 2013, leading developers of free real-time communications software dared to get up on stage and ask the question "Can we replace Skype, Viber, Twitter and Facebook?". Was this the right question and how does it relate to free software development today and in the future? Pocock talks about what has changed since then and where things are going in this domain in the year ahead, especially with the emergence of WebRTC and the ubiquity of browsers that support it and the opportunities this has created for the world of web development and interaction with other open systems. Can you imagine a world where phone communication works with all the benefits of email (but without spam)? Per-minute charges eliminated, flexibility for developers to customize the experience with standard scripting languages like Python or JavaScript and organizations of any size able to assert their identity and brand securely using SIP and XMPP addresses? Is this a worthwhile vision? What do each of us - developers, sysadmins and end users - need to do to make it happen? What will be the alternative outcome - for both society in general and fans of free technology in particular - if we stand back and allow proprietary solutions to run rampant? This session will survey some of the free software solutions that exist today and ways you can participate in their improvement and deployment to help realize this vision.

Clearly there’s a demand for Android app development, and it’s turning the platform with the lovable green mascot into more and more of a strong first choice rather than just a secondary option. So if you’ve been intent on, thinking about, or simply playing with the idea of learning Android… Make Your First Android App is here for you! The session aims at introducing budding developers with the basic concepts and terminology in Android Development. It shall begin from scratch and discuss how to setup the environment and build a very own personal Android App with a Splash Screen for starters.

Our main aim of this project is to give the total guidance for the blind.Have you all ever thought of the problems faced by the blind people? No will be the answer unless otherwise you are a blind.Even we didn't realise the problems before starting our project.First we started with listing down the problems faced by the blind people and then started finding the solutions for it. So we came up with the following problems. 1. Difficulty in finding the obstructions on their path. 2. Difficulty in reading the road signs and traffic signals.So they can't either drive or walk safely on the road. 3. Difficulty in reading the price tag.So sellers can cheat them. 4. Difficulty in reading books.Since all the books are not translated to Braille letters. 5. Can't watch TV. So we divided these problems into easy, advance and crazy to work on it.First we started working on the basic problems.The first solution we came up was using ultrasonic sensors to detect the obstructions.We created an app which is user friendly (blind person just have to tap) to give the voice output.So we just fixed 3 ultra sonic sensors( per shoe front,back,left/right) and depending on the sensor output the voice will be given as output.Still we have problem in detecting in hanging obstructions and pits.We are trying to replace something with shoe which can fulfil all the conditions.Within a span of two weeks we have completed this task.Further we are working with image processing, machine learning and artificial intelligence to find the solutions for reading road signs(Image processing) and traffic signals(Colour recognition), reading books(Text to speech conversion) and finally for watching TV. As an engineer I suggest others also to work on the projects which would help the highly needed people. Because we never know the problems faced by the poor people and differently-able people. And they don't have enough knowledge or capability to work on their own problems. ------------------------------------------ Problem Background: Corneal Blindness is one of the most common causes of blindness in India. India shoulders the largest burden of global blindness, about 3.5 million across the country with 30000 new cases being added each year. People who are visually impaired face no shortage of problems in India, where living with disabilities can be especially challenging. Pedestrians are often forced off of side walks that are cluttered with vendors, animals and other obstacles. And because of the difficulty of moving independently, accessing services is also difficult. Blind people typically use canes, of course, but the traditional cane can't detect objects higher than the waist. Problem Statement: The problem is now to provide them with an alternative guide to the cane, a guide with a more human like approach. Proposed Solution: Our proposed solution is to develop shoes starting from the most basic level to a highly advanced AI version of those shoes. The steps are as follows: ⦁ Develop a model of shoes with 4 sensors for 4 different directions. These sensors can be distance or IR Led ones. A microcontroller interface would be in place to transmit voice messages through a communications module to the headset of the person wearing the shoes. ⦁ In the intermediate stage the model would contain 4 cameras instead of sensors. The camera’s working on basic image processing would be able to make out textures, landscapes and obstructions to a degree as defined by the manufacturer. ⦁ The final stage would involve trying to get the shoes to define the situations it are placed in by themselves using image processing and machine learning. End users: The blind people around the world. Since our final product doesn't make use of smart/mobile phone, the person who can use it need not be aware of it. The output will be given as sound through headsets. Devices: Shoes, 4 cameras, 4 sensors, headset, a micro controller and other electronic components Platforms, Technologies to be used: Machine learning in Matlab using image processing, interfacing camera, sensor and headset Data set, tools, resources useful in developing solution: Can choose any image processing tools and other technologies.

I'm going to give details about the processes and the machines used to achieve production at that scale. I'll also discuss some popular case studies like Foxconn manufacturing line for Apple. It will be insightful for start-ups to understand the the ecosystem and challenges when you manufacture at scale and the challenges to bring a product from a prototype to production stage.

It can be achieved with handheld antennas but (a) this is more difficult than it needs to be and (b) this limits your ability to communicate in marginal conditions. Building a rotator/elevator that is capable of automatically tracking a satellite across the sky frees up one hand which simplifies the process and increases pointing precision, meaning that you're better able to communicate in marginal conditions than you would be with a handheld antenna. In this talk I'll describe my build of the "Tricked-Out WRAPS" system and, if we're really lucky, demonstrate it live.

It is heavily supported and worked on today by Samsung Electronics and community. It has already shipped several million products and is expanding. The goal is for it to be a real community effort between OEMs and all other interested parties to have a truly free and open operating system that can be used to develop products without restrictions. This will introduce what Tizen is, some of its history and where it is going, but will try and aim to be more of an interactive session to answer questions and gather feedback. Bring your curiosity and positivity and perhaps we can all build a better future for our gadgets together.

Repository can be found at: https://github.com/kres/zygote The idea was to make IoT development as simple as Lego, i.e. connecting blocks to build a system. In this case the system is made out of sensors, actuators and are connected to the cloud. The user visualizes all the sensor and actuator endpoints as simple building blocks on the browser. Interconnecting these blocks virtually on the browser creates a actual data flow in the real world (basically over the air configuration of all sensors and actuators). The user can then add triggers, events, timers, filters to the flow to create more complex IoT systems. The top three highlights of the framework: * Setting up the IoT application can be completely visual. i.e. no programming required. (But code can be added if the user wants to) * The system can work over any wired/wireless medium - like bluetooth, WiFi, Zigbee, etc. * The framework is platform neutral. Though it is been developed on the Beaglebone Black, it will run fine on Raspberry Pi, Cubie board, etc. Not limited by the hardware. During the proposed talk I will be talking about design and implementation of the project including the challenges we faced, sample application and future work. This work was presented at an International IEEE conference held in IIT Madras earlier this year.

