Topic: Scrum under a Waterfall Methodology Abstract: It would be so easy if everyone at our companies just used Scrum—or at least Agile. No one would lean on the team for dates and deadlines, and everyone would know that change is a good thing. It'd be one great big happy project management family. But let's face it—an all-Agile organization isn't always possible. Maybe you have a Project Management Office. Maybe you work for a government contractor. Maybe you have regulatory requirements. Maybe you're the first Scrum/Agile project at your company. Maybe your company simply *likes* it this way. Whatever the reason, Agile teams frequently report into Waterfall organizations. Your team thinks "backlog" and your bosses think "project plan." How do you make it work? How do you ensure communication and foster trust between the two groups? How do you bridge the project management impedance mismatch? The chocolate and peanut butter of the project management world. These products integrate and replicate so that the Agile/Scrum and Waterfall groups can work with the tools they want to work with, play nice together, and get what they need to do their jobs. In this session, we will talk about strategies to improve communication between the two constituencies. Along the way we discuss some of the difficulties with making Scrum/Agile work in a Waterfall-centric organization and what you can do to minimize the problems. Jason Haga Senior Researcher Information Technology and Research Institute, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Japan Biography Jason Haga is currently a senior researcher in the Information Technology Research Institute of AIST.

Topic: Developing a Framework for End-user Requirements in a Disaster Scenario Abstract: The effective use of multiple types of data is important for the decision making process during the response to unfolding events during a disaster. To facilitate the use of data, it must be simplified and presented in an easy-to-understand manner to disaster response experts. By focusing on the user-interface functionality and requirements, the corresponding technologies can be developed and implemented. Importantly, the user-interface must be very easy to use especially in quick onset, time-critical disaster situations. This session will explore the necessary framework and requirements for end-users in quick onset disaster types (e.g. tsunami, flooding, etc.) It will highlight the importance of the continuity of data and the differences in end-users usage. Also, potential use-case scenarios will be identified and defined through user card stories. José A.B.

Topic: Software-defined Datacenters and Environments continued on next page Abstract: The extraordinary success of cloud computing and datacenters capable of providing infrastructure as a service is largely due to the savings experienced by consumers who no longer have to manage IT resources and only pay for what they use for the period of time when they use it. However, this value proposition has been evolving to include also the enablement of highly agile computing environments capable of continuous adaptation and customization for the dynamic demands of cloud consumers. In fact, agility and dynamic optimization support are becoming key differentiators of cloud providers and the services and systems they host. To enable these differentiators requires resources – compute, storage and networks – as well as environments – systems middleware and application software – to be software-defined, i.e. programmatically configurable and supportive of cross-layer management. This presentation will introduce the many aspects of software-defined infrastructure and environments and use examples to illustrate software-defined compute, storage, networking, monitoring and optimization solutions.

Topic: Beyond Taxonomy-fostering the Integration of Biodiversity and Ecological Data in Taiwan Abstract: Biodiversity and Ecology are disciplines that emphasize the integrative, collaborative approach. The fields have rapidly matured over the past century by individuals and groups to include large-scale, long-term, multidisciplinary projects that generate diverse datasets using sophisticated analytical approaches. As biodiversity and ecological research become increasingly multidisciplinary way, it means that the research is data-intensive, and multifaceted approach. Therefore, the need of integrating data is manifest since no individual scientist, or even small group of scientists, can collect all the data that are needed to address the major research questions. Integrating data that support publications facilities the scientific ideas of replication, building on previous work and syntheses is an obvious benefit. This talk reports the work has been developed in Taiwan.

Chun-Houh Chen 陳君厚 Research Fellow and Deputy Director Institute of Statistical Science, Academia Sinica, Taiwan Biography After receiving his Ph.D. in Mathematics (program in statistics) from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 1992, Chun-Houh Chen started his professional career as an assistant professor at The George Washington University (Department of Statistics/Computer and Information Systems), USA. In 1993, Dr. Chen went back to Taiwan to continue his research career at the Institute of Statistical Science, Academia Sinica. Development of data visualization methodologies with dimension reduction techniques such as SIR (sliced inverse regression), and pHd (principal Hessian direction) were the main focus of Dr. Chen's early research works. Through years of collaboration and application works with psychiatrists and biomedical experts Dr. Chen shifted his research interests to dimension free matrix visualization and information mining. Dr. Chen's group is now working on methodologies and applications of matrix visualization techniques for visualizing different types of large data sets from various biomedical studies and social surveys. Dr. Chen is now Research Fellow and Deputy Director, Institute of Statistical Science, Academia Sinica, Taiwan. He also serves positions at the following academic organizations and scientific journals: Chairperson of The Asian Regional Section (ARS) of The International Association for Statistical Computing (IASC): 2013~2015; President of the Chinese Institute of Probability and Statistics (CIPS, Taiwan): 2013~2016; Associate Editor for (Computational Statistics and Data Analysis, Computational Statistics, BMC Research Notes, Journal of the Japan Statistical Society, Taiwanese Journal of Psychiatry). Topic: Matrix Visualization: New Generation of Exploratory Data Analysis continued on next page Abstract: “It is important to understand what you CAN DO before you learn to measure how WELL you seem to have DONE it” (Exploratory Data Analysis: John Tukey, 1977). Data analysts and statistics practitioners nowadays are facing difficulties in understanding higher and higher dimensional data with more and more complex nature while conventional graphics/visualization tools do not answer the needs. It is statisticians’ responsibility for coming up with graphics/visualization environment that can help users really understand what one CAN DO for complex data generated from modern techniques and sophisticated experiments. Matrix visualization (MV) for continuous, binary, ordinal, and nominal data with various types of extensions provide users more comprehensive information embedded in complex high dimensional data than conventional EDA tools such as boxplot, scatterplot, with dimension reduction techniques such as principal component analysis and multiple correspondence analysis. In this talk I’ll summarize our works on creating MV environment for conducting statistical analyses and introducing statistical concepts into MV environment for visualizing more versatile and complex data structure. Many real world examples will be demonstrated in this talk for illustrating the strength of MV for visualizing all types of datasets collected from scientific experiments and social surveys. Two issues on MV for BIG data, computation of proximity matrix with display of data and proximity matrices, will also be discussed.

