This document provides an overview of global digital revenue trends in 2015. It finds that internet advertising spend is poised to surpass television and is being driven by growth in both desktop and especially mobile internet advertising. Mobile advertising is growing nine times faster than desktop and is expected to contribute substantially to overall advertising revenue growth between 2014 and 2017. The report also notes regional variations in advertising spend growth rates, with the fastest growing regions being Latin America, emerging Asia, and other developing markets.
The global media & entertainment (M&E) industry expenditure was estimated at USD 1.62 trillion in 2013, rising by 6.1 percent from 2012 levels. The global M&E market is highly fragmented, with Asia Pacific and North America dominating the industry. Latin America, Central and Eastern Europe and the Middle East are anticipated to develop rapidly.

The COVID-19 pandemic has upended the global media industry. Among other things it has shut down cinemas – causing entertainment giants to invest more heavily in streaming content; caused mass layoffs in media and advertising agencies; and accelerated the year-on-year decline in traditional newspapers and magazines.

Adobe Digital Economy Project -- September 2017Adobe
In the U.S., topline inflation is up across DPI categories for the first time in after five months of deflation (0.5% in the all-items index and 0.5% in the all-items less grocery index). Prices remain down year-over-year in the all-items index (-0.6%) and down for the all-items less grocery index (-2.2%).

On the retail side, tablets (2.8% MoM), apparel (1.1% MoM), and toys (1.1% MoM) showed the largest levels of inflation in September.
Deflation in September was concentrated in int’l flights (-4.0% MoM), televisions (-1.5% MoM), and appliances (-0.8%).
In grocery, inflation in September (0.4%) was driven by dairy products other than milk (other dairy products are showing 1.4% inflation MoM, ice cream at 0.9%), eggs (0.8%) and flour (0.7%).
Across the pond, consumers in the U.K. are facing continued price rises in grocery prices., where food prices are up 0.1% MoM in August and up 3.0% year-over-year for the twelve months ending in September.
Inflation is widespread across the U.S. in September with 42 states showing inflation in September (or near-zero positive inflation) with only 9 states showing deflation month-over-month. Inflation in general is driven by price increases in hotels and flights.

Quite a huge 2014 year we saw for online marketing overall, and social media in particular. Politics have, again, played a huge rule (sometimes unwantonly) in creating new behaviors. In Asia in particular:
Modi's election in India made him the second most followed politician on Facebook. With 27m fans, he's just behind Obama (The New York Times).
The Hong Kong Protests, and fear of Chinese censorship or network surveillance, propelled a whole series of new behaviors and apps, such as FireChat, which does not require access to the 3G or 4G networks (check this superb webdocumentary).
In Indonesia, the presidential election who made Jokowi the new leader of the 250m population country also showed how strong Twitter was there. Indonesia now makes more than 15% of ALL tweets globally.

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.

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.
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:

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.
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.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

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

Spotlight on the Local Media Consortium
In an effort to increase the “cost per thousand” (CPM)
pricing on digital advertising on behalf of premium
publishers and broadcasters, the Local Media Consor-
tium was created in the United States in 2013.
The LMC’s main activity is a digital display advertising
exchange powered by Google technology.
The consortium is a strategic partnership of more
than 1,000 U.S. newspapers and hundreds of broad-
cast outlets and serves as a model for other premium
publisher ad exchanges around the world. The scale
of the LMC allows publishers to compete with large ad
networks.
“Scale matters,” said
Rusty Coats, executive
director of the LMC. “Top
quality content brings an
attractive user base to
the online market. Scale
means more opportuni-
ties for national adver-
tisers to reach locally
with premium content.
Structure makes it
easier for advertisers to
buy. Improved opportu-
nities for publishers of
high-quality content to
earn additional reve-
nue.”
Coats also spoke at a Poynter Institute revenue inno-
vations study tour in March 2015, organised by World
Newsmedia Network.
The LMC’s missions are to leverage the collective
size and value of local media companies to create
networked costs savings, audience and advertising
product offerings and revenue opportunities, and
to provide solutions providers with an efficient and
effective entry point to local media companies. The
LMC’s focus has been leveraging its scale to forge new
partnerships, exploring new business development
opportunities and allowing members to work together
to innovate, Coats said.
The LMC continues to grow, currently serving more
than 4 billion monthly page views, 470 million monthly
unique visitors and 156 billion local ad impressions
per month.
About 40 percent of the ad exchange’s revenue comes
from more than 250 national and international brands,
including Kraft, Honda, American Express, ATT,
Disney and Amazon for an average CPM of US$2.60.
The remaining 60 percent of the revenue comes from
lower CPM advertising. However, CPM rates have risen
40 percent since April 2014, he said.
Looking to the future, an estimated 4 billion ad impres-
sions per month multiplied by an average of $1.25
CPM equals about $5 million per month in new money
in the premium publishers’ ecosystem, Coats said.
The partnerships have been forged with a variety of
powerful players, including Yahoo!, Google, HomeFind-
er and Monster, among others, Coats said. The most
powerful partnership is an advertising exchange,
powered by Google. In an effort to drive profitability
and sustainability for participating high-quality content
companies, Google has provided the network with
technologies to power the network, including Double-
click for Publishers and the Ad Exchange. Inventory for
buyers includes desktop, video and mobile opportuni-
ties.
By creating this exchange, LMC helps advertisers
locate quality inventory and buy it at scale, he said.
The automatic delivery mechanism of programmatic
advertising has enabled the quick and efficient deliv-
ery of higher CPM advertising across the national and
regional networks formed by LMC.
The network has ensured the delivery of higher CPM
advertising because the ad inventory is clearly defined
as premium inventory; the inventory is not simultane-
ously sold elsewhere, which prevents national adver-
tisers from shopping around for lower rates, which
reduces the risk of having to discount inventory to
offload it.
The LMC’s philosophy on programmatic advertising
drives the ad exchange’s strategy: “Programmatic is a
means of automating selling that should be handled
strategically to maximise yield and profit,” Coats said.
“Many LMC publishers are moving toward putting all
of their inventory in the exchange and forcing in-house
sales to truly compete with the market.”
The members agree to a five-year contract, each mem-
ber organisation gets one vote regardless of its size,
and the dues are based on the share of total member-
ship, Coats said.