Nuclear physics experiments are included in undergraduate and graduate Physics syllabus of many Indian universities. However, the required facilities are scarce due to high cost of the equipment and difficulties in obtaining radioactive sources. To provide an effective solution to this problem Phoenix project of IUAC, New Delhi (www.iuac.res.in) has developed some open source set-ups for nuclear physics experiments. In this presentation we will be discussing about Alpha Spectrometer, Multi Channel Analyser Radiation Detection System and USB Geiger Müller Counter. All the development is open sourced and major part of the software is written in python.

The Raspberry Pi and circuit components are relatively inexpensive, making it a good project for students who want to learn more about hardware and circuitry, and see a physical manifestation of how software can interface with hardware. In the talk, we will go though both the hardware and software aspects of using GPIO, as well as how the project can be further enhanced for other practical IoT purposes.

As participants in global projects build upon each others ideas and inventions to be able to innovate in an iterative manner, a culture of co-opetition is emerging which allows companies to successfully collaborate and compete at the same time. As part of this evolution from silo'd invention inside individual companies to collaborative project-based innovation, a parallel culture of patent non-aggression has developed through the creation of the Open Invention Network (OIN) which over the last 10 years has grown into the largest patent non-aggression community in the history of technology. Keeping pace with the growth and proliferation of Linux and other OSS-based platforms into key markets such as mobile, home, auto and finance, OIN has doubled in size twice over the past 36 months and now is a community of over 2,000 entities and individuals explicitly committed to patent non-aggression in core technologies that enable innovation in these new markets/sectors. The how and why of OIN's successful expansion and the benefits of participation in this free community will be discussed.

Software Patents turns out to be very difficult and vague to many of the developers. In this talk we will go through a software patent, and try to identify the key parts and the legal aspect of the same. Intellectual Property and different kinds of the same. When one can acquire different types of intellectual property rights at the same time for the different parts of the same property. * Face of a patent (the metadata legal department cares a lot about) * Inventor, and inventorship * Can we destroy a patent? (Hint: talk to the owner) * Synopsis of the Patent * Title, abstract, and figures * The thick part (the body of the patent, or as we call it "specification") * The claims (Heart of the patent) * Indentation :) Unless and until a software patent is tested, in a court of law, by running of it, it is impossible to say if something matches with the claim of the patent or not. At the end of the talk we will go through various other resources which one can visit from where one can learn more.

Specifically, it tries to safeguard the Linux open-source software ecosystem. It is time we work together to expand the safeguard.

                                                                                                                Menghsuan Tsai ( National Cheng Kung University)
                                                                                                                Talk of 20 minutes
                                                                                                              As a student, we want to raise the awareness of using open source software online for free. The environment of using the open source software in Taiwan is monopolized by expensive software, such as Microsoft series, Adobe and Photoshop. People seldom get a chance to realize that they actually have easy access to resources online which is free and much more convenient. Moreover, most of the budget of our country is used to buy the copyrights of software packages, but in practice we only use the basic functions of them. Simply put, we waste a lot of money buying something which is unnecessary. We discover it is the language barrier that makes people in Taiwan less likely to use open source software programs. Getting the deeper understanding of the serious problem we faced with, we come up with some solutions. Using big data to analyze vocabularies which are used frequently, we gather the information to indicate language barriers. Moreover, we can list out all the words which is hard for people, so that engineers can use the software and check the vocabularies at the same time. By using methods to remember the vocabularies, engineers can easily use the software. We can even use big data to analyze the steps which are used frequently and visualize them as a report. Like, we make a brief introduction to summarize the basic functions. So people only need to recognize the steps and check it through the introduction when they need. We launch a workshop to teach them step by step in English how to use the open source software. By enhancing engineers’ English ability, now we can create a community to start influencing the general public. We create a community to overcome the language barrier and to change the habits of Taiwanese for using software. We start from NCKU and share with other schools. We create a platform for sharing the information of updated software. By translating the information from the internet like opensource.com, we provide not only the materials for target group, but also chances to the general public to know the advantages of open source software. On the other hand, we translate the video of “opensoucephysics” to use the materials in our education system. By using the interesting videos and materials, teachers can inspire students to think outside the box and use their imagination to understand some difficult science concepts in classes. Furthermore, we can integrate the education materials with “ezgo” and provide a chance for students to begin self-learning. We use three main methods to promote the use of open source software. First, we are going to launch a program which is composed of different schools such as NCKU, NCTU and NTU to create an engineering social media. Second, we cooperate with the professors and schools to open a course to invite students to join our translating program. Third, we create a social media and launch “hour of translate” and invite friends to join us. Furthermore, we cooperate with the summer and winter camps to share our passion for open source software. To promote our ideas, we submit the application to teach for classes in other level of schools, such as elementary schools, junior schools and high schools. It is necessary a waste that we seldom make the most of free resources online. We spend a lot of budget buying the software which is replaceable and deal with problems in an ineffective way. That is why we start this project to help others in an efficient way.

You can report issues to browser vendors today, through bug trackers or other feedback mechanisms, some public and some not. But frequently you cannot see the results of such a report—or see what related issues others have reported. It can feel like a black hole experience. This talk is about introduction to webcompat.com, where we provide simple, open interface to web compatibility issues that affect us all as users of the web, regardless of our browsers or devices of choice. Perhaps more importantly, we hope to foster and enable a community of people who are passionate about a web for everyone to help out.

Interfacing easily with other systems. 6. contunuously adapted to the changing business. 7. Yes slowly because businesses are very conservative 8. Total open source for every part of the total installation. 9. data bases sharable. 10. devops for continuous deployment and more.....

At FOSDEM 2013, leading developers of free real-time communications software dared to get up on stage and ask the question "Can we replace Skype, Viber, Twitter and Facebook?". Was this the right question and how does it relate to free software development today and in the future? Pocock talks about what has changed since then and where things are going in this domain in the year ahead, especially with the emergence of WebRTC and the ubiquity of browsers that support it and the opportunities this has created for the world of web development and interaction with other open systems.

