Mobile version of web site or native mobile application what to chooseKaterina Selezneva
This document discusses whether to create a mobile version of a website or a native mobile application. [1] A mobile website has pros like easy updating, lower costs and finding in searches but requires internet access. [2] Native apps have pros like performance, offline use and image but higher costs. [3] The best choice depends on business goals - a mobile site is best if updates are frequent and accessibility is key, while native apps excel for interactivity and catchy interfaces.

Implications of a Mobile Computing World for Academic Libraries and Their UsersRobin M. Ashford, MSLIS
2013 Snezek Library Leadership Institute - Westmont College, Santa Barbara, CA, USA - July 19, 2013 - Co-presented with GFU Dean of Libraries, Merrill Johnson.
The conversation is no longer about mobile web vs mobile app, Android vs iOS, but about how to leverage each device and each platform's individual nuances to create a multi-device, multi-platform product ecosystem.
What does it take to build a successful product and what does a product need in order to be “sticky”? This presentation addresses these questions through the learnings of the past four years of offering inclusion for everywhere, everyone,…and every device at Groupon.
Underlying this is understanding the key behaviors of users on each device. For instance, a mobile website might get a lot of first time users whereas a mobile app might tend to have a more loyal repeat-user base. This means on mobile web finding ways to minimize the effort, be it by eliminating unnecessary logins or distracting functionality, may play an important role.
This presentation will consider the key factors that ensure the success of the device/medium individually and within the larger ecosystem.

Key considerations when mapping your end user experienceEduserv
This document discusses how OpenAthens is working to improve access to online resources for organizations through a single redirector link structure. It notes that individual users need to authenticate themselves as subscribers to access publisher websites. OpenAthens' redirector checks a user's IP address and either directly sends them to the resource URL if on the organization's network, or constructs an OpenAthens authentication URL to log the user in if off the network. This provides a consistent linking method for libraries to use in their portals to seamlessly direct both on and off-site users to subscribed resources through a single URL format.

Nick Wallace, Government Analyst, Public Sector Ovum
Momentum for the adoption of cloud services continues to grow in the public sector as services mature and agencies experience in buying and using cloud services grows. As agencies steadily incorporate various cloud components into their environment, it is clear that public sector organisations are starting to realise the benefits of cloud. In fact if one where creating a “greenfield” service, “in the cloud” would be the default approach. However the reality is that most institutions are not in this position. Most have to manage a legacy environment that comprises aging technology, duplicate, inefficient and inconsistent business processes. Developing and implementing a staged migration to cloud will be pivotal when determining whether the “as-a-service” promise facilitates innovation or undermines organisational integrity

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.

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.

4. Demand for off-site access is growing! Almost all (97.6%, n = 545) respondents
agreed that demand for off-site access is growing. It was considered that the
most likely reason for this is that research is increasingly taking place on mobile
devices (84.3% of 459 respondents considered this a likely reason).
• The fact that research is increasingly taking place at home was also
considered by many to be a factor, with 76.5% of 459 respondents choosing
this option.
• Users are increasingly comfortable with digital formats and their
expectations are shaped by 24/7 digital availability.
• Users increasingly work or study in multiple locations, often without a central
“on-site” base; being “on-site” is not necessarily the norm, and can be an
inconvenience.
• Research and learning are increasingly taking place at home, or
“interstitially” – in the gaps between other activities, and often in public
places such as on trains or in cafés.
