Spending quality time with your audience:
Times have changed. Consumers have a voice and are dictating where and when they want to be entertained. It is no longer sufficient to build a brand offline and drive response online. How can an industry that has built itself up around measuring user response now assist advertisers in effectively developing quality brand time in an ever increasing digital world where consumers have a voice? With a rise of new metrics focussing on the user’s environment against their position within the customer life cycle, Dean Donaldson will highlight how brands can now confidently begin to embrace, influence and measure the impact of branding online. We will look at practical examples of how brands are utilizing the latest advertising technology to maximize media dollars and illuminate intelligent insights into a consumers’ purchase intent.
Eclipse - an Innovation Network for the Vertical Industries
Open Source- for many the expression is a synonym for 'no cost' or 'easy to obtain'.
Only known to the insider is the fact that Open Source methods and licenses have become the basis of many industry collaboration efforts. Here Open Source is applied to jointly develop, maintain and distribute software relevant for the industry.
Due to its well-defined Intellectual Property Management and its Development Process is the Eclipse Project today well positioned to support industry initiatives in the collaborative value creation process. The commerce-friendly Eclipse Public License (EPL) makes it easy to capture value in commercial exploitation, providing the basis for a successful and sustainable eco system.
The talk will present the Eclipse Foundation and its processes. It will also present examples of industry collaborations. We will look at the Eclipse Mobile Working Group as well as the current status of the automotive E/E tools and the Prometheus initiative in the insurance industry as they develop.

Overlapping a creative strategy with actionable analytics:
With ever mounting pressure to justify advertising effectiveness against the bottom line, what have we learned from the plethora of data that digital advertising has brought to bear? Is there really a single point of measurement to focus upon or do we need to look deeper to discover what consumers today are doing and apply these learning’s into carefully constructed advertising strategies? By mapping advertising delivery against a consumer life-cycle, we can now begin to develop more targeted and relevant messages that will ensure a higher conversion rate and a greater ROI for your media outlay. Dean Donaldson will demystify the online metrics and show how to get closer to delivering those DR objectives, even revealing how to justify a campaign even with a 0% CTR!
Media in the fast lane:
Cross-channel. Mobile Communities. Augmented Reality. Ubiquitous computing. Amongst the buzz we are seeing evidence that all media is getting ready for a digital hyper-drive, fuelled by consumer desire for entertainment-on-demand and always-on-communication. Hidden within this emerging world is the utopian promise of addressable advertising – across all media. Yet set against a backdrop of big brands trending to bring elements of control in-house, Dean Donaldson, Director of Digital Experience at Eyeblaster asks ‘is media technology really set for where next or does reality reveal we are locked in the past?’ and challenges the notion of the purely digital agency
The evolution of media:
TV is powerful, but people learn through play. The digital landscape has changed and so have the ways of measuring it. Digital video is set to enhance the capability for brand recall within consumers at a much deeper level then media to date – and is challenging the very concept of mass-media. From BlueRay Live to digital signage the penetration of personal mobile media is about to change our concept of paper. It will offer far more value to advertisers than mere clicks. As the pioneer in rich media and the largest global distributor of video advertising, Dean Donaldson of Eyeblaster will show what we have learned over the last ten years, how brands are now penetrating web 2.0 and a glimpse into where digital media is going next.
Putting your brand in the palm of consumers:
The ability to reach consumers anywhere at any time has shifted the way advertisers execute campaigns and the way audiences consume media. Beyond the ability to just make calls, personalized mobile computers are tackling commerce and communication in ever increasingly innovative ways. Even between leaving your home and arriving at the office, you can interactive with billboards via your mobile phone with QR codes. With the ability of serving ads across mobile devices now available for agencies, advertisers are finally able to breakthrough existing mobile barriers. Dean Donaldson will examine the need to integrate mobile alongside other digital channels.

Ninety percent of all go-to-market strategies fail because most companies fail to translate business strategies into their daily business practices. Strategy is a promise made to the marketplace. It signals intent and thus creates customer expectations. Strategy activation is a new planning discipline that links strategic vision and marketplace implementation. It ensures the promise made to the marketplace is fulfilled across every customer touch point.
In this Aquent-sponsored on-demand webcast, you can learn:
• Why 90% of all business strategies fail in the marketplace
• How high performing organizations leverage the four key implementation success factors
• How to design a customer experience that matches expectations
• How the right culture and reward structures can build a workforce committed to implementing your promises
• How to design the necessary processes and select the right tools that will enable marketplace success
In a ubiquitous world:
As we enter the third wave of computing known a UbiComp, technology will shrink in size, increase in power and ultimately disappear into the background of our every day lives. A whole new infrastructure will see using miniature remotely powered wireless computers interfaced with sensors as opposed to keyboards.

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.

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:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

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.

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).