Let's stop fighting about whether we should implement the strictest interpretation of REST or how pragmatic REST-ful design is the only way to go, or debate about what REST is or what it should be. A couple of demos (In Golang! Yay!) will be shown that are guaranteed to open up your eyes and see that the dawn of liberation for product developers is finally here. Background: GraphQL is a data query language and runtime designed and used at Facebook to request and deliver data to mobile and web apps since 2012. Hafiz Ismail (@sogko) is an active contributor to Go / Golang implementation of GraphQL server library (https://github.com/graphql-go/graphql) and is looking to encourage fellow developers to join in the collaborative effort.

I would want to introduce another approach to IoT, i.e, using the Firefox OS. Firefox OS is written using the web technologies only and the simple JavaScript API makes it very easy to interact with the sensors and hardware. This will be a beginners to intermediates work to learn what is IoT & how to get started with IoT using the Firefox OS.

OSM is the Free Wiki World Map – an openly licensed map of the world being created by volunteers using local knowledge, GPS tracks and donated sources. One of the online tools developed by HOT to assist this effort is the Export Tool, which creates custom OSM downloads in a number of file formats for various regions around the world. The user can simply choose an area of geographic interest, select the OSM features they wish to export and specify a file format. This export can then be used on a variety of GIS tools such as ArcMap, QGIS, Google Earth, the OsmAnd mobile app and the Garmin GPS device. The ability to easily obtain updated OSM data can greatly contribute to relief efforts on the ground, as well as being used for personal interests, business ventures and research purposes. In the case of the devastating earthquake that shook Nepal in April 2015, post-disaster road and building data from OSM was used to manoeuvre people and supplies to where they were most needed.

In this process coala makes research available for production immediately and combines rapid prototyping with instant usability. coala also facilitates people entering the world of open source by providing them valuable feedback on coding standards and formatting in one consistent way for all languages.

It also seeks to build on experiences targeting young women who are vastly underrepresented in this field. Finally it builds on the consideration that for millions of young people, the smartphone in their pocket is a very powerful computer, it will be their only computer, and they use it for nearly every aspect of their lives: communicating, learning, taking pictures, and playing games.

Each participant can stay up to 20 min, as to let other people have a chance at making.

It is a text-editing device that lets the user do text editing by means of touch and hearing, without eyesight. It is an ongoing project and the goal of the project is to come up with an assistive device that enables the visually challenged to edit text effectively, and with open-source code + design files such that anyone interested can build one themselves.

This peer-to-peer network is also accessible from other applications using the project's OpenDHT library. Signaling protocols, like SIP, XMPP and IAX, typically rely on central servers to help users locate each other and initiate sessions. Ring is an evolved version of the SFLphone SIP client adding support for true peer-to-peer calling without any central server. The peer-to-peer network transport is implemented using the OpenDHT library, making it a universal solution that can be used for any arbitrary real-time signalling requirement from any application.

To everyone else: Online communication is an important part of our lives. Unlike physical communication, we cannot control who can reach our data when we send it through the "inter-tubes." Fortunately, there are techniques to prevent people from eavesdropping your online conversations. In this workshop, I will talk about easy-to-use security tools that you can use to keep your conversations private: how to encrypt emails and instant messaging. It will be a not-so-technical workshop aimed to include anybody who knows how to use email.

                                                                                                                                            In recent years, the applicable enterprise area of PostgreSQL has been significantly enlarged by performance and functionality enhancement. As a result, there is a emerging demand to migrate database systems to PostgreSQL from Oracle. In this presentation, we will report on the following two tools which greatly help our migration projects: * SQL Imcompatibility detection tool (db_syntax_diff) * Oracle emulating function libraries "orafce" and our enhancement We are working at the open source software center (OSS center) at NTT which is the largest telecommunications company group in Japan. For the purpose of software cost reduction, we have been carried out a lot of database migration projects so far. Most of our customers are preferring so called "DB migration project", in which only the middle-ware DBMS will be replaced and AP itself will be reused. This is because such projects are usually considered more effective in terms of development time and cost than the "rebuild" projects, in which the system will be build again from scratch. Nevertheless, the differences between old and new DBMSs often block the migration projects technically, and considerable number of projects may be giving up eventually. We found the major factors that make the migration difficult is following two: * Cost of the estimation work * Technical difficulty of the estimation work itself As a solution of these problems, we have developed a non-compatible SQL auto-detection tool named db_syntax_diff. This tool can extract PostgreSQL incompatible SQLs in AP for Oracle and append each of them a difficulty index for migration. We've performed more than 30 database migration projects using this tool. As another effort to solve migration problems, we are also working on function enhancement of orafce (Oracle emulation libraries). Based on the knowledge of frequently seen incompatibilities in the above estimations, we have added a large number of new entries to the orafce.

The data processing pipeline at Upwork consists of PG production DB, GPDB data warehouse, and multiple Vitesse DB data marts. I will detail the distinctive role of each system, and provide details on the setup of the pipeline, specifically how data flow from production to DW to data mart. If time permits, I will also give some examples of how the platform works for the data scientists at Upwork.

Simply switching your data warehouse or data mart from SQL Server or Oracle could save your organisation hundreds of thousands of dollars. In this session we will explore features that make PostgreSQL a great DW solution, with a mix of presentation and demonstration. By the time the session ends, you will understand the technical and business benefits of PostgreSQL, as well as some cool integration tips for your first project.

This ordering is the core of the dating app Tantan, which I will use to illustrate the talk. At Tantan we have more than one million users every day that look through 200 million potential matches each day, and we need to optimize what we show to maximize the potential chance for a match. We do that by ordering the potential matches based on a number of criteria, such as distance from you, recent activity and popularity.

To ease the pain, the second part of this workshop will *require* participants to have VirtualBox installed on their laptops. The workshop will start from the very basics (with a little mathematics), and quickly progress to getting hands-on with open source software including the training of a deep network on simple problems. This will be followed by a more in-depth portion : Using a pre-built VM, participants will experiment with a much larger pre-trained model, and get an understanding of application to both e-commerce and generative art.

This is an opportunity for them to leverage the power of IntelliJ IDEA SDK to build plugins for IntelliJ Idea and Android Studio in Java. This will be a hands on training session in which developers will : -> setup the dev environment for plugin development -> get an overview of plugin architecture, manifests etc. -> Write a couple of plugins and will be able to deploy them on their IDEs.

