By joining forces across the defense supply chain, including government agencies, contractors, suppliers, and standards organizations, the procurement of counterfeit electronic parts for critical defense systems can be avoided. Section 818 of the NDAA seeks to prevent counterfeits through improved sourcing practices, supplier accreditation, training, traceability, inspection, and reporting. However, the law provides little guidance on achieving trusted supplier status or handling suspect counterfeit parts. Industry standards and a protected reporting process can help strengthen anti-counterfeiting efforts if properly implemented.
The document discusses how ERAI members and company administrators can use photographs from ERAI's High Risk & Suspect Counterfeit Parts Database to create training slideshows. Members can search the Nonconformance Photo Library by category, part number, or manufacturer to find images for their slideshows. Company administrators can also request custom standalone slideshows with an encoded link for online viewing. The slideshows can be used to train new employees or find reference photos of nonconforming parts.
1) Everyone who has benefited from the counterfeit and nonconforming parts database has done so because others chose to share reports of suspect devices.
2) There are two ways to report parts to the database - online or via email, and reports require part information, a description of issues, and supporting images.
3) Reporting future cases and sending all archived data helps make the database more useful, and reports can be anonymous without including company names unless chosen.

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.
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.

I want to begin today’s presentation by going back and looking at the study that was responsible for alerting much of the supply chain to the rapid rise in counterfeit activity. In June 2007 The US Department of the Navy, (NAVAIR) asked the Bureau of Industry and Security’s Office of Technology and Evaluation to conduct a defense industrial base assessment of counterfeit electronics. NAVAIR suspected an increasing number of counterfeit/defective parts were infiltrating the DoD supply chain and sought to verify and quantify their suspicions.
NAVAIR was correct in their assumption. While the findings of this study would not be published until 2010, numerous industry leaders had already been sounding alarm bells. In January 2002 ERAI began collecting and publishing counterfeit and nonconforming part dataIn January 2004 we went to China to see first hand the recycling and refurbishing activities that were fueling the supply of counterfeit parts. Later in 2004 the US Chamber of Commerce launched the Coalition Against Counterfeit and Piracy (CACP)In June 2006 SIA Launched the Anti-Counterfeiting Task ForceIn October 2006 the IDEA-STD-1010-A Acceptability of Electronic Components Distributed in the Open Market was released. The first and only standard that specifically addresses counterfeit identification. Industry leaders were convening at conferences such as ERAI’s Executive Conference, CTI’s Counterfeit Detection & Prevention SymposiumAnd discussions were already underway within SAE to create a Standard that would supplement ISO9000 and AS9120 that would specifically address counterfeit avoidance.
By the time the BIS study was initiated ERAI had already documented a counterfeit activity was increasing at a rate of ____% per month.
Semiconductor sales will see a slight up-tick in 2013. Based on ERAI’s current reported part data collected and projections we expect the number of reported incidents in 2013 to exceed 2012 but to come in slightly lower than 2011.
