 Okay, let's get started. It's 11 o'clock. Thank you for your attention. Because I'm quite alternative for today's meeting because I'm from university. Since yesterday a lot of enterprise big or small have shared their opinion. Actually for our universities we're also attending CNCF event. One is because of my personal interest. The other reason is because I'm trying to promote open source education in our university. That's why I want to take this opportunity to share with you about open source education in universities. First of all let me introduce myself. I'm from East China Normal University. I'm working in the Digital Engineering School which is newly established in 2016. My research is mainly about education education big data, smart education technology Actually I'm also combining open source with the education. This is my direction. I'm going to talk about three aspects. First about the open source new era. Why do we need to have open source in the universities? Second part is about what we have done in universities. Third thing is the resources we have used from CNCF including Kubernetes. We have heard that in the morning a lot of ecosystems based on Kubernetes, a lot of university students especially computer, science, and engineering students are also learning Kubernetes and other things. So how do we do this in the universities? Open source era I also want to briefly talk about the background of open source. Actually it's the trend. Open source is not only the whole world trend for technical development, it's also moving towards that direction. We have four key items here, connected, open cooperation and evolution. We can also experience that a lot in China. If we are looking back for the last 20 years of China's internet industry I think for the first two days we have companies like BAT, JD, and for the second decade we have the Meituan, etc. Actually connectivity is the foundation of China's internet industry. We have made some summaries in the writing. Actually the infrastructure maturity is the foundation for all these things. Actually the big change is taking place in the internet industry. Infrastructure maturity has caused some rise of emerging companies. Second is about the opportunities of algorithm. Because of AI, a lot of enterprises have utilized some algorithms. The third one is about data and platform. All the digital companies are platform based companies connecting consumer and supply side and all the resources can be digitized. All the users are online on the cloud. And the second keyword is opening. This is something we can also observe in the universities. We can research some open topics and promote some open ideas and we also have some open source technology and platforms. Actually we can also use one sentence to summarize that. So it's not just competition between open source and closed source. It's actually the competition of large scale open source and open source projects. So it involves different kinds of factors such as technology, community and talents. Whoever wins development will be able to win the world. Actually a lot of companies are doing this. They're trying to attract developers. One important example is Microsoft. They embraced open source by turning a very big turn. So open source is the trend. Same thing happens in our university. In the past we were trying to choose database, and now we're seeing everything is based on open source. When we're looking at big data and AI, you have no other options in addition to open source. You can only choose open source. In that case we need to embrace open source. For collaboration with the internet with open source ideas, coordination and collaboration is also something we need to embrace. Actually collaboration already has a lot of magical powers and wonderful mess pieces as we have known Wikipedia which has become a must for us like big hot stack overflow including bitcoin or blockchain technology. It's all the same. If we're using GitHub as an example for the developers, you would find within the short few years, although it has been for many years, but actually suddenly the developers are doing different kinds of collaboration on GitHub and a lot of key software are using global collaboration to build their software including Kubernetes etc. It's all based on collaboration of global developers. So from the university perspective, if a student graduates from the university, if they can know or they can get involved in global coordination and collaboration you will have more competitiveness on the market. Last but not least is about evolution. I don't know whether you think evolution is a good thing or bad thing. The good thing is that you can have different kinds of technologies emerging. So we have new millennium and DevOps in 2010. So the result is that you would find the technologies upgrading very quickly. In a few years ago you still have web bb. Now you're shifting to applet. Not only we chat mini-program but also DD and other apps. For the language you were doing developing on LOS or Android now you're creating your software on a new platform with a new language. So our view is that the technology is moving faster which cannot be stopped and for the rise of every new technology they will replace the workload of the old technology. So from the university perspective we need to inform the students that you need to understand about the machine and control the machines. It's not just for students from computer science or engineering actually for the other disciplines the students also need to understand about that. Second thing is that we need to understand and deal with open source. Because now we're already moving to an environment where open is the mega trend. So this is a brief conclusion interconnectivity, open, cooperation and evolution will be able to create the new generation of excellent IT talents, embrace internet, open and sharing and collaborative learning. You can become the new generation of excellent IT talents with open source spirits. So this is the opinion from the university perspective. So we want to build the basic skill sets that are needed for the new generation. So we need to do things around these things. Here I also want to mention about AI artificial intelligence because in addition to open source we have another trend which is AI. I don't want to talk too much here. I have three photos here. The first one is about AlphaGo which has a leading champion Go player and the middle picture is a cover article from the New Yorker titled Dock Factory. What does that mean? Actually in the factories with AIs actually have the lights on only when the reporters want to interview or visit they can turn on the lights and they can show you that we have achieved complete automation of the factory. AI and robotics have brought some impact to the existing work positions. For the third picture is a book issued by Joseph Allen titled Robot Proof What does that mean? Because waterproof means that it can prevent you from water when you buy a garment. If the garment is waterproof that means that you don't need to worry about water. If