It is supposed to be a gamification of the existing product. So we will learn how to attach an Espresso Lite board to an existing thing and turn it into an input or an output. We will show you how to network these things with each other, with a computer application (most likely a computer game), and your phone. Bring some random not too valuable things (from your used coke can to some dollar store items) which you are not too sad about if they might get altered in a way that they might be not useful for unknown people anymore. We will provide aluminum foil, card stock, scissors, and glue for your alterations. Besides this bring a laptop, your team spirit, and lots of creativity.

Learning TDD practice in Python can be challenging because there are several "competing" packages without an obvious "best way" to do it. Simplicity and readability are core concepts of Python, and in this talk I will try to show how it can be applied to testing by doing a side-by-side comparison of unittest/selenium vs pytest/splinter in a simple web application development context.

Even though this talk is in the Python track, this talk will interest the people who are interested in the tracks DevOps and Open Source and Free Software. My talk will divided into 2-3 minutes chunks, where I would be talking about architecture, functionality of various projects (pagure, fmn, bodhi etc) within the Fedora Infrastructure. My primary focus would to enlighten the participants on how this various applications interact within themselves so that the contributors can visualize the infrastructure as a whole. I also intent to speak on Federated Message Bus (fedmsg) within the infra through which the message passing takes place. At the end of the talk I plan to tell them on how to pick their first bug and the communication channels through which they can contact the Fedora upstream.

It is very simple and easy to configure. Each job only takes a json file, and .txt file as configuration. It can boot up cloud image on any laptop/server or can use Vagrant images to test any project. One of the latest feature is about testing on AWS EC2 instances. For any given AMI & authentication details, it can spin up the instance, and execute the tests on it. Currently Fedora Project is using tunir to automatically test its own cloud, atomic, and Vagrant images. We write the test cases using Python 3 unittest module. The documentation of the project can be found at https://tunir.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

There's the stdlib's argparse and various other packages like docopt, clint, click, etc. This talk will talk about when to use each of these packages and when to not. I'll also talk about some of the DOs and DON'Ts of creating a good CLI application.

It also provides support for creating projects/versions in Zanata and retrieving information about projects.

But sometimes science lectures aren't just boring, they are ineffective too and result in loss of interest among students. Learning science can be fun if we could visualize the concepts and relate them with the real world. Python programming language has the potential to change a dull teaching learning process in to more stimulating active learning. Equations in physics and maths always look dull and boring. With the power of python one can see the beauty behind those equations and can find real world connections. With the effective use of python programs a teacher can actively engage the students and help them visualize the concepts and have better understanding. In this presentation I will talk about my teaching experiments with Python in Physics with live demo of some scientific python programs.

                                                                                                                                                                                                          ircb1 is a IRC Bouncer as a service, made for humans. It's currently functional as a basic IRC bouncer, however, unlike mainstream IRC bouncers, it supports multiple client connections for the same IRC network connection for a user. It aims to provide a scalable bouncer service along with easy setup, deployment and management. It also envisions to provide a low barrier entry point for users, where users can join and start using the service in an automated fashion, without going through manual processes. Although, ircb is a standalone product, it is also one of the core components of waartaa2. waartaa is our attempt to create an open source SAAS communication and collaboration tool, around IRC. We also participated in GSoC under the Fedora umbrella. However, we hit various roadblocks with the initial code base given to it's monolithic structure. So, we started breaking down the app into micro services. Thus, ircb, the scalable IRC bouncer to empower waartaa, was born. IRC networks limit the number of connections for an IP, and this limit has to be manually negotiated, and the process takes time. We came to know of this during maintaining a demo instance of waartaa on a single node, when Freenode will stop rejecting IRC connections from our IP. That's why we are looking forward to have a multi node model for ircb, where we can intelligently distribute the IRC network connections, as needed. We are also brainstorming to figure out an intelligent way to load balance connections from IRC clients to the bouncer service in a stateless fashion. You can find some insight about it in our initial design docs3. We are also trying to develop a reactive store layer to empower realtime applications, in our case, waartaa.

Terraform can manage existing and popular service providers as well as custom in-house solutions. We can use it to build the infrastructure in many cloud providers such as AWS, Azure, Rackspace, DigitalOcean, GoogleCloud, Docker, OpenStack etc. Moreover it has an provisioners like chef, which we can use to automate for configuration Management. It can be seen as similar to cloud-formation from AWS. Within this short workshop with this tool I am creating a basic two-tier infrastructure stack in a single command. What I will do it in one stroke of command is Create a complete infrastructure in AWS VPC running an app server, What are the things happening in this one command: - Creating a VPC. - Creating a subnets one public and private. - Creating respective security groups and rules. - Creating a load balancer. - Creating a app server running an web server called nginx. - Attaching a server to ELB and giving us a public DNS by which we can access the app. - And it gives a simple sketch diagram of our infrastructure as well. Thus we have full fledged app running on Cloud in single Command. Links : https://www.terraform.io | https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform

This puts lot of pressure on developers and then scalability, higher throughput, UI etc becomes their focus points. At the same time DBA & Ops team too are accountable for robustness and performance. Both the teams approach same applications with different perspective and it creates some challenges. For example while DBA team is concerned about consistency of data, developers are more often concerned about ease of development. How do we address these challenges and work together. As a DB Architect for a solutions company I have been interacting with various customer’s development teams and getting to know their views on how they use databases. In the process, I have shared some inputs with them which they have found quite useful and in turn I have picked up a few tips from them. During my presentation I would like to share about 7 such important lessons that should be pinned to every developer’s and data architect’s desk while developing a web-scale app. These tips are about improvement in the application design and architecture but they come from a Database Architect’s perspective. To illustrate these tips I would be using popular features of an open source database – PostgreSQL.

It also provides a convenient user interface which takes away a lot of common tasks from the developer. In this process coala makes research available for production use. coala also facilitates people entering the world of open source by providing them valuable feedback on coding standards and formatting. This talk features a short introduction into the thoughts behind coala, its ability to speed up research as well as increase productivity and a demonstration of our command line and other interfaces.

