Feature Customizations and Implementations Using Oracle Web SDK Abhay Bhavsar and Rohit Dhamija, July 2020 Programming Pearls: Feature customizations and implementations using Oracle Web SDK Abhay Bhavsar and Rohit Dhamija, July 2020 Summary The purpose of this article is to provide a guidance to customer deploying digital assistant using the new Oracle Web SDK. It also explains the benefits of migrating from the deprecated 19.4.1 SDK to the new Oracle Web SDK 20.6.1 currently available on Generation 2 Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The Oracle Web SDK provides an extensive set of configurations and customizations using properties, event handlers and delegates. The article not only introduces the developers to various built-in capabilities but also provides some customizations that shows the extensibility of the SDK that are not available out of the box. It is assumed that you are familiar with client programming in JavaScript and understand basics of HTML/CSS. At the time of writing this article the latest version of Oracle Web SDK was 20.6.1. Disclaimer Please be aware that while this document demonstrates possible feature implementation using the JavaScript Web SDK, you have to decide the cost of those features. For example, not all channels that your bot is used on would support the features described in this article. The code supplied with this article comes with no support, so use at your own risk.

Train it. You may have the DA in Draft status. Figure 1: Import Digital Assistant • Extract the Web-SDK-Sample.zip file provided, the folder structure should look something like shown below: Figure 2: Locate the sample and index.html • Double click on index.html, so that it opens this page on your browser. You will observe a chat widget icon on the bottom right of the browser page. Click on the chat widget, you will observe the screen something like below: Figure 3: Launch chat widget Your chat-widget is ready, but wait, you cannot communicate with this digital assistant because you still need to set up the Oracle Web Channel and route your Digital assistant through it. So, let’s get started. SECTION – I – BASIC SETUP This section answers basic questions on how to set up an Oracle Web Channel and use basic features of the Oracle Web SDK. Here are some of the questions this section answers: Q.1 How do I migrate from old 19.4.1 Web SDK to Oracle Web SDK 20.6.1 available on ODA 20.0x on OCI GEN2? Ans: Refer to BAS.Q.1 of this section. Q.2 How to set up a new Oracle Web channel on Oracle Digital Assistant user interface? Ans: Refer to BAS.Q.1 of this section. Q.3 I am new to Oracle Digital Assistant, help me expose my skill or digital assistant on my website. Ans: You can deploy the sample provided with this article on your web site. You may also choose to store all the SDK files on Oracle Cloud e.g. Object Storage and only make a small change on your web site to run the bot. The HTML code snippet in the index.html page shows a sample of what script you need to embed inside the HTML page of your web site. You can run the bot over a simple HTML page, an Oracle Visual Builder application or deployed on Oracle Content and Experience cloud. Q.4 I need to make basic changes to the out of the box web interface to the sample provided with Oracle Web SDK. Ans: Refer to BAS.Q.3. This topic explains how to change the various icons and make basic UI changes to the chat widget. It also refers you to another article that provides a step-by-step guide on how to do this. Q.5 May I continue using the existing 19.4.1 web channel and SDK on the migrated ODA 20.0x version on OCI GEN 2? Ans: Oracle strongly suggests moving to the Oracle Web channel using the latest Oracle Web SDK 20.6.1 or above. The Oracle Web SDK is very easy to configure, has built-in properties to perform some advanced features and is voice enabled. The old 19.4.1 web channel forces end user messages to be routed through a third party cloud while the Oracle Web SDK is a completely Oracle only solution. The old 19.4.1 channel will be discontinued in near future. Q.6 My migrated instance works fine and my existing web channel continues to function, so why should I change? Ans: The existing channel is only provided so that the migration activity does not disrupt currently deployed bots. It is recommended to create a new Oracle Web Channel and use some techniques provided in this article to improve the overall user experience. You can approach the PM team who would be glad to assist in this migration. Q.7 Can I edit the old web channel so that it can point to a newer version of my skill or DA? Ans: The old 19.4.1 web channel is deprecated and is only provided for a limited time. The channel is read only so that customers are encouraged to move to Oracle Web SDK. YOUR EXISTING WEB CHANNEL (MIGRATED FROM 19.X TO 20.X) WILL BE READ ONLY AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MAKE THE CHANGES TO THE CHANNEL, BUT THE CHANNEL RUNTIME WOULD WORK WITHOUT ANY ISSUE. BAS.Q.1 : Set up ODA Web Channel using Oracle Web SDK You will learn to host and run Oracle Digital Assistant chat widget. The following screen shot shows a 19.4.1 web channel which is no longer supported. So we create a new Oracle Web channel. Figure 4: Deprecated 19.4.1 Web Channel You have already imported the digital assistant and trained it. This topic discussed how to create the new Oracle Web channel and configure it to point to your DA. 1. Open Oracle Digital Assistant click on the top left hamburger menu and navigate to Channels menu 2. Under Users tab, click on + Channel button, as shown below: Figure 5: Create new channel 3. Click the + Create Channel button and set the following options: a) Provide a name to the channel, e.g. ITMgmtBotWebChannel. b) Select Channel Type as Oracle Web. c) Under Allowed domains enter * d) Disable the client authentication enabled option. e) Click on the Create button. Figure 6: Creating a new channel. The Allowed Domains restricts this channel from being communicated by specific domains to ensure anonymous web sites or test pages do not send messages to this channel. Note: For this section, please set the Allowed Domains to *. You will run the sample web page locally on your computer (so no domain involved). The client authentication mechanism is explained in the advanced section of this article. 4. Now set Route to ITMgmtDA digital assistant and toggle the Channel Enabled switch to show enabled. Figure 7: Configure oracle web channel 5. Next, please take a note of the Channel Id, as well as the Oracle Digital Assistant instance URI as shown in the image below. You need the ODA URI & Channel ID for configuring the chat widget. Figure 8: Copy URI from address bar 6. Configure the downloaded sample to point to your Oracle Web channel you just created. a) Locate the web folder extracted from the Web-SDK-Sample.zip file. b) Open settings.js (web/script/settings) and update values for URI and channel ID Note: The URI does not contain the protocol i.e. https:// f) Save settings.js file and close it g) Run the index.html in your browser.

