This document specifies the Video File Format used by Adobe Flash Player version 10. It describes the FLV and F4V file formats, including file structure, metadata containers, and supported audio and video codecs. New features in version 10 include support for Speex audio compression and XMP metadata. The F4V format is based on MP4 file specifications and supports metadata for images, text formatting, and hyperlinks.
This document provides an overview of common file formats including BMP, JPEG, PNG, TIF, PSD, PDF, GIF and CGM. It outlines the positives and negatives of each format. BMPs store high quality raster images but have large file sizes. JPEGs are widely supported but can lose quality with compression. PNGs compress without quality loss but don't support animation. TIFs are good for scanning but large sizes slow loading. PSDs allow layers but are large and proprietary. PDFs are small and universal but static. GIFs are ideal for websites due to support and animation but have poor detail. CGM uses both raster and vector graphics and has cross-platform support but requires conversion filters
The document discusses different file formats for graphics. It describes EPS as an encapsulated PostScript file format that can contain vector or bitmap images. EPS is considered the most portable format. The document also outlines common file formats for web pages (GIF and JPEG) and printed documents (TIFF and EPS). It notes that GIF is best for images with solid colors, JPEG for photos, TIFF supports bitmaps, and EPS can contain vector and bitmap graphics.
The document describes the file format of MT940 statements used to import account balances and transactions into ERP systems. MT940 statements are delivered as text files with an STA extension following the SWIFT MT940 specification. The file format includes a header with an opening balance, transaction blocks with value dates and amounts, and a footer with closing and available balances. Fields are structured with mandatory and optional subfields to automatically post transactions.
Digital media comes in different file formats for images, audio, and video depending on the device and how the file will be used. Common file formats include JPEG, GIF, PNG for images and MP3, WAV, and AAC for audio. Video file formats include AVI, MP4, and MOV. File formats can vary in properties like file size, quality, resolution, and whether they are compressed or uncompressed. Compression reduces file sizes but also lowers quality, while uncompressed files are highest quality but largest in size. The appropriate file format depends on balancing quality needs with file size and device compatibility.
This document discusses different types of multimedia data and file formats. It describes text, graphics, images, audio, video, and animation. For images, it discusses bits per pixel and compression formats like JPEG, JPG, and BMP. It explains how audio is digitized and compressed, with lossy and lossless algorithms. Video involves sampling frames at rates like 30 fps and uses compression. Animation shows series of pictures displayed rapidly. Common file formats are described like RTF, TIFF, MIDI, JPEG, and MPEG, which is used for video compression standards.

This document discusses the growth of ebooks and the future of books in a digital format. Some key points include:
- There are over 10 million ebook titles currently available in the United States from various sources.
- Ebooks are significantly cheaper than their physical print counterparts, with ebooks costing around $6.66 on average compared to $100-180 for hardcover books.
- Ebooks offer advantages over print such as availability in multiple formats, integration of rich media, social connectivity features, and quicker publication timelines.
- The future of books is pointed towards more interactive digital formats that incorporate gamification and pricing models that are fair to both consumers and publishers.

The Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG), also known as the Taxonomic Databases Working Group, is a non-profit scientific and educational association that is affiliated with the International Union of Biological Sciences. TDWG was formed to establish international collaboration among biological database projects and related services. Promoting the wider and more effective dissemination of information about the World's heritage of biological organisms for the benefit of the world at large, TDWG focuses on the development of standards for the exchange of biological/biodiversity data. TDWG promotes the use of standards through the most appropriate and effective means and acts as a forum for discussion through holding meetings and through publications, especially the recently launched open access journal, Biodiversity Information Standards and Science. This presentation will focus on areas of possible collaboration by the larger networked information community around bioinformatic standards, areas where TDWG collaborates with other biodiversity organizations such as the Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL), the Encyclopedia of Life (EOL), and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF).

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.

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.
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.
In his public lecture, Christian Timmerer provides insights into the fascinating history of video streaming, starting from its humble beginnings before YouTube to the groundbreaking technologies that now dominate platforms like Netflix and ORF ON. Timmerer also presents provocative contributions of his own that have significantly influenced the industry. He concludes by looking at future challenges and invites the audience to join in a discussion.