The challange to do so increases as the demand for high performance rises as well as the number of managed hypervisors/vms and the potential number point of failures. This session will focus in the different approaches taken in oVirt to manage shared storage in the virtualization world, the pros of each approach and its drawbacks

In the session Yaniv will show how various management flows can be done easily with oVirt such as network configurations, new servers deployment, enhanced storage manipulations, enhanced live flows, QoS and many more. Yaniv will discuss what currently possible to do with oVirt, and what the oVirt road-map for future versions... and in addition how you, audience, can contribute to oVirt!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Jenkins easily allows you to build and test your projects continuously. But creating similar Jenkins jobs could be mundane sometimes, how about automating that part with Jenkins Job Builder by writing JJB configuration files for creating a number of Jenkins Jobs at once. One can keep job descriptions in human readable text format in a version control system to make changes and auditing easier. Creating a bunch of similarly configured jobs is also easy with templating. In this workshop, I 'll start with a brief introduction to Jenkins (if required) and Jenkins Job Builder. We shall do a hands-on session with writing JJB configuration files and see how the jobs are created in jenkins, how can we create multiple jobs and manage them.

Constellations and clothing patterns are mathematically difficult to construct. This talk begins with the origins of the project and explains the challenges posed by the data, the data structures, and the user workflow. The revolutionary nature of this open source fashion design tool is revealed in social, political, ecological and technical terms.

Simply by using Vineger, Hydrogen Peroxide and Salt you are able to make fairly complex PCB boards. The process is simple and fast and gives you the flexibility to make 1 single board or multiple different prototype boards for testing. This workshop will introduce participants to the process of making PCB boards using a laser printer, transfer media paper and a heat press machine. Participants will get to make and assemble a working PCB board.

We have added many new sensors plug-ins to measure a variety of parameters like temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed, acceleration, tilt angle, magnetic field etc. With this development we at FOSSASIA are aiming to provide low-cost, effective and open source laboratory equipment to students all over the world. I will also be talking about the low-cost weather data-acquisition system developed and interfacing Gas sensors with ExpEYES. A Poster covering details of GSoC work will also be displayed at the venue. In the end I will add little about my experience of GSoC journey with my mentors Mario Behling, Hong Phuc Dang and Andre Rebentisch, with some critical piece of knowledge or a new lesson to learn everyday…..this may encourage and help future GsoC students.

With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .

Constellations and clothing patterns are mathematically difficult to construct. This talk begins with the origins of the project and explains the challenges posed by the data, the data structures, and the user workflow. The revolutionary nature of this open source fashion design tool is revealed in social, political, ecological and technical terms.

Simply by using Vineger, Hydrogen Peroxide and Salt you are able to make fairly complex PCB boards. The process is simple and fast and gives you the flexibility to make 1 single board or multiple different prototype boards for testing. This workshop will introduce participants to the process of making PCB boards using a laser printer, transfer media paper and a heat press machine. Participants will get to make and assemble a working PCB board.

We have added many new sensors plug-ins to measure a variety of parameters like temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed, acceleration, tilt angle, magnetic field etc. With this development we at FOSSASIA are aiming to provide low-cost, effective and open source laboratory equipment to students all over the world. I will also be talking about the low-cost weather data-acquisition system developed and interfacing Gas sensors with ExpEYES. A Poster covering details of GSoC work will also be displayed at the venue. In the end I will add little about my experience of GSoC journey with my mentors Mario Behling, Hong Phuc Dang and Andre Rebentisch, with some critical piece of knowledge or a new lesson to learn everyday…..this may encourage and help future GsoC students.

With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .

During this talk I will share some of the lessons I've learned along the way and how Making helped me increase my creative confidence and how others could increase theirs. The talk will gravitate around 3 key points: Breaking free from the "I'm not creative mentality". What would happen if we all increase our creative confidence?

This is supported to a certain degree by a lot of projects which do minimal testing upstream and rely on downstream consumers, vendors, or distros to do an additional set of testing after a release. But, there is no reason that an open project can not also do QA in the open as part of the community. While the term QA will likely evoke a combination of fear, disdain, or any of a plethora of negative emotions from anyone who has worked in a traditional enterprise development environment and probably scare them off. The top down approach, strict bureaucracy, and other issues which are often synonymous with QA teams doesn't have to be the case. There can be real benefits to having a dedicated QA effort on an open source project. It enables transparency in how testing is done, lets anyone contribute and collaborate, and can signal to consumers the stability of a project. Larger projects can especially reap a lot of benefit from having people working on the QA side of a project upstream. This talk will use OpenStack as an case study to explore how a large open source project can do QA in an open manner and the potential benefits it can provide. It'll cover how the OpenStack community does QA, how it's evolved over time, and share lessons of some best practices which have been learned over time.

It introduced the usual code cleanups, refactoring and new features as other releases however it also introduced some new directions - a more active UX team that resulted in many user experience improvements, development of LibreOffice for Android and a cloud office suite LibreOffice Online. In my talk I will highlight the changes done in the LibreOffice 5 series until now.

This applies also to experimental data in chemical / biological research. There is however often a barrier preventing the re-use and re-analysis of obtained raw data due to expensive proprietary instrument software. In the field of Imaging Mass Spectrometry, we started an open source project to solve this problem. The project is now hosted on https://www.bioconductor.org, a large repository for open source life science software in the programming language R.

With higher smartphone penetration, the number of mobile apps , also increases at an alarming rate. This heats up the pressure on individual mobile developers to find ways to stand out from the crowd and generate revenues. While a great app is a good start, developers who wants to build a serious business also need a solid monetization strategy.

I've been using Asciidoc for a few consulting projects and have found that its great for creating uniform documents that are free from common problems that come with a WYSIWG word processor. In this talk, I'll share my Asciidoc journey.

No longer are our customers, people, and offices all locally located. In fact, they might not even be on the same continent much less the same side of the world. To promote a healthy environment and ensure clients and products are getting the results needed, sustainable management of distributed teams is a requirement. This presentation will cover the understanding for forming, storming, norming, and performing of remote teams.

Constellations and clothing patterns are mathematically difficult to construct. This talk begins with the origins of the project and explains the challenges posed by the data, the data structures, and the user workflow. The revolutionary nature of this open source fashion design tool is revealed in social, political, ecological and technical terms.

Simply by using Vineger, Hydrogen Peroxide and Salt you are able to make fairly complex PCB boards. The process is simple and fast and gives you the flexibility to make 1 single board or multiple different prototype boards for testing. This workshop will introduce participants to the process of making PCB boards using a laser printer, transfer media paper and a heat press machine. Participants will get to make and assemble a working PCB board.

