Agile Software Architecture
Agile software architecture aims to deliver value fast by evolving the architecture during the project based on what is important now, rather than defining it upfront. This reduces risk and waste by allowing decisions to be made based on actual knowledge gained during development. The architecture should be the simplest solution to support current functionality and evolve economically through changes without making the software worse. Principles like separation of concerns, refactoring, and tests that drive design help enable evolving the architecture in a controlled way.

Enterprise DevOps
This document discusses the DevOps lifecycle and practices for improving software development and delivery. It outlines several DevOps models including WebOps, NoOps, and Enterprise DevOps. Key challenges discussed include long release cycles, lack of visibility, inconsistent incident tracking. Solutions proposed are reducing mean time to detect and repair issues through improved monitoring, diagnostics, and integration between development and operations teams. Continuous learning is also emphasized to prioritize investments based on data from customer usage and application health.
Accelerating Business Agility with Modern ALM
Modern application lifecycle management (ALM) practices can help accelerate business agility by enabling value delivery through agility, quality, and scale. These practices involve planning with business stakeholders and product owners, developing and testing with developers and testers, releasing working software, and monitoring and learning from operations. Implementing the right people, processes, and tools at each stage of plan, develop, release, and operate allows organizations to more quickly plan, develop high quality software, release at scale, and continuously improve based on operational insights.
Devops the Microsoft Way
Devops is a cultural movement gathering developers and IT Pros responsible for operating applications around common values, goals, practices and tools in order to accelerate development and deployment cycles, creating fast feedback loops between development and operations. Like agility 15 years ago, Devops adoption, accelerated by Cloud platforms adoption, involves organizational, cultural, as well as tehcnical aspects. Emerging movement a few years ago, now well established at consumer web and mobile companies, Devops starts to get in the Enterprise.
This presentation will explain the cultural and organizational aspects of the Devops movement, then will give an overview of the most common tools that are used to implement a Devops approach, showing that Microsoft is one of the few providers proposing a complete and integrated toolset, that works seamlessly for .NET developers, while integrating the most popular third party open source and proprietary tools, making Azure a great platform to implement a Devops approach for Linux, Java and open source workloads. We will talk about Visual Studio Online, Windows Azure, System Center, Windows Server, Azure Pack, PowerShell, NewRelic, Chef & Puppet integrations, Jenkins, …

DevOps: A Culture Transformation, More than Technology
DevOps is not a new technology or a product. It's an approach or culture of SW development that seeks stability and performance at the same time that it speeds software deliveries to the business. We will discuss this cultural shift where development teams have to accept the feedback of operations teams and the operations team should be ready to accept frequent updates to the SW that it's running.

Much has changed in a short period of time in three areas: (1) the way we build software today in industry is very different than it was even 5 years ago, (2) the dynamics of open source have changed, (3) the average developer has drastically changed.
Using data I’ve collected from government statistics, and from various surveys and interviews, I’ll make the point that perhaps a traditional computer science degree might be overkill for average application developer jobs out there: a lot of jobs predominantly involve gluing together open source components rather than having to write components from scratch. I’ll also show that if you’ve been working for 5+ years in industry, then you are in a tiny minority of veteran programmers because there is a literal onslaught of entry-level developers entering the market, at a rate unseen before.
These data points are interesting because it affects all of us – both Academic and Industry.
REST API Security by Design with Azure Pipelines
WATCH WEBINAR: https://42crunch.com/webinar-questions-azure-pipelines/
REST API Static Security Testing Extension for Microsoft Azure Pipelines: https://bit.ly/42azure
Security is an important topic in software development. Unfortunately, security is usually considered too late in software development, and especially in the API lifecycle. Waiting until software and APIs are in production before addressing security concerns can be a severe risk to your organization. Did you know that vulnerabilities found in production cost up to 30x time and money more to fix?
There is a solution: by engaging developers early, educating them on API threats and uncovering real actionable issues in your APIs, you can act swiftly and save a lot of effort downstream.
In this webinar, we will
- Explain the concepts behind “shifting left” and how it can benefit your organization, both at quality and security levels.
- Explain how auditing your OpenAPI (aka Swagger) definitions gives early visibility to developers of potential security issues in APIs implementation.
- Demonstrate the functionality of the audit and which issues it detects.
- Describe how you can leverage audit at build time to ensure only contracts at the required level of security quality can be deployed.
- Demonstrate our new Azure Pipelines plugin and its discovery mechanism.
- We will be joined in the webinar by Steven Murawski from the Microsoft Azure Cloud Advocacy team.

This document discusses how software is essential for businesses today and how customer experience has become a key differentiator. It notes that while organizations want to develop new software ideas quickly, only 8% can approve, build, and deploy something in less than 3 months. The document then presents the "modern software factory" as a blueprint for success, noting it should be agile, use automation to save time and reduce errors, and leverage insights to improve experiences. It provides examples of companies that have improved release velocity and testing with DevOps and continuous delivery practices using CA software. The document also discusses why traditional testing can be a bottleneck and how continuous testing changes this by testing across the entire software development lifecycle.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
