The world of education is changing rapidly as the new emerging power of the ‘sharing economy’ is about open knowledge exchange across time and distance, particularly through mobile devices. Technology continues to alter how we engage with what we are learning, how we collaborate and interact, and how we manage the overwhelming amount of information available to us. Our postmodern learning tools are being fashioned to work the same way that social networks are evolving. This decentralization of the knowledge base, emergence of new and disruptive technologies, and expectations of a personalized user experience puts pressure on the association community if they are not preparing for the future.

This talk is part of the BNN Future of the Academy Speaker Series co-sponsored by NERCOMP, the National Institute for Technology in Liberal Education (NITLE), and the Boston Library Consortium (BLC).
Working Successfully with Emerging Technologies and InnovationsEDUCAUSE
Continuously innovating and transforming our current practices is critical to keep pace with teaching and learning as it evolves. While there is no shortage of candidate innovations, the process by which to discover them, to select them for pilots, and to consider full-scale implementation, can be challenging. How should incubator models be structured? What should be the goals of innovation within our technology portfolios? How should we select technologies to pilot? What processes or rubrics are effective in pilots? Resources: http://tinyurl.com/goodpilot
The MOOC in Review: Contributions to Teaching and LearningEDUCAUSE
Over the past year, the massive open online course (MOOC) has emerged as a significantly different course model. So, what we have learned about the MOOC and its potential to support learning? In this session I’ll review examples of how the MOOC is being utilized along with several related issues: implementation and deployment approaches; student success data; MOOC innovations; financial models; connections to traditional programs; and future developments.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
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.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
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.

58. Over-emphasis on efficiency and quick turnaround tends
to produce standard, in-the-box ideas
A “can’t-afford-to-fail” constraint can produce
unimaginative, short-term, even short-sighted solutions
Out-of-the-box thinking depends on a conducive, out-of-
the-ordinary work environment
59.
60. The health of the core is nurtured by innovative,
out-of-the-box thinking
Truly disruptive thinking is about new
audiences and new services
The value of the “disruptive 10%” is learning,
which can be imported back into the core
Evolutionary thinking is about either new
audiences or new services
63. Innovation should be about
gathering as much learning as
possible through the process of
launching an innovation.
64. Those involved in innovation should
have nearly complete freedom to
