Wavelet estimation for a multidimensional acoustic or elastic earth- Arthur W...Arthur Weglein
A new and general wave theoretical wavelet estimation
method is derived. Knowing the seismic wavelet
is important both for processing seismic data and for
modeling the seismic response. To obtain the wavelet,
both statistical (e.g., Wiener-Levinson) and deterministic
(matching surface seismic to well-log data) methods
are generally used. In the marine case, a far-field
signature is often obtained with a deep-towed hydrophone.
The statistical methods do not allow obtaining
the phase of the wavelet, whereas the deterministic
method obviously requires data from a well. The
deep-towed hydrophone requires that the water be
deep enough for the hydrophone to be in the far field
and in addition that the reflections from the water
bottom and structure do not corrupt the measured
wavelet. None of the methods address the source
array pattern, which is important for amplitude-versus-
offset (AVO) studies

You have an application that works well on a single node, and you’ve heard that Erlang lets you scale out in a cluster. How do you go about doing that?
We’ll walk through the steps I took to turn ExVenture (a multiplayer game server) into a distributed application.
Starting with connecting nodes in development and production, to picking a cluster leader via the Raft protocol, and dealing with process groups to fan calls throughout the cluster.
Finally we’ll see some of the hurdles I encountered when spanning multiple nodes.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
3. Boardician’s design metaphor
There is a board on a table, a post-it of game data
attached to it, players sitting around and a director
standing.
He says 'play' successively to each of them and, as a
consequence, they according to their thoughts (play-
conditions) modify other players' thoughts by saying
things to them and modify the board/post-it with
their hands.
6. •BGPlayer : action of modifying game’s board/data/players'
play-conditions when
1. receiving #play
2. receiving other msg to do some work related to its
playing purpose
Tell #nextPlayer.
•<PlayCondition> : anything that conditions how a player
behaves when receiving #play (like
BGDirection : BGDown, … ;
BGPlayState : BGOver , BGPaused, … ;
BGUserInput: BGClick, BGKeyStroke). Not necessarily directly
known by the player.
•BGHuman : action of modifying (…) because of user input.
7. •BGDirector : action of directing game flow. Initialize and
know the things that made up the board game. Loop while
game not over : decide who plays next, send him #play.
•BGBoard : board’s space and items placed at it.
•BGData : game data that doesn't belong to any particular
object (like lives, score, ... )
•BGUserInterface : handling of user input/output.
•BGFloor can hold any type of BGBoardItem
(BGMovableItem, BGSteadyItem), while BGWall doesn’t
accept any
8. A possible workflow
To implement a game with the framework
1. Define game's director (subclass of BGDirector) and
then define/implement successively what is needed
in each msg sent from within BGDirector's msg
#initialize.
2. Run game sending 'BGDirectorSubclass new play'
and adjust details according debug windows.
3. Add enhancements (menu, settings, … )

BGHuman MIHuman
BGDirector MinesGame
•MIData: mines left, seconds spent playing.
•MITileAction: action of doing something on a tile (toggle flag /
uncover) and carrying on its consequences. It’s play-conditions are
the pointed MITile’s MICoverState and MIFlagState.

•DPPieceMover: action of moving current piece. It’s play-condition is
aBGDirection.
•DPPieceDropper: action of dropping current piece (if not bottomed
periodically drop it, if bottomed add it to board and drop a new one).
It’s play-conditions are aBGTimedState and the BGPosition of the
board where new pieces are first dropped)

•EMoveConsequencer : action of carrying on consequences of
moving an EEater / EMonster. Play-conditions: BGPosition,
EEater/EMonster , EPositionSituation subclasses.
•EEaterMover : action of moving an EEater and carrying on
consequences. Play-conditions: BGDirection.
•EMonsterMover: action of moving an EMonster and carrying on
consequences. Play-conditions: BGFloor subclasses, BGDirection,
EVulnerability, EAttitude.
•EScoreItemPlacer : action of placing/displacing a EScoreItem on the
board. Play-conditions: BGTimedState.
