Virtual Campfire - Digital Media Discourses between Cultures, Continents and ...Ralf Klamma
This document discusses using digital media and new technologies to facilitate knowledge sharing across cultures, generations, and distances. It proposes a "Virtual Campfire" platform that would:
- Allow international communities to communicate and cooperate on cultural heritage projects.
- Preserve knowledge through non-linear digital storytelling and multimedia narratives stored in a database.
- Provide tools for localizing content, addressing different communities, and creating multimedia stories.
The goal is to bridge gaps between groups and prevent loss of knowledge by facilitating its sharing online through social software and knowledge management strategies.

Case studies include multimedia processing and metadata, social network analysis in the cloud, and mobile multimedia elastic cloud applications. The summary states that cloud computing provides on-demand scalability, drives new data processing systems, allows fast development of scalable multimedia services, and has benefits for multimedia systems by offloading heavy tasks to cloud services. It asks what types of tasks are reasonable to implement in the cloud.
Mobile Community Cloud Computing: Emerges and EvolvesDejan Kovachev
With the advent of mobile smart phones, new types of virtual communities arrived, i.e. mobile communities. Mobile communities, with respect to their IT needs, introduce new requirements compared to traditional online web communities. On the other hand, cloud computing is emerging as computing concept that promises provision of computational resources on demand and abstraction of technical details from the clients. We propose Mobile Community Cloud Platform (MCCP) as a cloud computing system that can leverage the full potential of mobile community growth. An analysis of the core requirements of common mobile communities is provided before we present the design of our cloud computing architecture that supports building and evolving of mobile communities.

Mobile Multimedia Cloud Computing and the WebDejan Kovachev
Mobile multimedia services are in high demand, but their development comes at high costs. The emergent computing paradigm cloud computing has great potential to embrace these issues. In fact, we are at the early stage of the coalescence of cloud computing, mobile multimedia and the Web. Motivated by the tremendous success story of the Web based on its simplicity principles, we argue for a comprehensive review on current practices of web and mobile multimedia cloud computing techniques for avoiding frictions. We draw on experience from the development of advanced collaborative multimedia web applications utilizing multimedia metadata standards like MPEG-7 and real-time communication protocols like XMPP. We propose our i5CLoud, a hybrid cloud architecture, which serves as a substrate for scalable and fast time-to-market mobile multimedia services. This paper demonstrates the applicability of emerging cloud computing concepts for mobile multimedia.

The model defines core and optional metadata for describing media assets distributed via a peer-to-peer network. It also includes mappings to existing metadata standards. The model structures content into P2P-Next Items containing media files, metadata descriptors, and additional resources. An API based on MPEG-M allows creating and parsing the metadata descriptions.
This document summarizes an approach for automatically profiling virtualized media processing functions using telemetry and machine learning. The approach involves:
1. Collecting various metrics (e.g. throughput, latency, entropy) about a virtualized media processing function using telemetry tools.
2. Analyzing the collected metrics to identify key performance indicators (KPIs) that relate to service quality defined in a service level agreement (SLA).
3. Mapping the identified KPIs to the virtualized media processing function using machine learning in order to enable more efficient telemetry-based monitoring and reduce overprovisioning of infrastructure resources.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
"Choosing proper type of scaling", Olena SyrotaFwdays
Imagine an IoT processing system that is already quite mature and production-ready and for which client coverage is growing and scaling and performance aspects are life and death questions. The system has Redis, MongoDB, and stream processing based on ksqldb. In this talk, firstly, we will analyze scaling approaches and then select the proper ones for our system.
"What does it really mean for your system to be available, or how to define w...Fwdays
We will talk about system monitoring from a few different angles. We will start by covering the basics, then discuss SLOs, how to define them, and why understanding the business well is crucial for success in this exercise.