we're talking about robot proof you can get rid of being replaced by robots in the AI era. So what do the universities need to educate the students with what kind of skills so that when we are having more robotics technology how can they beat the competition of robots? Actually it gives us some inspiration from aviation industry. Actually we're not taking aviation technology as an artificial flying. It's just flying. So we should also not take technical intelligence as artificial it should be an intelligence enhancing human capabilities. So actually the technology is helping humans. This is what we want to say here and this can only be achieved through education and from knowledge oriented to capability oriented shift. Actually we need to improve the basic skills, core skills and overall understanding because the technology has very rapid iteration because of this background we need to take a shift. The third aspect is about the background. That was the background. Now I'm going to talk about open source education in universities and colleges especially when it can be combined with degree education. Now we have such a scenario and the last step we have the industry in the right side we have the academia and actually somewhere in between there is a gap. You would find that all of the new technologies exist in the industry including kubikong, cncf every enterprise is promoting their own technology. Another area is the academia which is also very dynamic we know that the universities and colleges are building AI disciplines big data disciplines. It seems to be very dynamic but actually the academia is also facing some problems. Their technology cannot keep up with the trend. For someone who can really understand about the business technology they have luck in their faculty. So the capability of the teachers are missing. So how to bridge the gap. We think that the open source community is a good channel for us to break the gap. It is not only encouraging our students to participate in the open source activities or open source technology sharing but also we need our teachers to embrace what is happening in the open source community so that goes back to what I have mentioned. The current big data or the other technical solutions they are all open source while you are teaching students AI you will use the related framework while you are talking about cloud you will use Kubernetes but if you do not use it that means that you are kind of backward or you are lagging far behind from the current technologies. So that is what we are thinking about how to use open source so as to bridge the gap between the academic field and industrial field. On the one hand we can transform some of the industrial or technical resources into some of the courses in the college. So we are thinking about a kind of like open source driven talent cultivation mode and today the conference is mainly related to the infrastructure. So for the infrastructure actually it is kind of cloud based infrastructure and then based on that we think that the GitHub surveys, the practical surveys has also become kinds of infrastructure so with people whose majors are computer science, GitHub is something they need to master naturally. It is just like you surfing online with the computer and certainly what we are thinking about is to establish a kind of higher education open source education and innovation platform across China so actually this morning I have noticed that the Linux foundation has established some open source colleges. So if we can have such a platform which can provide the standard service or practical service to the students so that will help us to do a lot of applications and the students can also put some of their programs on the gate and the reports or the training materials of teachers can also be put on gate and the other data can also be put here. So actually we have already found that for gate it is not only code which are stored there and a lot of overseas professors began to use some of the key things they have cited in their classes on GitHub as well so as to share it with everyone so I think it is a trend. So this is about the specifics thing we can do first is the open source related courses and this was in Cornell University the open source software engineering and for our university in September we will also open such a course so it is kind of program based or it is via the participation of some of the open source programs so as for students to realize how to co-operate in an open source program and how to understand and to learn more about the open source programs so we can try that in our school and as far as I know some Chinese universities have already had this kind of practice or trial they regard open source as a very important way to build the students capabilities. And second is what we have already done as we have mentioned we also want to provide the practical courses as a kind of service so that is what we are using our hands to contact more courses and for the practical courses the issue is there are too many open source software and if to establish the software environment sometimes they will meet some frustrations and cloud environment is also needed so that is why we want to provide a one stop IT training service platform that is any new framework can be applied to such a platform so as for students to get access to the open source knowledge and then they will have interest in it and then they will participate in such kind of open source technologies and with this infrastructure we can also organize some activities in schools this happened in the first half of this year I myself actually is a member of our open source organization and actually this activity actually has already happened in a number of universities in Shanghai for example we will give some courses or give some lectures on GIT or TensorFlow or we will later show some videos of Kubernetes and in July August we will go to Beijing Taiwan respectively in November we are going to have the China open source annual meeting so with this we can promote the open source courses in China and in the universities so what we are further thinking about is the kind of alliance of Chinese universities for open source so actually for last years open source annual meeting I have attended one of the sub forums that is open source education at that time we have invited some of the students who is responsible for the open source communities of the different universities and we hope that we can have some collision of our ideas so as to share the open source activities with different universities and also we hope that we can build such kind of open source atmosphere so as for people who are interested to interact with each other last and not least we are also exploring that is the open source software education fund we are thinking to establish a fund in the university university itself has the resources so if we can establish such kind of education oriented foundation for open source software that will better help us to cultivate open source software engineers and will also help us to integrate with