Cloud Connect 2011 - Cisco and the Cloud: Within and Beyond the Data CenterCisco Service Provider
Presented by Simon Aspinall, Cisco Senior Director, SP Data Center and Mobility Solutions at Cloud Connect 2011
Cloud provides the appearance of unlimited resources and opens new possibilities for the delivery of services within the enterprise and from service providers to fixed and mobile users. Cisco's approach to the cloud opportunity includes helping to build out the data centers powering the cloud as well as applying capabilities in the network to enable intelligent connectivity within and beyond the data center. Join us to explore how to enable distinctive functionality across a secure, trusted, and ubiquitous platform.
Learn about what is happening across the industry as networks switch on IPv6 and strive to move beyond dual stack solutions to a pure end to end IPv6 architecture.
This presentation is based on the book "Building the Mobile Internet", the central theme being that the lack of a true session layer in the TCP/IP stack causes problems with mobility. The presentation addresses different ways of dealing with that problem on the various layers of the TCP/IP stack.
Talk by sateesh_addepalli_at_nasa_cmu_workshopsateeshadd
We present a new Pervasive IT Architecture as one of the first motivating manifestations of the Internet of Things. This new architecture consisting of a federated computing, storage and networking paradigm provides the foundation for billions of smart objects (IP based sensors, actuators, smart devices, etc) spanning home, industrial settings, vehicles, transportation systems to sense, predict and act on activities and events, in a timely and closed control-loop manner. We discuss the need for a new wireless architecture, including the role of ad-hoc & spontaneous networking, federated trusted anchors, smart object level security & mobility, smart middleware for peer-to-peer, peer-to-group and peer-to-cloud, and inter-cloud human/machine collaborative communications. We also address the importance of distributed big data analysis as a special focus of this new architecture, and its impact on the acceleration of development and adoption of immersive intent and contextual based geo-spatial decision spaces, where mashed-up isolated data sets from public, private and non-profit sources are combined with human natural collaborative interaction capabilities. Such emerging combination will produce higher situational awareness, context aware intent analysis of machines and human in a highly collaborative manner, and will provide context aware real-time/near-real-time response to events/activities. Finally, we discuss various IoT and Human Networks scenarios that will greatly benefit from such a platform, including smart & connected home, energy, cities and communities.

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:
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.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

How we consume information is rapidly changing The average user, in the course of their day spanning time across work and home ,typically Watches content from netflix , hulu or youtubeUses their smartphones just to check email or watch videosAttends a few meetings on TelepresenceAnd competes in a game on say a playstation with a friend across town over the internetIn the near future, 3D programming such as Avatar on 3DTV and the proliferation of tablet pc’s, e-book readers etc will be the normSo what does this mean?Firstly, the Global Annual IP Traffic will grow five fold from 122 EB to nearly 660 EB. That’s nearly 2/3rd of a ZettabyteLet’s put this in perspectiveIts equivalent to steaming 130,000 DVD’s across the net in just a second Reference - (Contact SrivatsanDesikan with questions)Media StreamingAssume 2 hrs/day of media player usageMonthly = 2 *30 * 60 * 60 * 750(per CLUE for Online Video Streaming) = 162 GBHDTV, 3DTVAssume 4 hrs/day of TV usageMonthly = 4 *30 * 60 * 60 * 30000(per CLUE for Next Gen MPEG 2 HD) = 12.96 TBSmart PhonesBusinessweek , ‘The Truth about Bandwidth’, Feb 15,2010Quoted as Superphones in the articleMonthly = 560 MBTablets/eBooksBusinessweek , ‘The Truth about Bandwidth’, Feb 15,2010Monthly = 1000 MBTelepresence per roomAssume 2 hrs/day of usage per userMonthly = 2 *22 * 60 * 60 * 13000(per CLUE for Online Video Streaming) = 2 TBOnline GamingAssume 2 hrs/day of usageMonthly = 2 *30 * 60 * 60 * 210(per CLUE for Online Video Streaming) = 45.36 GBTOTAL = 15.208 Tb/mth/user
Whats even more interesting is that The Traffic Mix will dramatically shift by 2013About 90 percent of consumer traffic will be video.Mobile traffic will see 6500% Growth – powered by 5.6 Billion devices worldwideDC to DC traffic driven by Cloud will emerge as a strong growth area growing 300% by 2013
What will it take to create these cities/communities… new visionary leadership & the creation of New Business Models.Imagine the huge opportunity for new services. Technology will be the key enabler.Only 2% of infrastructure spend – 2% of a trillion dollars is spent on technology – even an increase of 1%? To enable this we should together drive:Visionary leadership is key – finding people with similar mindsets, passion and vision for the future…that’s really key.Global open standards – this is what we do! We did it 25 years ago with the internet…bringing together different protocols and making them all work together. That’s not something just anyone can do.Smart regulation – we need leaders to step up….LEED certification….give benefits to people who implementPublic private partnerships – this has been key to our success so far.And a New ecosystem – working with developers, people like Schneider ElectricBut it takes all five of these factors…without one, it changes completely.
