China unveiled on Tuesday its first-ever medium- and long-term plan for space science development, looking to establish itself as a "global space science power" by 2050.10月15日，中国发布首个国家空间科学中长期发展规划，目标到2050年成为 “全球空间科学强国”。The plan, which was jointly released by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the China National Space Administration and the China Manned Space Agency at a news conference held by the State Council Information Office, aims to achieve "landmark original results with significant international impact".该规划由中国科学院、国家航天局、中国载人航天工程办公室在国新办举行的新闻发布会上联合发布，旨在取得“具有重大国际影响力的标志性原创成果”。It outlines the development goals of China's space science, including 17 priority areas under five key scientific themes. The themes include the extreme universe, the sun-Earth panoramic view, habitable planets, and biological and physical sciences in space, said Ding Chibiao, vice-president of the CAS.该规划明确了中国空间科学发展的目标，提出5大科学主题和17个优先发展方向。中国科学院副院长丁赤飚介绍，这些科学主题包括“极端宇宙”“日地全景”“宜居行星”和“太空格物”等。China will explore the habitability of celestial bodies in the solar system and of exoplanets, as well as conduct missions to search for extraterrestrial life, Ding said, adding that the priority areas also include sustainable development, the origin and evolution of solar system, and characterization of planetary atmospheres.丁赤飚补充，中国将探索太阳系天体和系外行星的宜居性，开展地外生命探寻。优先发展方向包括可持续发展、太阳系考古、行星圈层刻画等。The key scientific questions to be addressed include the habitability and signs of extraterrestrial life on Mars, icy moons and ice giants, and exoplanets.需要解决的关键科学问题包括火星、冰卫星、冰巨星以及系外行星的宜居性和地外生命迹象。The plan outlined a three-phase road map leading to 2050.该规划提出了至2050年中国空间科学发展路线图。By 2027, China intends to continuously secure world-class achievements in disciplines where it has a strong foundation and advantages, such as high-energy time-domain astronomy, the origin and evolution of the moon and Mars, and microgravity physics.到2027年，中国计划在高能时域天文观测、月球和火星的形成与演化、微重力物理科学等有基础、有优势的领域不断取得世界级成就。Additionally, it will consider implementing a series of space science missions in cutting-edge areas, including dark matter and extreme universe studies, gravitational waves, exoplanets, and solar activity. In these fields, five to eight missions will be proposed and initiated, with two to three major projects expected to deliver landmark results.此外，中国将考虑实施一系列前沿领域的空间科学任务，包括暗物质和极端宇宙研究、引力波、系外行星和太阳活动。在这些领域，中国将论证立项5-8项任务，其中两到三个重大项目有望取得里程碑式的成果。Between 2028 and 2035, China will deploy a range of space science missions, envisioning about 15 projects in frontier areas such as the early universe, nearby habitable exoplanets, early solar system exploration and the search for extraterrestrial life.2028年至2035年期间，中国将部署一系列空间科学任务，设想在早期宇宙、附近宜居系外行星、早期太阳系探测和寻找地外生命等前沿领域开展约15个项目。During this phase, China will also continue operating the Tiangong space station, undertake feasibility studies for crewed lunar exploration and the establishment of an international lunar research station, and conduct approximately 15 space science satellite missions.在这一阶段，中国还将继续运营天宫空间站，开展载人月球探测和国际月球科研站建设的可行性研究，并论证实施约15项空间科学卫星任务。Between 2036 and 2050, China aims to achieve international leadership in critical fields, establishing itself as a "global space science power".2036年至2050年，中国的目标是在重要领域达到世界领先水平，成为“全球空间科学强国”。During the period, the country aspires to make "revolutionary breakthroughs in basic research" in areas such as the origin and evolution of the universe, the nature of space-time, the origins of the solar system and life, and crewed deep-space exploration, thereby "expanding the boundaries of human knowledge and advancing human civilization".在此期间，中国希望在宇宙起源与演化、时空本质、太阳系与生命起源、载人深空探测等领域取得“基础研究的革命性突破”，从而“拓展人类知识体系，推动文明进步”。Meanwhile, China also plans to guide the global development of space science, proposing over 30 missions and positioning itself with core competitiveness and strong leadership in the next wave of the scientific and technological revolution.同时，中国还计划引领全球空间科学发展，提出30余项任务，使其在新一轮的科技革命中具有核心竞争力和强大领导力。Lunar missions月球探测任务At the news conference, Yang Xiaoyu, director of the Department of System Engineering at the China National Space Administration, revealed more details about China's specific plans for future lunar exploration.