We have added many new sensors plug-ins to measure a variety of parameters like temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed, acceleration, tilt angle, magnetic field etc. With this development we at FOSSASIA are aiming to provide low-cost, effective and open source laboratory equipment to students all over the world. I will also be talking about the low-cost weather data-acquisition system developed and interfacing Gas sensors with ExpEYES. A Poster covering details of GSoC work will also be displayed at the venue. In the end I will add little about my experience of GSoC journey with my mentors Mario Behling, Hong Phuc Dang and Andre Rebentisch, with some critical piece of knowledge or a new lesson to learn everyday…..this may encourage and help future GsoC students.

With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .

With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .

During this workshop, participants will be exposed to tools and techniques that will help them understand that enhancing their creative confidence is like a muscle, you need to exercise it and practice daily. During the workshop the participants will be able to start their maker journey by personalizing a notebook/treasure box. Workshop is focus for following ages: 4- ­6 with parents, 7-13, 15 onwards

Using an Espresso Lite (that's no coffee - this is actually a little computer with wifi) we will turn some household goods and some wire into your own multiplayer game controller. You will learn a lot about electronics, networking, and how much fun it is to build an open source community when we explore some of the open source projects, who enabled me to build the software for these controllers. And of course, we will play at least one fun open source multiplayer game with our own controllers in the end of the class. I will also point you to many other open source game projects you can adapt to use your new customized game controller with the knowledge of this class. Bring some basic computer literacy (no programming required but it helps to dig deeper), some curiosity, a laptop, team spirit, and the willingness to do some crafting (yes there will be scissors and glue).

PSL@FOSSASIA aims to deliver low-cost lab equipments to millions of students and young scientists and enable them to learn science by experimenting and exploring. The main components of PSL are ExpEYES: Experiments for Young Engineers and Scientists [1] and MicroHope: Micro-controllers for Hobby Projects and Education [2] , projects by Dr. Ajith Kumar B P of IUAC, New Delhi [3]. ExpEYES is an Open Hardware and Free Software framework for developing science experiments, classroom demonstrations and projects without getting in to the details of electronics or computer programming. It converts your PC into a portable science laboratory. In this workshop participants will be able to do hands-on science experiments covering various concepts like electricity, electromagnetic induction, sound, interference, oscillations etc... This workshop is for kids of any age [10 to 100 years :) ] who are interested in science hacks :) [1] ExpEYES: http://www.expeyes.in [2] MicroHope: http://www.microhope.org [3] IUAC: http://iuac.res.in/ [4] PSL: http://fossasia.github.io/pslab.fossasia.org/

But there’s a new generation of modern, well-designed and widely used open source apps. There’s also a few more designers working in open soure now and an upcoming Open Source Design movement. But we still need to improve, and we need to collaborate! I worked as designer with lots of open source software projects and will present the methods I use every day at ownCloud to drive forward open source design. Some topics I will cover: - how to establish a design culture in your project - how to work together with developers - making designers develop and developers design - getting university students involved - the importance of cross-project collaboration - the Open Source Design movement in general

You also love art. You want to merge the two wonderful worlds, but it can be hard. How can we create art with code and make writing code an art? In comes generative art! Generative art is art created by an independent, non-human system, for example, art generated by algorithms. Remember screensavers from the 90s? Yeah, something along those lines. You'll learn how to create art in the browser with Processing.js. I'll demo the basics of animation and we'll explore how algorithmic and mathematical concepts such as recursion, tiling, and geometry can result in unexpectedly beautiful visuals.

The talk will focus on what the project is all about, the community to automate mobile gaming using image processing, the possible academic research areas and the future of gaming with game automation. It's also an exciting effort to build algorithms to focus on solving larger and more dynamic mobile games. We are currently putting all the findings and the tutorials into a book and FOSSASIA would be a great platform to showcase and reach out to other researchers, students and enthusiasts about the ongoing work.

Then an open discussion will follow: - How to choose what project you want to work on? - Where to find a project? - What you have to know to make your first contribution? This discussion is open for everyone: designers, researchers, developers.

It depends on people participating by signing other people's keys. However, when following best practises, the act of signing a key involves secure transfer of the OpenPGP key which contemporary casual key signing protocols for small groups address by exchanging the fingerprint of the key to be signed. The key will then be downloaded over an untrusted channel and the key obtained needs to be manually verified. This presentation shows a novel approach to signing keys which makes it easy to sign a person's key. It enables very small groups of people to casually hold very small key signing parties. The key idea is to automatically authenticate the key material before the transfer via a secure audible or visual channel. A Free Software implementation of the protocol will be shown and people are invited to sign their keys :-)

Vulnerabilities are found and fixed all the time, and just because a vulnerability gets a name and a fancy logo doesn’t mean it is of real risk to users. This talk is about these branded security flaws and talk about the ones which matter.

This peer-to-peer network is also accessible from other applications using the project's OpenDHT library. Signaling protocols, like SIP, XMPP and IAX, typically rely on central servers to help users locate each other and initiate sessions. Ring is an evolved version of the SFLphone SIP client adding support for true peer-to-peer calling without any central server. The peer-to-peer network transport is implemented using the OpenDHT library, making it a universal solution that can be used for any arbitrary real-time signalling requirement from any application.

And in my workshop, I will showcase the implementation and use of AIDE. AIDE (Advanced Intrusion Detection Enviornment) is a tool to check the file integrity. It is an opensource substitute for commercial tool TRIPWIRE. It allows to take snapshots of all the major configuration files, binaries as well as libraries stats. And helps to find which binaries have been changed in case of compromisation of the system.

We'll be using WebAudio School, which is a NodeSchool style interactive workshop, led by a mentor. We will go through interactive lessons in a browser, and learn the WebAudio API (Javascript) which allows real-time synthesis and analysis of sound in a browser. We will primarily focus on using the Web Audio API for music, but the concepts here could be applied to game sound and other creative uses. Reminder to participants : Bring headphones.

The workshop will help participants install and setup the Loklak server on their systems. Once setup is complete, there will be a hands-on tutorial on how to consume the Loklak API to build client apps on various devices and languages. This will cover an overview and short tutorial of using the API wrappers and a thorough walk-through of the API methods. There will be demos of apps made for web, mobile and IOT. By the end of the workshop, participants will be ready with their own app consuming the Loklak API on a device and language of their choice. We can then have a short presentation session by the participants showcasing the apps they built during the workshop.

