Abstract Data Types
Abstract data types (ADTs) specify operations on data without defining implementation. Common ADTs include sets, lists, stacks, queues, maps, trees and graphs. Sets contain unique elements; lists are ordered; stacks use last-in first-out access; queues use first-in first-out access; maps store key-value pairs; trees link parent nodes to children; and graphs link vertices with edges. Core operations for collections include adding, removing and accessing elements.
Queues
The document discusses queues and their implementation using linked lists and arrays. It defines a queue as a first-in, first-out (FIFO) data structure where elements are inserted at the rear and deleted from the front. Operations on queues include enqueue, which inserts an element at the rear, and dequeue, which removes an element from the front and returns it. The document provides pseudocode for implementing queues using linked lists with a front and rear pointer and using arrays with front and rear indices.

Pyconuk2011
At the University of Southampton we design, build, and fly high end unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for civilian usage. For this we are developing DECODE (Decision Environment for COmplex Design Evaluation), a toolset that integrates the different codes needed to successfully design and build an efficient UAV: costing code, fluid simulation codes, operational simulation model, geometry engine, etc. The goal is to have a fully automated end-2-end UAV design system that can be used to rapidly design custom built UAVs that can be quickly and cheaply manufactured using techniques like 3D printing. Our main case study is the use of UAVs for search and rescue (to replace/augment expensive helicopters) and for this we are working together with the Solent coast guard. We are also exploring other case studies with the Met Office, BBC, and others.

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.

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 deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
