Navigating relationships when no one knows what your job is
This document discusses strategies for digital community coordinators and social media managers to build trust and prove the value of their work when others do not fully understand their roles. It recommends asking questions to understand others' perspectives, meeting stakeholders where they are at with communication plans and project pitches, documenting all processes and reports, and showcasing work through regular updates, reports, and personal branding on social media and other channels. The goal is to shift from unclear or undefined practices to well-documented, transparent processes and measurable outcomes that demonstrate the impact of this type of work.

Introductory Talk - Workshop for e-Infrastructure trainers
The introductory talk given by the Software Sustainability Institute's Simon Hettrick at the 2013 Workshop for e-Infrastructure trainers event, which took place at the Hartree Centre, in Cheshire.
Software Sustainability Institute
The Software Sustainability Institute (SSI) provides services to help research groups sustain their software over the long term. It collaborates with groups in various fields to improve key software through advice, training, and partnerships. Case studies describe projects in fields like fusion energy, climate modeling, geospatial data, and computational chemistry. The SSI aims to promote best practices and change perceptions so software is recognized as a valuable long-term asset, not just for initial research. Sustaining software requires support for both technical aspects and community engagement over decades.
How breakouts work
The document provides instructions for conducting breakout sessions, which include choosing a Chair and Scribe in the first 5 minutes to lead discussion on lessons learned, problems and solutions, further work needed, and resources. In the last 10 minutes, the Scribe distills the group's notes using a template, and the group chooses a presenter to report the results to the larger group via email.
Engaging the software in research community
The document discusses the Software Sustainability Institute's community engagement efforts, including its Agents/Super Pals program and Fellows program. It recruits early-career and mid-career researchers to gather intelligence, run workshops, and provide feedback. The Fellows program has grown from 10 Agents in 2011 to 15 Fellows in 2013 across various research domains. The goals are to effectively serve the research community, maximize the Institute's impact, and promote awareness of software sustainability best practices.

Adopting Open Source Software for Longer-term Reuse
This document provides guidance on carefully selecting open source software for adoption and long-term reuse. It emphasizes the importance of evaluating several key factors, such as whether the software meets functional requirements both currently and for the future, has an active user and developer community, provides good documentation and support, remains up to date and interoperable with standards, and has a development roadmap that indicates ongoing support. The document advises asking the developer community questions and provides an example of thoroughly evaluating the Taverna workflow system based on these criteria.

Issue Tracking
Issue tracking allows organizations to manage changes and bugs in an ordered way. An issue can represent any query, occurrence, or task that may impact a project, such as a software bug, request for change, or action item from a meeting. When an issue is reported, it goes through a typical workflow of being assigned, accepted, worked on, and eventually closed or reopened. Popular open source bug trackers include Bugzilla, Trac, and JIRA, with Trac being a good example of a lightweight yet powerful option that allows cross-referencing with wikis and version control systems.
Supporting Software
The document discusses expanding support for software users by providing multiple avenues of help including email lists, FAQs, tutorials, a public issue tracker, and chat rooms. It emphasizes being honest about quality of service commitments like response times, supported platforms and issue scope, as well as types of support offered such as general help or tailored solutions. Alternative resources are suggested to help users help each other through a public archive and code drops while still ensuring individual requests are addressed.
Managing Code in Repositories
The document discusses code repositories and recommends hosting code online for open source projects. It describes how code repositories provide a safe place to store code, manage changes, and collaborate. It then discusses local versus internet repositories and recommends internet repositories for open source projects to avoid hosting burdens. Several popular online repositories are described, including SourceForge, Google Code, and GitHub.
Planning your project
Planning is essential for any project that produces software, even if it is research-oriented. Development plans should be detailed enough to provide guidance but not constrain the project. The plan should be useful to the project team and use tools that work best for the individuals involved. The plan should set regular milestones to release work in progress and review progress without locking in scope too early. A product-based approach to planning breaks work down into components that can be estimated, and the plan should include testing, integration, documentation, and release tasks.
Ssi maintainers
The document discusses enabling smooth transitions between software maintainers. It suggests that when inducting a new maintainer, an experienced maintainer should discuss the software's design, develop code together, and walk through the code. For self-guided learning, documentation like user docs, tests, design docs and commented source code can help navigate understanding. When inheriting a large codebase, inspecting the code, documenting assumptions and designs, and writing tests and user docs creates resources to help future maintainers. Well structured code with tests that demonstrate functionality form a minimal effective handover.
Introduction to the Software Sustainability Institute
Introduction to the Software Sustainability Institute and a record of the discussion held at the JISC RI Software Sustainability Workshop on the 12th May 2010.
Governance for Software
The document discusses several key aspects of project governance, ownership, exploitation, and funding for software projects, including:
1) Governance models can range from a single leader to a meritocratic model, and the level of control needs to balance the originator's vision with expanding contribution.
2) Ownership is usually defined by copyright, but gets complicated with many contributors; contribution agreements and a single custodian can help define ownership and accountability.
3) Exploitation considers how the software can move forward commercially or as open source, targeting current and potential new users as well as integrators and partners.
4) Funding can come from grants, donations, services, licensing, or spin-

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
