Tablet devices such as the iPad and devices running Android operating systems are becoming increasingly popular. They are lightweight, portable devices with touch screens that are designed for activities like internet access, email, reading ebooks, and watching multimedia content. While tablets provide advantages like long battery life and ease of use, there are some limitations to using them for tasks like typing or accessing Flash content. Different tablets may be better suited for different users and purposes, such as the iPad being well-suited for casual home use while devices like the Samsung Galaxy Tab can offer more features for mobile professionals.

Megan McKeever - InfoCulture Final Presentation
This document discusses key points about usability testing and considerations for designing usable websites and applications. It recommends not relying completely on formal usability testing methods like eye tracking and instead also using surveys, focus groups, and feedback. It highlights the need to anticipate changes in technology and be lifelong learners. When clients question the need for usability, designers should remind them that ease of use impacts whether people voluntarily use a site. Usability is important for all users, including special populations.

If a tablet can’t integrate into your enterprise environment well enough to perform basic tasks for your workers, it has no business in your workplace. In our tests, the Acer ICONIA W510-1422 tablet powered by an Intel Atom processor and Windows 8 completed common scenarios more quickly than the third-generation Apple iPad, and encountered nearly no integration issues for the tasks we tested.

Programming Foundation Models with DSPy - Meetup Slides
Prompting language models is hard, while programming language models is easy. In this talk, I will discuss the state-of-the-art framework DSPy for programming foundation models with its powerful optimizers and runtime constraint system.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
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.

HCL Notes und Domino Lizenzkostenreduzierung in der Welt von DLAU
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-und-domino-lizenzkostenreduzierung-in-der-welt-von-dlau/
DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt. Vor allem wollen Sie sicherlich Ihr Budget einhalten und Kosten sparen, wo immer möglich. Das verstehen wir und wir möchten Ihnen dabei helfen!
Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren. Sie werden in der Lage sein, Ihre Kosten durch eine optimierte Domino-Konfiguration zu reduzieren und auch in Zukunft gering zu halten.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
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.

- User experience – usability, accessibility uses, multimedia, more engaging experience Applications in special education and for disabilities e.g. usability of touch screen Increasing number of applications for creating stuff - not just a device for “ consuming ” content Good multimedia experience (but no Flash support on ipads!) May 11, 2011
- Not easy to set up as devices to be shared among students (yet). e.g. limitations/complications with multiple profiles Not a laptop – lots of implications e.g. technical issues in setting up in a college or similar; no Microsoft Office Virtual keyboard not so good for long passages of typing Lack of suitable eBooks for education ( “ this is likely to improve ” ) May 11, 2011
