The document discusses 3 presentations for the WICSA 2008 conference on updating the IEEE 1471 standard for architectural description. The first presentation discusses revising IEEE 1471 to align with other ISO standards and address comments from its adoption as ISO/IEC 42010. The second presentation discusses advancing the standard to better support architectural rationale, relations between views, and multiple systems of interest. The third presentation discusses initial work on defining view correspondences and viewpoint correspondence rules to formally describe relations between architectural views.

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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

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.

ballot, March 2006
- published as international standard, July
2007
4. Revision by ISO/IEC JTC1/SC7 WG 42
ISO & IEEE will jointly revise the standard

viewpoints, and viewpoint correspondence
rules; established to capture common
practice for architecture descriptions within
specific domains or user communities
New conformance points (“shalls”) for the
Standard
16. Architecture frameworks & Conformance
Conformance of a framework to Standard
- identifies stakeholders, concerns,
viewpoints, rules

19. WG 42 Interests
Is Review of Architectural Descriptions
ripe for standardization?
Can we consider this in on-going revision
of ISO 42010 (né IEEE 1471)?
Can we express it in a “process-neutral”
manner?
Is current conceptual model adequate to
capture evaluation?
20. WG 42 Work Program

suppliers and acquirers
“Improves World trade”
42000
23. Relations bet ween Views
IEEE 1471:2000 requires analysis and
recording of any inconsistencies between
views
Can we do better in ISO 42010 revision?
24. Current proposal (WD1)
Introduces new mechanism, view
correspondences (VC)
- records a relation between two
architectural views
- used to capture: a consistency relation,
a traceability relation, a constraint or
obligation of one view upon another
25. Current proposal: VC example
Consider two views of a system, S, a software component view,
SC(S), with software elements, e1, ... e6, and a hardware view,
HW(S), with hardware platforms, p1, ... p4
A view correspondence expressing which software elements execute on
which platforms might be:
ExecutesOn = { (e1, p1), (e1, p4), (e2, p2), (e2, p3), (e3, p3), (e4, p4), e6, p2) }
26. Current proposal: VCs & VCRs
A viewpoint correspondence rule (VCR)
expresses a contract between two
architectural viewpoints, realized by a VC
VCR either holds in its VC, or is violated
by the VC
Example: Every software element, ei, as
defined by SC(S), must execute on one or
more platforms, pj, as defined by HW(S)
28. Issues to consider
Have we got the right (all) use cases?
- Can we make a taxonomy of VCs and
use cases?
VCs are binary mathematical relations
- functions too restrictive
What is the language for expression of
VCRs?
Terminology (e.g., some folks don’t like
“correspondence”)
