Spelling/Grammar/Punctuation 20%Interactive Session: Technology Will Robots Replace People in Manufacturing?
For the past four decades, robots have been incorporated into manufacturing assembly lines in Europe, Japan, and the United States. These industrial robots—with mechanical arms that can be programmed to weld, paint, and pick up and place objects with predictable regularity—have not taken over many tasks performed by humans. The biggest users of robotic technology have been automobile manufacturing plants, where robots do heavy lifting, welding, applying glue, and painting. People still do most of the final assembly of cars, especially when installing small parts or wiring that needs to be guided into place.
For most manufacturing work, it has been less expensive to use manual labor than it is to own, operate, and maintain a robotics system, given the tasks that robots can perform. But this is changing. Robots have become smaller, more mobile, more collaborative and more adaptable, and their uses are widening. New robot models can work alongside humans without endangering them and help assemble all types of objects, as large as aircraft engines and as small and delicate as smartphones. They can also sense whether parts are being assembled correctly.
Robots are becoming easier to operate. Companies no longer need a software engineer to write program code to get a robot to perform a task. With some of today’s robots, you can simply push a button, turn the robot’s arm, and move it through the operation you want it to perform. The robot learns by doing.
A Renault SA plant in Cleon, France, now uses robots made by Universal Robots AS of Denmark to drive screws into engines, especially those that go into places people find hard to access. The robots have reach of more than 50 inches and six rotating joints to do the work. They also verify that parts are properly fastened and check to make sure the correct part is being used. The Renault robots weigh only about 64 pounds each so they can easily be moved around to different locations as needed. They are also “collaborative,” designed to work in proximity to people. Using sonar, cameras, or other technologies, these robots can sense where people are and slow down or stop to avoid hurting them.
These new-style robots are moving into other industries as well. ABB Ltd of Switzerland and others have recently introduced robots to help assemble consumer-electronics items. ...

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:

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Boston dynamics.
1. Boston Dynamics is a leading robotics company that designs and manufactures advanced robots for
a variety of applications. Founded in 1992 by a group of engineers and scientists from the
Massachusetts Instituthttps://optidownloader.com/1324881e of Technology (MIT), the company
has been at the forefront of robotic technology for decades.
One of the most notable achievements of Boston Dynamics is their development of quadrupedal
robots, such as the BigDog and Spot. These robots are designed to navigate rugged terrain and
operate in a wide range of environments, from the battlefield to construction
sites.https://optidownloader.com/1324881
One of the key features of these quadrupedal robots is their ability to maintain balance and stability.
This is achieved through a combination of advanced sensors and control algorithms, which allow the
robots to adjust their movements in real-time to maintain their
balance.https://optidownloader.com/1324881
In addition to quadrupedal robots, Boston Dynamics has also developed bipedal robots, such as the
Atlas and Handle. These robots are designed to perform tasks that require two legs, such as
climbing stairs, lifting and carrying objects, and even performing parkour
maneuvershttps://optidownloader.com/1324881
.
One of the most impressive aspects of these bipedal robots is their ability to walk and run on rough
terrain. The robots are equipped with advanced sensors and control algorithms that allow them to
adjust their movements in real-time, allowing them to navigate obstacles and uneven terrain.
Another area where Boston Dynamics excels is in the field of autonomous robotics. The company
has developed a variety of autonomous robots that can navigate complex environments and perform
tasks without human intervention.https://optidownloader.com/1324881
2. One example of this is the company's robot, Spot, which is capable of autonomously navigating a
construction site and performing tasks such as measuring and surveying the site. This allows
construction companies to save time and money by reducing the need for human workers to
perform these tasks.https://optidownloader.com/1324881
In recent years, Boston Dynamics has also begun to focus on developing robots for more
consumer-oriented applications. One example is the company's robot dog, Spot, which has been
used in a variety of settings such as in the entertainment industry, research and education, and even
in homes as a pet-like companionhttps://optidownloader.com/1324881
.
Overall, Boston Dynamics has made significant contributions to the field of robotics, and the
company continues to push the boundaries of what is possible with robotic technology. From
quadrupedal robots that can navigate rugged terrain to bipedal robots that can walk and run on
rough terrain, the company has demonstrated that robots can be made to perform a wide variety of
tasks. And with the increasing focus on autonomhttps://optidownloader.com/1324881
However, it should be noted that despite the apparent benefits, there are also concerns with the
deployment of these robots in certain fields, such as the potential for job loss and lack of
accountability in case of accidents involving robots. These are important issues that should be
considered as the technology continues to advance and be adopted in various industries.
add more to blog include benefits in law enforcement
3. Another area where Boston Dynamics' robots have been making a significant impact is in law
enforcement. The use of robots in law enforcement has been growing in recent years, as they
provide a safe and efficient way to perform a variety of tasks that are too dangerous or difficult for
human officershttps://optidownloader.com/1324881.
One example of this is the use of robots in bomb disposal. Robots like the PackBot and the Talon,
developed by Boston Dynamics, are equipped with advanced sensors and cameras, which allow
them to navigate dangerous environments and locate and disarm explosive devices. This greatly
reduces the risk to human officers and allows for a more efficient and effective response to bomb
threats.https://optidownloader.com/1324881
Another application of robots in law enforcement is in search and rescue operations. Robots like the
BigDog and Spot, which are designed to navigate rough terrain, are ideal for searching for missing
persons in difficult to reach areas, such as mountains, dense forests, and building rubble. These
robots are equipped with cameras and other sensors that allow them to search for and locate
missing persons, even in low visibility conditionshttps://optidownloader.com/1324881
.
Additionally, robots can also be used in crowd control and surveillance. The robots have been used
to monitor large gatherings of people and to help identify potential security threats. The robots can
be equipped with cameras, microphones, and other sensors to collect and transmit real-time data to
officers on the ground. This allows officers to respond quickly and effectively to any potential
security threats, without putting themselves in harm's way.https://optidownloader.com/1324881
In conclusion, Boston Dynamics has been a leader in the field of robotics, developing advanced
robots that can perform a wide range of tasks, including in law enforcement. These robots provide a
safe and efficient way to perform dangerous or difficult tasks, and they have been proven to be
effective in bomb disposal, search and rescue, crowd control, and surveillance. As the technology
4. continues to evolve, it is likely that we will see even more applications for robots in law enforcement,
providing a new level of safety and efficiency for officers and
civilians.https://optidownloader.com/1324881
