Kaleidoscope, a FP6 network of excellence, kick off meeting 040309Nicolas Balacheff
Kaleidoscope, a FP6 network of excellence in the technology enhanced learning (TEL) research area, was created in 2004 following a four years contract with the European commission. The aim of the network was to foster integration of different research disciplines relevant to TEL, bridging educational, cognitive and social sciences, and emerging technologies. This ambition was both scientific and strategic:
- It was scientific by its aim “to develop a rich, culturally-diverse and coherent theoretical and practical research foundation for research and innovation in the field”, exploring “the different conceptual frameworks of relevant disciplines in order to delineate the commonalities and differences that frame the research objectives in the field”
- it was strategic by its aim “to develop new tools and methodologies that operationalise an interdisciplinary approach to research on TEL at a European-wide level” with the expectation of a significant impact at the international level.
To bring this ambition to reality, in a very fragmented European TEL research area, it chosen to involve a large number of contributors of which only a small number were already collaborating, and a large range of different research themes. A set of instruments was planned to support the construction of the network and the integration process at both the content and the infrastructure level.

The project "Development and Implementation of a Program Advancing Research Education and Exploitation for the Support of National Innovation Systems" aims to reinforce the universities’ capability of exploiting their research, while opening their results to industry in order to promote innovation. The exploitation of research is dealt with from two perspectives: how can universities improve the quality and quantity of their research publications to benefit industry? And how can a better knowledge transfer in the domains of research and innovation take place between university and industry?
PARENIS develops a two phased program over three years. The first phase implements five research methodology courses for Master and PhD programs. These courses are focused on enhancing master and PhD students’ capabilities of doing and writing good research. Lecturers from PC universities are involved in the training process to be able to continue to teach the new courses beyond the project lifetime. The subsequent mobility phase enables students to integrate European research teams to learn more about how to put the methodologies into practice.
In the second phase, PARENIS creates mechanisms and procedures to intensify research collaborations between academia and industry. It initiates innovation labs to create a space in which universities and enterprises identify opportunities for joint research and define agendas for collaborative work. Beside the innovation labs, the project launches offices for research exploitation and marketing to ensure a permanent university-enterprise linkage. The EU institutions train the partner universities staff who will be in charge of operating the offices.
The Horizon Report Europe: 2014 Schools Edition was produced by the European Commission in cooperation with a team led by Inholland University of Applied Sciences (the Netherlands) and the New Media Consortium (NMC), a US-based non-profit group bringing together international experts in educational technology. I am honored to be a expert in this report https://twitter.com/lucianecurator
The NMC Horizon Project from the New Media Consortium is a long-term investigation launched in 2002 that identifies and describes emerging technologies likely to have a large impact over the coming five years in education around the globe. The NMC Horizon Report Europe: 2014 Schools Edition, the first of its kind for Europe, examines six key trends, six significant challenges and six important developments in educational technology that are very likely to impact educational change processes in European
schools over the next five years (2014-2018). The topics within each section were carefully selected by the Horizon Project Europe Expert Panel, a body of 53 experts in European education, technology, and other fields. They come from 22 European countries, as well as international organisations and European networks. Throughout the report, references and links are made to more than
150 European publications (reports, articles, policy documents, blog posts etc.), projects (both EU-funded and national initiatives) and various policy initiatives from all over Europe. The Creative Classrooms multidimensional framework, developed by European Commission’s JRC-IPTS on behalf of DG EAC, was used for analysing the trends, challenges and technologies impacting European schools over the next five years. The analysis reveals that a systemic approach is needed for integrating new technologies in European schools and impacting educational change over the next five years.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

Consortium Strong impact for students’ recruitment, course
F G I promotion and master thesis supervision:
Local EMMC promotion via flyers and personal
Munich (D)
communication by Indian professors
Implication of Indian professors in the students’ selection
Torino (I) is mandatory for a high quality non-EU students
recruitment
Common master thesis supervision of EU and non-EU
Rennes1 (F)

Consortium But :
F G I
Exclusively European Master Students go to Japan
(essentially for the Master thesis project)
Munich (D)
no Japanese Master Students participate in our EMMC
Main obstacle:
Torino (I)
Japanese Master Students need a Japanese Diploma to
enter industry etc....
Rennes1 (F) Huge administrative task:
Coordinator
Common diploma with Japanese Universities

Consortium EM reputation as a brand worldwide:
F G I
Munich (D) EM stands today for European excellence in the field
of higher education not only in Japan and in India
Torino (I) EM is an important brand helping to approach
towards common curricula between EU and non-EU
institutions

21. Special problems encountered:
Future developpment of EMMC:
• Develop an international network of excellence as a platform of
teaching/research/R&D between university, research centres
and industry
• Attractive also for students without EM grant
• Towards common diploma (multiple or joint)
Opportunities given under the EM2 framework should
significantly help to overcome these difficulties
