This document provides an overview of IBM's efforts to develop a real-time flood simulation system for Metro Manila and the Philippines. The system aims to combine flood simulation tools, web mapping, and other technologies to predict flood levels in real-time and provide hazard maps to warn people of flooding. It processes rainfall data from satellites and rain gauges as input for a flood routing model. Output is converted to an XML format and displayed on a webpage to help emergency response. The long-term goal is to automate the process and integrate more data sources and mapping capabilities.

Throughout the last century flooding has been one of the most costly disasters in terms of both property damage and human casualties. Major floods in China, for example, killed about 2 million people in 1887, nearly 4 million in 1931, and about 1 million in 1938.
The 2007 flood was a major flood in Jakarta, affected several other areas around the city, such as West Java and Banten. The flood is considered the worst in the last three centuries, including the 1996 and 2002 Jakarta floods, which killed 10 and 25 people respectively.
In less developed countries, humans are particularly sensitive to flood casualties because of high population density, absence of zoning regulations, lack of flood control, and lack of emergency response infrastructure and early warning systems.
In industrialized countries the loss of life is usually lower because of flood control structures, zoning regulations that prevent the habitation of seriously vulnerable lands, and emergency preparedness. Still, property damage and disruption of life takes a great toll, and despite flood control structures and land use planning, floods still do occur.

Complexity Neural Networks for Estimating Flood Process in Internet-of-Things...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
With the advancement of the Internet of Things (IoT)-based water conservation computerization, hydrological data is increasingly enriched. Considering the ability of deep learning on complex features extraction, we proposed a flood process forecastin gmodel based on Convolution Neural Network(CNN) with two-dimension(2D) convolutional operation. At first, we imported the spatial-temporal rainfall features of the Xixian basin. Subsequently, extensive experiments were carried out to determine the optimal hyperparameters of the proposed CNN flood forecasting model.

Mobile Fog: A Programming Model for Large–Scale Applications on the Internet ...HarshitParkar6677
creating a new environment, namely the Internet of Things
(IoT), that enables a wide range of future Internet applications.
In this work, we present Mobile Fog, a high level
programming model for future Internet applications that are
geospatially distributed, large–scale, and latency–sensitive.
We analyze use cases for the programming model with camera
network and connected vehicle applications to show the
efficacy of Mobile Fog. We also evaluate application performance
through simulation.
Fog Computing and Its Role in the Internet of ThingsHarshitParkar6677
Fog Computing extends the Cloud Computing paradigm to
the edge of the network, thus enabling a new breed of applications
and services. Dening characteristics of the Fog
are: a) Low latency and location awareness; b) Wide-spread
geographical distribution; c) Mobility; d) Very large number
of nodes, e) Predominant role of wireless access, f) Strong
presence of streaming and real time applications, g) Heterogeneity.
In this paper we argue that the above characteristics
make the Fog the appropriate platform for a number
of critical Internet of Things (IoT) services and applications,
namely, Connected Vehicle, Smart Grid , Smart
Cities, and, in general, Wireless Sensors and Actuators Networks
(WSANs).
VSP: A Virtual Smartphone Platform to Enhance the Capability of Physical Smar...Keshav Vaswani
Abstract—Smart mobile devices have become ubiquitous, and
people prefer to choose smartphone in daily life rather than
use the traditional personal computer. However, due to the hardware capability, the performance of smartphones varies greatly and sometimes it cannot meet the demand of users. Furthermore, if the smartphone is attacked by a malicious application, the local private sensitive information will be leaked which in turn will cause huge losses. This paper proposes VSP, a Virtual Smartphone Platform. It offers a new way to enhance the capability of the physical smartphone by providing virtual smartphone (VS) deployed in the cloud. Users operate VS remotely through the thin-client of
VSP on physical smartphones, and ignore the limits of physical mobile devices. The isolation of VS in cloud platform guarantees the security between VSes and also prevents access to private sensitive information on physical devices. The evaluation indicates that average bandwidth cost with zlib is about 80 kBps and it is suitable for use in practice.
Index Terms—Virtualization, Android, Remote Display, Cloud

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).
