Fan-Out and Embedded Die: Two promising Wafer/Panel-Level-Packaging technologies. What are the next steps for the growth?
Fan-Out Wafer Level Packaging is already in high-volume – but it’s about to grow even more strongly
Fan-Out Wafer Level Packaging (FOWLP) started volume commercialization in 2009/2010 and started promisingly, with initial push by Intel Mobile. However, it was limited to a narrow range of applications – essentially single die packages for cell phone baseband chips – reaching its limit in 2011. In 2012 big fab-less wireless/mobile players started slowly volume production after qualifying the technology...
The document provides an overview of IoT hardware innovation within the AGILE project. It discusses the development of modular gateway hardware based on a design for modularity (DFM) methodology. This includes the specification, design, and implementation of two gateway platforms - a "makers" version based on Raspberry Pi and an industrial version with a new design based on Intel architecture. The gateway uses a set of core and expansion modules compliant with COM Express and HAT standards. Hardware prototypes were developed for both gateways and expansion modules. The DFM methodology aims to design sustainable standard and customized products through high reuse of modules. This reduces costs and time to market compared to traditional approaches.

Guideline for the Two-Dimensional Simulation of Spandrel Panel Thermal Perfor...RDH Building Science
While the approach to thermal simulation of vision glazing areas is well documented by groups such as the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC), the approach to simulate opaque spandrel panels is not similarly documented. Furthermore, spandrel assemblies are substantially different from conventional
opaque wall assemblies (i.e., concrete, steel stud, wood stud, etc.). To address this industry need, RDH in partnership with the Fenestration Association of BC (FENBC) and funding from BC Housing has developed a procedure to determine spandrel panel U-factors using common industry tools and familiar methods. The methodology includes consideration of various spandrel panel arrangements and builds off the existing NFRC 100 simulation methodology. The objective of this procedure is to document a reasonably accurate and practical approach to determine opaque spandrel area U-values with higher precision and uniformity. This allows for both the accurate representation of these systems with regards to code compliance and
energy modelling, as well as the fair comparison of competing products.

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.

Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAUpanagenda
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away

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:

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

8. Benefits of Enclosure Functions
Enclosures
E l
Over and beyond a very basic welded-box,
modular enclosures provide:
Much greater range of dimensions in H x W x D
Comprehensive, quick-install accessories
Multiple mounting options within the
same platform
Ease of wiring due to removable skins & doors
Unique configurations with standard inventory
Panel Savings with New Enclosure Technology B. Downing/Marketing/2010 8
9. Panel Size
Most panel designers only consider
p g y
the mounting panel when laying out their
design. Thus, enclosure size is
dictated by panel size.
A Modular, frame-based system can
offer up to 30% more panel space in
an equivalent size enclosure vs. a
welded box due to the latter’s large
flange support areas (Main panel
areas.

Modular Systems
• M d l systems are not as strong (thinner
Modular t t t (thi
gauge steel) as the traditional style (OGB)
– The TS8 holds 3000 lbs., the same as a fully equipped F150 truck
• Modular systems are more expensive
– They are overall more cost competitive than OGB
• Modular systems require a lot of assembly
work (“erector set”)
– Only the assembly of the side walls is needed to provide a complete
enclosure
• Must order a bunch of part numbers
– Only 2 part numbers are needed to provide a complete enclosure, the same
as OGB
Panel Savings with New Enclosure Technology B. Downing/Marketing/2010 15
16. Technological Improvements
• Most designers have switched to current (2000’s)
control technology in PLC’s, Starters, Drives, etc.
• Yet they package these products in 1940’s-1950’s
enclosure designs (end product looks like old
technology)
• Most are unaware of improvements in enclosure
designs unless they study the global market
– Most enclosure manufacturers don’t have the
technology (esp local fab shops)

25. Consider this…
Cutouts / Modifications
When the installer cuts into the panel, will metal filings fall on my
electrical equipment?
How easy is it to do the cutouts?
How do I ensure that the equipment is protected during
installation?
Do I have enough room inside the enclosure for wire bending (per
NEC), wire bundles, termination points, tie-off points and spares?
Is there enough room around my enclosure for the installer to
work?
