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.
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

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.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Attention Span?
According to Business Week, the typical U.S.
executive has an on-the-job attention span of
six minutes
According to USA Today, the average length
of an attention span of a man in America is
23 minutes
3. Relevant Question

approach
5. Importance of Technology in the
Courtroom:
Jurors’ retain six times as much information if
your presentation combines visual evidence with
oral presentation.
Technology use at trial has changed dramatically
over the last 15 years. Hardware and software
options are more numerous, more robust, less
expensive and easier to use than ever before.

9. Other Presentation Tools
Mix it up – the best presentations involve multi-media to vary the
presentation and keep the jury’s attention
Portable Video Presenters and Document Cameras (ELMO) – can be a
good back-up to display “surprise” documents that were not scanned for
trial
The Smart Board – interactive blackboard or flip chart – great for
witnesses who need to annotate a demonstrative exhibit or draw
diagrams for illustration purposes
Foam Core Boards – can be strategically placed in the courtroom for a
permanent visual effect
White Boards and Flip Charts
iPad with white board and handwriting application
10. Technology in the Courtroom
Outside Trial Technology Services – trial technicians will install and
calibrate equipment for optimal presentation to the jury
Equipment Rentals
Laptop Computers – state-of-the-art
LCD Projectors
ELMO Visual Presenters
Extra monitors for Judge, witness, jury
and counsel tables
Switchers – easily share presentation
equipment and associated costs with
opposing counsel
Audio Systems
Interactive White Boards
11. Technology in the Courtroom –
Practical Considerations
Several weeks before trial ask yourself the following questions:
What are the case-specific cost issues with using levels of technology?
Will the court allow me to use projectors, computers and any other
equipment for demonstrative purposes?
Will the court provide any of the equipment?
Are there monitors already built into the courtroom?
How is the courtroom set up?
Will the Court allow me to set up my equipment before trial?
Who will run the equipment at trial?
