Automated scheduling algorithms have many applications in the real world, from manufacturing to transport to space. This talk will give a general overview of scheduling problems and the algorithms that exist

'''Elena Kelareva''' is a software engineer/researcher working for OMC International, a maritime consulting company which makes software for ports. Elena has been involved in developing algorithms for the Dynamic Under Keel Clearance software used by most major Australian ports to determine safe sailing times for ships. She is about to start a PhD on automated scheduling at ANU, with a case study of scheduling ships at a port.

'''LUV-Beginners''' October 18


Open-source hardware platforms, such as the Arduino, have become reasonably inexpensive, quite capable, with good connectivity options. In addition, a vast range sensors and actuators are now available.  Most

importantly, active and innovative developer communities have made Arduino hacking a truly fascinating activity.  More recently, instrumenting the world with large scale device networks has emerged as
a contender for the one of the "next big things".


This presentation will (briefly) cover the basics of getting an Arduino environment running on Linux. The main focus will be on demonstrating interesting ways in which you can create interactions between your Linux system, some Arduino controllers and a variety of connected devices (including some wearable computing).

'''Andy Gelme''' has been working and playing with Unix for a very long time ... and got into Linux around the time of SLS 1.03 and kernel 0.99pl12, when everything fitted onto ten 3.5" floppies.  His main area of interest is in distributed systems, particularly when applied to large scale device networks.  From 2000 to 2008, Andy was the technical lead of an R&D project that developed home / building automation systems (amongst other things).  Some of the resulting distributed system framework and development environment is in the process of being released as open-source.  More recently, Andy has been involved in starting the

"Above the line" voting means your favourite political party can choose where preferences will be distributed, and you may not know (or like) their decisions. auprefs is an open source web application to visualise preference distribution in Australian elections, to better inform voters where their vote might go. Paul will talk about why he did it, and how it is implemented, including force-directed graphs and the amazing d3 Javascript graphing library.
Paul Foxworthy is an open source developer whose day job is working on Australianising and customising the Apache OFBiz ERP system. He is a committer to the OFBiz project and also currently serves as a director of Open Source Industry Australia. He is very pleased to have finally done something just possibly cool enough to give a LUV talk.

"Above the line" voting means your favourite political party can choose where preferences will be distributed, and you may not know (or like) their decisions. auprefs is an open source web application to visualise preference distribution in Australian elections, to better inform voters where their vote might go. Paul will talk about why he did it, and how it is implemented, including force-directed graphs and the amazing d3 Javascript graphing library.

Paul Foxworthy is an open source developer whose day job is working on Australianising and customising the Apache OFBiz ERP system. He is a committer to the OFBiz project and also currently serves as a director of Open Source Industry Australia. He is very pleased to have finally done something just possibly cool enough to give a LUV talk.
