The private-collective innovation model proposes incentives for individuals and firms to privately invest resources to create public goods innovations (von Hippel and von Krogh's paper in R&D Management, 2006). Public goods innovations are characterized by non-rivalry and non-exclusivity in consumption. To date, there is limited research available on private-collective innovation involving firms. This paper uses a case study design to empirically investigate and extend the private-collective innovation model. We examine the development of the Nokia Internet Tablet, that builds on both proprietary and open source software development, and that involves both Nokia developers and volunteers who are not employed by the company. We find that the incentives proposed by the private-collective innovation model made Nokia release and contribute to open source software for the Internet tablet but that the model also incurs “hidden costs.” We examine actions taken by Nokia to mitigate these costs throughout the development period. We provide empirical evidence for the private-collective innovation model and extend it by including costs and strategic actions in implementing the model. Implications for research and management practice are discussed.
Using Qt to Build Mobile Applications Featuring Social Networking and Monetiz...account inactive
The telecom, internet and media industry is converging and the value chain providing basic telecom services is now rapidly being challenged in the new emerging eco-system. New business models are breaking up the traditional value chain and each player takes on a new, or slightly different, role as the centre of their own value-web to secure a niche in the digital media space. This new emerging eco-system is a result of consumers changing their media and communications consumption and new players entering the arena. Today, social networking is one of the aspects especially important in device application development. However, to generate a valid business a new revenue source must be recognized such as advertising. The focus of Tieto’s presentation lies on Social TV concept which means that interactive TV services could be used on mobile devices and desktop. This also includes social networking during which end-users could exchange actual broadcasts or interact in the running program. This concept is especially interesting for network operator as they could efficiently merchandise advertising space by means of targeted advertising.

A new design reuse approach for voip implementation into fpsocs and asicsijsc
The aim of this paper is to present a new design reuse approach for automatic generation of Voice over Internet protocol (VOIP) hardware description and implementation into FPSOCs and ASICs. Our motivation behind this work is justified by the following arguments: first, VOIP based System on chip (SOC) implementation is an emerging research and development area, where innovative applications can be implemented. Second, these systems are very complex and due to time to market pressure, there is a need to built platforms that help the designer to explore with different architectural possibilities and choose the circuit that best correspond to the specifications. Third, we aim to develop in hardware, design, methods and tools that are used in software like the MATLAB tool for VOIP implementation. To achieve our goal, the proposed design approach is based on a modular design of the VOIP architecture. The originality of our approach is the application of the design for reuse (DFR) and the design with reuse (DWR) concepts. To validate the approach, a case study of a SOC based on the OR1K processor is studied. We demonstrate that the proposed SoC architecture is reconfigurable, scalable and the final RTL code can be reused for any FPSOC or ASIC technology. As an example, Performances measures, in the VIRTEX-5 FPGA device family, and ASIC 65nm technology are shown through this paper.

Data Colonialism and Digital Sustainability: Problems and Solutions to Curren...Matthias Stürmer
The global datasphere is growing from 60 Zettabytes today to 175 Zettabytes in 2025. Much of this data and software is privately controlled by American and Chinese corporations with enormous market power. Only the seven largest big tech companies such as Microsoft, Facebook, Alibaba or Tencent already have a market capitalization of over USD 8700 billion, which is almost three times India's GDP. This trend is called data colonialism of the cyber space. What problems arise from this and how can they be solved? The concept of digitale sustainability addresses this challenge by presenting a new pathway towards greater data sovereignty.

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).

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.
