Introduction to Power BI a Business Intelligence Tool by Apurva RamtekeApurva Ramteke
Power BI is a tool which provides users with very intelligent statistical analysis of raw data and to derive beautiful reports out of it using hundreds of power Visualization. Not just it Power BI provides a build in advantage of Power Views and Power Queries derived from Excel as a base with a very easy process learning. I personally call it very Intelligently dumb tool, because its so easy for normal user to use it and make highly interactive reporting and Dashboards. The Dashboard which are created can be shared with multiple users with specific permission levels to access the reports.

Operational dashboarding and reporting with Microsoft Business IntelligenceJohn White
A great looking, relevant, informative dashboard for the executive is the ultimate end goal for most Business Intelligence projects. Microsoft has all of the tools that are necessary to get data from your transactional systems into an effective dashboard. What is less clear is to how to go about achieving it. Which tools should you use? As with most things, we have different tools for different requirements, and it isn't always clear as to how they match up.
This session will focus on what the various reporting and dashboarding tools from Microsoft can do for you, where you should use them, and how to get them working for you. Both on premises and cloud based scenarios will be discussed. At the conclusion of this session, you should have a fundamental understanding of the Microsoft products in this space fit together, including Excel, Reporting Services, SharePoint, Power View, and PerformancePoint.

Starting in May 2010, with SQL Server 2008 R2, Microsoft began talking more and more about "Personal BI". The focus of this discussion was a paradigm shift moving business intelligence from being something a few BI professionals do with a data warehouse to a practice done by Information Workers every day in familiar tools like Microsoft Excel and SharePoint. Over the course of this session we will show you the improvements that Microsoft has made in the 2013 stack to take this new focus from being a “nice idea” to a truly powerful reality. We will explore the improvements made to Excel, PowerPivot & Power View, & Reporting Services. We will explain the underlying technology that makes the new features possible and walk through demos of some of the shinier toys. At the end of the session you will walk away with a better understanding of what is new in 2013 for business intelligence and an extreme desire to build reusable data model that will undoubtedly bring real value to your business.

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.

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.

Editor's Notes
Power BI lets you establish live connectivity with on-premises SQL Server Analysis Services tabular models
Simply configure the connector to work with your existing SSAS solution
With this connector, there is no need to move any data to the cloud – your data stays in SSAS on-premises, even while it is viewed in Power BI
The connection is live – meaning that when users view and explore dashboards, Power BI interactively queries the on-premises cube to fetch the data right then
This enables efficient data exploration thanks to optimized query performance
You can create reports with SSAS data on powerbi.com, even while data remains on-premises
Your existing, role-based SSAS permissions still apply – user access to SSAS data via Power BI is controlled the same way
The connection to SSAS is secured via Azure Service Bus SSL encryption
Let’s walk through an overview of how Power BI works.
First, Power BI connects to a variety of data sources. These range across both cloud and on-premises sources, and include:
A variety of popular SaaS solutions, such as Marketo, Salesforce, GitHub, Dyanmics CRM, Zendesk, and several others
On-premises databases – Power BI offers live connectivity to SQL Server Analysis Services, which we’ll cover in more detail later. And using a gateway solution, Power BI can connect to over 20 other database solutions, such as Oracle and IBM databases.
Custom data sources – Power BI can connect to any data source you need it to thanks to its extensibility via REST APIs. This includes both proprietary corporate data sources, as well as external data services. For example, if you are a SaaS solution provider, you can work with Microsoft to connect your solution to Power BI.
Other Azure services – Power BI integrates tightly with SQL Azure and Stream Analytics, and will be integrating closely with more Azure services over time
PowerBI Designer and Excel files – Excel workbooks can be directly connected to Power BI.com, or may be used with Power BI Designer. Power BI Designer is a companion application to the Power BI service – it is a desktop tool that supports data analysis and reporting.

You’re looking at Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for BI and Analytics Platforms, published in February 2017. Microsoft is named as a Leader.
You’ll notice that Microsoft is a Market Leader and the furthest of any vendor to the right of the quadrant – Gartner considered Microsoft the most visionary of all BI vendors.
Oracle is not in the Leader’s quadrant; they are a “Niche Player”. It should be noted that Oracle was not even featured in Gartner’s 2016 Magic Quadrant and whilst their product has improved since then, it still lags the leaders.
