Performance Analysis between H.323 and SIP over VoIPijtsrd
There are a number of protocols that may be employed in order to provide the Voice over IP VoIP communication services. In VoIP system, H.323 and Session Initiation Protocol SIP are the two major standards. Both of these signaling protocols provide mechanisms for multimedia teleconferencing services. Although the two protocols architecture is quite similar, they have many differences. This system presents Voice Video over IP communication and summarizes the differences and performance of two major VoIP protocols, H.323 and SIP according to the packet delay variation, jitter, packet loss, and Packet end to end delay. It is found that both of them are non interoperable, approaching each other, their focus and applicability is still different. In this paper, the system is designed and configured by Graphical Network Simulator GNS3 and analyzed performance by Opnet Modeler Simulation.

Security Lessons from Bletchley Park and EnigmaCraig Heath
Presented at DC4420 in London.
A brief review of how the Enigma machine works, how it was broken, and how security people keep making similar mistakes today.
In some ways, security is a cost or tax on application development that we would prefer not to pay, but on the other hand mobile platforms provide some unique opportunities for enhancing the the security and privacy of users in meaningful ways.
This presentation covers the "sticks" - what are the security hurdles that mobile application developers have to deal with - and then the "carrots" - what opportunities do we have to use mobile security to empower consumers and help them keep control of their personal information.
The phone industry's move to open source operating systems is an opportunity for concerned individuals to implement functionality that the phone manufacturers and network operators can't or won't do themselves and touch the lives of millions of people. This presentation covers specific opportunities for enhancing phone users' security and privacy, redressing the balance of power between individuals and faceless organisations.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
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.

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).

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.
