But let's admit this: flexible electronics is not an emerging market -- it's an enabling technology. The market includes supply-chain logistics, medical devices, photovoltaics, lighting, structural health monitoring, consumer packaged goods, toys and games, etc. Each of these has different technical demands, distribution and support requirements, and adoption challenges.
So how do companies and organizations that have such enabling or emerging technologies, competencies, and/or customers identify and address their potential markets? Especially when balancing the need to choose the right markets to focus on, while remaining flexible (no pun intended!) enough to change as market conditions dictate?
While PARC has had a legacy of creating foundational research and evolving its competencies in this arena, we are now focused on "building an ecosystem" for flexible and printed electronics. In short, we're implementing -- not just describing -- how to fulfill the promise of the vision outlined last year.
Because simply having expertise and demonstrating feasibility alone do NOT a commercial reality make. We have to work together to "seize the white spaces" between technology opportunity, business opportunity, and market reality. And the dialogue between those that understand what's needed -- and those that understand what's possible -- will enable new opportunities neither of us could have come up with alone.

The document describes the SIPv6 Test Program run by the University of New Hampshire InterOperability Lab (UNH-IOL) to test Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) implementations over IPv6 networks. The UNH-IOL has developed a comprehensive test plan with over 150 test cases, an automated test tool based on 500 scripts, and a secure IPv6 test network to conduct interoperability testing between SIP implementations from different vendors. Vendors can test their implementations both remotely over a VPN or on-site at the UNH-IOL facilities.
This document discusses video coding and compression technologies. It provides an overview of lossy and lossless compression techniques and describes past, present and future video compression standards like H.261, MPEG-2, H.264 and H.265. While resolution capabilities continue to increase with technologies like 4K, the document argues that video compression is still needed due to limitations in bandwidth availability and the large sizes of uncompressed video.
The document discusses the EVS codec, which was selected by 3GPP as the standard for enhanced voice services in Release 12. EVS provides an improved voice and music experience over existing standards like AMR-WB by supporting wider bandwidths up to fullband. It enables higher quality services with the same capacity or increased capacity with the same quality. EVS underwent extensive testing and was standardized through an open process. It offers benefits to both consumers through superior audio quality and operators through improved network efficiency. Implementations are now available for deployments in VoLTE networks and beyond.

The SIPv6 program deliverables including the test plan, tool, documentation, and test network/environment are complete and available for members. The H.265 project is on hold pending specification completion. The WG is working to increase awareness of the freely available SIPv6 program and resources.
The document discusses UC SDN (Unified Communications Software-Defined Networking). It provides an overview of SDN controllers, APIs, and their use in data centers, Wi-Fi, campus and WAN networks to support UC applications. It notes that UC SDN can address complexity, improve efficiencies, visibility, control, automation and agility. The document also summarizes market forecasts for SDN and activities of the UC SDN AG, including use cases, specifications, liaison with ONF, conferences and marketing plans.
This document discusses trends in mobile video conferencing and collaboration. It notes that the workforce is increasingly mobile, with around 20% working remotely at least one day a week. Video usage is also growing rapidly, with over 63% of digital video now watched on mobile devices. The document argues that the user experience for mobile video conferencing needs to improve to match that of meeting room systems, with features like connectivity across multiple screens, personalized experiences, and complete control. Emerging technologies like augmented reality, natural user interfaces and voice recognition could enhance mobile video in the future.
SDN API & Unified Coomunications -
Enabling Visibility Across the Network from Service Provide to Integrator to End Users
Joseph Fuccillo
Chief Technology Officer, Nectar
jfuccillo@nectarcorp.com
The document discusses spatial conferencing, which brings telepresence capabilities to smartphones using regular headsets. Spatial conferencing uses techniques like spatial audio and head related transfer functions to make it sound like participants are located in the same physical room even when communicating remotely. It achieves this through high quality, low latency 14 kHz+ audio and positioning participants spatially through a multi-channel audio conferencing system. A demonstration showed promising results, with testers feeling like they were sitting in the same room. The document proposes further development and standardization of spatial conferencing technologies.
Optimizing Real Time Interactive Video Delivery from the CloudIMTC
This document discusses optimizing real-time interactive video delivery from the cloud. It outlines traditional problems with video delivery like bandwidth, loss and jitter. It then describes moving from private controlled networks to hosted solutions to current cloud-based deployments. The document proposes pushing functionality closer to endpoints using transparent relays near users to improve error resilience, bandwidth prediction and network control for better quality video delivery from the cloud.
This document discusses software defined networking (SDN) and its opportunities and use cases for unified communications (UC). SDN allows the separation of the control plane from the forwarding plane, enabling centralized control of network elements. This centralized control allows UC applications to explicitly identify traffic, request quality of service treatments, and prevent network overload through admission control. Specific UC SDN use cases discussed are automated quality of experience (QoE) through dynamic QoS marking, admission control, and dynamic traffic engineering to optimize media paths and class of service bandwidth.

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.
