zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

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.

17. Support Units for Food Distribution of
Family Farming
The Units are areas structured and equipped in
order to help the distribution, in the municipality
and in the region, of foodstuffs from family
agriculture, particularly the ones acquired
through the Food Purchase Program (PAA) or the
National School Feeding Program (PNAE). It
should act in the support for the
commercialization of family agriculture food
production in the local and regional markets,
aiming at the development of social and
productive inclusion projects and at the
strengthening of food systems of agro ecological
and solidarity base.
21. Support Units for Food Distribution of Family
Farming

The Food Banks are public facilities that are part
of the operational network of SISAN. They are
characterized as strategic units of supply and fight
against food waste from the urban and
metropolitan food chain. They assist in the
distribution of foodstuffs from PAA, besides
serving as a link to PNAE. The Food Banks orient
their action towards the donation of foodstuff to
social assistance institutions that offer food to
people in vulnerable situations, besides
contributing to the supply of Community Kitchens,
Popular Restaurants and School Units.
24. MODERNIZATION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES OF SUPPORT
TO PRODUCTION , TO SUPPLY AND TO FOOD
CONSUMPTION
The Popular Restaurants are public facilities of food
and nutrition security destined to the preparation
of healthy meals commercialized at reasonable
prices or freely distributed.
The Food Banks are public facilities of food and
nutrition security that are characterized as strategic
units of supply and fight against the food waste
from the urban and metropolitan agrifood chain.
