This document proposes enhancing citizen media as evidence for human rights investigations and as a news source by establishing standards and procedures for verifying, corroborating, and contextualizing citizen media submissions. It discusses techniques for establishing the authenticity and integrity of media such as embedding metadata, linking to corroborating devices and information, and obtaining informed consent from subjects. The goal is to build trust in citizen media for its use in human rights and journalism applications.
NoSQL oder: Freiheit ist nicht schmerzfrei - IT TageAlexander Hendorf
Der Vortrag zeigt, dass bei NoSQL auch nicht alles ganz einfach ist und genauso harte Entscheidungen getroffen werden müssen wie bei RDBMS. Anhand eines echten Use Cases werden wir die Unterschiede, Vor- und Nachteile von NoSQL am Beispiel von MongoDB beleuchten.
Trust but verify, they say. If a math-savvy friend did your calculus homework for you, you would do well to have a look at it before you hand it in. Likewise, you want to verify work from third party machines you have no control over. Example: you commissioned TheBigTech (tm) cloud to run a large simulation SIM, whose results you are eager to get recognized for. Issue: you lack the means to rerun and check SIM (after all, that is why you are delegating!). Commissioning more parties may be costly or not a solution. This talk is on how Verifiable Computation (VC)—a mix of theory and systems—solved this problem: the cloud gives us a proof that its work is correct, e.g. that no HW glitch or competitor could have tampered with it. Such a proof is succinct—much more so than the abstract you are reading. You can store it in 100 bytes and verify it in microseconds on a laptop. And VC is secure: a “wrong” proof would pass as good with probability of less than 10^{-35}. I will discuss:
- applications of VC (and its “cryptographic” cousins, zkSNARKs, core of the cryptocurrency ZCash),
- intuitions on how it works,
- resources/APIs for anyone hoping to use VC or learn about it.
This series will follow the development of "Walking Tour", a mobile app that guides users through a given city, feeding the tourist with historical blurbs about the spot in which they currently stand. Users can act as virtual tour guides, uploading their own content to "tag" the location with their own histories. We'll user MongoDB's geo-indexing capabilities to bring the application to life.
Not much. The greatest challenge of our time isn’t competing for affection but for attention. We are bombarded with content everyday, so how can brands stand out and more importantly grow?

It's Not You, It's Me: Three Steps to Winning in the Collaborative EconomyGlug Events
We are moving from a world based on ownership to a world based on access. Uber, the world’s largest taxi company, own no vehicles. Alibaba, the most valuable retailer, has no inventory. Airbnb, the largest accommodation provider, owns no property. People can now get what they need from each other.
But what does this mean for traditional products and services? And how can brands win in the collaborative economy?
Building and Scaling the Internet of Things with MongoDB at Vivint MongoDB
Nicholas Brown, Director of Software Architecture, Vivint
Four years ago Vivint set out to mainstream the Smart Home industry with a new purpose-built platform. Within a year, this platform would need to be ready for the integration of millions of devices. Performance was a must. But, perhaps even more importantly, it would need to offer unprecedented extensibility to meet the needs of a nascent industry with little tolerance for rigidity, still being defined even four years later. MongoDB would provide the backbone of this ground-breaking IoT Platform. Today, we will explore the challenges Vivint faced in design and scale, and what we learned (the hard way) about building an IoT platform. https://www.mongodb.com/
CIS 2015b FIDO U2F in 10 minutes - Dirk BalfanzCloudIDSummit
In just under two-years the FIDO Alliance has produced a pair of specifications for strong authentication that have already been deployed at scale by some of the biggest brands in the world; Universal Authentication Framework (UAF) and Universal 2nd Factor (U2F). Now the Alliance is working on adding additional methods for standards-based strong authentication. Come learn about these protocols and walk away with knowledge on what is available now, what is coming (hint: BLE, NFC, platform optimization), and what it takes to roll out strong authentication across your enterprise and to your customer base.
Closing the Loop in Extended Reality with Kafka Streams and Machine Learning ...confluent
We’ve built a real-time streaming platform that enables prediction based on user behavior, with events occurring in virtual and augmented reality environments. The solution enables organizations to train people in an extended reality environment, where real-life training may be costly and dangerous. Kafka Streams enables analyzing spatial and event data to detect gestural feature and analyze user behavior in real-time to be able to predict any future mistake the user might make. Kafka is the backbone of our real-time analytics and extended reality communication platform with our cluster and applications being deployed on Kubernetes.
In this talk, we will mainly focus on the following: 1. Why Extended Reality with Kafka is a step in the right direction. 2. Architecture & Power of Schema Registry in building a generic platform for pluggable XR apps and analytics models 3. How KSQL and Kafka Streams fits in Kafka Ecosystem to help analyze human motion data and detect features for real-time prediction. 4. Demo of a VR application with real-time analytics feedback, which assists people to be trained in how to work with chemical laboratory equipment.
Cracking JWT tokens: a tale of magic, Node.js and parallel computing - Code E...Luciano Mammino
Learn how you can use some JavaScript/Node.js black magic to crack JWT tokens and impersonate other users or escalate privileges. Just add a pinch of ZeroMQ, a dose of parallel computing, a 4 leaf clover, mix everything applying some brute force and you'll get a powerful JWT cracking potion!

An online training course run by the FIWARE Foundation in conjunction with the i4Trust project. The core part of this virtual training camp (21-24 June 2021) covered all the necessary skills to develop smart solutions powered by FIWARE. It introduces the basis of Digital Twin programming using linked data concepts - JSON-LD and NGSI-LD and combines these with common smart data models for the sharing and augmentation of context data.
In addition, it covers the supplementary FIWARE technologies used to implement the common functions typically required when architecting a complete smart solution: Identity and Access Management (IAM) functions to secure access to digital twin data and functions enabling the interface with IoT and 3rd systems, or the connection with different tools for processing and monitoring current and historical big data.
This 12-hour online training course can be used to obtain a good understanding of FIWARE and NGSI Interfaces and form the basis of studying for the FIWARE expert certification.
Extending this core part, the virtual training camp adds introductory and deep-dive sessions on how FIWARE and iSHARE technologies, brought together under the umbrella of the i4Trust initiative, can be combined to provide the means for the creation of data spaces in which multiple organizations can exchange digital twin data in a trusted and efficient manner, collaborating in the creation of innovative services based on data sharing. In addition, SMEs and Digital Innovation Hubs (DIHs) that go through this complete training and are located in countries eligible under Horizon 2020 will be equipped with the necessary know-how to apply to the recently launched i4Trust Open Call.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.
