The document discusses the potential for "smart radios" and open source software to improve tactical awareness and information sharing for military operations. It argues that current systems focus too much on hardware and security, and do not effectively share position location information or a common operational picture. Open source software integrated across a tactical data network could provide a shared awareness of who is doing what where and why, extending the range of operations through cyberspace. This would require modeling the operational architecture and moving beyond individual connectivity to true information sharing, drawing on open source's success with the World Wide Web.

YSANAOYOA Maj Roger Roland, USMC, Ret. “Open Source ... They gotta Cream for that..” IBID.

“ Operational Architecture” How we do what we do With or Without specialized tools

“ Except....” “ TRANSFORMATIONAL TOOLS ” For Example: The RADIO - We can do things farther away from each other - We can have a much larger “frontage” - Effects over larger areas -Perfected by German Tankers .... Blitz

“ Software Transformation” INTERNET == Better Radio WWW == INFORMATION EFFECTS - MORE, BROADER, NEW DIMENSIONS TRANSFORMATIONAL?

But ... What can “SMART” Radios Do? Don't Care .. We're Gonna Win Anyway ...

OK .. Maybe we care, But ... What does “SMART” Mean anyway? Increase TACTICAL AWARENESS Increase PRECISION Increase SPEED Increase SURVIVABILITY

Can't we already do this? ... Not Hardly POSITION LOCATION INFORMATION (PLI) “ Common Operational Picture (COP)”

Stupid Radios Crappy Software ACQUISITIONS FAILURE MODEL POSITION LOCATION INFORMATION (PLI) “ Common Operational Picture (COP)”

YSANAOYOA POSITION LOCATION INFORMATION (PLI) “ Common Operational Picture (COP)”

PLI is about INFORMATION SHARING Current Systems don't share on purpose - Stupid security - Vertical Integration - HARDWARE focus - Do it WRONG BETTER “ Can't Solve Problems with same thinking that caused them” - Albert E.

COMBAT RELEVANT PLI REQUIRES AWARENES OF THE OPERATIONAL ARCHITECTURE

COMBAT RELEVANT PLI REQUIRES OPEN SOFTWARE INTEGRATION

OK – LET'S FIX THIS Information is a SOFTWARE problem Software is NOT a radio Radio == Internet Software == WWW

What does a RADIO need to be “AWARE OF” To EXTEND range through CYBERSPACE ? Operational Architecture.

What is OPERATIONAL ARCHITECTURE ? WHO WHAT WHERE WHEN WHY

DATA MODEL FOR OPERATIONAL ARCHITECTURE: WHO == IDENTITY WHAT == RANK, SPECIALTY WHERE == LOCATION ON PLANET WHERE == LOCATION IN CYBERSPACE WHEN == NOW ! WHY == MAKE A DECISION

MARINE AIR GROUND TASK FORCE ( MAGTF ) MAGTF SHARED AWARENESS COMBAT RELEVANT PLI TACTICAL DATA NETWORK EXTENSION - REQUIRES MORE THAN CONNECTIVITY -

WHY OPEN SOURCE FOR TACTICAL COMPUTING? BLUE FORCE TRACKER = FAILURE MODEL WWW = SUCCESS MODEL WWW = SHARED DATA WWW = OPEN SOURCE OSS = SUCCESS MODEL

WHY OPEN SOURCE FOR TACTICAL COMPUTING? Share Data – Stop Fratricide Coalition Integration Continuous Improvement

WHY OPEN SOURCE FOR TACTICAL COMPUTING? Fix Stupid SEMPER FIDELIS !!

Burr Sutter

We can be brilliant developers, but we won’t succeed—and won’t lead our organizations to succeed—without a new perspective (if you will) and new assumptions about the components of the “technology ecosystem” that are fundamentally critical to our success. This includes the operators, QA team, DBAs, security folks, and even the pure business contingent—in most cases, each of these individuals and groups plays a critical role in the success of what we create and give birth to as developers. What we do in isolation might be genius, but if we insulate ourselves—especially with arrogance—from these colleagues, neither our code nor our organizations will realize their full potential, and most will fail. The bottom line is that our old ways are no longer viable, and as the elite within our industry, we will be the leaders and heroes who discard old assumptions and adopt a new perspective in this exciting journey to digital transformation—where the impossible can become reality.