在新闻发布会上，中国国家航天局系统工程司司长杨小宇透露了中国未来月球探测计划的更多具体细节。The Chang'e 7 robotic probe will investigate the environment and resources on the lunar south pole, while the Chang'e 8 robotic probe will carry out technological verification of in-situ resource utilization, he said, noting that the two missions will form the basis of the proposed international lunar research station.杨小宇介绍，嫦娥七号将要对月球的南极环境和资源进行探测，嫦娥八号将开展月球资源就位利用的技术验证，二者会构成正在论证的国际月球科研站基本型。Yang also shared the progress in research related to lunar samples brought back to Earth. In December 2020, Chang'e 5 brought back 1,731 grams of lunar soil, which he said is the "youngest moon sample" ever obtained.杨小宇还分享了带回地球的月背样品相关研究进展。2020年12月，嫦娥五号从月球取回了1731克月壤样品，这是人类迄今为止拿到的最年轻的月球样品。Research has found that volcanic activity on the moon occurred as recently as 120 million years ago, and it has been discovered that the moon's cooling rate is much slower than previously thought, Yang said.杨小宇表示，研究发现，在1.2亿年前月球已发生了火山活动，且月球变冷的速度比人们原来认识的要慢得多。Scientists have identified a new mineral in the lunar samples and named it "Chang'e Stone", which is the sixth mineral ever discovered on the moon by mankind, he added.杨小宇补充，科学家们也在月球样本中发现了一种新的矿物，并将其命名为“嫦娥石”，这是人类在月球上发现的第六种新的矿物质。panoramicadj. 全景的habitabilityn. 宜居性extraterrestrialadj. 地球外的cutting-edge area前沿领域envisionv. 展望，想象

Today I want to introduce you to a company that I admire greatly, End to End Computing. The company amongst a host of other things specializes in Application Development (DevSecOps), Cybersecurity (continuous defense detection and responses, Cloud & IT (engineering, integration & modernization) as well as Emerging Tech. Leading the company at the C suite are two amazing founders, Esteve mede and Carlton Harris. Esteve is a former Federal Chief Information Security Officer with over 17 years of experience delivering results to both the private and public sector. Esteve is a dynamic Information Technology executive with a broad technology, cyber security, operations, and business background in diverse types of organizations. Carlton has over 12 years of experience in the information security and cybersecurity field supporting a vast number of government agencies including the US Navy, National Security Agency, US Army Intelligence command, and Department of State. Carlton's technology proficiencies are in SOC implementation, Incident Response, and Cloud Security architecture and design. There are two reasons why I am excited for you to hear this podcast: EEC has developed a centralized Security Operation Center (SOC) platform call Singularity to continuously monitor and improve the security of an organization while preventing, detecting, analyzing and responding to cybersecurity incidents. EEC has created a team within their organization that brings blockchain solutions to the government space. With the launch of my new NFT on the ERC-20 I have now familiarized myself with all things blockchain. I am also seeing the potential it has to solve most of the needs that federal agencies incur. For small businesses who may also have technical founders, listen to the portion of the interview where we discuss their change in strategy to start winning opportunities. For IT companies wanting to model EEC success we share initial struggles, how to show the government or client they need what you are selling, also the partnership opportunities in working with EEC. If you are serving a government client or federal agency throughout the interview We discuss how their solution is solving government client problems right now. Lastly we meet the founders here about their backgrounds and take a few questions from the audience. This was a live interview that we did last year at the American Cyber League Grand Opening @ Quantico Cyber Hub. Oh and by the way, they are 8a, SDVOSB, primes on Stars III, Navy Seaport, GSA Schedule 70 amongst other alphabets in the government soup mix. Warning: It does get really technical in the middle but stick with us throughout (non technical) we do get to the good stuff after the technical piece. Let's welcome our next Giant, End to End Computing.

