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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

5 Copy the entire contents of this folder into a new folder named, for example, “Adobe Reader 7.0.”
5. 2. Preparing for customizing Adobe Acrobat Elements 7.0 installers
Customizing the Adobe Acrobat Elements installer uses a slightly different process from customizing other Adobe
Acrobat installers. Acrobat Elements requires two installers:
• Adobe Reader 7.0.msi, which installs Adobe Reader and must be run first
• Elements.msi, which installs Adobe Acrobat Elements
Note: If Adobe Reader 7.0 is already installed on the user’s system, the Acrobat Elements installer will not reinstall
it.
To prepare for customizing the Acrobat Elements installer, you must decide which installers you want to customize:
Adobe Reader, Acrobat Elements, or both. You can customize either or both of the installers for these applications,
depending on whether you want to customize the way users view PDF files (Adobe Reader) or the way PDF files
are created (Acrobat Elements). Once you have customized the installers, you can then combine them into a single
installation package.
Caution: If you include Adobe Reader and Acrobat Elements in a single package, you must ensure that Adobe
Reader is installed before Acrobat Elements. Acrobat Elements can not be installed on any computer where an
Adobe Reader installation is not already present. For information, see “Initiating a project”.
6 Using the Tuner interface
Tuner has three views that you can use together or separately. The right pane always displays dialog boxes or Help
related to the item selected in the left pane.

Left pane Lists the items that you can select to display in the right pane. When Tuner is first started, the left pane
displays options for creating a new Microsoft transform (MST file) or selecting an existing transform. Once a
transform is created, you can show or hide the Check List and View Bar using the menu and toolbar options.
Right pane Displays the dialog box where you select the customization settings for the items listed in the left pane.
Check List Shows the steps to take to customize your installer.
View Bar Shows the main steps of the Check List.
Output window Shows a log of events as they occur during transform and package creation. You can hide the
Output window by using the View menu or clicking the Hide Docked Window button in the upper left corner.
7 Initiating a project
During a project, you select which Windows installer MSI file (also called a package) to use, and create a Microsoft
transform (MST file) to be customized. The transform can have the same name and reside in the same location as
the MSI file, or you can give it a different name and place it in another location. The transform must have the .mst
file name extension.
To initiate a project:
1 Choose Start > Programs > InstallShield Tuner 7.0 For Adobe Acrobat.
2 In the Open dialog box, select the installation folder of the Acrobat 7.0 product you want to customize. Select the
Index Wizard Editor file (.itw), and click Open.
3 The InstallShield Tuner 7.0 for Adobe Acrobat Welcome pane is displayed by default. You can specify which
pane you want displayed at startup under Open A Recent Transform.
To create a new transform:
1 Click Create A New Transform in the left pane.
2 In the Base Windows Installer Package box in the right pane, type the path to the package you want to customize,
or click Browse to locate the file.

3 If you are using multiple transforms for this project, use the Provide A List Of Additional Transforms To Be
Applied section. Click New and type the path, or click Browse to open the Select Additional Transforms dialog box.
Use the Up Arrow and Down Arrow buttons to arrange the transforms in the order in which they should be applied.
Note: If you choose to use multiple transforms, note that the order in which the transforms are applied is important.
For example, if Transform #1 creates a value for a property and Transform #2 modifies that value, applying
Transform #2 before Transform #1 may result in an error.
4 In the Windows Installer Transforms box, do one of the following:
• Accept the default name and location for the new project. The default uses the same location and name as the base
installer file, appended with an .mst extension.
• Click Browse to select the location you want to use. Name the file by using an .mst extension, and click Save.
5 Click Create. For more information, see “Customizing a project”.
6 Save the new transform file before exiting Tuner.
7. 1. Opening a transform
You can display a list of transforms (MST files) that you have created for the project by choosing Open A Recent
Transform. To display transforms that have been created by other users or reside on another computer, choose Open
An Existing Transform.
Note: You can only create transforms for installation packages. Do not attempt to create transforms for individual
application files. For information, see “Preparing packages for distribution”.
To open a recent transform:
1 Click Open A Recent Transform in the left pane.
2 Select a project.
3 (Optional) Click Properties to display details about the selected customization project, including file locations,
size, dates, and related transforms.
4 Select the options at the bottom of the pane to set Tuner behavior at startup.
5 Click Open.
To open an existing transform:
1 Click Open An Existing Transform in the left pane.
2 Type the name of the package in the Base Windows Installer Package box, or click Browse to locate the file.
3 Type the name of the transform (MST file), or click Browse to locate the file.
4 Click Open.
7. 2. Customizing the Acrobat Elements installer
Customizing the Adobe Acrobat Elements installer involves customizing one or both of the following two installers:
• Adobe Reader 7.0.msi, which installs Adobe Acrobat Reader, and must be run first
• Elements.msi, which installs Adobe Acrobat Elements
Note: You can only create transforms for installation packages. Do not attempt to create transforms for individual
application files. For information, see “Preparing packages for distribution”.

