Finding a specific car online can be a time-consuming task, especially when checking multiple dealer websites. A few years ago, I faced this exact problem while searching for a particular vehicle in New Zealand. The local classified platform, Trade Me (similar to eBay), wasnt yielding any results, so I expanded my search to second-hand dealer sitesonly to realise that periodically checking each one was going to be tedious. Thats when I noticed something interesting: many of these websites used the same platform to manage their inventories. Recognising this, I reverse-engineered the platforms structure and built an FME workspace that automated the search process for me. By integrating API calls and setting up periodic checks, I received real-time email alerts when matching cars were listed. In this presentation, Ill walk through how I used FME to save hours of manual searching by creating a custom car-finding automation system. While FME cant buy a car for youyetit can certainly help you find the one youre after!The Future of Technology: 2025-2125 by Saikat Basu.pdf

The OpenACC organization focuses on enhancing parallel computing skills and advancing interoperability in scientific applications through hackathons and training. The upcoming 2025 Open Accelerated Computing Summit (OACS) aims to explore the convergence of AI and HPC in scientific computing and foster knowledge sharing. This year's OACS welcomes talk submissions from a variety of topics, from Using Standard Language Parallelism to Computer Vision Applications. The document also highlights several open hackathons, a call to apply for NVIDIA Academic Grant Program and resources for optimizing scientific applications using OpenACC directives.A Constitutional Quagmire - Ethical Minefields of AI, Cyber, and Privacy.pdf

Explore the ease of managing Firecracker microVM with the firecracker-python. In this session, I will introduce the basics of Firecracker microVM and demonstrate how this custom SDK facilitates microVM operations easily. We will delve into the design and development process behind the SDK, providing a behind-the-scenes look at its creation and features. While traditional Firecracker SDKs were primarily available in Go, this module brings a simplicity of Python to the table.Techniques for Automatic Device Identification and Network Assignment.pdf

In this presentation, we want to explore powerful data integration and preparation for Machine Learning. FME is known for its ability to manipulate and transform geospatial data, connecting diverse data sources into efficient and automated workflows. By integrating FME with Machine Learning techniques, it is possible to transform raw data into valuable insights faster and more accurately, enabling intelligent analysis and data-driven decision making.OWASP Barcelona 2025 Threat Model Library

Managing airport and airspace data is no small task, especially when youre expected to deliver it in AIXM format without spending a fortune on specialized tools. But what if there was a smarter, more affordable way?
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at how Sweco partnered with Swedavia, the Swedish airport operator, to solve this challenge using FME and Esri.
Learn how they built automated workflows to manage periodic updates, merge airspace data, and support data extracts all while meeting strict government reporting requirements to the Civil Aviation Administration of Sweden.
Even better? Swedavia built custom services and applications that use the FME Flow REST API to trigger jobs and retrieve results streamlining tasks like securing the quality of new surveyor data, creating permdelta and baseline representations in the AIS schema, and generating AIXM extracts from their AIS data.
To conclude, FME expert Dean Hintz will walk through a GeoBorders reading workflow and highlight recent enhancements to FMEs AIXM (Aeronautical Information Exchange Model) processing and interpretation capabilities.
Discover how airports like Swedavia are harnessing the power of FME to simplify aviation data management, and how you can too.Oh, the Possibilities - Balancing Innovation and Risk with Generative AI.pdf

Utilities and water companies play a key role in the creation of clean drinking water. The creation and maintenance of clean drinking water is becoming a critical problem due to pollution and pressure on the environment. A lot of data is necessary to create clean drinking water. For fieldworkers, two types of data are key: Asset data in an asset management system (EAM for example) and Geographic data in a GIS (ArcGIS Utility Network ). Keeping this type of data up to date and in sync is a challenge for many organizations, leading to duplicating data and creating a bulk of extra attributes and data to keep everything in sync. Using FME, it is possible to synchronize Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) data with the ArcGIS Utility Network in real time. Changes (creation, modification, deletion) in ArcGIS Pro are relayed to EAM via FME, and vice versa. This ensures continuous synchronization of both systems without daily bulk updates, minimizes risks, and seamlessly integrates with ArcGIS Utility Network services. This presentation focuses on the use of FME at a Dutch water company, to create a sync between the asset management and GIS.Pardeep Kullar - Likeourselves Bringing Online Communities Offline via Geolocation - Geomob Feb 2011
