Preservation Challenge Radioactive Waste Ian Upshall
This document discusses the challenges of long-term access to digital records for radioactive waste management. It notes that waste records need to be accessible for 50-1000+ years to meet societal, regulatory, and operational needs. Current records use a variety of media like paper, microform, removable digital storage, and material samples. Ensuring the preservation of digital records' provenance, readability, and usability over long periods of time is difficult due to changing technologies and standards. International cooperation is needed to develop standards and best practices for long-term digital records strategies that can transcend organizational changes.
Preservation And Reuse In High Energy Physics Salvatore Mele
The document discusses the challenges of preserving data from high-energy physics (HEP) experiments. It notes that HEP experiments produce huge amounts of data that require extensive storage, software, and computing resources to analyze. However, many past HEP facilities did not have long-term strategies for archiving and preserving their data. Developing methods for permanent preservation, reuse, and open access to HEP data presents significant technical and financial challenges but is important given the huge costs of generating the data.
Platter Colin Rosenthal
This document introduces PLATTER, a planning tool for digital repositories. It discusses what a digital repository is, the importance of trust for repositories, and the challenge of establishing standards for trust given the lack of widely accepted ones.

AI & Electronic WarfareMutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