Overcoming Last Mile Challenges with Israel Duanis Israel Duanis and Joe Lynch discuss overcoming last mile challenges. Israel is the Vice President of the Logistics and Last Mile Delivery Platforms at Via, where he oversees all facets of Via's logistics-related business. About Israel Duanis Israel Duanis is the Vice President of the Logistics and Last Mile Delivery Platforms at Via, the leader in TransitTech, where he oversees all facets of Via's logistics-related business. Via's logistics and last mile delivery team provides solutions that improve the efficiency, sustainability, and scale of current logistics operations for retailers, operators, and government entities -- in addition to helping these partners expand to new offerings for the emerging home delivery sector. Prior to Via, Israel was the CEO and co-founder of Fleetonomy, an intelligent logistics and fleet management software company that was acquired by Via in 2020. Israel received his B.Sc. in Physics, Math and Computer Science from The Hebrew University and his M.S in System Engineering from The Technion. He is based in Tel Aviv, Israel, where he lives with his family. About Via  Via Logistics provides end-to-end technology that will enable operators, retailers, government entities and more to serve more customers with fewer vehicle miles traveled. With 150+ partnerships around the globe, Via's advanced delivery platform can do what no other platform can: manage deliveries seamlessly, allowing partners to have full control and visibility into its operations while keeping customer satisfaction and environmental sustainability top of mind. Key Takeaways: Overcoming Last Mile Challenges Israel Duanis is the VP of Logistics and Delivery Platforms at Via, which provides an advanced delivery platform that enables retailers and carriers to manage last mile deliveries seamlessly, with full control and visibility into its operations. Via's platform enables their customers (retailers, last mile carriers, etc.) to deliver a world class delivery experience, while minimizing environmental impact. As consumers increasingly choose to have their purchases delivered to their homes, retailers and ecommerce companies are faced with a decision – use delivery services like DoorDash, Instacart, and Shipt to manage the delivery or manage the delivery internally. It is not an easy choice. If the retailer decides to partner with a delivery service they risk losing some control over the transaction. For example, if a person buying groceries online chooses to process the transaction via Shipt, the consumer is using the Shipt app, and interacting with Shipt people. The grocer loses a valuable interaction with the customer and may even lose customer data. On the other hand, if the retailer decides to manage deliveries internally, they are faced with starting and managing a delivery business that requires advanced routing technology to run effectively and efficiently. Via is the answer for many retailers because they provide a white-label routing technology solution that enables retailers to run their own delivery network. Partnering with Via also means retailers can focus on their core business rather than trying ramp up a freight tech development group. Via also provides a world-class routing technology solution for last-mile delivery services. To succeed in the last-mile delivery business, carriers must be effective (deliver on-time) and efficient (using the fewest resources especially time and fuel). Via's routing solutions are used all over the world and enable companies large and small to deliver efficient and scalable last-mile deliveries.

In this episode, Val and Dale talk to Tim Acland about the value of systems engineering as well as the challenges it faces when integrating various technical components with clashing methodologies at scale. Tim grew up in Dorset, Scotland, Cornwall, Somerset, southern Belgium and Bavaria, following the career path of his father, who was a UK Royal Naval Helicopter pilot, later becoming a NATO instructor in crisis management. After a natural affinity to Physics and Chemistry in secondary school, playing around with hobby electronics kits, theatrical lighting and band amplification in his free time, he eventually went to university to study Electronics with French and German. This was a five-year degree with a focus on Telecommunications and included a year at exchange universities in each of Germany and France. As well as having a great time, he managed to cover similar technical material three years in a row, in three languages, resulting in a good familiarity of concepts from different perspectives, but a challenge of ever finding the right words to explain them. Dale can attest to how many words it takes Tim to get a concept across. Tim’s degree was a Masters of Engineering, which included the study of the business of engineering, looking at Economics, Accountancy, legal aspects such as Intellectual Property and Liability, Statistics and Project Management. Tim was lucky during his degree to get some very good work experience opportunities, with hands-on placements at a range of design, manufacturing and operations sites including Motorola Research Labs in Paris, affiliated radio control systems suppliers in the UK and Germany and the Sky Digital uplink station near Southampton. On graduating, he had to adjust his career plan, as the market was flooded with telecommunications engineers, after the collapse of Nortel Networks, and the impact of the 3G licenses and infrastructure investment on the network operators’ cash position. He fell into working with Marine Radar technology at a very interesting time of change in both technology and workforce generations. He had the luxury of gaining a huge amount of experience with little pressure and little progression through the hierarchy of his employer, working on a range of products and projects. It was around this time that Tim had the pleasure of meeting and working obliquely with Dale. In the last five years, he has been involved as the technical figurehead in the sale of a UK business into a newly formed multinational defence electronics conglomerate, at least two reshuffles of business structure, and is being challenged to lead the strategy on a rapidly evolving product portfolio and supply chain of the UK business. #PAYITFORWARDJoin us today at https://www.projectchatterpodcast.com/ for access to bonus content!Don't forget to buy some Project Chatter merch on our charity store, where all profits are donated to our charity partners.

