Shivajee Rao Sharma, Chief Technology Officer of RPS Consulting Pvt. Ltd., presented on digital twins. Digital twins create a virtual representation of a physical object or system that can be used for simulation, prediction, and optimization. They allow analysis of real-time data from sensors to monitor systems and prevent issues before they occur. Digital twins are useful across various phases such as design, simulation, planning, building, operation, and maintenance. They improve processes in industries like manufacturing and pharma when combined with technologies like IoT, AI, and analytics.
APIs are a big deal and they are getting bigger. Center of success of large companies are the APIs that links computing devices to the underlying platforms that power each business and that ties companies together behind the scene.
Each enterprise has an inventory of API either private or public. Their importance and usage has soared as Web, mobile, cloud and machine-to-machine technologies have matured and are widely used.
Successful APIs need clear objectives that relate directly to business objectives and track closely to key performance indicators (KPIs) for the business at large.
Blockchain is chain of data which is encrypted which records Digital Transactions.
The Blockchain is an append-only transaction that is connected to the network to get decentralized ledger.

While the disciplines of business intelligence and discovery certainly overlap, there are key distinctions between the two, both in terms of design point and user interface. While traditionally it is believed different architectures are required to address these differing analytic needs, is that really the case? Or is discovery simply another key capability within an overall BI platform?
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from veteran Analyst John O'Brien of Radiant Advisors as he outlines best practices for enabling high-quality business intelligence and discovery, and the architectural capabilities to enable both. He'll be briefed by Brad Peters of Birst who will tout his company's cloud BI platform. In particular, Peters will demonstrate how the Birst architecture was especially designed for enterprise-caliber BI and argue for a more inclusive future BI architecture.

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.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

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.

35. • Based off historical data
• Statistically derived
• Seeks to establish statistical
relationships and correlations
between inputs and outputs
• can tackle problems with multiple
space and time scales
• Requires large datasets
---
• Can be inaccurate if not enough
data is present
• Can give theoretical outcomes

Process Twins - Flowsheet Modeling
Statistical/Empirical Models
• Based off physical phenomenon
• Derived with underlying physical,
chemical or biological phenomenon
understanding represented as
equations
• Seeks to establish a mechanistic
relationship between inputs and
outputs
• Requires small datasets
---
• Can be inaccurate if mechanisms
are unknown or assumptions are
not applicable
• Can be computationally expensive
• Difficult to accurately incorporate
information from multiple space
and time scales
