Automatic control systems related to safety in autonomous carsMRUGENDRASHILVANT
The document discusses various automatic control systems and safety features related to autonomous vehicles. It describes challenges in developing fully autonomous vehicles, including how to program vehicles to handle unexpected situations. It also discusses specific technologies used in autonomous vehicles like lidar, convolutional neural networks, and AdaBoosting. Finally, it provides an overview of vehicle-to-vehicle communication technology, describing the basic elements, functions, components and challenges of implementing V2V systems.
An autonomous vehicle, or a driverless vehicle, is one that is able to operate itself and perform necessary functions without any human intervention, through ability to sense its surroundings.
An autonomous vehicle utilises a fully automated driving system in order to allow the vehicle to respond to external conditions that a human driver would manage.
The document discusses safety precautions for autonomous vehicles including forward collision warning systems (FCW) and adaptive cruise control (ACC) systems. FCW uses radar sensors to detect objects ahead and warn the driver, while ACC uses radar, GPS, and map data to automatically control vehicle speed and braking to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead. Key advantages are convenience and more relaxed driving, while disadvantages include potential issues with sensor visibility and reliance on external systems.
This document discusses various accident prevention systems for passenger vehicles. It begins by outlining the causes of road accidents such as distracted driving and speeding. It then describes four key accident prevention systems: 1) forward collision mitigation systems that detect imminent crashes and automatically apply brakes, 2) lane departure systems that track vehicle position and alert drivers if they leave their lane, 3) blind spot detection systems that monitor sides and rear of vehicles to warn of approaching vehicles, and 4) adaptive headlight systems that turn with steering to improve visibility. In conclusion, the document states that while these systems are currently only in luxury cars, they may be deployed more widely in the future to potentially save millions of lives.

Seminar on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).pptxMohit Nayal
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) use sensors and computer vision algorithms to detect objects, warn drivers of potential accidents, and take actions to avoid collisions. ADAS applications have evolved from simple cruise control in the 1950s to now include lane keeping, automatic emergency braking, and other systems. As ADAS becomes more advanced with 64-bit processors and neural networks, vehicles are progressing toward full autonomy. The goal of ADAS is to reduce the over 90% of accidents caused by human error by assisting drivers or taking control in dangerous situations.

Nominet has developed expertise in dynamic spectrum management (DSM) through leading Ofcom trials in the UK and has built a global platform for DSM. Their role includes operating the UK's first geo-location database for TV white space frequencies and deploying the first commercial network using DSM on the Isle of Arran. Nominet is also working with regulators worldwide on adopting DSM and has deployed TVWS networks in the US and is developing solutions for 3.5GHz frequencies in the US. DSM provides benefits such as efficient flexible access while protecting incumbent users from interference.
This document discusses spectrum needs for utilities to enable smart grid developments. It covers the following key points:
1) Utilities need additional spectrum capabilities to support distribution automation, distributed energy resources, improved response efficiency, and customer communications as part of developing smart grids.
2) Critical smart grid communication components include teleprotection, SCADA, utility voice networks, and CCTV, which will require expanded coverage to medium voltage and low voltage layers.
3) The document establishes generic communication service requirements for utilities, including data rates, volumes, latency, and availability needs for various protection, monitoring, and control applications.
4) Examples are provided of spectrum approaches taken in other countries like the Netherlands and proposals in Ireland
The document discusses the 406.1-430 MHz frequency range and updates from the UK Spectrum Policy Forum meeting. It notes there appears to be demand for spectrum from multiple industry players in this range due to the UK UHF2 band plan. It also mentions the potential for increased sharing between the private sector and Ministry of Defense, subject to technical studies. Ofcom is establishing a group to examine the nature of demand in this area and consider remaining process issues.
The Spectrum Central Management Unit (CMU) is responsible for delivering the UK's public sector spectrum release programme and improving strategic spectrum use across government. The CMU brings a commercial and policy perspective to managing spectrum. Its objectives are to release spectrum from public to private use to generate economic and financial value. Over 384MHz of spectrum has already been released or shared towards the programme's 2022 target of releasing 750MHz below 10GHz. Challenges include changing spectrum needs, pressure for more efficient use, and balancing commercial and departmental priorities. Relationships and evidence are key to progressing decisions on release or sharing.
This document provides an update on sharing defence managed spectrum and upcoming work. It discusses the UK government's target to release 500 MHz of public sector spectrum by 2020 and 750 MHz by 2022. The Ministry of Defence manages around two-thirds of public sector spectrum. Key bands of interest for potential sharing include 406.2-430 MHz, 1427-1452 MHz, 2300-2350 MHz, 4800-4900 MHz, 5725-5850 MHz, and 7900-8400 MHz. Feasibility studies using paper modelling have been conducted for bands in the 2.3GHz and 1.4GHz ranges but proving the modelling and impact of capability loss present challenges. Over the next six months,
This document summarizes a presentation given by Shefali Sharma on her secondment to the British Deputy High Commission in Bengaluru, India from July to October 2017. The objectives of the secondment were to assess opportunities for UK space exports and Indian investment in the UK space industry, identify barriers faced by UK companies, and provide recommendations. Key opportunities identified included commercial and science space missions, smart cities projects, and telemedicine. Barriers included ISRO dominance, lack of UK awareness, and the competitive and relationship-driven nature of the Indian market. The presentation concludes with contact details for Shefali Sharma and her point of contact at the Department for International Trade.
The document discusses strategies for attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) to support the growth of the UK space industry. It outlines an aim to attract high value FDI to help grow the industry to £40 billion by 2030. The Department for International Trade (DIT) Space Team's strategy involves developing relationships with existing foreign space companies in the UK as well as identifying new potential investors. The DIT provides services to support both UK companies exporting and attracting investment into the UK space sector. A new vision targets attracting 20 new space FDI opportunities per year through 2021 with an estimated £3 billion in additional investment. Recommendations include high-level government engagement, marketing the UK as a hub for space innovation, developing
This document discusses priorities for UK space exports and trade negotiations following Brexit. It notes that the UK space industry generates over £5 billion in exports annually, with top markets in Europe, North America, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East. Key barriers include restricted government procurement, commercial restrictions, weak IP enforcement, and regulatory barriers. The document identifies priority countries for new trade agreements, including the US, India, China, Japan, and countries in the Gulf. It outlines opportunities and barriers in these markets, and provides examples of provisions in existing EU trade deals to boost space sector access. Officials seek industry feedback on identified priorities and barriers.
The document summarizes feedback from a UK workshop focused on opportunities in the US space market. Attendees identified strengths like small satellites and deployable systems, but also weaknesses such as a limited domestic market and technical base. Barriers to the UK exporting more to the US included difficulty seeing requirements, lack of direct marketing, and integrated US companies. The conclusion was that a strategy was needed to develop exports to major US buyers through improved promotion, intelligence, cooperation and connecting with investors.

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.

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.