MLOps community meetup #40! Last Wednesday, we talked to Theofilos Papapanagiotou, Data Science Architect at Prosus, about Hands-on Serving Models Using KFserving. // Abstract: We looked to some popular model formats like the SavedModel of Tensorflow, the Model Archiver of PyTorch, pickle&ONNX, to understand how the weights of the NN are saved there, the graph and the signature concepts. We discussed the relevant resources of the deployment stack of Istio (the Ingress gateway, the sidecar and the virtual service) and Knative (the service and revisions), as well as Kubeflow and KFServing. Then we got into the design details of KFServing, its custom resources, the controller and webhooks, the logging and configuration. We spent a large part in the monitoring stack, the metrics of the servable (memory footprint, latency, number of requests), as well as the model metrics like the graph, init/restore latencies, the optimizations and the runtime metrics which end up to Prometheus. We lookod at the inference payload and prediction logging to observe drifts and trigger the retraining of the pipeline. Finally, a few words about the awesome community and the roadmap of the project on multi-model serving and inference routing graph. // Bio: Theo is a recovering Unix Engineer with 20 years of work experience in Telcos, on internet services, video delivery and cybersecurity. He is also a university student for life; BSc in CS 1999, MSc in Data Coms 2008 and MSc in AI 2017. Nowadays he calls himself an ML Engineer, as he expresses through this role his passion in System Engineering and Machine Learning. His analytical thinking is driven by curiosity and hacker's spirit. He has skills that span a variety of different areas: Statistics, Programming, Databases, Distributed Systems and Visualization. // Final thoughts Watch some old meetups on our youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG6qpjVnBTTT8wLGBygANOQ ----------- Connect With Us ✌️------------- Join our Slack community: https://go.mlops.community/slack Follow us on Twitter: @mlopscommunity Sign up for the next meetup: https://go.mlops.community/register Connect with Demetrios on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dpbrinkm/ Connect with Theofilos on LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/theofpa

Aus der letzten Folge "DevOps - You build it, you run it!" wissen wir, dass DevOps eine Methode ist, bei der die Bereiche IT-Entwicklung und IT-Betrieb miteinander verbunden werden. Aus zwei Teams wird eins. Klingt leicht, ist es aber nicht unbedingt. Heute, in unserer zweiten DevOps Folge, helfen uns Sören Fillsack und Sebastian Erler dabei, eine andere Perspektive einzunehmen. Sie bieten einen Einblick in Ihren Arbeitsalltag und berichten davon, wie sie selbst diese Zusammenlegung erlebt haben: Sebastian Erler kommt aus der Softwareentwicklung und ist somit der „Dev-Teil“ und Sören kommt aus dem IT-Betrieb und bildet den „Ops-Teil“ in der neuen Struktur. Hören Sie selbst. Auf unserer Website finden Sie weitere Informationen, wie Blogbeiträge und Links zu jeder Folge: https://bit.ly/2Cp6wKc

This podcast is the first part of an interview with Betsy Clark, President of Software Metrics. In the interview we discussed the recently published book 'Integrating Program Management and Systems Engineering'. The book is a joint effort between PMI and International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE). Among her contributions to the book Betsy provided two case studies, one on the development of the F/A 18E/F Super Hornet which is the subject of much of this podcast. The book is the product of five years of research and writing by a large team of contributors led by Eric Rebentisch and is both a really solid reference and a guide for integrating the two often conflicting disciplines of program management and systems engineering. The post System Engineering and Program Management F/A 18E/F case study with Betsy Clark appeared first on ULFIRE.
