Introducing Jupyter Book 2: Next-generation Tools for Creating Computational Narratives
<p>Jupyter Book is a core tool for sharing computational science, powering more than 14,000 open, online textbooks, knowledge bases, lectures, courses and community sites. It allows researchers and educators to create books and knowledge bases that are reusable, reproducible, and interactive.</p>
<p>Over the past two years, we have rebuilt Jupyter Book from the ground up, focused on allowing authors to produce machine readable, semantically structured content that can be flexibly deployed, reused, and cross referenced in unprecedented ways. We achieved this by adopting, stewarding, and developing the MyST Markdown Document Engine (mystmd.org), a more flexible and extensible engine that integrates with Jupyter for interactive computation. Jupyter Book 2 represents a major leap forward in how we share and distribute computational content on the web.</p>
<p>In this talk, we cover the key ideas driving Jupyter Book 2 and MyST, and showcase real-world examples like The Turing Way, and Project Pythia. We'll demonstrate major new functionality with live demos, and give the audience practical tips for getting started with the new Jupyter Book 2 stack.</p>

<p>At the current rate of digitization, it is estimated that it would take hundreds of years to fully digitize the natural science collections of Europe. In the face of the biodiversity crisis, we urgently need to scale up digitization to equip researchers with the tools to tackle this challenge. </p> <p>The Distributed System of Scientific Collections, DiSSCo, is a fully open source European infrastructure that is bringing together over 300 institutions into a unified, digital natural science ...

<p>The exponential growth of scientific literature—doubling roughly every nine years—has made it increasingly difficult for researchers and decision-makers to locate, assess, and synthesize the evidence needed for sound policy and practice. Systematic maps and systematic reviews offer robust, unbiased ways to answer “what works?” but today they depend on manual search and screening workflows that are slow, costly, and vulnerable to human error. The result is a bottleneck: high-quality, ...

<p>AI has become an integral part of modern research, offering tremendous opportunities, but also raising important questions for the Open Science community.</p> <p>With the emergence of the Open Source AI Definition (OSAID) and its emphasis on the four freedoms, the “freedom to study” stands out as a cornerstone for achieving true reproducibility. You can read the OSAID definition here: https://opensource.org/ai/open-source-ai-definition.</p> <p>This talk will explore how researchers can ...

<p>vLLM (https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm) has rapidly become a community-standard open-source engine for LLM inference, backed by a large and growing contributor base and widely adopted for production serving. This talk offers a practical blueprint for scaling inference in vLLM using two complementary techniques, quantization (https://github.com/vllm-project/llm-compressor) and speculative decoding (https://github.com/vllm-project/speculators). Drawing on extensive evaluations across ...

<p>Quantum computing creates new opportunities, but building and operating a quantum cloud service remains a complex challenge, often relying on proprietary, black-box solutions. To bridge this gap, we introduce OQTOPUS (Open Quantum Toolchain for OPerators and USers) [1], a comprehensive open-source software stack designed to build and manage full-scale quantum computing systems. OQTOPUS provides a complete cloud architecture for quantum computers, covering three critical layers: 1.Frontend ...

<p>NoiseModelling is an open-source platform for simulating environmental noise propagation and generating regulatory-compliant noise maps at urban and regional scales. Leaded since 2008 by the Joint Research Unit in Environmental Acoustics at Gustave Eiffel University, it provides researchers and practitioners with reproducible, transparent, and scalable modelling capabilities for environmental acoustics. As the modelling core of the Noise-Planet framework, NoiseModelling simulates noise ...