4 Customize the Acrobat Elements installer as needed. For more information, see “Initiating a project”.
5 Deploy both installers, either separately or in a single package, making sure that Adobe Reader is always installed
before Acrobat Elements.
8 Customizing a project
After you have created a project, the left pane displays the Check List. To customize a project, you work through
the steps of the Check List, save the new transform, and then create a package to prepare the transform for
deployment. When you click a Check List item, the right pane displays additional information about the item and
customization options. Some items also display Help in the lower portion of the pane, such as information on
choices and menu options.
8. 1. Organization
Organization specifies default properties and configures features in the Windows Installer package.
Installation Options Use this pane to configure the following information:
• Specify the organization name, user name, product serial number, and default installation path for the Adobe
application whose installer you are customizing.
Note: If you want to deploy the installer in silent mode, you must specify the user name and serial number.
• Specify whether to enable or disable certain behaviors of the installed application on users’ computers: whether
Adobe Acrobat will be the default PDF document viewer, whether to remove previous Adobe Acrobat versions,
whether to run the optimization (defragmentation) utility, and whether installer files will be cached on the local
hard disk.

• For multilanguage installers, specify whether you want users to choose the language they install. If you do not,
select the installation language from the list.
Features This information is identical to the Custom Install command for the Acrobat 7.0 product installer you are
customizing. The initial state for all the items listed is the same as the settings for a Typical installation.
8. 2. System configuration
System Configuration sets up the target systems with files and shortcuts required by your application.
Files and Folders Use this pane for adding or removing files or folders from the installation. Drag the item you want
to add from the source computer’s folder tree to the destination computer’s folders. To remove an item, right-click
the item, and select Remove.
Note: Removing a file only deletes the data table entry so that the item is not installed. The .cab file remains
unchanged. Adding files creates additional .cab files.
Registry You can use this pane to modify the ways that Adobe Acrobat products write information to the registries
of computers where they are installed.
Caution: Adobe strongly recommends that you do not make changes on the Registry pane unless you are knowl-
edgeable about editing and troubleshooting Microsoft Windows registry settings. Improper use of this feature can
result in the corruption of critical system files.
Shortcuts By default, Adobe shortcuts are added to the desktop and the Start menu. To remove these shortcuts,
select the appropriate option.
8. 3. Application configuration
Application Configuration predefines settings and user information, and can run other applications as part of your
Acrobat deployment.
Preferences Use this pane for modifying and locking certain settings for the Acrobat user interface so that they
cannot be changed once the application is installed. These settings are the same selections as those that are available
within Distiller and Acrobat. For more information on these settings, see Help for the Acrobat 7.0 products and
Distiller 7.0.
• Distiller: Both default and custom job options file names appear in the Adobe PDF Settings Files list. Add and
remove job options files until the list contains the files you want available after installation. The Select Default
Adobe PDF Settings File menu lets you select which file to use as the default after installation.
• Adobe PDF Printer: Specifies printer output and behavior, including the default PDF output folder, the default
level of security for each job, font and PostScript® printing options, viewing options, and replacing the PostScript
Printer Description (PPD) file.
• Security: Sets preferences for security and digital signatures. To set certain security preferences, you must have
Acrobat 7.0 and Tuner installed on the same machine. Before using this tab, you must open Acrobat 7.0 and set
the security options by selecting Edit > Preferences > Digital Signature. After setting the options, exit Acrobat.
Then, in Tuner, you can use the Set command to import your Acrobat 7.0 settings. You can also set up Identity
Search Directories and Trusted Identities in the same way by first making the changes in Acrobat under Advanced
> Manage Digital IDs. The Reset Settings command restores the values in Security Settings to the default, which
is None. In the Signature Details pane, you can modify and lock down the Reasons for Signing list, control
whether digital signatures are verified or not upon document open, and control whether users can create invisible
signatures.