By providing alternative input mechanisms to traditional IDEs, we can improve accessibility for visually impaired programmers, and free developers from the paradigm of menu- and button- based navigation. In this presentation, we will demonstrate an open source tool that can navigate code, recognize simple commands, and help you write Java, just by listening to your voice. Written in Java and built on open source libraries, you too can integrate speech recognition in an IDE or desktop application of your choice, by using a few simple recipes.

It also seeks to build on experiences targeting young women who are vastly underrepresented in this field. Finally it builds on the consideration that for millions of young people, the smartphone in their pocket is a very powerful computer, it will be their only computer, and they use it for nearly every aspect of their lives: communicating, learning, taking pictures, and playing games.

This peer-to-peer network is also accessible from other applications using the project's OpenDHT library. Signaling protocols, like SIP, XMPP and IAX, typically rely on central servers to help users locate each other and initiate sessions. Ring is an evolved version of the SFLphone SIP client adding support for true peer-to-peer calling without any central server. The peer-to-peer network transport is implemented using the OpenDHT library, making it a universal solution that can be used for any arbitrary real-time signalling requirement from any application.

It is a text-editing device that lets the user do text editing by means of touch and hearing, without eyesight. It is an ongoing project and the goal of the project is to come up with an assistive device that enables the visually challenged to edit text effectively, and with open-source code + design files such that anyone interested can build one themselves.

To everyone else: Online communication is an important part of our lives. Unlike physical communication, we cannot control who can reach our data when we send it through the "inter-tubes." Fortunately, there are techniques to prevent people from eavesdropping your online conversations. In this workshop, I will talk about easy-to-use security tools that you can use to keep your conversations private: how to encrypt emails and instant messaging. It will be a not-so-technical workshop aimed to include anybody who knows how to use email.

The experiential booth will have tools and materials for participants to stop by and create a personalized coaster or greeting. Each participant can stay up to 20 min, as to let other people have a chance at making.

This versatile and tightly integrated component collects performance and session data from various subsystems within the server during runtime with minimal impact on overall server performance. This feature was introduced in MySQL 5.5 and MySQL 5.7 GA has been released with great enhancements in it for performance monitoring and tuning.This talk aims to give an overview of Performance Schema and how/what statistical information user is provided with using Performance Schema. With the help pf few use cases, it also explains how that information can be used for monitoring and trouble shooting to track an issue back to the relevant file and line of code in source file. This talk also aims to give a glimpse of new interesting features/monitoring information added in MySQL 5.7 GA. This talk is targeted to many database users which includes DBA, Database Application developers, Database developers, Students etc.

Replication ensures that data written on one MySQL server is made available on other MySQL servers at run time in a fast, consistent and fault tolerant manner with minimal impact to the overall performance of the server. Traditionally, MySQL Replication supports a single master and many slaves, and it is either asynchronous or semi-synchronous. A new replication plugin for MySQL has been around for some time and this is named MySQL Group Replication. This plugin provides multi-master update everywhere capabilities, making it possible to update data, concurrently, on any server in a group. It provides additional synchronization between servers that makes them coordinate regarding transactions that are committed in the group. This talk explains how MySQL Group Replication facilitates and improves High Availability and simplifies replication and application management - it will also include a demo. Takeaways: - What's MySQL Group Replication and its evolution. - Understanding the architecture of MySQL Group Replication. - Demo on how to use MySQL Group replication for improved High Availability.

For a long time MySQL was using file based system for metadata storage. MySQL is designing and implementing a new and improved data dictionary for MySQL. Main goals of Data dictionary is : - Store dictionary information in transactional storage. - Consolidate distributed dictionary information for the server into a unified dictionary - Store all dictionary information in a uniform way, with uniform APIs for all dictionary objects - Get rid of filesystem-property induced problems

Many organizations adopted graph databases - IoT, health care, financial services, telecommunications and governments. What are the reason for this trend? What are the use cases and what are the Open Source databases you should look into for your scenario? We'll dive into a few of them and equip the attendees with everything they need to start using a graph database. This workshop is based on our research and implementation of a graph database at Sanguine, a medical startup from LA.

But on the very familiar JavaScript framework. NativeScript is fully open sourced, so developers now have an option to build truly native mobile applications without the need to code in many different languages. We will get some hands on during this workshop to play with NativeScript and explore some of its amazing capabilities.

This session covers controlling lights, bells, and motors using open source software. Wireless remotes can also control devices. Sensors can provide information about motion, sunset, temperature. Capturing caller id and auto-dialing is also covered. X10 is an ideal system for home automation, and there are methods to improve reliability. Computers can easily send X10 signals across your electrical network. The session concludes with a live demo showing a home with 38 computer-controlled devices and sensors.

If you have any question regarding systemd, about using it, about hacking on it, about its future and our plans, then come this session. If you'd like to know more about the any facet of systemd, and never dared to ask, this is the place to come! The idea of this session is that we discuss whatever interests you, the audience! Hence, please come up with good topics!

The systemd journal is systemd's logging infrastructure and hence a core component of pretty much all modern Linux systems. Specifically, we'll play around with "journalctl" and related tools and what they can do for you. We'll particularly focus in filtering log output and structured logging, and everything else that makes the journal more powerful than "cat /var/log/syslog". Please bring your own laptop to this workshop. Please install a major distribution (Fedora, Ubuntu, …), that has adopted systemd (which is pretty much any, as long as it is somewhat recent). Some of the features we'll show rely on very new features of the systemd journal, hence the newer version you pick the better. But even if you don't want to bring your own laptop, it should still be useful to follow this workshop without any.

It's due on 21st of March. With that release, many visible improvements will be delivered to users around the world. While many people already excitedly use GNOME 3 with the new user experience, some features of the new and elegant desktop like LibreOffice integration or editing photos with non-destructive GEGL operations are not yet wildly known. We also did many things on the plumbing layer such as allowing GNOME to run Wayland. The talk will introduce to some of the design philosophies inherent in GNOME 3 as well as the main changes brought to users and developers. Also, since GNOME 3.20 is another step of a long lasting incrementally improved user experience, the future of GNOME's development will be speculated on.

The motivation behind "reproducible" builds is to allow verification that no flaws have been introduced during this compilation process by promising identical binary packages are always generated from a given source. This prevents against the installation of backdoor-introducing malware on developers' machines - an attacker would need to simultaneously infect all developers attempting to reproduce the build. Furthermore, a reproducible build has a wide variety technical advantages, including implicitly removing non-deterministic or unsafe behaviour (such as downloading third-party code from the internet), detecting corrupted build environments, reducing time-to-detection of a build host compromise, as well as numerous other debugging and testing advantages. In this sense, reproducible builds are finally fulfilling the original promise of free software - that you have actual control over what is being run on your computers.

