The document provides an overview of the French digital ecosystem and key dynamics in 2016. It discusses the growth of the global digital ecosystem driven by internet players and device manufacturers. In France, the mobile market is very dynamic in terms of equipment usage and data consumption. Broadband subscriptions are also growing strongly, largely in the form of bundled plans. Telecom operators remain essential to the French digital ecosystem, however their revenues and employment levels have declined in recent years despite increased infrastructure investments to support demand for high-speed broadband.
This report is a reminder that telecom operators are the pillars of the digital economy. It also stresses that France and Europe are at risk of a "digital slip" despite recent initiatives. It calls for public authorities to restore a balance in digital-related policies, by benchmarking against best practices from around the world.

Using the ICT sector as a growth engine instead of a cash cow – Uganda in FocusChristoph Stork
Rather than fostering economic growth, the government of Uganda is looking at ways of raising additional tax revenues from the ICT sector. This ignores the role of the ICT sector as a contributor to other sectors of the economy. Removing all ICT sector excise duties would facilitate GDP growth, stimulate job creation and help the informal sector to become more formal, leading to a wider tax base and higher tax revenues. Economic growth will generate more tax revenues and enable investment in other parts of the economy, such as infrastructure. The ICT sector needs to be turned into a growth engine to power Uganda’s ambitious development programme.

Findings from the latest edition of the Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) Mobility Report show that by 2020 advanced mobile technology will be commonplace around Latin America & Caribbean: smartphone subscriptions will more than double, reaching 603 million, and 86% of the Latam’s population will be using smartphones.
The report, a comprehensive update on mobile trends, shows that growth in mature markets comes from an increasing number of devices per individual. In developing regions, it comes from a swell of new subscribers as smartphones become more affordable; Latin America will add +330 million smartphone subscriptions until year-end 2020.

The DRC is considering imposing a tax on voice bundles of USD 0.0075 per minute, USD 0.003 per SMS and USD 0.00005 per MB. At the same time, the regulator has prohibited any price increases. The net effect will be to slow investment and economic growth. The new proposed taxes on SMS, minutes and data will limit the commercial freedom of mobile operators and force SMS, voice, data and mixed bundles to be withdrawn because prices cannot be increased. The net effect will be an indirect price increase through the withdrawal of bundles. This will hit the poor hardest.

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).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

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.