• Policy Server: Lists the Adobe LifeCycle Policy Servers that users can access in your environment, and permits
or denies users’ control over this list.
• EULA and Online Features: Lets you suppress the display of the End User License Agreement (EULA) during
user-run setup of the Adobe Acrobat products whose installers you are customizing. You can also enable or
disable various online features (updates, toolbar message display, online registration, browser-based PDF display,
Digital Editions features, and PrintMe Internet Printing). When you disable any online feature, the feature is
displayed as unavailable (dimmed) in the user’s installed application.
• Comments and Forms: Designates a specific server location and settings for an online comments repository, and
lets you establish the level of control available to users for the form’s auto-complete feature.
• File Attachments: Lets you control whether Adobe Acrobat will automatically start other applications when
users open attachments from within a PDF file. You can control this behavior on a per-file extension basis. For
each file extension, you can specify whether to permit or prohibit opening attachments that have that extension,
or you can select Unspecified and specify the default action that Adobe Acrobat will take.
Launch Other Applications Lets you run executable and batch files, set command-line parameters, and specify the
Windows operating systems on which the installation will run. Items are started in the order listed, so it is important
to ensure that one action does not undo another (unless you specifically intend this behavior).
8. 4. Preparing packages for distribution
In the Package pane, you can choose one of the package options to create and distribute the customized installation.
There are three package options available. You can also use the Packaging Wizard. (See “Packaging Wizard”.)
Location To deploy your installation package over a network server or by using an FTP site, specify the network
path or FTP site here.
Note: To create a new folder when specifying the network location, you must type it manually. The folder will be
created during packaging.
Setup You can combine the transform and package in a single executable file named Setup.exe. This is the method
recommended for installing locally.
SMS Use to designate the version of Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS). Adobe has fully tested SMS
version 2003 with Service Pack 1 for use with Tuner.
To deploy a setup package with a third-party software deployment tool:
Instead of using the Setup option, it is recommended that you apply the transforms by using either Msiexec.exe or
Setup.exe and the transform command-line arguments. For example:
s e t u p . e x e / v “ T RA N S F OR MS = “%S O U R C E D I R %t r a n s f o r m 1 . m s t ; %S O U R C E DI R% tr ansf or m2.ms t””
where %SOURCEDIR% is the full path to the transform files.
msi exe c. exe / i “% PAC KA GE PAT H% Ac r oPr o .ms i”
T R A NS FO R M S=“ %S OU R C E D IR %tr an s fo r m 1. m s t ; %S O U R C E D I R % t r a n s f o r m 2 . m s t ”
Note: You may want to use double quotation marks if the path name or the transform file name includes a space.

