Digital Transformation: Embracing a Growth MindsetAshish Patel
Transformation is driving innovation in mindset, business processes and models along with the associated technology to support initiatives. The typical "we've always done it this way“ approach simply no longer cuts it in the increasingly competitive digital age. The best run companies are aware of this and leverage old and new technology to create innovative products and services, gain competitive advantage and enhance customer interaction, all while ultimately improving the bottom line. However, with a reported 80% of IT budgets being spent to maintain existing legacy systems - leaving little to no money for new technologies - it leaves IT and Line of Business executives with a conundrum of introducing new systems without disrupting existing, trusted legacies... so how do we make a digital transformation successful? Come learn from one in flight.

Bill Meyer (Virtual Science Center): Turning Kids on to STEM by Letting Them Discover How VR and AR Tricks Our Brain
How exactly does Virtual and Augmented Reality game human perception so things we know aren’t there seem to exist? Can simple and robust public learning experiences empower and delight people of all ages to experiment and discover the answers for themselves? The answer is yes. This talk will present examples and discuss how UX best practices can be applied to create effective inquiry-based learning experiences that unpack seemingly complex modern technologies. Through iterative design coupled with repeated visitor testing, we deconstructed the surprising perceptual science and technology behind VR and AR into 16 cool hands-on experiences that spark “aha” moments and minimize the need for wordy explanations. We keep concepts intuitive, playful, and fun to understand. Our traveling exhibition goal is to show visitors they're smarter than they suspect, inspire students to aim for STEM careers, and help teachers lead deeper NGSS and Common Core dives both in and out of the classroom. This 45 second video shows an example exhibit and part of our visitor testing process: https://youtu.be/Sgh0Sys57lY Without needing to learn the terms, visitors discover the secrets of how things like Motion Parallax, Stereo Vision, 3D Audio Spatialization, Outside-In, and Inside-Out Tracking work in concert to make virtual, augmented and mixed reality experiences possible.

Nick Klingensmith (Microsoft): Increasing Immersion with the MR Lighting ToolsAugmentedWorldExpo
The MR Lighting Tools is a Unity library and MRTK extension that estimates and replicates the current environment's lighting on additive displays to increase immersion in mixed reality. It works by using physically based rendering techniques to shade 3D objects based on the normal, texture, and estimated lighting captured from the environment's cameras, though cameras cannot fully capture how lighting appears to the human eye. The library is available from Microsoft and the developer hopes to expand it to include shadows and better account for room size to further improve immersion.

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.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

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).

Paraphrasing the Book of Matthew (chapter 13), some seed fell on STONY GROUND (no roots & too much in the spotlight), some feel amongst the WEEDS (and was choked) – but some fell on GOOD SOIL and returned back 30 / 60 / 100-fold the investment
COLUMN 1 – Click to move ahead
Roughly every 10 years (or so), since the 1970’s, we have had a major transformation in the technology industry
COLUMN 2 – Click to move ahead
Each transformation is typified by a “leap forward” in how we interact with technology & data and the way we interface and use it in our daily lives
In the 1970’s we went from large mainframes in clean rooms to desktop personal computers – we interacted with them through the key board and with key strokes
Later, in the 1980’s
Technology moved from the domain of the “tech professional” to the “knowledge worker”
In the 1980’s along came the GUI and allowing to interact with our data with the mouse and the pointer
Subsequently, the Internet / WWW allowed connectivity from what had largely been personal or corporate specific data to accessing the world’s data
Later in the 1990’s with the advent of the smart phone, touch (with the point, pinch, swipe and the like) became our primary interface with later still voice
Now, in this decade we are moving into the next transformation – Digital Reality
One more level closer to our data with the continued removal of the hardware and interfaces
Our means of interface will be the gesture, our emotions and our gaze
COLUMN 3 – Click to move ahead
At each transformation, mighty technology titans have been born – and some have been felled
There are 7 tech companies formed after 1970 which are worth more than $100 billion….
- Apple, Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Amazon, Oracle, Cisco
At its peak, DEC was the 2nd largest computer company (and the 2nd largest employer in Massachusetts)
WordPerfect and VisiCalc were two of the top 5 global software firms
At one point, Nokia & Blackberry (RIM) had over 60% market share between them! (Q1/Q2 2009)

Who knows who the winners & losers are going to be moving forward – however, many of the “winners” above are pouring billions into Digital Reality to ensure that they are not one of the “losers”

Gartner produces an annual “hype cycle” to show where the latest technologies are relative to being “commercially viable”
Innovation Trigger: A potential technology breakthrough kicks things off. Early proof-of-concept stories and media interest trigger significant publicity. Often no usable products exist and commercial viability is unproven.
2005-2009 – Started Tracking Augmented Reality
Peak of Inflated Expectations: Early publicity produces a number of success stories — often accompanied by scores of failures. Some companies take action; many do not.
2010-2012 – AR goes through this phase in the 2010-2012 period
Trough of Disillusionment: Interest wanes as experiments and implementations fail to deliver. Producers of the technology shake out or fail. Investments continue only if the surviving providers improve their products to the satisfaction of early adopters.
2013-2016 – AR kinda dropped off the radar and this is (somewhat) where we are today
However - VR is pulling out of this phase and into the “slope of enlightenment”
Slope of Enlightenment: More instances of how the technology can benefit the enterprise start to crystallize and become more widely understood. Second- and third-generation products appear from technology providers. More enterprises fund pilots; conservative companies remain cautious.
Plateau of Productivity: Mainstream adoption starts to take off. Criteria for assessing provider viability are more clearly defined. The technology's broad market applicability and relevance are clearly paying off.
Many technologies never make it out, but VR & AR have continuously moved along the hype curve and are making their way to the promised land of “commercial viability”
We need nourish the small ideas – spend time caring for them, feeding them, pruning back when necessary
