<p>In this session, Keya looks at how animations can be applied to add style and substance to any webpage and how we can identify some common design patterns to add purposeful animations to our designs.</p>
<p>There are a plethora of development tools available today, from declarative CSS Animations and Transitions to fully featured JavaScript animation libraries like GreenSock to develop slick animations, but there's an upcoming new option: the Web Animation API! </p>
<p>Join in the fun as Keya demonstrates how simple animated micro interactions can be developed with ease using this new API combined with popular frameworks like React.</p>

<p>In GSoC 2017, we in a team worked together and built the Open Event Frontend which is totally decoupled from the Open Event Server. Since Open Event is a vast ecosystem, we need to ensure that each and every contributor can set up the project locally for development and can proceed faster towards contribution. Thus, it sometimes gets difficult for beginners to set up the project. In this session, I will show how to set up Open Event Frontend and Open Event Server locally and make the frontend use the local server rather than online hosted version (heroku) so that new contributors can focus on contribution rather than spending their much time in setting up the project.</p>

<p>With the development of the API server for the Open Event project we needed to decide which framework to choose for the new Open Event front-end. With the plethora of javascript frameworks available it got really difficult to decide which one is actually the right choice. Every month a new framework arrives and the existing ones keep actively updating themselves often. We decided to go with Ember.js. This talk will cover the emberJS framework and highlight its advantages over others and demonstrate its usefulness with some code snippets and UI screenshots as well as show the hands on advantage by comparing it with the way the previous frontend was structured and the extremely efficient usage of resources using json api. </p>

<p>Learn more about how the open event project uses JSON API, a specification for building APIs. JSON API follows the ‘Convention over Configuration’ philosophy. Aside from a brief introduction to the revamped architecture of the open event project, the talk will also discuss best practices followed for building APIs and URI conventions followed throughout the project. The talk will also shed some light on the challenges faced while implementing JSON API with Flask.</p>

<p>The Internet today is plagued by many problems. From viruses and spam, to identity theft and piracy.We can solve those problems.With a virtual operating system that runs the cloud, using blockchains to secure identities and data, a virtual network layer to protect against unauthorized network access, and a virtual machine to sandbox untrusted code.This talk will describe Elastos, an Operating System for the smart web.It will explore the approach that Elastos takes to achieve these goals, and gives a vision of a possible future internet.</p>

StopStalk not only helps in analysing your own competitive programming progress but also helps to code and learn collectively with your friends. Along with the features that are provided on StopStalk I want to discuss the implementation details that are going on in the background to serve the beautified data on the website. The code is completely open source on Github <a href="https://github.com/stopstalk/stopstalk-deployment">https://github.com/stopstalk/stopstalk-deployment</a>. </p>

<p>Unikernel is a novel software technology that links an application with OS in the form of a library and packages them into a specialized image that facilitates direct deployment on a hypervisor. Comparing to the traditional VM or the recent containers Unikernels are smaller more secure and efficient making them ideal for cloud environments. There are already lots of open source projects like OSv Rumprun and so on. But why these existing unikernels have yet to gain large popularity broadly? We think Unikernels are facing three major challenges: 1. Compatibility with existing applications 2. Lack of production support (e.g. monitoring debugging logging) 3. Lack of compelling use case 4. Lack of standard to Unikernels. In my presentation I will review our investigations and exploration of if-how we can convert Linux as Unikernel to eliminate these significant shortcomings where I name this as UniLinux and some potential but valuable use cases to Unikernels like IoT Serverless and IO-intensive applications.</p>

<p>An internet kiosk is a special use case. A single computer is shared by an indefinite number of users. Lots of security concerns arise. In Asia and elsewhere multiple non-latin languages have to be supported.

<p>Developing massively parallel systems is restricted by the complex tasks which need to be managed by the programmer. GPU computing provides the opportunity to parallelize data parallel algorithms while CPU can run the sequential code. With increasing algorithmic development, some new algorithms require iterations of parallel computation on the GPUs (computation scale larger than GPU memory) while some require multiple different data parallel algorithms to run simultaneously, which are notorious to be managed by the programmer.</p>
<p>HPX is an open-source, general purpose C++ library for developing parallel and distributed applications with a broad community usage. This talk aims to discuss the development of HPX Compute language (HPXCL) API for the integration of GPU computation with asynchronous many task execution library HPX. Asynchronous functions are provided for kernel launch, kernel execution and data transfer with the capability to hide the communication latency through computation. To give an example, computation on multiple CPU nodes, GPU nodes can all occur in parallel and can be synchronized when the results are required by the user. This system unleashes the potential to take computation to the exa-scale level.</p>
<p>This development is currently spearheaded by the Stellar Group Community which is a consortium of global researchers. The presenter has been a contributor to this community since his Google Summer of Code participation in 2017.</p>

<p>While the Intel x86-64 architecture is undisputedly market leader in the server space, several vendors have started introducing ARM64 boards. This presentation examines the suitability of ARM64 server boards for network servers. In particular, we look at the workload of a moderate-size ccTLD DNS zone (.dk) and how it would perform on ARM64 running FreeBSD.</p>
<p>We consider the viability of the ARM64 platform from performance and performance/power perspectives. While ARM64 is definitely slower than Intel on many workloads, it performs at least as well or better than Intel on workloads that are interesting to the internet community. Notably DNS is a very appropriate workload for ARM64.</p>

<p>GNU/Linux has a handy lscpu command which can print CPU information of current system while BSDs lack so I decide to develop one used in BSDs. The whole task takes about 2 weeks and is divided into following parts:</p>
<p>(1) Study BSD program structure and sysctl APIs</p>
<p>(2) Refer Intel/AMD specs to implement function</p>
<p>(3) Test the program: thanks to kind people who help test on AMD architecture different BSD flavors and create ports.</p>
<p>In this topic I want to share the experience and lessons of developing first application for BSDs</p>
