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).

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.

Android Overview 19/12/12 8
9. Activities
Typically correspond to one UI screen
Run in the process of the .APK which installed them
But, they can:
Be faceless
Be in a floating window
Return a value
Android Overview 19/12/12 9
11. Fragments
Fragment represents a behavior or a portion of user interface in an Activity.
You can combine multiple fragments in a single activity to build a multi-pane
UI and reuse a fragment in multiple activities.
Android Overview 19/12/12 11
13. Intents
An intent is an abstract description of an operation to be performed.
Launch an activity
Explicit
Ex: Intent intent = new Intent(MyActivity.this, MyOtherActivity.class)
Implicit : Android selects the best
Ex: Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL, Uri.parse(“tel:
555-2368”));
startActivity()
Extra parameter Ex: intent.putExtra(name, property);
Android Overview 19/12/12
13
14. Intent Filter
Register Activities, Services, and Broadcast Receivers as
being capable of performing an action on a particular
kind of data.
Components that respond to broadcast ‘Intents’
Way to respond to external notification or alarms
Apps can invent and broadcast their own Intent
Android Overview 19/12/12
14
15. Services
Faceless components that run in the background
No GUI, higher priority than inactive Activities
Usage: responding to events, polling for data, updating
Content Providers. However, all in the main thread
E.g. music player, network download etc…
Intent service = new Intent(context,
WordService.class);
context.startService(service);
Android Overview 19/12/12
15
16. Using the Service