the rest of the world and the last part is to echo today's topic so I want to use CNCF as an example to see how to implement that in our classes in our skills or in our activities so this is the practical course, platforms we have already built so believe that you know this it is an open source online course platform so if the practical courses can be realized via mode that will better help people to get the practical courses and that will also help teachers and students so we think that we have some innovation we have come up with the idea of called like gate course so we think that course like code can be shared or can be cooperated on gate so a lot of the practical courses we have done are on gate that is teachers together with the assistants collaborate with each other on gate and then they will also establish the environment description language on gate and then to use some website to explain so this will help students to have one click opening of the courses and there this way we actually have already iterated some of the standard courses like the library studies and the other practical courses so here I have an example before the examples we like to talk about the different kind of learning models the first is self help learning models that means you can choose any of the chapters or you can do any of the experiment and the second is kind of like a route oriented learning model so that will help you to go through one step to the other step and the third one is kind of like a free exploration model if you want to play with Drupal Notebook you can open it by yourself so that means anytime anywhere you have the access to the surveys and to the environment so this is the kind of demo of our gate course it is the TensorFlow which was in Tongji University so the students can follow the guide to carry out the different steps and then they can know that what can be done with the TensorFlow and can use the examples of the learning effect using TensorFlow and the CNCF we know that there are a lot of examples which can be used in practical courses because for CNCF most of the cases are related to infrastructure for example Kubernetes and this was just a video taped yesterday by some of our students with the small newsletter once you click on you will find some files on the left and then on the left on the right hand it is the Kubernetes environment you can learn and master and you can do some basic contours so the benefit of this is you can mostly have students to know some of the features of Kubernetes so if you have more interest you can do some of the more advanced functions and we hope that we can build this as an open service so as for software developers or for writers or for teachers to do their related courses on the platform to summarize where this way we hope to deploy the related open source technologies in schools or universities and then to realize some cooperation on Git and put the links in the Capcom and then we can provide some experiment for you to quickly experience about the stuff there so you can come up with some like hack phones or with some short videos or include it into the other library studies so with that the schools or universities will have better access to the open source technologies this is our team, our X-Lab so if you have interest you can scan the QR code here so with that I come to the end of my speech. Any questions? We have about 5 minutes for Q&A Can you hear me? We are doing open source education right now for the mainstream universities and colleges The students are participating a lot or very few students It's a very good question This is a challenge we are facing right now at the very beginning if you don't have very good marketing or you don't have very famous lecturers we don't have a very high involvement of the students that we have carried out We have more than 10 people or 20 people for the event we organize. This is very common I think for open source it's mainly based on the volunteer We don't have any commercial promotions so we're not pursuing for interests There are trends of open source when everything you're doing is related with open source I'm sure the students would know that trend and actually we're also slowly inviting some good content called lecturers I think that can attract the students So sometimes in some universities with less advantages they don't have many resources than they would like such events but for some other universities when they have many resources it's more difficult to attract the students Are you considering about working with industry some famous companies to run some projects in universities in that case without increasing engagement Because we're just starting we have invited a developer from Google community to give a lecture Now we're also working with Tencent and Adibaba This is what we're doing with open source social, we have an expertise We can invite those speakers So I think this format is very good At least gradually the university are trying to catch up because we're really missing that part in universities I have a question for your platform When the students are contributing to optimise the platforms, are many students doing that how can we attract them to be the social contributor What you're saying is also a challenge for us because for the platform core it's not so stable it's just like meaningless Only when you have a very stable and physical application scenario then you will be able to attract other developers So right now on this platform is mainly my students What I think when we carry out more events and when we're promoting that through our lectures maybe in the second half of this year we can complete the system then we can really open that to the public and do some promotion so that more people can join this This is also what we want to do with university open source So we want to utilize some channels to promote this but right now it's still within our own team Dr. Wang I have a question I'm from the industry I want to ask you if universities are establishing such a lab it would take a lot of expenses and labour Do you want to build together with the industry because enterprises want to have talent they can't find the right talents if some enterprises can develop that together with you when they are in need of talents I think there are a lot of such models Actually data school of East China Normal University has also established some in joint laboratories Actually they have two needs one is for technology research second is about talents Actually we don't specifically work with any individual or any individual organization because for open source we need to maintain its neutrality and openness We want to provide this platform to engage different organizations to do the same things on this platform We are working with Alibaba and Tencent so maybe they can put some of the open source projects on this in that case students would have more choices so that their interests can be met This is our idea We are also very welcome to the industry field to do something on our platform Time is up Okay So we can also have offline discussion
