The document discusses context-adaptive digital maps for public displays. Two user studies were conducted to determine preferred map content and the effect of context. The first study found that tourists maps and maps of pubs, pharmacies, and football games were preferred. Prototypes were then developed adapting to location, time, and identity. A second study showed shopping, pubs and world news maps were favorites, especially when adapted to neighborhood scale and daily/weekly updates. Recommendations included practical small-screen content that encourages interaction and adapts to context like user location and timing of relevant information. The studies demonstrated the effectiveness of techniques like user-centered design, paper prototyping, and context-adaptive maps.

COGNITIVE SPACE IN THE INTERACTIVE MOVIE MAP: AN INVESTIGATION OF SPATIAL LEA...michelafelici1
A working system for movement through the space of a virtual environment
under full interactive control has been developed, implemented, and evaluated. This interactive movie map is an optical video-disc-based system
under computer control. Users are able to learn about an unfamiliar urban
space by 'traveling' around at will through sequences of photographic footage and 'helicoptering' above dynamic aerial photos and reference maps.
2012 ASPRS Track, Modernized Method for Estimating Time-Weighted Urban Popula...GIS in the Rockies
Potentially hazardous substances are used with increasing frequency in modern life. Consequently, the potential for human exposure to these substances is a major concern globally. This paper examines a method developed in the 1983 to 1985 at the USA Environmental Protection Agency. The author of this paper was the principal investigator of that method. The computer based method developed estimates urban population distribution in specified units of geography during twelve 2-hour periods of the day. The population distributions are further disaggregated by sex and age categories. Since the development of this method significant advances in the resolution, comparability and frequency of available remotely sensed data have been made. These data lend themselves very well to a modernization of this method, the usefulness of this method in urban areas globally and improved quality of the results of the model. Recommended improvements to this method are discussed, practicality of use is assessed and a prototypical model of the method is offered using southwestern Colorado USA as a study area.

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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Part I & Part II Discussion
• On-the-spot interviews reduced the number
of maps considered useful.
• The favorites chosen - shopping, pubs, and
world news - were the same in both studies.
• The favorite maps were context-adaptive:
location neighborhood scale
time hourly/daily/weekly updates
• Clear preference for certain maps at certain
times.
45. Requirement recommendations
• Practical content for a small screen.
• Present information that is novel,
interesting, or useful enough to
encourage future interaction.
• Not all novel, interesting, or useful
information belongs on a map.
46. Requirement recommendations
The most appealing map content adapts
to context:
• large-scale map with user’s
location
• presenting information when it is
most relevant to the user
• possible to adapt the content to
identity
