Event Description

The Sunjug kicks off 2010 on Febraury 24th, with a presentation by Steve Goldsmith on Security Assertion Markup Language(SAML).

SAML is an XML-based standard for exchanging authentication and authorization data between security domains, that is, between an identity provider (a producer of assertions) and a service provider (a consumer of assertions). SAML is a product of the OASIS Security Services Technical Committee.

Since there are many facets to SAML Steve will give a brief overview of SAML and then jump right into a real world scenario using a service provider. The service provider will accept an encrypted and signed assertion from an external entity which will be decrypted and have its attributes revealed. This can be used to integrate an external entities' SSO system into legacy web applications without the need to implement expensive and complex federated security solutions like SIteMinder, etc.

Steve has built the code using OpenSAML for encryption and signing assertions as well to allow end to end testing using Apache Http Client. He will cover topics all the way down to creating RSA key pairs in a Java key store using keytool, so in essence this is a complete solution. The talk will not be covering SSO solutions like JOSSO as this is perhaps better covered at a later date.

About the presenter:
Steve Goldsmith is Sr. Software Architect at WAZAGUA in Bradenton Fl and is a frequent presenter at the Sunjug.

The event will be hosted by Community Foundation of Sarasota, located at 2635 Fruitville Rd, Sarasota, FL 34237, which is west of exit 210 off I75.

Presentation: Dynamic Moments: Weaving LLMs into Deep Personalization at DoorDash

Sudeep Das and Pradeep Muthukrishnan explain the shift from static merchandising to dynamic, moment-aware personalization at DoorDash. They share how LLMs generate natural-language "consumer profiles" and content blueprints, while traditional deep learning handles last-mile ranking. This hybrid approach allows the platform to adapt to short-lived user intent and massive catalog abundance.

Article: Redesigning Banking PDF Table Extraction: A Layered Approach with Java

PDF table extraction often looks easy until it fails in production. Real bank statements can be messy, with scanned pages, shifting layouts, merged cells, and wrapped rows that break standard Java parsers. This article shares how we redesigned the approach using stream parsing, lattice/OCR, validation, scoring, and selective ML to make extraction more reliable in real banking systems.

Designing Memory for AI Agents: Inside Linkedin’s Cognitive Memory Agent

LinkedIn introduces Cognitive Memory Agent (CMA), generative AI infrastructure layer enabling stateful, context-aware systems. It provides persistent memory across episodic, semantic, and procedural layers, supporting multi-agent coordination, retrieval, and lifecycle management. CMA addresses LLM statelessness and enables production-grade personalization and long-term context in AI applications.

Pretext.js Bypasses DOM Layout Reflow, Enabling Advanced UX Patterns at 120 FPS

Cheng Lou, a Midjourney engineer, recently released Pretext, a 15KB open-source TypeScript library that measures and lays out text without browser layout reflows, enabling advanced UX/UI patterns like infinite lists, masonry layouts, and scroll position anchoring to run at 60-120 fps. Pretext was built using an AI loop that reverse-engineered the DOM’s layout calculations.
