1) The document discusses anticipation as the main principle of neural function that allows for skilled behaviors like driving to occur rapidly.
2) It proposes that anticipation develops through an organism-environment system where the nervous system organizes constituents to dynamically realize action results. During learning, anticipatory systems are formed for skilled sequences.
3) Teaching driving focuses on developing the trainee's anticipatory organization through integrated sensory and motor experiences in real and simulated traffic situations aimed at achieving the final result of safe driving.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...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).

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 streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
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!

1. Anticipation as a Main Principle of Neural
Function and Mastering of Driving
Timo Järvilehto, Veli-Matti Nurkkala, Kyösti Koskela, and Jonna Kalermo
Kajaani University of Applied Sciences, Kajaani, Finland
2. Many forms of human behavior happen with such a speed that
it is difficult to understand how neurons which are basically
quite slow information processors (as compared with a
computer, for example) could manage in carrying out the
presumed tasks
The problem: How is skilled driving possible?
Possible answer: anticipation!
- especially in teaching driving anticipation is stressed
3. But what does anticipation mean and how does
it develop?
4. Anticipation is usual in everyday life
• opening door
• catching a ball
• coming to a meeting
• approaching traffic lights
5. However, cognitive neuroscience has not been
much interested in anticipation
Reason: stimulus-processing –approach
• everything starts with stimulus presentation
• only events after the stimulus interesting (”information processing”)
Role of anticipation stressed sometimes, but only as
• “preparation” or waiting for the stimulus processing
makes sensory and motor processing more efficient
influences different parts of the stimulus-processing-response chain
or
• as an ”inner model” (representation of ”goal”) with which the incoming
information is compared
6. • if anticipation means that there is an inner model waiting for
”processing” of environmental events, how is fast action
possible?
- presumed sequence of events:
stimulusprocessing comparison with inner modelselection of
motor program realization of movement
• takes a lot of time, the action of the subject always lags the
environmental event
7. Systemic model of anticipation
Anticipation
• not a factor related to the expectation of the stimuli or modifying their
processing
• main principle of the organization of the nervous system
- determines the features of the environment that can be joined to
the process which leads to the results of behavior: “stimulus” is a
result of anticipation
- nervous system actively organized with all necessary bodily and
environmental constituents for action results
8. Development of anticipatory systems in mastering
driving
• anticipatory systems start to develop already during
phylogenesis
structure of the newborn organism anticipates the
features of the environment that can be used in the
maintenance of its life process
• every organism anticipates something about its environment
it has a structure into which only certain parts of the
environment may be fitted
9. Further anticipatory systems are created during learning and
training
leads to formation of potential neural systems that may be selected
directly by environmental events
10. Thus, anticipated result primes potential neural
systems directed towards the accomplishment of
the result
these systems may be selected directly by
environmental events during the execution of
the task
11. How is then anticipation realized by the
nervous system?
Systemic approach: the theory of the organism-environment
system
Skilled action is created in an organism-environment system
• consists of brain, body and all relevant environmental parts
• result of action as organizing principle
• anticipation is based on altenative possibilities for realization of result
Information processing is not the basic principle of nervous
functioning
• nervous system makes possible the dynamic organization of the organism-
environment system and the results of action
• neurons as living units getting organized in systems realizing results of
action
13. Is driving a motor or sensory process?
• driving is a process that involves always the whole organism-
environment system, leading to specific results of behavior
• there is nothing “motor” in the motor cortex, or “sensory” in
the sensory cortices.
‘motor’ and ‘sensory’ are anatomical, not functional
concepts
neurons do not carry out psychological operations
14. • perception of traffic signs is not a linear process proceeding
from the sign to the percept, but rather a circle involving both
sensory and motor organs (e.g. head and eye movements)
• perceptual process does not start with the stimulus, but the
stimulus is rather the end of this process
15. • jig-saw puzzle: stimulus is as little in a causal relation to the
percept as the last piece of the puzzle is to the constructed
picture
• e.g. , braking with the red traffic light is the result of
anticipatory organization preceding the appearance of the red
light
16. Teaching driving
• learning to master driving consists essentially of development
of anticipatory organization of the organism-environment
system for skilled sequences of results
sensory and motor components integrated
anticipatory systems created in real traffic
• such systems may be formed also in a simulated driving
situation
“mental” training, partial formation of neural systems
necessary in the real driving
17. Task of the teacher
• determination of the developmental possibilities of
the trainee
• finding out his personal style in cooperation with the
trainer
• creation of the cooperative organization in which the learning
resources of the trainee may be realized
18. Teaching driving is not a process of transmission
a process of organizing the pre-existing skills of the trainee in
a larger social organization: trainer (and all other relevant
people) and the trainee (norms, safety)
gets more differentiated and narrower with continuing
training
finally the trainee is able to master the skill also without
support of the associated people
19. Conclusions
• Development of mastering driving skill is deeply social
process directed towards creation of an integrative social
organization that makes anticipation and safe driving possible
• The brain also an important part , but
learning process not confined to the brain only
presupposes also many other necessary components
- body, environmental possibilities, teacher, other social
relations, norms, etc.
20. • In the training of driving it is not essential to try to carry out
the required movements quicker and quicker
one should concentrate on creating the anticipatory organization under
varying circumstances taking into account also social relations
as the constituents of the anticipatory organization are created in
relation to the final result to be achieved (i.e. safe driving), the training
should be be related to the whole act (e.g. driving home) as it will be
present under real conditions
• Use of a simulator is very useful for training action especially
in dangerous situations (accidents, bad weather conditions,
etc.)
21. These are the principles on which our experimental
study of driving is based
Our recent experimental attempts are next described