8. 5. Additional tools
Server Location Lets you specify additional server locations for the Windows Installer package for Acrobat 7.0
products, including Acrobat Elements, Professional, and Standard. You may want to copy the installer to a server in
case a user needs to run a detect-and-repair process. Unless you have specified that installation files will be cached
on the local machine, Acrobat will look for it in the specified server location. Also, Acrobat 7.0 can cache the
installer locally on a user’s computer, enabling patching and repair processes to refer to the local cached version.
Additional server locations are not necessary for Adobe Reader 7.0, because the installer is cached on the local drive
at the following default location: C:Program FilesAdobeAcrobat 7.0Setup FilesRdryyyxxx, where xxx is the
three-letter language abbreviation (ENU = English, FRA = French, DEU = German, and JPN = Japanese) and yyy
is either BIG (ReaderBig) or MIN (ReaderMin).
Direct Editor Lets you edit the installation tables of the Adobe Acrobat application you are customizing.
Caution: Adobe strongly recommends that you do not use the Direct Editor feature unless you are knowledgeable
about editing and troubleshooting installer tables. Improper use of this feature can result in the corruption of critical
system files.
9 Packaging a project
Tuner collects the files you want to use for your package distribution over a network location or FTP server, creates
a Setup.exe file with command-line arguments, or configures distribution with Microsoft SMS. You can do this with
the Package Check List item, or with the Packaging Wizard.
Note: If the Package and Packaging Wizard menu options are dimmed, make sure that you saved the transform file.
These options are not available until the transform file is saved. To save the transform, select File > Save.
To create a package:
1 Set the options in the Package Check List item.
2 Choose Project > Package. Tuner automatically creates an installation package consisting of the items you
selected in the Check List. The Output window opens with the Package tab selected, and a log of the Package
creation process is displayed.
9. 1. Packaging Wizard
Once you have created your transform file, you can select the Packaging Wizard from the Project menu to complete
the creation of the package. The Packaging Wizard displays three separate dialog boxes that correlate to those in the
Package pane. You select the packaging options that you want and provide the necessary information, and the
Packaging Wizard completes the process.
9. 2. Test
Test runs the Install Wizard in Test mode, letting you test your custom installation without actually installing it.
To test your customized install:
1 Choose Project > Test.
2 The Output window opens and displays a log of the process, indicating success or failure and any pertinent error
messages.

9. 3. Run
Run installs the Windows Installer package and your custom transform on the computer where Tuner is installed.
To run your customized installation:
1 Choose Project > Run.
2 The Output window opens and displays a log of the process, indicating success or failure and any pertinent error
messages.
10 Silent installation
The installation package can run in silent mode with the /qn command-line argument. You can specify this
command line in the Package Setup pane in the Windows Installer Command Line Arguments box. The /qn
argument can also be set outside of Tuner by specifying /qn as your command-line argument when running
Msiexec.exe or by specifying /v /qn when running Setup.exe.
For either option, specify the serial number within the Installation Options pane (see “Organization”). A silent
installation will fail if the serial number has not been specified. (This step is not required when customizing the
Adobe Reader installer, because Adobe Reader does not require a serial number.)
Note: If you are running Setup.exe, you may want to add an additional “/s” argument to suppress the initial instal-
lation dialog box. For example:
setup.exe /s /v /qn

12 Troubleshooting tips
• Do not try to run an installation package (MSI file) from CD. Copy it to your hard disk first.
• After opening an Index Wizard Editor file (ITW) for a specific Acrobat product, you can only open packages and
transforms for that specific Acrobat product. If you want to work with packages or transforms for a different
product, you must open the ITW file for that product first.
• If you are running Msiexec.exe, make sure that you specify TRANSFORMS=“path to the transform file”. If you
are applying more than one transform, you must separate the transform file paths with semi-colons. For example:
m s i e x e c . e x e / i A c r ob a t i n s t a ll er pac k age .msi T RA N SFO RM S= “c : P r o g r a m F i l e s M y Tr a n s f o r m 1 . m s t ;
c :P rogra m F ile s My Tr ansform2.ms t”.
• If you are running Setup.exe and have selected the Setup.exe option under Package > Setup, the Package > Setup
option automatically captures the correct transform file information and writes it to the Setup.ini file. The package
does not capture the whole path to the transform and assumes you are running the installer locally.
