The document describes the process of creating an advertisement plug in 4 stages. In stage one, the author created a blank document to the conventional plug size. In stage two, the author added a rugby player image and blue background color. Stage three saw the addition of the Six Nations symbol. Finally, in stage four, website details were added in the corner along with competition information. The author was pleased with the final plug design.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

Plug development
1. For my paper I decided to create my own Plug. A plug is
Stage One an advert for something within your paper. Plug’s are
conventional for the majority of newspapers in the
market today. I have decided to insert a plug due to me
wanting to follow as many conventions as possible. I
started the development of my Plug by creating a blank,
transparent document with a width of 5.8cm and a
height of 9cm. these were conventional measurement
of a plug. This was the basis of my plug.
The next step was to insert my picture that I gathered of
Google images. I started by editing the picture removing
the background so that I was left with just the player in
their air. I have decided to contain this content due to it
being relevant to the majority of my target audience. It
is also based around a big sporting event which might
appeal to people.
2. The next step in the development of my plug was to add
in a background colour. I had done this by drawing a box
in the background and making the colour blue. I decided
Stage Two to use the colour blue for a variety of reasons. Firstly
this shade of blue is significant to the six nations and
therefore is recognizable to some people. Secondly it
makes the player and the writing stand out, making it
eye catching to the reader which could lead to them
entering the competition.
The next part of my development is to start adding in
the writing. The writing that I will include will be about
the competition details and what is up for grabs. I have
started with writing in who is sponsoring the
competition. I have used white writing to make the
writing stand out so that people can Cleary read and see
it.
3. Stage Three
The next step of my development of the plug was to add
the six nations symbol in just under Neath the rugby
player in the bottom left corner. I have decided to include
this within the plug due to it being a symbol that my
target audience can relate with. I also think that it adds to
the aesthetics of the Plug.
The next step after adding in the symbol is to add
information in about the competition. I have added the
caption ‘Win Tickets Page 6’ so that the reader knows
what page to look at for details on the competition. I
have also done the writing in white so that it is
noticeable when looking at the plug from a distance. It
also fits in with the colour scheme used within the Plug.
4. For the final part of the plug development I have added
in website details in the bottom right hand corner. I
have added in website details because it allows readers
to visit my website for further details on the
competition and they can have a look at other
Stage Four competitions on offer. I have also decided to do the
writing in whit to make the website address stand out
making it easy for the reader to read. The colour white
fits in with the colour scheme used throughout the Plug.
I am very pleased with how the final Plug design has
turned out. I think that the colours used goes well with
the colour scheme of my paper. I think that I have
included the right information and haven’t over
crowded the plug with information. I like the fact that I
have made ‘Win’ larger than everything else drawing
the reader’s attention to it specifically. Overall I am very
happy with the process of the plug design and I think it
will fit well on the front of my paper.
