This document presents an algorithm called Fractional Fourier Transform (FXT) to remove spectral leakage caused by non-coherent sampling of sinewaves. The algorithm works by "twisting" the time/frequency space to accommodate fractional periods. It was shown through simulations and ADC testing to automatically correct for frequency drift, maintain spectral resolution, and conserve SNR. The FXT algorithm allows using non-coherent oscillators for testing applications like ADC or waveform recorders.

Short-time homomorphic wavelet estimation UT Technology
Wavelet estimation plays an important role in many seismic processes like impedance inversion, amplitude versus offset (AVO) and full waveform inversion (FWI). Statistical methods of wavelet estimation away from well control are a desirable tool to support seismic signal processing. One of these methods based on Homomorphic analysis has long intrigued as a potentially elegant solution to the wavelet estimation problem. Yet a successful implementation has proven difficult. We propose here a method based short-time homomorphic analysis which includes elements of the classical cepstrum analysis and log spectral averaging. Our proposal increases the number of segments, thus reducing estimation variances. Results show good performance on realistic synthetic examples.

A Closed-Form Expression for Queuing Delay in Rayleigh Fading Channels Using ...Giacomo Verticale
Stochastic Network Calculus is a modern theory for studying the delay performance of a queuing system.
So far, this theory proved very effective in studying QoS in the wireline transmission media.
In fact, it provides an upper bound to the probability tail of the queuing delay and requires only the expression of an arrival curve, which models the traffic source, and of a service curve, which models the scheduling discipline.
In this paper, we propose a model of the wireless channel based on Stochastic Network Calculus and provide an analytical expression for the first two moments of the service curve of a wireless channel whose capacity varies over time according to a Rayleigh fading process, such as in the WiMAX and LTE systems.
We also provide an approximate closed-form expression for the probability tail of the queuing delay.
Finally, we compare our results to simulations in order to assess the validity of our approach.

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.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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:

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.

3. Problem Statement
• Discrete Fourier Transform is based on periodic signal and assumed
that the signal is repetitive outside the interval the DFT is performed
• If during that interval, the DFT is applied to a sine-wave with
fractional period, huge artifacts around that tone can be observed.
This is called leakage
