Javascript has taken over the world of apps. It is the language for Internet and mobile app development. And Javascript developers want to work with JSON as their primary data structure of choice. Relational database developers can moan about a lack of concern for data integrity, consistency, etc. But that won't stop anybody. So maybe we should give them the best of both worlds: work with JSON, but store and manipulate that JSON data in a powerful, fast, secure relational database: Oracle Database. This presentation introduces attendees to Oracle Database 12c features that make it easy to work with JSON in the database, through PL/SQL, and to publish REST APIs to those PL/SQL calls.

Opal: Simple Web Services Wrappers for Scientific ApplicationsSriram Krishnan
The grid-based infrastructure enables large-scale scientific applications to be run on distributed resources and coupled in innovative ways. However, in practice, grid resources are not very easy to use for the end-users who have to learn how to generate security credentials, stage inputs and outputs, access grid-based schedulers, and install complex client software. There is an imminent need to provide transparent access to these resources so that the end-users are shielded from the complicated details, and free to concentrate on their domain science. Scientific applications wrapped as Web services alleviate some of these problems by hiding the complexities of the back-end security and computational infrastructure, only exposing a simple SOAP API that can be accessed programmatically by application-specific user interfaces. However, writing the application services that access grid resources can be quite complicated, especially if it has to be replicated for every application. In this presentation, we present Opal which is a toolkit for wrapping scientific applications as Web services in a matter of hours, providing features such as scheduling, standards-based grid security and data management in an easy-to-use and configurable manner

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.

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).

9. String Buffering
• If a given string is used more than once in a
form:
– String is loaded once
– Referencing occurs on client Fred Fred
Fred
Event Bundling Fred
• All triggering events sent in single Network
Message
Post-Change
Post-Item
When-Validate-Item
Pre-Item
When-New-Item-Instance
11. Goals
Minimize Startup time
Minimize client resource requirements
Minimize Oracle Forms Server resource
requirements
Use the network as little as possible
Accomplish as much as possible in one
network conversation
When rendering, be as efficient as possible
12. Minimizing Start Time
• Pre-start forms applet - startup a number of
application runtime engines prior to their usage
• Perceived performance - „SPLASH‟ screen
HTML Parameter
<APPLET>
…
<PARAM NAME= splashScreen
VALUE= >
"travel.jpg"
…
</APPLET>
13. Reduce Time to Draw Initial Screen
• Time to initialize Form is heavily influenced by
the amount of meta-data required to describe all
objects on the first Form the user sees
Property sets are
downloaded to
describe visible screen
• Break up large Modules into smaller ones
• Only display required canvases
• Set raise on entry = false for canvases
and items not needed for initial screen
14. Navigation Resources: Open/Call_Form
• Original Form
– Remains open on server
– Properties are cached on client
• System Resources
– Consumes more memory on server and client.
– Less Network round trips required to reload Form UI

15. Navigation Resources: New_Form
• Original Form
– Closed on server
– Object Properties on client are destroyed
• System Resources
– Consumes less memory on server and client.
– More Network round trips required to download form UI
(important if latency is bad)

16. Promote Similarities
• Similar items handled by the Forms smart delta
messaging
– Only differences are sent across the network
• Promote similarity in the UI – OLB, Visual attributes
– Use Inheritance - Property classes and Object groups
– Use subclasses – draw multiple objects with standard settings
• Group setting of properties into like-groups
...
set_item_property(text_item1_id, FONT WEIGHT, “Bold”);
set_item_property(text_item2_id, FONT WEIGHT, “Bold”);
set_item_property(text_item3_id, FONT WEIGHT, “Bold”);
set_item_property(button_item1_id, LABEL, “Exit”);
...
17. Boilerplates and Images on Canvases
• Boilerplates are downloaded as VGS objects
– Make labels prompts when upgrading from older Forms versions
– Prompts automatically participate in message diff'ing and string
caching
• Reduce using Arcs, Circles and Polygons as
boilerplates
– Replace by rectangles and lines
text
Boilerplate Objects
18. Reduce Items on the Screen: Tab canvases
• All items of all tabs are
downloaded to client
• Use hidden stacked
canvas on each tab
to defer download
• Code changes
–WHEN-TAB-PAGE-CHANGED
trigger
–RAISE_ON_ENTRY=YES
–VISIBLE=NO
19. Save Images In JAR Files
• Iconic buttons on the Web are in gif and jpeg
formats
• Put your .GIF and PJCs files in the JAR
– Faster download
– Takes advantage of the cache
• Store all images of an application in a
single Jar
– Jar files are permanently cached on the client
20. Mouse Triggers & Network Traffic
• Dangers of mouse triggers – Increase network
traffic
• MOUSE-DOWN triggering event always generates
a second MOUSE-UP message even if trigger
hasn‟t been defined
• Mouse triggers often defined at higher level in
hierarchy or on Canvas
– causes multiple execution of trigger
Move trigger code to specific
items requiring Mouse triggers
21. Timer Trigger
• Timer Process occurs in client side code (Java
client)
• Has severe ramifications on number of network
round-trips generated
• e.g. 1 mSec timer := 60,000 round trips per minute
Forms
Client
Server
What you can do:
-Choose timer trigger delays carefully
-Use PJCs to implement “Clock”, “Progress Bar”, and
“Animation” functionalities
22. Minimize Round Trips
• Design applications that do not require a user to
navigate through fields if default values are
accepted
• Be wary of SYNCHRONIZE Built-In
– The "universal weapon" for coding problems in
client/server introduces performance hits on the Web
– Round-trip from server to client
– Overuse generates unnecessary network traffic
– Problems handled by "synchronize" on client/server may
not exist anymore
23. Summary: Optimize the Design
• Use subclasses - drawing multiple objects
with standard settings is more efficient
– Reduced messages from “message diff-ing”
• Use event bundling
• Use PLL libraries
– Concurrent users can share memory used by a library
• Minimize use of graphic items
• Use prompts
24. Summary: Other Performance Tips
• A slow server never runs applications fast
• You can't think without brains - Configure the
server with enough memory
• Make sure that your hardware can handle the
load
• Latency can be introduced by non network
components
• Locate app server close to database server
• Monitor forms performance to see where
improvements can be made
27. Track All Requests Through All Hops
• Track all user requests through all components (not
just Java and .Net)
• Track and meter single end user across entire stack
• Apache, OC4J, Forms Runtime and Oracle Database
Applet
Apache
OC4J
Forms Runtime
Specific SQLs
