Bridging the Cyber-Physical World with Robotics and Smart Sensors
Chong Jia Yi
GovTech’s Digital Operations Smart Services (DOSS) platform uses deep learning to develop smart sensors and autonomous robotics. The robot dog SPOT and smart thermal scanner SPOTON were both developed on the DOSS platform. Jia Yi will share his experiences developing DOSS and plans for the platform.
CBOR: For Faster M2M Communication
Isham Mohammed
In this talk, Isham will introduce CBOR (RFC 7049 standard) to the audience and explain the essence of the existence of CBOR and how that makes M2M communication faster.
Break
The Socially Responsible Behaviour through Embodied Thinking (SORBET) Project: a COVID-19 response
Kenneth Y T Lim, Ahmed Hazyl Hilmy
Have you been thinking about how settings of learning might be designed to help nurture socially responsible behaviour, such as investing the self-discipline to develop the habit of social distancing? Both Kenneth and Ahmed will invite you to their sharing on the SORBET Project.
Workshop: Hiding PII and malware with Stegware
Juan Araya
In this workshop, learn what is steganography, how it can be used to hide PII data and even send malware and C&C IPs on pictures and audio files.
A Change-Data-Capture use-case: designing an evergreen cache
Nicolas Frankel
CDC is a brand new approach that "turns the database inside out": it allows to get events out of the database state. This can be leveraged to get a cache that is never stale.

Don't be Afraid of the Terminal
Adrienne Tacke
At some point in our developer careers, we've all looked at this intimidating window of darkness called the terminal. Despite its efficiency & power, many choose GUIs instead. Adrienne will demystify the terminal, from its origins up to its powerful commands. You'll leave a new fan of the terminal!
Securing Singapore with Augmented Reality: a pandemic-proof prototype
Tan Li Yuan Marcus, Siddhant Shrivastava
PlantAR is an AR application for securing our National Critical Infrastructures in COVID19. The talk and live demo will share the best practices learned about designing pandemic-proof teleoperation software through the lens of a hobby project in an operational Cyber-Physical Systems testbed.
Break
META II: A compiler-compiler that generates its own code
Melvin Zhang
Most of the time we treat compilers as black boxes but what really goes on under the hood? In this demo, I will demonstrate a DSL for writing compilers and a compiler-compiler that turns the DSL into a compiler. Amazingly, we can describe the compiler-compiler itself in only 26 lines of the DSL.
Supercharge your JavaScript with Web Assembly
Tamas Piros
Browser & Web APIs along with JavaScript have seen an incredible amount of enhancement over the past decade, however they still have certain limitations. With the rise of Web Assembly we can easily enhance JavaScript and give application(s) access to low-level processing & transform web experiences.
