presention about crypto currencies and bitcoins. A cryptocurrency (or crypto currency) is a digital asset designed to work as a medium of exchange that uses cryptography to secure its transactions, to control the creation of additional units, and to verify the transfer of assets.
It was my first presentation on cryptocurrency during my sophomore year in college. This presentation covers the basic understanding of cryptocurrency, working of cryptocurrency, bitcoin, blockchain and it's the difference between normal currency and cryptocurrency.

Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain - An opportunity for Startups and CompaniesMarco Vasapollo
Starting from the classic example of Bitcoin, we will find that there is much more to learn for those who want to enter the world of digital coins. In fact, Cryptovalues are just one way to exploit Blockchain, and its uses are almost infinite. For example, using Smart Contracts, we will find out how to launch an ICO for Fundraising.
How Cryptocurrencies Work was given by Mr Samrand Haji, a Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Enthusiast. He focused on how Crypto systems work and how they are decentralized to develop the security side of the Blockchain system. How to create a personal account for different e-currencies, how the mining process generates new coins and transactions, and the future of cryptocurrencies in the region was also discussed.
How Cryptocurrencies work. The workshop covers the followings:
• What is Cryptocurrency and blockchain?
• Different types of common Cryptocurrency
• How do mining and the whole process work?
• Investing in cryptocurrency
• Future of cryptocurrency in Kurdistan and Iraq
Cryptocurrency is a digital currency in which cryptography techniques are used to regulate the generation of units of currency and verify the transfer of funds.
- Cryptocurrency operates independent of any central authority or individual.
- The supply of money is regulated by software and the agreement of users of the system.
- Trust based on peer to peer consensus.
- Transactions are irreversible.

This class will shift will focus on the promise of smart contracts to provide cheap verification, reduce costs and automate many routine transactions. We will explain what a smart contract is (and what it is not), how it works and discuss where it can be implemented to the current economy. We will discuss the use of distributed applications built on the block chain and examine how Ethereum allows dApps to run. We will also look in depth at several dApps including Cryptokitties, Augur and Local Ethereum.
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.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).

2. Outline
• What is cryptocurrency?
• No Government Control
• Bitcoins
• How Will you Mine Crypto currency?
• Why use crypto currency?
• Transaction Process
• How a Bitcoin transaction works?
• Difference between Conventional and Crypto Currency.
• Why use crypto currency
• Different Crypto currencies
3. What is Crypto currency?
Crypto currencies are just lines of computer code that hold
monetary value. Those lines of code are created by electricity and
high-performance computers.
Crypto currency is also known as digital currency. Either way, it is a
form of digital public money that is created by mathematical
computations and policed by millions of computer users called
'miners'. Physically, there is nothing to hold.
4. No Government Control
• Governments have no control over the creation of crypto
currencies, which is what initially made them so popular.
• Most crypto currencies begin with a market cap in mind, which
means that their production will decrease over time thus, ideally,
making any particular coin more valuable in the future.
5. Bitcoins
• Bitcoin was the first cryptocoin currency ever invented. No one
knows exactly who created it – cryptocurrencies are designed for
maximum anonymity – but bitcoins first appeared in 2009 from a
developer supposedly named Satoshi Nakamoto.
6. How Will you Mine Crypto currency?
• A free private database called a coin wallet. This is a password-
protected container that stores your earnings and keeps a network-wide
ledger of transactions.
• A free mining software package.
• A membership in an online mining pool, which is a community of miners
who combine their computers to increase profitability and income
stability.
• Membership at an online currency exchange, where you can exchange
your virtual coins for conventional cash, and vice versa.
• A reliable full-time internet connection, ideally 2 megabits per second or
faster speed.
7. How Will you Mine Crypto currency?
• A hardware setup location in your basement or other cool and air-conditioned
space.
• A desktop or custom-built computer designed for mining. Yes, you may use your
current computer to start, but you won't be able to use the computer while the
miner is running. A separate dedicated computer is ideal.
• An ATI graphics processing unit (GPU) or a specialized processing device called a
mining ASIC chip. The cost will be anywhere from $90 used to $3000 new for
each GPU or ASIC chip. The GPU or ASIC will be the workhorse of providing the
accounting services and mining work.
• A house fan to blow cool air across your mining computer. Mining generates
substantial heat, and cooling the hardware is critical for your success.
• There are ongoing technology changes and new techniques for optimizing coin
mining results. The most successful coin miners spend hours every week
studying the best ways to adjust and improve their coin mining performance.
8. Transaction Process
• Every transactions ever happened recorded on one global ledger in
crypto currency.
• Sender initiate a bitcoin payment using "wallet" software. This and other
pending transactions are broadcast on the global bitcoin network.
• Once every ten minutes or so, miners specialized computers (or groups
of computers) on this network, collect a few hundred transactions and
combine them in a "block".
• In order to mine a block and validate the transaction, miners compete to
solve a difficult mathematical equation (a "hash function"). The miner
that solves the equation first further processes the block and broadcasts
this "proof-of-work" to the bitcoin network.
10. Difference between Conventional and Crypto
Currency

Type Real Physical
Intermediates Yes No
Portability Yes Yes (Highly Portable)
Durable Moderately Durable Highly Durable
Acceptance National Global(Works Anywhere in
the world)
Decentralized No (central Bank controls) Yes
11. Why use Crypto currency?
