10 Things They Don't Teach You in College About EntrepreneurshipJason Evanish
Presentation I gave to the Northeastern University Entrepreneurship Club on February 14th, 2012.
This presentation covers what I and friends I spoke with said were the things they wished they'd learned in school as well as how to start learning those skills while in school.
We have all heard the notion that we are preparing our students for jobs that do not yet exist, and while we may not know what tomorrow holds, today’s technologies have opened up new pathways for success. Gifted students' characteristics make them uniquely suited not only to follow these paths but to create entirely new paths. Join us as we explore examples of new types of careers and the new tools that make them possible. Together we investigate the essential skills necessary for future success and how we might adjust our classrooms to better prepare students for the world of tomorrow.
Presented at Hofstra University on 3/9/12 in the Leo Guthart Cultural Center Theater. Topics discussed included the evolution of marketing, advertising, and how to best use social media for personal branding use.

Create Your Elevator Pitch - Pat Drew and Ivy ExecIvy Exec
Unless you can communicate your value quickly and in a compelling way, you are letting opportunities pass you by. Would you knowingly give up an opportunity for the perfect job or fantastic assignment? That is what you are doing if you do not have at your fingertips a well-practiced, very brief statement of who you are, what you are up to and what a UNIQUE contribution you make.
No matter how experienced and polished we are, most of us from time to time pass up opportunities to let others know who we are and what a unique contribution we make. We fail to get the conversation started which can lead to new positions and assignments.
In this webinar, you will actively participate and "log out" with a new statement of who you are and your value. In this session, you will learn:
- How to communicate your value in a compelling way in 20 seconds.
- Four key questions to answer, to engage anyone anywhere, anytime – in YOU!
- To craft, practice and perfect your own Elevator Pitch.
- How do to make yourself interesting, memorable and start the conversation, which will open doors for you.

For over twenty years, she has coached executives in the media, pharmaceutical companies, consumer product companies, financial and professional services, real estate, communications, not-for-profit organizations and academia.

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