Improving velocity through abstraction

VictorSzoltysek

This document discusses opportunities to improve developer velocity through increased abstraction levels. It begins by outlining challenges in keeping up with changing technologies and biases. Containerization, virtualization, and cloud platforms are presented as offering abstraction that improves velocity. Examples show how programming languages, frameworks, and infrastructure have progressively improved developer productivity over time. The key message is that businesses should focus on the highest possible abstraction level to maximize value, defaulting to programming languages like Java and platform as a service (PaaS) for most applications. Microservices are discussed but not recommended as a default approach due to increased complexity risks outweighing potential benefits for many use cases.

Beyond websites using drupal for digital signs

Acquia

Drupal 8 can power experiences beyond the traditional web. As more data rich APIs become available, Drupal can be used to accumulate data, identify a variety of devices in an Internet of Things network and then route data to the appropriate places. Given Drupal’s own rich content management capabilities, the CMS can still be utilized to enhance this datastream - making it that much more relevant based on location, language or any other metadata stored in it. In this presentation we will demonstrate how to use Drupal 8 to power a real-time signage system and discuss the techniques to build your own! What’s Covered: Responsive Techniques to support different display sizes. ADA rules around public signage. We’re not just talking WCAG/508 anymore! How to rebroadcast data from other sources. Data Delivery Methods: Push and Pull models. Sizing and Scaling your network of Signs. Fault tolerance on your Kiosk. Why even use Drupal to power a sign?

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. - These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

1. YSANAOYOA Maj Roger Roland, USMC, Ret. “Open Source ... They gotta Cream for that..” IBID.

2. “ Operational Architecture” How we do what we do With or Without specialized tools

3. “ Except....” “ TRANSFORMATIONAL TOOLS ” For Example: The RADIO - We can do things farther away from each other - We can have a much larger “frontage” - Effects over larger areas -Perfected by German Tankers .... Blitz

4. “ Software Transformation” INTERNET == Better Radio WWW == INFORMATION EFFECTS - MORE, BROADER, NEW DIMENSIONS TRANSFORMATIONAL?

5. But ... What can “SMART” Radios Do? Don't Care .. We're Gonna Win Anyway ...

6. OK .. Maybe we care, But ... What does “SMART” Mean anyway? Increase TACTICAL AWARENESS Increase PRECISION Increase SPEED Increase SURVIVABILITY

7. Can't we already do this? ... Not Hardly POSITION LOCATION INFORMATION (PLI) “ Common Operational Picture (COP)”

8. Stupid Radios Crappy Software ACQUISITIONS FAILURE MODEL POSITION LOCATION INFORMATION (PLI) “ Common Operational Picture (COP)”

9. YSANAOYOA POSITION LOCATION INFORMATION (PLI) “ Common Operational Picture (COP)”

10. PLI is about INFORMATION SHARING Current Systems don't share on purpose - Stupid security - Vertical Integration - HARDWARE focus - Do it WRONG BETTER “ Can't Solve Problems with same thinking that caused them” - Albert E.

11. COMBAT RELEVANT PLI REQUIRES AWARENES OF THE OPERATIONAL ARCHITECTURE

12. COMBAT RELEVANT PLI REQUIRES OPEN SOFTWARE INTEGRATION

13. OK – LET'S FIX THIS Information is a SOFTWARE problem Software is NOT a radio Radio == Internet Software == WWW

14. What does a RADIO need to be “AWARE OF” To EXTEND range through CYBERSPACE ? Operational Architecture.

15. What is OPERATIONAL ARCHITECTURE ? WHO WHAT WHERE WHEN WHY

16. DATA MODEL FOR OPERATIONAL ARCHITECTURE: WHO == IDENTITY WHAT == RANK, SPECIALTY WHERE == LOCATION ON PLANET WHERE == LOCATION IN CYBERSPACE WHEN == NOW ! WHY == MAKE A DECISION

17. MARINE AIR GROUND TASK FORCE ( MAGTF ) MAGTF SHARED AWARENESS COMBAT RELEVANT PLI TACTICAL DATA NETWORK EXTENSION - REQUIRES MORE THAN CONNECTIVITY -

18. WHY OPEN SOURCE FOR TACTICAL COMPUTING? BLUE FORCE TRACKER = FAILURE MODEL WWW = SUCCESS MODEL WWW = SHARED DATA WWW = OPEN SOURCE OSS = SUCCESS MODEL

19. WHY OPEN SOURCE FOR TACTICAL COMPUTING? Share Data – Stop Fratricide Coalition Integration Continuous Improvement

20. WHY OPEN SOURCE FOR TACTICAL COMPUTING? Fix Stupid SEMPER FIDELIS !!