    Comparative Studies of 10 Programming Languages within 10 Diverse Criteria Revision 1.0 Rana Naim∗ Mohammad Fahim Nizam† Concordia University Montreal, Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada Quebec, Canada [email protected] [email protected] Sheetal Hanamasagar‡ Jalal Noureddine§ Concordia University Montreal, Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada Quebec, Canada [email protected] [email protected] Marinela Miladinova¶ Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada [email protected] Abstract This is a survey on the programming languages: C++, JavaScript, AspectJ, C#, Haskell, Java, PHP, Scala, Scheme, and BPEL. Our survey work involves a comparative study of these ten programming languages with respect to the following criteria: secure programming practices, web application development, web service composition, OOP-based abstractions, reflection, aspect orientation, functional programming, declarative programming, batch scripting, and UI prototyping. We study these languages in the context of the above mentioned criteria and the level of support they provide for each one of them. Keywords: programming languages, programming paradigms, language features, language design and implementation 1 Introduction Choosing the best language that would satisfy all requirements for the given problem domain can be a difficult task. Some languages are better suited for specific applications than others. In order to select the proper one for the specific problem domain, one has to know what features it provides to support the requirements. Different languages support different paradigms, provide different abstractions, and have different levels of expressive power. Some are better suited to express algorithms and others are targeting the non-technical users. The question is then what is the best tool for a particular problem.

As a step toward this goal, I introduce a Javascript widget library for creating Web applications that can both read from and write to the Semantic Web. In addition to providing widgets that perform editing operations, access control rules for user-generated content are supported using FOAF+SSL, a decentralized authentication technique, allowing for users to independently manage the restrictions placed on their data. I demonstrate this functionality with two examples: an aggregator application for exploring information about musicians from multiple data stores, and a universal annotation widget that allows users to make public and private comments about any resource on the Semantic Web.

  • Integration of Web Technologies Into Wincc OA Based Human-Machine Interfaces at CERN
    20th International Conference on Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics (CHEP2013) IOP Publishing Journal of Physics: Conference Series 513 (2014) 012009 doi:10.1088/1742-6596/513/1/012009 FwWebViewPlus: integration of web technologies into WinCC OA based Human-Machine Interfaces at CERN Piotr Golonka1, Wojciech Fabian, Manuel Gonzalez-Berges, Piotr Jasiun, Fernando Varela-Rodriguez CERN: European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva, Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The rapid growth in popularity of web applications gives rise to a plethora of reusable graphical components, such as Google Chart Tools and JQuery Sparklines, implemented in JavaScript and run inside a web browser. In the paper we describe the tool that allows for seamless integration of web-based widgets into WinCC Open Architecture, the SCADA system used commonly at CERN to build complex Human-Machine Interfaces. Reuse of widely available widget libraries and pushing the development efforts to a higher abstraction layer based on a scripting language allow for significant reduction in maintenance of the code in multi-platform environments compared to those currently used in C++ visualization plugins. Adequately designed interfaces allow for rapid integration of new web widgets into WinCC OA. At the same time, the mechanisms familiar to HMI developers are preserved, making the use of new widgets "native". Perspectives for further integration between the realms of WinCC OA and Web development are also discussed. 1. Context and problem specification The screens of operator consoles for many of the control systems at CERN display highly specialized applications built on top of the Simatic WinCC Open Architecture commercial SCADA product (formerly known as PVSS), from ETM/Siemens.

  • Direwolf: a Framework for Widget-Based Distributed User Interfaces
    Journal of Web Engineering, Vol. 13, No. 3&4 (2014) 203{222 c Rinton Press DIREWOLF: A FRAMEWORK FOR WIDGET-BASED DISTRIBUTED USER INTERFACES DEJAN KOVACHEV, DOMINIK RENZEL, PETRU NICOLAESCU, ISTVAN´ KOREN and RALF KLAMMA Advanced Community Information Systems (ACIS) Group, RWTH Aachen University Ahornstr. 55, Aachen, 52056, Germany [email protected] Web applications have overcome traditional desktop applications especially in collab- orative settings. However, the bulk of Web applications still follow the \single user on a single device" computing model. Therefore, we created the DireWolf framework for rich Web applications with distributed user interfaces (DUIs) over a federation of heterogeneous commodity devices supporting modern Web browsers such as laptops, smart phones and tablet computers. The DUIs are based on widget technology coupled with cross-platform inter-widget communication (IWC) and seamless session mobility. Inter-widget communication technologies connect the widgets and enable real-time col- laborative applications as well as runtime migration in our framework. We show that the DireWolf framework facilitates the use case of DUI-enabled semantic video annotation. For a single user it provides more flexible control over different parts of an application by enabling the simultaneous use of smart phones, tablets and computers. We con- ducted a technical evaluation and two user studies to validate the DireWolf approach. The work presented opens the way for creating distributed Web applications which can access device specific functionalities such as multi-touch, text input, etc. in a federated and usable manner. In this paper, we also sketch our ongoing work to integrate the WebRTC API into DireWolf, where we see opportunities for potential adoption of DUI Web applications by the majority of Web users.
