Android Through The Ages
Android is an open-source operating system that is now used in 80% of devices worldwide. It was developed by Android Inc., which was later acquired by Google. There are nearly 500,000 apps available for Android phones and tablets, with roughly 20,000 new apps added each month.
Mobile
The document discusses several new mobile trends, including growth in contactless mobile payments using fingerprint scanning or tapping phones on terminals. It also covers new operating systems like iOS 9 and Android M that improve stability and usability. Other trends mentioned include search APIs that keep users in apps, Google Now providing contextual information, the Apple Watch gaining autonomy, and projects from Google like Brillo/Weave, Jacquard and Soli that connect devices through gestures.

Touching Isn't It? Consumer Response to Touch and Gesture Technology for IHS...
Ever since the iPhone was launched in 2007, consumers have increasingly become accustomed to touchscreen technology. Microsoft's touch centric Windows 8 release across tablets, laptops, phones and kitchen countertop computers was met with a mix of delight and dismay. Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft have rolled out gestures as the main way to play an increasing number of games on their platforms. Samsung's Galaxy S series phones allow hand waving gestures to silence calls, pause movies and more, but frustrate users with the lower battery life.
So how are we doing as an interface industry? As touch and gestures rollout to more and more devices and the enabling technology of controller chips and sensors improves, we should see any consumer discussion of touch fade from view as the use of the touchscreen becomes as natural as breathing. The reality is, as cost pressures increase, performance is dropping, and what should be a seamless user experience is becoming pitted with potholes of poor performance, manufacturing quality issues, and nonintuitive integration.
This presentation to the attendees of the IHS 2014 Touch, Gesture, Motion conference discussions the latest consumer experience research of Argus Insights. Covering market segments ranging from Wearables, Tablets, Laptops, Smartphones and more, Dr. Feland details what is working and what isn't with touch technologies.

Consumer Insight: New 5G Use Cases
The 5G network will be one of the keys in building an era of intelligent connectivity which is believed to transform businesses and support economic growth by deploying innovative new services.
From enterprises to consumers, the benefits of adopting a network with higher connectivity speed and lower latency will increase many things including efficiency for business operations and providing next-level experiences for consumers.
Despite the global pandemic, most operators in Asia and North America remain optimistic about deployments. As of Q4 2020, there are more than 130 mobile operators across 52 markets worldwide that have made the network accessible.
Not only are these expansions supported by policy makers and governments, the upgrade intent from consumers are also growing in most markets.

China is leading the 5G network adoption with reports mentioning that they’ve reached more than 200 million 5G users by first quarter of 2021. Following China, South Korea and Australia has been fast in adopting the new network as well. With this, Asia Pacific is predicted to keep on pioneering 5G. However, there are still barriers for adoption for 5G such as the technology being too expensive and that the consumers are still satisfied with the existing networks. The new 5G network also needs a specific phone to support the network therefore it adds an extra barrier to switch from one network generation to another.
Some survey takers also mention that the benefits of 5G is not as appealing to make them change networks. This could relate to the fact that people in Asia Pacific mostly use their mobile phone merely for mobile banking and video calling that does not necessarily require them to change to 5G network. Other than that, consumers in Asia Pacific uses mobile phone for entertainment which mostly is music streaming.
Despite these barriers to adopting the new 5G network, many organizations still predict that Asia Pacific is still going to lead the network adoption.

As to purchasing mobile phones or other handsets online, most consumers still prefer visiting physical stores despite the risks of going outside.
As the vaccines are rolling out in many countries, we should see improvements in terms of how the world tackles the pandemic. Parallel to that, the 2021 digital consumer trend will likely to continue evolving through time given the uncertainties we’re still facing in the future.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
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:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
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.
