Hello, my fellow villagers!

Did you know there is a project called ProSense?
It's funded by European Commission's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7),
and it's aim is to raise the level of research potential of researchers from WBC
(Western Balkan Countries), particularly ones from FYRO Macedonia and Serbia
with help from the EU academic institutions and companies.

The project coordinator is Dr. Srdjan Krčo (Ericsson Ireland Research Centre).
Other partners are:
  • Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies, Macedonia
  • INRIA, France
  • University of Birmingham, UK
  • Warsaw University of Technology, Poland
  • CTI, Patras, Greece
  • University of Belgrade, Serbia
  • Jozef Stefan Institute, Slovenia

The project motto is:
"Promote, Mobilize, Reinforce and Integrate
Wireless Sensor Networking Research and Researchers:
Towards Pervasive Networking of West Balkan Countries and the EU"

The project started a year ago and it should end in March 2010.

I work as a part-time researcher at the School of Electrical Engineering (ETF),
University of Belgrade, Serbia. The team that I am part of has to design two WSN use-cases
- two Personal Health applications. Also, we have to establish a course and a laboratory for WSN at ETF.
We have several SunSPOT, Shimmer and Sensinode Development Kits to play with (since few weeks).

That's it for an introduction, now go on and browse our site and get back with comments!

Marko, I noticed the sensor project ProSense has ended, or has it? I have worked with sensors including the SunSPOT. There's a lot of talk from some corners about SunSPOTs. What are a few of the most outstanding things you've learned so far? Best, Michael

Happy 10th year, JCertif!

Shifting Platform Development from Projects to Products

A company shifted from project- to product-thinking after their platform outgrew single-team use. The limitations that they felt with their platform were one-off deliveries, lack of product vision, and weak feedback loops. They have moved toward a self-service, API-driven, multi-tenant infrastructure with clearer ownership and better abstractions.

Apple Extends Private Cloud Compute to Google Cloud for the First Time

Apple chose Google Cloud to run Private Cloud Compute outside its own data centers for the first time, using NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, Intel TDX, and Google's Titan chip. Apple maintains an independent append-only hardware ledger and dual-vendor attestation roots. AWS and Azure are not part of the collaboration.

Presentation: Enhancing Reliability Using Service-Level Prioritized Load Shedding at Netflix

The speakers discuss Netflix’s architecture for surviving extreme traffic spikes. They explain the mechanics of prioritized load shedding embedded in their Envoy sidecar proxy, allowing user-initiated requests to steal capacity from non-critical traffic. They share automated platform strategies for continuous chaos load testing, config generation, and retry storm mitigation.

Presentation: Graph RAG: Building Smarter Retrieval Workflows with Knowledge Graphs

Cassie Shum discusses the architectural evolution of GraphRAG and why data foundations are critical for advanced AI workflows. She explains how traditional vector RAG falls short when addressing global context, multi-hop reasoning, and provenance. She shares enterprise strategies for building semantically structured knowledge graphs that shift raw orchestrating logic down to the data layer.