GLOBAL DIGITAL REVENUE TRENDS 2015
In the United States alone, branded content revenue is
expected to surge at a 21 percent compounded annual
growth rate from 2014 to 2019, from US$10 billion to
$25 billion, according to Business Insider.
Native advertising is of interest to consumers if
it is credible, attractively laid out, funny and/or
thought-provoking, according to a recent Boston
Consulting Group survey of consumers from the United
States, the United Kingdom, Germany and Italy.
Neal Zuckerman, managing director of Boston Consult-
ing Group, presented findings of the 2015 study at the
INMA World Congress in May 2015. Among the overall
findings were:
• The vast majority of consumers have encountered,
enjoyed and sought out branded content
• Branded content positively impacts favourability and
purchase return on investment, but magnifies nega-
tive sentiment among those who dislike the brand
• Consumers are giving media properties permission
to play in the branded content arena
• Tone and style are critical elements to successful
branded content — the same as journalistic content
According to Michael Zimbalist, senior vice president
for advertising and innovation at The New York Times,
advertisers want as much engagement on their adver-
tising content as on The Times’ editorial content.
The Times built an entire advertising segment around
the winning solution of engagement called Brand
Studio, in which brands will publish articles that are
labeled “paid post.” The most popular paid post was
sponsored by Netflix for the popular series “Orange
is the New Black” called “Women Inmates: Why the
Male Model Doesn’t Work.” The post is about the need
for policies and procedures as the number of women
inmates soar. The post placed in the top 1,000 Times
articles during a Chartbeat study on the most engag-
ing Times articles.
The Netflix native content on The Times garnered a lot
of buzz in the media. MSNBC’s Sam Petulla tweeted,
“The New York Times just published what is probably
the best piece of sponsored content you will find.” Ad-
vertising Age declared, “[This is] the piece that turned
branded content mainstream.”
Another popular native advertising article in The Times
was sponsored by The Weinstein Company, a U.S.
filmmaker that backed the award-winning “Imitation
Game.” The post was about the subject of the film,
British computer pioneer Alan Turing.
Cannes Lions’ Phil Thomas, illustrating the rise of
native advertising, said branded content at Cannes
Lions is the biggest, fastest growing area of the whole
festival. Last year entries increased by 43 percent. (An
interesting side note: while print is shrinking in con-
trast to branded content, it remains one of the festi-
val’s biggest sections with 9,000 entries, according to
FIPP’s recap of the Digital Innovation Summit in Berlin
in March 2015).
The World Newsmedia Network in March 2015 assem-
bled a panel of publishers who have successful native
advertising businesses in New York. They include
online magazine Quartz; online and print magazine
Forbes; and content marketing solutions company
Newscred.
Quartz, on QZ.com, creates native advertising that
resembles the editorial content it produces, but clearly
labels the native advertising as branded content, and
may have content mentioning the brand that has paid
for the content.
Forbes is a pioneer in the area of branded content,
and has evolved the way it publishes native advertis-
ing.
“We create real-time, two-way conversations. We found
a way to include more voices from staff writers, con-
tent experts and from our audience and our marketing
partners. We launched Brand Voice, about storytelling
and thought leadership, what makes it native is that
our partners use our same tools, clearly labeled, also
has to be relevant content,” said Mike Monroe, Forbes
director of marketing.
Native advertising represents 30 percent of Forbes’
advertising revenues.
In the early days, Forbes editors were skeptical of
native advertising, as Forbes was one of the first pub-
lishers to test the waters. What they learned was that
if the content is not of high quality, it won’t become
popular.
“If it’s not high quality, it won’t trend. Readers are
looking for thought leadership, not a commercial play,”
Monroe said.
As a vendor, Newscred offers content marketing as
a solution for advertisers and publishers. Newscred
offers planning, sourcing, publishing and measuring
content performance.
Quartz’s Content Studio creates content marketing on
behalf of advertisers. After the campaign is done, the
story lives on in perpetuity, said Marissa Hayes Aydlett,
