This document discusses asynchronous programming in Python. It introduces the concepts of asynchronous I/O, event loops, and callbacks. Traditional approaches to asynchronous programming using callbacks are messy and hard to organize. Generators and coroutines provide a cleaner solution through yield and await keywords. The asyncio module implements asynchronous I/O with coroutines and provides an event loop to execute coroutine functions concurrently.
This document discusses Processing, an open-source programming language and environment used primarily for visual design, prototyping, and data visualization. Processing is useful for visualizing data through animation, creating embeddable web content, and as an educational tool. The document outlines Processing's purpose, installation, benefits, limitations, licensing, examples of use, and competitors.
The document discusses hardware hacking and designing playful experiences that foreground social interactions using technologies beyond screens and keyboards. It notes some challenges in designing asynchronous games where players are geographically distant and provides examples from the past that have addressed this, such as big scoreboards. The document advocates for designing tactile games using mobile phones, custom hardware, and tangible interfaces that can transform relationships with technology and provide pleasure through play.
This document discusses data visualization using Processing and introduces different data formats like CSV, JSON, and XML. It explains how to get data into Processing, parse it into useful objects, and render those objects on screen. CSV stores data in comma-separated values, JSON stores data as JavaScript objects, and XML stores nested nodes to define flexible data structures. The document demonstrates parsing JSON data into objects using JSONObject and JSONArray classes and storing objects in ArrayLists to render on screen with properties like position, size, color, and rotation.
Hacking the Newsroom
This is the slide deck for a presentation I gave this year at FlashBelt, Flash on the Beach, and Flash on Tap. Despite the names of these conferences, the presentation has nothing to do with Flash.
Here is the session description:
"In February, the New York Times announced that it was giving away the keys to 28 years of data - news stories, movie reviews, obituaries, and political statistics - all for free. Wether the dying gasp of an legendary institution, or the beginnings of an extraordinary rebirth, the release of this vast and historically significant information is a boon to data visualizers, entrepreneurs, social scientists and artists around the world.
In this session, Jer will show a variety of work that he has produced using data from The New York Times and The Guardian newspapers. He'll show how to access this information easily in Flash and Processing, and will share code samples to get you started in explorations of your own. Along the way, he'll attempt to examine how a new era of open data is affecting science, art, and design."

Programming for Artists and Designers: Week 3Tinker
Functions allow code to be reused and organized. Functions can run once, repeatedly, or in response to events like mouse clicks or key presses. Functions group related code into logical units, making the overall program easier to understand and maintain. Parameters allow functions to be generalized for different inputs, and return values allow functions to provide outputs to the rest of the program. Well-designed functions promote modularity and code reuse.
Programming for Artists and Designers: Week 2Tinker
This document discusses fundamental programming concepts including variables, arrays, for loops, and if statements. It explains that variables can store and change values, while arrays allow storing multiple values in indexed locations. For loops are used to iterate through arrays or repeat code a specified number of times. If/else statements allow executing different code blocks conditionally depending on whether expressions are true or false.
Mobile games often involve context outside clearly defined playing fields and technologies beyond traditional game tools. The document discusses how mobile games emphasize social aspects and asynchronous play with changing player pools. It also explores how hacking games and hardware can suggest new mechanics by playing with technologies like RFID in novel ways, creating convenient random number generators, tracking people, and gaming systems in new relationships with tools.
The document discusses setting up XBee and RFID hardware and networking. XBees allow for wireless mesh networking and communication between devices. An XBee network requires a coordinator and routers/endpoints. The document provides instructions for programming an XBee router and connecting it to an Arduino. It also discusses using an RFID reader with Arduino to read tag serial numbers and combining XBee and RFID systems to communicate tag readings wirelessly.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

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