Computer Society Mixed Bag Webinar #1
Discovery - from sociology to cyber in farming to devops
We are starting a series of online seminars, where two or three presenters make short presentations on an intentionally diverse range of topics, aiming to be both informative and stimulating, and maybe there will be a hidden theme you might surface!

Agenda
Catherine Sinclair
Computer systems engineer
Catherine will present a crazy idea to build a large-scale sociological modelling framework by leveraging defence tech currently used to simulate combat engagement. Her aim is to unravel the systemic complexity and cumulative impact of inequity and to promote open discussion about the mechanisms of structural violence.
Andrew McDonnell
Maker, engineer & cybersecurity practitioner
Andrew will be discussing how farming is the oldest information business, and how well placed the agricultural industry is to weather the 21st century from an information security perspective.
Moira Clarke
Experienced software engineer
Moira will be exploring a buzz-word that has emerged in the last few years, ‘DevOps’, and how its principles, practices and tools can help your software team build, test and deploy reliably.
A mixed bag, from conferencing to cyber & beyond
