<p>Speaker will go into how to develop an Linux Industrial I/O subsystem driver for an entirely new sensor, and how userspace HALs can process data with reduce system I/O than a pure "userspace driver". Some of the things that will be covered is iio channel consumers + definition, SW + HW triggers, and ring buffer interface. There will be some in-depth overview of the development API to implement a new driver, or add functionality to an existing iio driver. Also will demo of several sensors using the various functionality of iio, including but not limited to hrtimer sw triggers, and buffered data to userspace HALs.</p>

<p>Coccinelle is a program matching and transformation tool which provides the language SmPL (Semantic Patch Language) for specifying desired matches and transformations in C code. It has been extensively used for finding bugs and performing source code evolutions in the Linux kernel. Coccinelle is designed around a language for expressing matching and transformation rules in terms of fragments of C code. Coccinelle has been used in the development of almost 4000 patches found in the Linux kernel. More than 40 Coccinelle scripts are distributed with the Linux kernel source code.The talk will highlight the capabilities and limitations of Coccinelle along with introducing various basic features of the SmPL.</p>

<p>In the BIOS time, the firmware was usually obscure and the OS developers had to deal with it by experience. Fortunately, nowadays most of the firmware/hardware vendors share the code from the open source project, edk2, in their own UEFI implementations, so it's much easier to understand the how the firmware works, especially the hardware-independent software stack. What's even better is that edk2 contains a sub-project, OVMF, to provide the firmware for QEMU, the virtual machine, we don't need a bare metal to implement features or debug hardware independent issues anymore. No more expensive flash programmer, just copy the file to update the firmware immediately. This talk will present how to develop and debug OVMF with openSUSE and introduce the new UEFI features in openSUSE Leap 42.2.</p>

<p>Abstract:
<br>Today, even low-end computers have resources once only found in supercomputers. Similarly, there is a huge selection of free professional-quality software, in particular (but not only) related to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Yet all too often, students are only taught to use computers for basic word processing or presentations and never learn to tap the computer’s power as a versatile problem-solving tool, even if it could be readily applied at school, in their future careers, and at home.</p>
<p>In my presentation, I will demonstrate a few examples of free software we use routinely in our STEM teaching and research lab in areas such as computer-assisted mathematics, mechanical design, electronic circuit design, and data analysis.</p>
<p>The ultimate key to take control of the computer as a tool is the ability to program it. The Python programming language is rightfully popular in education, academia and industry alike as it is easy to learn, yet extremely expressive and powerful. I will show examples of how we/our students use Python to simulate engineering designs before prototyping, control experiments, and acquire and process data.</p>
<p>I will close by discussing why free software is not just about the money, and how some attractive-looking free-of-charge software or online service schemes can actually hurt students by taking their freedom away.</p>

<p>Speaker(s): Srijan Agarwal (Koll)</p>
<p>Abstract:
<br>The KDE community has always strongly believed in openness, in free and open source software. Today, we’re taking this mission one step further, by bringing openness to the most important intellectual production of humanity: knowledge itself. And we’re not doing it alone, but with the help of institutions and professors all around the globe.</p>
<p>What is WikiToLearn? WikiToLearn is an open platform where students, researchers and key people in the academia can create and refine notes and text books, tailored precisely to their needs, and giving them the power to customise the teaching beyond what traditional textbooks allow. Our philosophy inherits from the very foundation of how science works. We believe that “Knowledge only grows if shared” and we want learners to “Stand on the shoulder of giants!” </p>
<p>Why is it an innovation?WikiToLearn does not offer new knowledge. WikiToLearn offers a new approach to knowledge: it rediscovers and repurposes the attitude, now almost forgotten by mankind, that led our civilisation to take the huge steps that have brought us here today, with our endless heritage of knowledge. Without the collaboration and the communication among the people, without the free availability of knowledge, no big discovery would have been possible. This is what we are trying to restore. We are driven by the love for free knowledge, owned by no one and accessible to everyone. As volunteers, freely collaborating between us, we want to make this vision possible. Open source gains in this context a profound and significant meaning, merging naturally with our philosophy.Any content can be modified: this leads to a continuous development of the existing material, to the collaboration and communication among learners.Everything on WikiToLearn is freely accessible and can be downloaded: in this way knowledge is made available to everyone. </p>
<p> Why should I contribute?It is really important that users contribute to the writing and the improvement of the contents. This is the only way the project can be successful and be able to continue to grow. Your contribution, as small as it could be, is and will always be fundamental.Finding already existent, well organised and freely accessible material can be really useful. However, always bear in mind that you can find it only because someone decided to contribute to creating it.</p>
<p>Moved/Driven by what? Perhaps by our same vision: the desire to see, at last, a change in the approach to knowledge. Perhaps because so you can really feel useful and part of something great, with the power change the world.</p>
<p>Who can contribute? </p>
<p>Who "makes" WikiToLearn? - The project is promoted and coordinated by a community of people, often experts in their own field, who write, review and organise the content. WikiToLearn is a KDE project sponsored by Wikimedia.</p>

<p>Abstract:
<br>Being a college student, I got to know FOSS, started to join promoting it,including workshops,Teacher Training Camp, and served as teaching assistant to push L10N plan,Code.org Translation plan. Also, I founded a community,Edu.FOSS, with my best partner. It gathers a lot of source and power from professors at NCKU and outstanding friends of SLAT Association. Through it can not only promote FOSS, but also help children living in places lack of resources. Furthermore, we are promoting improvement in the CS education policy around the whole Taiwan. Hope we can change the education mode, and bring the progress power for Taiwan's next generation.</p>