There is a tremendous potential of using these platforms, these platforms already provide high security levels ensuring that the over head of security can be safely taken a step later and the developers can lay their core focus only on the main prototype. In this workshop we can explore the possibilities of using these message platforms in various ways, to control IOT at home and business as well as to create artificial intelligence to build better and more engaging customer experiences

Enhanced Administrative Resource) which is a dedicated open source software for tracking complaints registered with the government's. Started in 2014 December, this software is now being pilot tested in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana and the loklak API serves as the main tool for the governments to interact with citizens, A rant on twitter can now be taken seriously by the governments to improve the way they function.

These methods and techniques play an important role in the design and understanding of robots, vehicles, spacecraft, manufacturing machines, human motion, etc. In particular, the attendees will develop code to simulate the motion of a human balancing while standing using specific Joints. We have found that a broad audience enjoys the topic. Attendees should be familiar with the basics of the SciPy stack, in particular NumPy, SciPy, SymPy, and IPython and have some familiarity with classical mechanics specially common joints like pin joint and sliding joints.

I will show the basics of constructing and manipulating mathematical expressions in SymPy, the most common issues and differences from other computer algebra systems, and how to deal with them. In the last part of this tutorial, I will show how to solve practical problems with SymPy. This will include showing how to interface SymPy with popular numeric libraries like NumPy.

No, four parts, for one indomitable component still held out against the recent trend of containerization: Datastores. While setting up stateless web- and application servers is considered best practise today, creating ethemeral datastores is still tricky. The talk will show that ethemeral datastores aren't implicit contradictions and discuss how to implement this idea. The main problem is to deal with scale-out and scale-back situations. There are several ways to tackle that challenge, including, but not limited to to active-passive-clusters, read slaves, active-active-solutions ora couple of NoSQL solutions. Most of them are pretty complex to set up and operate, though. Crate is an open source database that speaks SQL to the frontend, but scales horizontally by just adding more nodes. A demo shows how to set up a distributed application with a database cluster using Docker in less than 15 lines of orchestration code and compares it to other database clusters. Software architects, web developers, and system engineers who have experienced the pains of scaling a database up to a big data level will learn in this session how to resolve the bottleneck of poorly performing data backends. It includes a working demo participants may download and extend.

This talk covers what Docker is, why you might want to use it, how it works, as well as explaining some key terminology. The key idea is to show how Docker helps for the DevOps and how one can use it for the deployment & productions. The talk finishes up with a few demos demonstrating the functionality of Docker. This talk is also useful to quick start with Docker system.

We are using digital tools to preserve the heritage sites being actively deleted by ISIS. * A Cultural Development project, hosting live workshops and building a network of artists, technologists, archaeologists, architects, and others to research, construct models, and create artistic works. * A Curatorial project, creating exhibitions and experiences in museums and institutions globally, celebrating the cultural heritage of Syria and the world through the lens of architecture embodying culture and power. Together with our international affiliates, #NEWPALMYRA sources archaeological and historical data, shares it with the community, and outputs art exhibitions, salons, and creative works using this data to carry the rich history of Palmyra forward to new generations.

Constellations and clothing patterns are mathematically difficult to construct. This talk begins with the origins of the project and explains the challenges posed by the data, the data structures, and the user workflow. The revolutionary nature of this open source fashion design tool is revealed in social, political, ecological and technical terms.

Simply by using Vineger, Hydrogen Peroxide and Salt you are able to make fairly complex PCB boards. The process is simple and fast and gives you the flexibility to make 1 single board or multiple different prototype boards for testing. This workshop will introduce participants to the process of making PCB boards using a laser printer, transfer media paper and a heat press machine. Participants will get to make and assemble a working PCB board.

We have added many new sensors plug-ins to measure a variety of parameters like temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed, acceleration, tilt angle, magnetic field etc. With this development we at FOSSASIA are aiming to provide low-cost, effective and open source laboratory equipment to students all over the world. I will also be talking about the low-cost weather data-acquisition system developed and interfacing Gas sensors with ExpEYES. A Poster covering details of GSoC work will also be displayed at the venue. In the end I will add little about my experience of GSoC journey with my mentors Mario Behling, Hong Phuc Dang and Andre Rebentisch, with some critical piece of knowledge or a new lesson to learn everyday…..this may encourage and help future GsoC students.

With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .

With regard to the notion of belonging and possession of material objects of other cultures, the artists intention is to make cultural objects publicly accessible and to promote a contemporary and critical approach on how the “Global North“ deals with heritage and the representation of “the Other”. “We should tell stories of entanglement and Nefertiti is a great case to start with to tell stories from very different angles and to see how they intertwine.“ At this link you will find a torrent to access the dataset under a public domain: http://nefertitihack.alloversky.com Here is the video showing the scanning process: https://vimeo.com/148156899 “The Other Nefertiti” is a conceptual art piece questioning singularity and originality as well as ownership of material objects of other cultures. Nora Al-Badri and Jan Nikolai Nelles went to the Neues Museum and scanned the iconic bust, but of course nobody knows if even this is the original bust. Through time and restoration there might not much genuine be left of the artifact itself. We give meaning to objects as well as we give meaning to data. Why worshipping the original, while we have all that beautiful remixes as of today? Maybe it was a server hack, a copy scan, an inside job, the cleaner, a hoax, but who cares, first of all it is an art piece. Of course a scan of the same thing looks the same, doesn't it? And tomorrow everybody with cameras or smartphones or Xbox will have the means and technique, where one can reclaim the interpretational sovereignty through scanning and sharing. What the artists strived to achieve is a vivid discussion about the notion of possession and belonging of history in our museums and our minds. A discussion on the originality and truth of data as well as material objects is necessary, because in the end one concludes, that the institutional practice of todays museums and collections all around the Western world are corrupted. Museums are telling fictional stories, their stories, just because they control the artifacts and the way of representation. The fetishization of sacred staged artifacts and the Disneyfication is producing capital value for illicit trading and looting artifacts. One can't find a reflection about violent entanglement of the museums and their inherent colonial patina themselves. But isn't representing “The Other” always violent? Art is about building new narratives, deconstructing power relations, not scanning techniques... .
