During the Islamic Golden Age from the 8th to 13th centuries, the Islamic world was a center of scientific breakthroughs, innovations, and inventions. Key contributions included:
1. The development of algebra and geometry by Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi, from whose name the terms "algorithm" and "algebra" are derived.
2. Advancements in medicine including over 200 surgical instruments devised by Abu al-Qasim al-Zahrawi and the discovery of contagion through touch and air.
3. Progress in astronomy such as determining the diameter of Earth and diameters of other planets by Persian astronomer Al-Farghani, and precise calculations of the

Development of Speaking Fluency for Non-Native Arabic Students Using AudacityAhmed Aboulez
Development of Speaking Fluency for Non-Native Arabic Students Using Audacity
Ahmed Aboulez
Abstract
The new trend of Teaching Arabic for non-native speakers is to listen first to native Arabic speakers to experience the fluency of the language. This study seeks to develop and evaluate the speaking fluency of non-native Arabic students using Audacity as a shadowing technique. The tools of used in this study are (i) a list of main-tasks which composed of speaking Arabic fluency for non-native speakers, (ii) a checklist of performance of speaking Arabic fluency for non-native speakers, (iii) a guide of using Audacity to improve speaking fluency for non-native Arabic speakers, and (iv) an audio package of mp3 files of natural Arabic for native speakers. Thirty non-native Arabic students were trained for 4 weeks on using audacity to edit, record sound, how to deal with audio files, and how to use shadowing technique to improve speaking fluency for non-native Arabic students. Pre and post data on speaking performance based on Arabic fluency for non-native speakers that tested at the application level were collected from the students. Analysis indicated that there was significant difference at the 0.01 level on the post-application of the checklist of performance of speaking Arabic fluency for non-native speakers. This result shows the effectiveness of Audacity to develop listening and speaking skills fluently and smoothly for non-native speakers. Based on the results of this study, it is recommended to learn language with ears not with eyes similar to how a baby acquires language by listening to the parents. One method to motivate non-native Arabic students to learn and teachers to teach non-native Arabic students effectively is to use Audacity to encourage listening to improve the fluency of the Arabic language.
Keywords: Arabic speaking fluency, non-native Arabic speakers, shadowing, Audacity.

On April 12, 2016, CBO Deputy Director Robert Sunshine presented at the 8th Annual Meeting of OECD Parliamentary Budget Officials and Independent Fiscal Institutions.
The OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) defines fiscal transparency as the full disclosure of all relevant fiscal information in a timely and systematic manner. Each year, CBO produces numerous products that provide such information to the Congress, and through its website, to other interested parties and the general public. This presentation describes several of those products.

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.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
