The document discusses the limits of information and communication technologies (ICT) such as computing power, data storage, and network bandwidth. It proposes that future networks will need to scale in both size and functionality through approaches like federation of multiple networks. Cloud computing is presented as a potential approach to tackle these limits by providing on-demand access to shared computing resources over a network in a scalable and elastic manner. However, cloud computing is still associated with many marketing hype and open questions remain regarding its impact and how it can integrate with existing technologies.
The document discusses how emerging technologies are enabling new approaches to modeling complex systems using large numbers of autonomous agents. It describes efforts to develop agent-based modeling frameworks that can leverage exascale supercomputers to simulate phenomena like microbial ecosystems, cybersecurity, and energy systems at an unprecedented scale. These models incorporate hybrid discrete-continuous methods and very high-resolution data to better understand dynamic social and natural processes.

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).
Speakers:

Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?Speck&Tech
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.

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.

63. Cloud hype 2 It’s stupidity. It’s worse than stupidity: it’s a marketing hype campaign. Somebody is saying this is inevitable — and whenever you hear somebody saying that, it’s very likely to be a set of businesses campaigning to make it true. Richard Stallman, quoted in The Guardian, September 29, 2008 The interesting thing about Cloud Computing is that we’ve redefined Cloud Computing to include everything that we already do. . . . I don’t understand what we would do differently in the light of Cloud Computing other than change the wording of some of our ads. Larry Ellison, quoted in the Wall Street Journal, September 26, 2008
65. Cloud hype 4 Illustration by David Simonds The Economist April 09 The Open Cloud Manifesto “ The industry needs an objective, straightforward conversation about how this new computing paradigm will impact organizations, how it can be used with existing technologies, and the potential pitfalls of proprietary technologies that can lead to lock-in and limited choice .” OpenCloudManifesto.org
70. Definitions 2 Cloud computing is an on-demand service offering a large pool of easily usable and accessible virtualized resources (such as hardware, development platforms and/or software services) in a pay-per-use model . Clouds are usually commercial and use proprietary interfaces. Service grids are systems that federate, share and coordinate distributed resources from different organizations which are not subject to centralized control , using standard, open, general-purpose protocols and interfaces to deliver non-trivial qualities of service. Service grids are used by Virtual Organisations , thematic groups of users crossing administrative and geographical boundaries.

77. Conclusion “ IT is a cost center, after all, not so dissimilar from janitorial and cafeteria services, both of which have long been outsourced at most enterprises. Security concerns won't necessarily prevent companies from wholesale outsourcing of data services: businesses have long outsourced payroll and customer data to trusted providers. Much will depend on the specific company, of course, but it's unlikely that smaller enterprises will resist the economic logic of utility computing. Bigger corporations will simply take longer to make the shift.” Nicholas Carr in The Big Switch: Rewiring the World, from Edison to Google

87. Grid Computing My preferred definition: Grid computing is distributed computing performed transparently across multiple administrative domains Peter Coveney (P.V.Coveney@ucl.ac.uk) Notes: Computing means any activity involving digital information -- no distinction between numeric/symbolic, or numeric/data/viz Transparency implies minimal complexity for users of the technology
Moore’s Law – Individual computers double in processing power every 18 monthsStorage Law – disk storage capacity doubles every 12 Months Gilder’s Law – Network bandwidth doubles every 9 months (but is harder to install)This exponential growth profoundly changes the landscape of Information technology(High-speed) access to networked information becomes the dominant feature of future computingFor large-scale images: secure remote access eventually becomes routine
1. Moore’s Law – Transistor Density doubles thus Individual computers double in processing power every 18 months2. This exponential growth profoundly changes the landscape of Information Technology
1. Moore’s Law implies 101.6 times growth in 10 years, 256 times in 12 years2. In the last 10 years, in particular, 10,000 times performance gain; this is mainly due to clever use of Parallel programming in some application area3. How to write and Ease of Use of Massively Parallel Computers are essential!
1. Higher transistor integration and higher frequency alone result too much heat for more performance.2. One needs a holistic approach to deal with heat problem3. Multicore with multithreading architecture helps to spread power dissipation over a greater area
Since the global e-Infrastructure is establishing quickly, we believe it is an excellent opportunity to take advantage of sharing and collaboration to bridge the gap between Asia and the world as well as creating new regional cooperation opportunities in Asia Pacific. ASGC as one of the earliest partner in Asia
ASGC is actually a center for e-Science, HEP is the largest and first (power) user of ASGC, and we also learnt a lot from HEP community for collaboration EUAsiaGrid: with 11 Asia partners & 4 European partners
Are we able to do e-Science ? sharing sometimes also means complement)
from site deployment, certification, services and to sustainable operationsOur participation to other EGEE activities, such as application support and development, dissemination and training will not be discussed here. Only the sustainable model for AP regional is raised here.
AARNet also has 2 x 10Gb to US
[Introduce the ASGCNet backbone first] first 10G network between Asia and Europe, 2.5G link to US and extend to NL as the Europe link backup. In Asia, we upgrade to have 2.5 G links to both JP and HK from 2008, and another 622Mb link to Singapore. We are keen to share all the network with APAN and TEIN and Asia partners.
What we are doing in Taiwan for EUAsiaGrid and the regional collaboration is to provide gLite infrastructure, and to enable e-Infrastructure services for users
There is also an important component of EGEE-II in Business Partners and Industry Take-up such as Industry Task Force and Industry Forum. It also organises EGEE Business Associates (EBA).
Prediction of earthquake is still not possible at this moment, through the simulation of wave propagation and impacts with assumed hypocenter, we could understand the possible threat to areas scatter from the epicenter. Then, the strategy for mitigation and protection would be verified accordingly. Here is exmaple of simulation of 3D amplification effects in Taipei basin by the wave-field propagation simulation with considering the complex geometry structure, extraordinary hazards could be identified even the epicenter is far from the target area.
1. For the un-precedented scale of collaboration, the High Energy Physics Community has the most experience.2. Strategically, the world-wide funding agencies use HEP community to build the 1st Global production Grid3. With the Hope that this will extend to other e-Science and HPC application areas by EGEE and OSG!
