1. The document discusses the "Book as a Service" approach which provides content through APIs on the cloud using social and freemium models.
2. It argues that content alone is not enough and that businesses need to adopt models like freemium that provide both free and paid content/access.
3. The "Book as a Service" approach aims to generate additional revenue through products, marketing, control, and income while addressing concerns around cannibalization through a low risk model.
Learning Moving Cast Shadows for Foreground Detection (VS 2008)
This document summarizes a research paper that presents a new algorithm for detecting foreground objects and moving shadows in surveillance videos. The algorithm uses Gaussian mixture models to learn pixel-based models of cast shadows on background surfaces over time. However, learning pixel-based models can be slow if motion is infrequent. To address this, the algorithm also builds a global shadow model that uses global-level information to help update the local shadow models more quickly. Foreground objects are modeled using nonparametric density estimation of spatial and color information. Finally, background, shadow, and foreground models are combined in a Markov random field energy function that can be efficiently optimized using graph cuts to perform foreground-shadow segmentation. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed

Confirmation 3 & 4 done
The document provides guidance on how to read and study the Bible effectively. It recommends praying before reading to ask God for understanding, setting aside regular time for Bible study to develop a habit, and meditating on what is read to understand how the passage applies personally. Key tips include paying attention to context, cross-references, and whether a passage should be taken literally or figuratively. The overall goal of Bible study is to strengthen faith in Jesus Christ.

Confirmation 7 & 8 done
This document provides a summary of key Christian concepts related to works and salvation. It discusses several Bible passages and argues that salvation is by God's grace through faith alone, not by works. The key points are:
1) Salvation is 100% dependent on God's grace and 0% on our good works. We are not justified by observing the law but by faith alone.
2) Good works do not earn salvation, which is a free gift from God. If we pursue salvation through works, we lose God's gift.
3) When we come to faith, the Holy Spirit changes our attitude so that we now hate sin and are eager to do God's will.
4) As Christians
Youth United Way Application
The document describes the United Way's Youth United Way program, which aims to develop leadership skills in local youth and involve them in community change efforts. As part of the program, juniors and seniors in high school can volunteer and serve as leaders, participating in meetings, fundraisers, and other initiatives. The deadline to apply for the 2010-2011 school year is May 7, 2010. Applicants must be entering their junior year with a GPA of at least 2.5 and demonstrate responsibility and motivation to make a difference in their community.

Confirmation 18 & 19 done
God wants me to examine myself to see if I believe that Jesus' body and blood are truly present in the bread and wine of communion. Some times we can examine ourselves before communion include:
- During private prayer and devotion before coming to church
- During the confession and absolution part of the service
- While singing hymns about communion during the distribution
- As I'm waiting in line to receive communion
Taking these opportunities to reflect on my faith in Christ's real presence and forgiveness can help me properly receive his gifts.
Enhancing Color Representation for the Color Vision Impaired (CVAVI 2008)
This document proposes a fast re-coloring algorithm to improve image accessibility for those with color vision deficiencies. It discusses how color vision impairment affects one's ability to distinguish colors and reviews previous methods for enhancing color representation. The proposed method remaps hue values in the HSV color space based on local image statistics and enhances color contrast through histogram equalization, allowing users to specify the degree of enhancement.
The future is a cloud hosted retail store
The document discusses the "Book as a Service" approach to retailing books in the future. Key aspects of this approach include:
1) Hosting books on the cloud to allow for multi-device synchronization, real-time learning and control, and mutable digital artifacts.
2) Enabling social reading features that break down walls between books, readers, and authors.
3) Aggregating content to serve as a hub for readers, publishers, and authors.
4) Providing API access to books hosted on the cloud.

Mobile programming allows developers to create custom applications for mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. There are three main types of mobile apps: native apps developed using platform-specific languages like Objective-C and Swift for iOS or Java for Android, progressive web apps built with web technologies, and hybrid apps that combine web technologies with native platform elements. Popular programming languages for hybrid apps include JavaScript frameworks like React Native, Xamarin which uses C#, and tools like Cordova that allow writing once and deploying to multiple platforms.

Digital natives: freedom and hackability in a mobile future
I'm an old digital native. I've learned to tinker with computers that encourage "hacking" like the Apple II. It shipped with a disassembler, electronic schematics, 8 expansion slots. You did not need a screwdriver to open the lid.
Compare this with today's smartphones, with a centralized AppStore on which one company has total control. This discourages tinkering.
How will the next generation of digital natives learn to tinker if all they have is closed ecosystems?
Mozilla is working on this with the Open Web through two separate initiatives:
* Webmaker.org is a set of tools and events to encourage ordinary people to have a look under the hood of technology.
* Firefox OS aims to ship HTML5-powered smartphones that can run Web applications like other smartphones run native apps.

Introduction to 24symbols (November 2012)
24symbols is a digital book subscription service available on the web and mobile apps. It uses a freemium business model where basic services are free with ads and premium subscriptions remove ads. Revenue comes from ads and subscriptions, with 70% of subscription revenue shared among publishers based on pages read of their books by users. The service has grown rapidly since launching in 2011 and has over 85,000 registered users and partnerships with over 85 publishers.
At Boekblad aan Zee
Justo Hidalgo presented a new approach called "Book as a Service" that treats books as an ongoing service rather than a single product. This approach provides a central hub for readers, publishers and authors, including social recommendations, author/publisher pages, and search engine optimization. It also introduces a freemium model where readers can access some content for free with ads or subscribe for ad-free premium access. Revenue is shared with publishers based on the number of pages read from their books. This new model aims to better connect all parties and support the reading experience.
24symbols Presentation at TOC New York, Feb 15th 2012
1. The document discusses new business models for content publishers, including paywalls, subscriptions, and freemium models.
2. It argues that content alone is not enough and that publishers need to offer additional value through features like social reading, cloud access, APIs, and mobile apps.
3. A freemium model is proposed where basic access to content is free with ads while premium subscriptions remove ads and enable additional features like offline access.

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
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.