Since the existing data provisions have mainly come from the space missions with wide applications range (covering many military and civil ones), it has driven the cost of their space systems to very high in addition to their high cost of manpower for the space systems development. In Taiwan, we have maintained a low cost system development policy ever since the inception of the mission development. This speech will address our low cost space SAR system approach and how to verify the defined system in the coming 2015-2018 years with the actual hardware and software. With focused applications (i.e., concentrating on the services for the Taiwan users first), the system can use low cost payload technologies such as deployable lightweight reflector antenna, GaN SSPA HPA, Tunable bandwidth signal generator, etc. Also, the NSPO low cost microsatellite bus technologies (GNC, etc.) will be evaluated for use in the envisioned SAR small satellite bus.

Topic: Communication-efficient similarity search on data in a machine-to-machine environment Abstract: A machine-to-machine (M2M) environment refers to a network of devices capturing various readings. When performing any computing tasks in an M2M environment, transmission cost including the energy and bandwidth consumption is always one of the most important concerns. This talk will describe our work to do ad hoc similarity search on time series and other types of data in an M2M environment when available bandwidth is limited. We propose a unified framework to handle both k-nearest and k-furthest neighbor (kNN and kFN) queries in a distributed environment, while significantly reducing the bandwidth consumption without causing any false dismissals. More important, we can handle not only the kNN and kFN to one reference time series but also to a reference set comprising multiple ones. Analytical and empirical studies showing the significant bandwidth saving of our proposed method will also be described in the talk.

Topic: Multi-Domain SDN Management and Software Defined eXchange(SDX) Abstract: Software-defined networks (SDN) changes the network operations by helping users develop their own strategies freely without the limited functions on physical machines provided by specific venders. It is very important to manage and maintain an OpenFlow network since many organizations apply OpenFlow in their data centers. However, OpenFlow does not support Inter-domain scenarios currently. In this talk, Inter-Domain SDN connectivity is investigated and implemented with friendly GUI. In the future, we would like to connect several SDN domains with Software Defined eXchange (SDX) concept. Jeng-Wei Tsai 蔡正偉 Associate Professor Department of Biological Science and Technology, China Medical University, Taiwan Biography Dr. Tsai is currently an associate professor at the Department of Biological Science and Technology in China Medical University (Taiwan). His professional specialty and research interest center on aquatic ecology and toxicology by using field / laboratory-derived data analysis and mechanistic modeling. There are three areas included in his researches: watershed-lake carbon cycling and lake metabolism, climate change ecology, aquatic toxicology from subcellular to ecosystem levels. He has published approximately 30 articles in high impact journals, for example, Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, Ecotoxicology, Environment International and Freshwater Biology etc. These researches have been very useful in assessing the ecological risk of natural and anthropogenic disturbances on the aquatic ecosystems over different temporal and spatial scales. Dr. Tsai is shortlisted as a candidate for the Canada Research Chair (Tier II in Aquatic Ecotoxicology/Fish Behaviour) in 2014. Topic: Temporal and Spatial Variation of Metal Biomagnification: Effect of Ecosystem Metabolism Across the Globe continued on next page Abstract: Metal (e.g. mercury, arsenic and cadmium) pollutions in aquatic ecosystems remain a global concern and are of interest to aquatic ecotoxicologist, because metals can biomagnify along the food chain to harmful levels in fish, their predators or consumers. Understanding whole ecosystem metabolism (EM) in the natural environment is critical for management, because gross primary production (GPP) and ecosystem respiration (R) are the major metabolic pathways of carbon and provide a measure of the overall biological activity of an ecosystem. Scientists recently suggest that the EM could serve as a sentinel to monitor the effects of environmental change on regional aquatic ecosystem function and structure. Because EM of freshwater provides a fundamental index of cross-ecosystem connectivity that responds to natural and human disturbances (e.g., deforestation and chemical disposition). We hypothesize that the addition of easily degradable organic materials during the periods of higher GPP might consequently facilitate microbial activity, maximize the mineralization of recalcitrant organic matters (i.e., priming effect) and thus stimulate the metal biomagnification. Therefore, the euntrophication resulted from climate change or land cover changes might enhance the metal biomagnifications in lakes located in high latitude area, surrounded by natural forests, characterized by high allochthony/water color or in seasons with low productivity. Samplings and investigations will be conducted by comparing the factors or process that control metal biomagnifications across lakes at local, regional and global scale. Long-term periodically observations of lake metabolism, metal biomagnifiation will be regularly monitored in fish, zooplankton, algae and other aquatic species in lakes or ponds with contrasting trophic status and watershed coverage across continents by global lake ecosystem observatory society and cyberinfrastructure. In addition to the scientific findings, results are also expected to contribute to the knowledge of ecosystem conservation, management, remediation, environmental legislations and aquacultural practices.
