- The document provides an update on the Eastern Academic Scholars' Trust (EAST) project, which aims to analyze over 20 million monographs held by participating libraries to make retention commitments and reduce unnecessary duplication.
- Major milestones since July 2014 include BLC becoming the host institution, requesting formal commitments from libraries, and submitting iterative proposals to the Mellon Foundation for anticipated funding.
- The goals of EAST are to analyze collections, design a validation study, secure retention commitments, finalize policies and business model, and explore relationships with other shared print programs.

The document outlines a leadership training for student leaders at Egerton University's Faculty of Science on April 6, 2013. It discusses the presenter's background and experience in various leadership roles as a class representative and chairman. The presentation covers tips for leadership such as willingness over ability, mentoring others, sacrificing time, delegation, communication, and growing others. It concludes by providing the presenter's contact information.
The document discusses basketball in the state of Indiana. It talks about how basketball is deeply ingrained in Indiana culture and history, from the small town depicted in the film "Hoosiers" to the success of college teams like Butler University and Indiana University. It also discusses the Indiana Pacers NBA franchise and how former Indiana high school and college star Larry Bird now manages the team. Basketball is an important part of Indiana identity.
This document discusses issues around data access and sharing in the digital humanities. It references a fable about heaven and hell involving a banquet with three-foot long spoons that people can use to feed each other. The document proposes the HathiTrust Research Center, which would maintain a repository of text mining algorithms and tools to support non-consumptive research using copyrighted materials through computational analysis without full text extraction. The challenges of gaining publisher permission for this type of analysis are also discussed.
The document discusses the Baroque era, which developed in Europe from the early 17th to mid-18th century. It was championed by the Catholic Church in response to the Protestant Reformation. The Baroque era was characterized by extravagant, complex, and ornate styles, especially in art, architecture, theater, and music. Specific examples highlighted include paintings by Peter Paul Rubens and architectural works like St. Peter's Basilica in Rome.

Este documento describe la síntesis de geles óxidos poliméricos. Se obtienen mediante la polimerización de unidades multifuncionales que forman enlaces químicos para asegurar la cohesión del sistema. La transición sol-gel no es reversible una vez formados los enlaces.

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.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

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.
Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
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.
