Right to Water. Indonesia Water and Sanitation Magazine. 3rd Edition 2010Oswar Mungkasa
The UN General Assembly passed a resolution recognizing access to clean water and sanitation as a human right. The resolution was approved by 163 UN member countries with no objections. It calls on countries to increase access to safe water and sanitation for all people. Currently, 884 million people lack access to clean water and 2.6 billion people have limited access to sanitation, resulting in 1.5 million child deaths per year from water-related diseases. While some countries abstained over concerns about defining the scope of the right, water experts view the resolution as an important step forward in improving global access to these essential resources.

The document discusses the challenges Indonesia faces in achieving Millennium Development Goals for water supply and sanitation by 2015, as over 50% of Indonesians in rural areas still lack basic sanitation facilities and access to clean water, while the government admits it does not have enough budget for development. It argues that private sector contribution is needed and corporate social responsibility should include fairness to stakeholders, acting as an agent of change for community empowerment, and efficient solutions focused on stakeholders in areas of operation. The private sector could launch community development programs, provide micro-financing for sanitation, or participate in building water supply infrastructure.

The Community-led Total Sanitation Story in IndonesiaOswar Mungkasa
1. Rural sanitation access in Indonesia had stagnated for over 20 years at around 38% despite government programs. Policymakers were seeking new approaches.
2. In 2005, Indonesia introduced Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS), which had shown success in Bangladesh and India. CLTS aligned with Indonesia's goals of empowering communities and decentralization.
3. CLTS is now being scaled up nationally through projects and programs. It is shifting control over sanitation to communities while also transforming the roles of local governments and donors in rural sanitation. Overcoming resistance to change remains an ongoing process.

Sundarban and back during 3-6 October 2012. The endeavour was supported by the World Bank supported
Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) Project
by the Department of Environment, Government
of West Bengal in association with non-profits WWF-India
and Environment Governed Integrated Organisation
(EnGIO).
The main objective of the meeting was to cater
the formation of a Sundarban Stakeholder Network
consisting of independent experts, organizations,
academic and business institutes, media and other
relevant professional outfits; supplemented by relevant
government departments/organizations. Sundarban
Stakeholder Network proposes to play a pivotal role in
finding a bouquet of trans-boundary and transformative
solutions for conserving the unique natural heritage, and
to usher in sustainable development in the eco-region.
The agricultural sector is amongst the most important sectors for Tanzanian economic development. The sector is dominated by smallholder farmers. It employs 75% of Tanzanians and produces an average of 95% of the national food demand. In 2012, the sector contributed 26.8% of the GDP. Generally, the effects of Climate Change on the Tanzanian agricultural sector include: reduced crop yield due to drought and floods leading to increased risks of food shortage and famine; change in planting dates of annual crops; reduced water availability due to frequent drought spells, decrease in forest area and area for cultivation; increased temperatures; increased exposure to vector-borne and water-borne diseases etc. When it comes to climate variability, it is small-scale farmers who are hit first and hardest by climate change.
This analysis of Kilosa and Chamwino District Councils District Agricultural Development Plans (DADPs) for 2010/2011, 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 was carried out in order to provide recommendations on how DADPs can address climate change adaptation and mitigation in relation to small-scale farmers. In accomplishing this analysis, review was made to the said DADPs documents for the two districts as well as two field visits for Focus Group Discussions in two villages one in Kilosa District and the other in Chamwino District. Other relevant documents were also reviewed to make it possible to provide useful insights to respond to the requirements of the analysis.

The document discusses waste management practices in the Sakumono community in Ghana and advanced countries. In the Sakumono community, waste is collected but then dumped in landfills without sorting or processing. This is resulting in landfills filling up more quickly. In contrast, in advanced countries, waste is sorted into materials like paper, metal, plastic and glass after collection. These materials are then processed and can be used as resources. The document proposes harvesting methane gas from waste in the Sakumono community as was done in advanced countries to provide a beneficial resource for the community.
The report proposes solutions for managing organic waste in the rural township of Bambui, Cameroon. It evaluates various design options and selects a dry and press machine to compress dried organic waste into briquettes for fuel. The machine will help address Bambui's waste problems by reducing organic materials going to open landfills and providing an alternative fuel source. The report details the machine's construction, analyzes costs and benefits, and discusses engaging stakeholders and the community. It recommends the design as an effective and feasible way to improve Bambui's waste management and environmental issues.

"Choosing proper type of scaling", Olena SyrotaFwdays
Imagine an IoT processing system that is already quite mature and production-ready and for which client coverage is growing and scaling and performance aspects are life and death questions. The system has Redis, MongoDB, and stream processing based on ksqldb. In this talk, firstly, we will analyze scaling approaches and then select the proper ones for our system.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
Fueling AI with Great Data with Airbyte WebinarZilliz
This talk will focus on how to collect data from a variety of sources, leveraging this data for RAG and other GenAI use cases, and finally charting your course to productionalization.
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.

Main news related to the CCS TSI 2023 (2023/1695)Jakub Marek
An English 🇬🇧 translation of a presentation to the speech I gave about the main changes brought by CCS TSI 2023 at the biggest Czech conference on Communications and signalling systems on Railways, which was held in Clarion Hotel Olomouc from 7th to 9th November 2023 (konferenceszt.cz). Attended by around 500 participants and 200 on-line followers.
The original Czech 🇨🇿 version of the presentation can be found here: https://www.slideshare.net/slideshow/hlavni-novinky-souvisejici-s-ccs-tsi-2023-2023-1695/269688092 .
The videorecording (in Czech) from the presentation is available here: https://youtu.be/WzjJWm4IyPk?si=SImb06tuXGb30BEH .
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

world's water supply. While in Asia Pacific,
21 percent of water supply is in Indonesia.
But compared to Malaysia and some other
countries in Southeast Asia, the fulfillment water supply for
the population in Indonesia is much lower.
Until now the Indonesian people who have access of
drinking water is less than 40 percent. The coverage of pipe
system only 17 percent, far below the target that has been set
earlier.
The network covers only 32 percent of the urban areas
and much lower in rural areas. Of course the real scope in
the field is much lower, and in many places, it’s not optimally
functioning.
Currently, the Ministry of Public Works is working hard
to build a drinking water facilities for 15 million family in
