Convincing Global Transport Behemoths To Partner With Your Startup w/ Jessica...

TheFamily

Winning your first few enterprise clients as a start up is an incredibly rewarding experience, but it’s also hard work. Convincing big businesses to pick you over incumbents, trust your technology and buy into your business model is not easy - how do you do that? Jessica shared insights about some crazy challenges she faced during her time at ViaVan, which is on a mission to revolutionise public transport - an industry that’s super slow to evolve and involves non tech-savy players. ViaVan was founded only in 2017 and is already on track to launch 200 B2B deployments in 2019 - an amazing achievement but the road there has been really intense and bumpy to say the least! - How did ViaVan win their first client? - How did they convince large incumbents to partner with them? - How do they work with larger and often less tech-savy partners?

It then discusses how in 2005, Portland opened its transit data in the GTFS format, which has since been adopted by 596 transit agencies worldwide and led to the development of many transit apps. The document also notes that open data in London and Massachusetts has gone beyond just bus data to include other modes of transportation. It argues that making transportation data openly available can save agencies money and improve commutes by enabling private sector innovation and app development.

Smart Gigabit Communities have the potential to accelerate this process by allowing for deeper connections between different sectors. This could help attract venture capital funding to regional hubs working on issues like autonomous vehicles, healthcare, and smart energy grids that require collaborative solutions beyond any single company.

The Geni Experiment Engine

US-Ignite

The document discusses the goals and concepts of the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) project. The goals are to rapidly deploy distributed applications across infrastructure within 5-15 minutes. It uses containers instead of virtual machines to efficiently use resources. Key concepts are using containers as the execution environment, leveraging cloud tools like Docker and Ansible for orchestration, and deploying applications as "slicelets" of connected containers. Current deployment includes the GEE portal and services are in progress like storage, reverse proxy, and custom container images. The overall aim is to allow deployment of applications across infrastructure within minutes using standard tools.

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment

Octavian Nadolu

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject. We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup. Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved. The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring. The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise. By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing

Aftab 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. - These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days

Kari 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.
