This document describes a use case for a linked data matching service for the renewable energy sector. It involves extracting key entities, facts, and relationships from online news and sources about renewable energy companies, people, technologies, and events. These entities and facts are then enriched by querying additional online sources to add more details and build relationships between the initial entities. The linked data is then analyzed to identify relationships and build a matching profile or recommendation by querying how the entities may be related based on the extracted and derived facts. This matching profile could then provide opportunities or recommendations by matching to existing data.

Big Data provides both challenges and opportunities for the official statistical community. The difficult issues of privacy, statistical reliability, and methodological transparency will need to be addressed in order to make full use of Big Data in the official statistical community. Improvements in statistical coverage at small geographies, new statistical measures, more timely data at perhaps lower costs are the potential opportunities. This talk will provides an overview of some of the research being done by the Census Bureau as it explores the use of “Big Data” for statistical agency purposes.
Speaker Bio: Cavan Capps is the U.S. Census Bureau’s Lead on Big Data processing. In that role he is focusing on new Big Data sources for use in official statistics, best practice private sector processing techniques and software/hardware configurations that may be used to improve statistical processes and products. Previously, Mr. Capps initiated, designed and managed a multi-enterprise, fully distributed, statistical network called the DataWeb. The 'DataWeb' is a data library of networked statistical databases from all federal statistical data domains, with sophisticated visualization, descriptive analytics, data integration and dashboard construction tools. The DataWeb is the source of official API to Census data products.
How Can Public Data Help Your Organization? An Introduction to DataCommons.orgTechSoup
Hosted by TechSoup on February 13, 2023.
https://events.techsoup.org/e/mykxzr/
Nonprofit organizations can use data to help communities and funders better understand their work. But how do you know which data to use? And where do you find it? And critically: once you have data to share, how can you use it to tell a story about your organization?
TechSoup is collaborating with DataCommons.org and Tech Impact’s Data Innovation Lab to help answer these questions. We know that organizing the data you need in a meaningful way can be difficult, especially if the data comes from many different places. In this webinar, you will learn how DataCommons.org helps to address this challenge, and how we are working together to make it as easy as possible for small organizations to use public data to share stories about their work and impact.

Many of the fines issued by the FCA over the past few years can be attributed to poor information management. The threats from external cyber-attack and malicious insiders are escalating, with your corporate and client information being the primary target of the cyber criminals. The legal requirement on UK businesses will evolve with the proposed EU data protection regulation likely to come into force next year. It is therefore critical to implement robust information risk management.

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).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

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.
