by Martin McClure Correctness of a multi-threaded program is much more difficult to achieve than correctness of a single-threaded program, but in some situations we can't avoid using more than one thread, and therefore have to deal with the resulting complexity. In this talk, Martin will present some of the threading problems he's seen and solutions to those problems, with a focus on the additional problems that arise when threads are terminated.

OOP with Smalltalk

FAST

by Nadina Martinez Carod, Silvia Amaro, Natalia Elizabet Baeza For more than 15 years we have instructed students to learn OOP using Smalltalk, mainly in concepts such as encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance, and polymorphism. At the end of the course, students are able to identify advantages in terms of reusability, creating and implementing simple solutions for typical problems. This is possible because of the characteristics and nature of this pure OO language and we choose it because we consider it the best way to start learning thinking differently. However, students usually present some difficulties when they start thinking in this new paradigm. After this first difficult step that they have to pass through, they finally get a whole idea about what OOP is, how and when they could use it. We use simple examples and typical problems by identifying implementation differences between different OO programming languages. This document explains our experience from a lecturer's point of view and shows some examples about what they are able to do during the OOP course for the Computer Science degree careers in the UNComahue. It also explains briefly what is the OOP related knowledge the University guarantee the students acquired during the Bachelor.

Smalltalk Computers, Past and Future by Jecel Mattos de Assumpção Jr

FAST

Alan's Kay FlexMachine thesis was a mix of hardware and software, as was the Dynabook idea. This was quickly followed by the Xerox Alto computer and then the D machines. Smalltalk-80 first became commercially available in the form of the Tektronix 4404 AI Workstation hardware and there were several academic Smalltalk hardware designs such as SOAR (Smalltalk On A RISC, retroactively renamed as RISC III to justify the RISC V name) from Berkeley, the Mushroom from Manchester and the 1024 processor J-Machine from MIT. Only with the introduction of Digitalk's Methods (later Smalltalk V) for the PC and ParcPlace's Smalltalk-80 for workstations did the language become a software-only product. Jecel started his 68000 based Merlin 1 Smalltalk computer project in 1984 and did several designs with commercial processor before moving on to his own Smalltalk specific processors in 1998. The current SiliconSqueak project and future research directions will be described in the context of the history mentioned above.

Adaptive Compilation by Jecel Mattos de Assumpção Jr

FAST

Traditional language implementations are interpreters and compilers, though it is possible to mix them: compiling source text to some bytecode which is then interpreted, for example. The performance of a hybrid system can be much greater by also compiling the bytecode to native machine language dynamically, which is known as JIT (Just In Time) compilation. The problem with this is that the compiler now has to do its job really fast because it is getting in the way of executing the actual application code. Most of the time is spent executing a tiny fraction of the code, known as the hot spots. An adaptive compiler can quickly generate usable code for the common case and then dedicate a lot more time doing a better job on the hot spots for a better overall performance. Such a system has unique advantages and complexities.

FAST

Anyone that has ever done a deployment with Smalltalk knows how easy it can be compared to other languages. But the technology space is always in motion and with a continued increase in DevOps roles, the rest of the world offers top notch technologies for improving deployment, availability, scalability, and other aspects of the whole software engineering process. In this talk, I will show how VA Smalltalk integrates smoothly with these technologies to build enterprise-class scalable and performant systems. I will demonstrate how to take an application from the development environment and prepare it for deployment. I will show how to get started with Docker by building Docker images and running them within isolated containers. Finally, I will create an ARM 64 cluster using Raspberry Pi and a Pine64 IoT devices that will be running a cloud of containers: a Docker Swarm

Deviation Testing: A Test Case Generation Technique for GraphQL APIs by Danie...

FAST

GraphQL is a flexible and expressive query language. With the objective to replace the flawed and inefficient REST architectural style, GraphQL has been adopted by numerous online APIs and services. Despite its popularity, testing theimplementation of a GraphQL schema is a crucial and still an open problem. We found that classical techniques of test generation may be efficiently applied to GraphQL server. We propose a simple but expressive technique called deviation testing that automatically searches for anomalies in the way a schema is served. We demonstrate the feasibility of our approach using an implementation of GraphQL for Pharo and VisualWorks. Running our technique on the popular Yelp and Apollo GraphQL server uncovered several anomalies in the way the schema is served.

BA-ST project ecosystem by Maxi Tabacman

FAST

With a group of like-minded and like-located smalltalkers, we have created the Github group "Buenos Aires Smalltalk" (BA-ST for short). In it we have been sharing a set of interconnected projects, that would allow many of the architectural challenges of current applications to be available from the start. You already know about Willow, but there are others. This talk will present an overview of some of these projects and what you can do with them, from configuring a new Github project, to working with graphs, state machines, systems and model creation, to name a few.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing

Aftab 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. - These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan 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.
