With increasing frequency, new independent collaborative journalistic platforms, in addition to the obvious aim of telling particular stories, are focused on helping to change a situation or solve a specific problem. Where does this trend come from? Is the purpose of journalism changing? Is there any impact on the business model?
This is a journey through the case histories of journalistic solutions, to build a possible common and replicable pattern.
UX is not just about building huge coherent web architectures. We have become digital nomads - building tents, rather than building houses, in environments that suit our needs. People no longer inhabit worlds built by designers, but in worlds built by themselves.
Increasingly it is about building applications and understanding how applications interact with each other and their embedded environment. It is about forging relevant links with technologies that are appropriate. Relevance has surpassed usability as the most important factor of web strategy and web design.
Context defines how usable your experience needs to be, and we are steadily moving from interface design to concept design...IA and UX has for many years looked at the web in a traditional one way communications paradigm, where it is all about conveying a message to the end user.
But the Internet is NOT the new newspaper, the new radio or the new television. The web is actually not a medium at all, if anything it is a paradigm of interaction. It is something completely different which as a discipline we need to demonstrate with an open approach to our design work, that is documented, shared and refined.
Those involved in the field must realize that usability is becoming more bound by context and relevance to individual needs, it cannot be merely prescriptive.
Esperienza utente e fruizione dei contenuti nei quotidiani online in Italia.Cristiano Rastelli
Partendo dall’esperienza acquisita e vissuta in prima persona durante i due anni di lavoro che hanno portato prima alla realizzazione e poi al successivo mantenimento del sito web di un piccolo giornale d’opinione a diffusione nazionale, cercheremo di portare la nostra analisi sul rapporto fra esperienza utente e fruizione dei contenuti anche ai siti web dei principali quotidiani presenti in Italia, per provare a immaginare come i nuovi modelli di business che stanno facendo breccia nel mondo dell’editoria impongano necessariamente un nuovo approccio verso qualità, quantità e fruibilità dei contenuti offerti al lettore/consumatore/cliente, e quindi un nuovo spazio di intervento per chi si occupa di architettura dell’informazione e design dell’esperienza utente.

Introduction to Web 3 - Tony Aube at WAQ19Tony Aubé
Watch with English closed captions: https://youtu.be/PQHEwuUOplQ
In the 2000s, sites like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter marked the arrival of Web 2.0. At the time, we were already wondering what would be the Web 3.0. Today we have the answer: Web 3.0 (simply called Web3) is the transition to a decentralized Internet.
The Internet is doing very badly today. Censorship, centralization, surveillance, data piracy, misinformation, the abolition of neutrality, etc. Fortunately, several solutions are being developed to solve these problems: Tim Berners-Lee's Blockchain and Cryptocurrency, IPFS and Solid.
This presentation aims to highlight these projects. We will see how these promise the creation of a decentralized Internet. An Internet beyond the control of private companies and governments. An Internet that will exchange value as easily as it is possible to exchange information today. And finally, an Internet where users are in control of their own personal information.

Introducing Information Architecture at The GuardianMartin Belam
An introduction to the information architecture of The Guardian newspaper in London, presented by Martin Belam at the April 2009 London IA Mini Conference
This session will be an introduction to concepts relative to the Modern Web. The Web has come a long way since it’s inception over a quarter of a century ago. We will explore a bit of history, where we were, how far we have come and the new technologies that deliver on the promise of a modern web experience, and digital transformation. We will define “the Modern Web” and explore selection criteria for a few of the tools of the trade. The goal is for Scorpions to walk away with a better understanding of the concepts and thinking relative to the Modern Web and to generate further interest in the domain.
From the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas, Ray Ozzie, Chief Software Architect, will be joined by Corporate Vice President, Scott Guthrie and General Manager, Dean Hachamovitch to demonstrate the latest technologies built for Microsoft's Web platform. Ray will lay out his vision of the future to this audience of Web designers and developers from around the world

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
