The document provides guidance on building quality into software development through defect prevention rather than defect removal. It discusses how the best companies aim to freeze code and test within 10% of the release cycle, rather than leaving 30-50% for "hardening". An effective process matches tests to specifications and code, rather than introducing defects first. It also advocates optimizing throughput over utilization by limiting work, leveling the workload, and shortening deployment cycles.
Software prototyping is an important UX design skill that many people “just do” but effective prototyping requires crucial knowledge and practices that aren’t obvious. As a result, many prototyping efforts aren’t productive and fail to achieve their goals.
In this talk, Everett will explain prototyping and its goals, compare prototyping to sketching, and explore the different types of prototyping. He will then give the eight rules for effective prototyping and show why those rules are so important.
Everett will review several commonly available prototyping tools (including SketchFlow), give nine criteria for evaluating prototyping tools, and evaluate the tools based on the criteria. He will conclude by showing some examples effective and ineffective prototyping in practice.
If you or your team is prototyping now or considering prototyping in the future, this talk is for you!

Cosa è Lean UX?
User Centered Design x Lean Startup (Customer Development + approcci Lean & Agile).
Per la prima volta, i metodi User Centered Design hanno il dovuto slancio nel mondo degli affari.
Quando la comunità imprenditoriale comincia a misurare il valore dell'esperienza dell'utente, è il momento in cui essa investe su questo importante aspetto come un driver di valore, piuttosto che come un costo da minimizzare.
Quando la scienza del Lean Startup include lo "user centered design" come uno dei suoi attrattori principali, noi progettisti abbiamo una nuova opportunità di fare grandi cose.
In questo talk vorrei parlare dell'importanza del movimento Lean UX e di come questo possa condurre alla realizzazione di un team integrato che superi il semplice concetto di Product Owner, andando a definire un più vasto concetto di Product Ownership.
Oltre alla trattazione teorica dei concetti fondamentali, verranno forniti esempi tratti dalle mie molteplici esperienze di Coaching e Consulting in diversi contesti con aziende di medie e grandi dimensioni.

Stay Lean - Your Startup Toolkit (2013 short edition)Paul Walsh
CogniDox have curated a collection of links to over 450 business tools and organized them into a Mind-map for easy browsing. We'd like to share this with you, in the hope that you will find it as useful as we do.
Software Architects traditionally have been expected to be well versed in the technologies and software platforms on which their organization run, as well as the businessses they serve. Software Architect's need to balance both sides of this coin: business and technology.
Today traditional ways in which architects engage with development groups often conflict with Agile methods. This presentation explores best practices for architects working in an Agile world and ways in which Agile methods might benefit architects. Additionally it attempts to address some of the concerns that many architects express about Agile, and attempts to provide practical ideas as to how architects and agile development teams can become allies.

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).

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.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

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).
