Rally Software on Distributed Agile Development
Mark Ringer, VP of Engineering at Rally Software presented on maximizing distributed agile teams
Unleashing the Power of Automated Refactoring with JDT
Refactoring is a series of small steps, each of which changes the program’s internal structure without changing its external behaviour. Refactoring, as a tool, to automate behaviour-preserving transformations to source code are not only very popular in agile development environments, but have been widely established as a cornerstone of the daily software development process, regardless of the methodology being used. Most major development environments such as Eclipse offer a set of powerful refactoring to substantially increase development productivity.
In this live demo, I’ll show
* the real value of refactoring,
* how we practice it safely,
* when and why we refactor,
* the power of refactoring tools and
* when we avoid refactoring.
I’ll be using two real-world examples of refactoring and sharing what I’ve learned about this important practice of the last 15 years.
The Eclipse Way
This talk will explain the secret of the success of the Eclipse Platform team. The Eclipse Way is an agile software development process that we started right at the beginning when we started to develop Eclipse back in 1999. It was and is used by the Eclipse Platform team and got continuously improved over time. During the session you will hear about all our practices, like milestones, early and iterative planning, continuous integration and the endgame. I will also reveal some of the history behind the Eclipse top-level project.

No Silver Bullets in Functional Programming by Brian McKenna
We are constantly presented with trade-offs when writing software. What are the trade-offs when applying functional programming? What costs arise? When is it not worth doing? When should pragmatism kick in and when should we start using side-effects?
This talk will give you some tools to be able to answer the above questions for both functional programming and types. The tools have been refined over many professional years of both doing and not doing purely functional programming.

Functional Programming Conference 2016
For over 35 years, functional programming has been a hot research topic. However in the last 5 years, driven by the need to build massively concurrent systems and to handle big-data, we have experienced a rapid adoption of functional programming concepts by diverse companies, ranging from tech start-ups to financial institutes.
These days, functional programming is at the heart of every, new generation programming technologies. Companies are employing functional programming to enable more effective, robust, and flexible software development. This has given birth to a very vibrant community of functional programmers, who are constantly exploring ways to bring functional programming concepts to the world of enterprise software development.
Functional Conf is designed to bring the growing community of functional programmers together under one roof. At Functional Conf:
participants can understand the fundamentals concepts behind functional programming,
they can learn how others are using functional programming to solve real world problems,
practitioners can meet peers and exchange their experience,
experts can share their expertise on practical usage and gotchas in functional programming concepts.

Organizational Resilience
A resilient organizational can not only adapt and respond to incremental change but more importantly, can respond to sudden disruptions and also, be the source of disruption in order to prosper and flourish.
The traditional risk management approach focuses too much on defensive (stopping bad things happen) thinking versus a more progressive (making good things happen) thinking. Being defensive requires consistency across the organization and this is where methodologies like Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) come in. However, PDCA approach does not bake in the required progressive thinking and flexibility required for a fast company organization which operates in a volatile environment.
Professor David Denyer of Cranfield University has recently published a very interesting research report on Organizational Resilience. He has identified the following four quadrants across to help us think about organizational resilience:
* preventative control (defensive consistency)
* mindful action (defensive flexibility)
* performance optimization (progressive consistency)
* adaptive innovation (progressive flexibility)
In this talk, I'll share my personal experience of using this thinking to help an organization to scale their product to Millions of users. I've dive deep into how we structured our organization for Structural Agility and how we set-up a very lightweight governance model using OKRs to drive the necessary flexible and progressive thinking.

Improving the Quality of Incoming Code
Looking to move to Continuous Delivery? Worried about the quality of your the code? Helping your developers understand clean-code practices and getting the right testing strategy in place can take a while. What should you do to control the quality of the incoming code till then? This talk shares our experience of using PRRiskAdvisor to gradually educate and influence developers to write better code and also help the code reviewer to be more effective at their reviews.
Every time a developer raises a pull-request, PRRiskAdvisor analyzes the files that were changed and publishes a report on the pull request itself with the overall risk associated with this pull request and also risk associated with each file. It also runs static code analysis using SonarQube and publishes the configured violations as comments on the pull request. This way the reviewer just has to look at the pull request to get a decent idea of what it means to review this pull request. If there are too many violations, then PRRiskAdvisor can also automatically reject the pull request.
By doing this, we saw our developers starting paying more attention to clean code practices and hence the overall quality of the incoming code improved, while we worked on putting the right engineering practices and testing strategy in place.

Pilgrim's Progress to the Promised Land by Robert Virding
When migrating to Elixir/OTP from other languages and systems a number of issues will always crop up. The trick is to make sure that these issues don't become problems. This talk will look at some of the more common ones and what to do about them to make sure they don't become problems.

Concurrent languages are Functional by Francesco Cesarini
The functional paradigm has been influencing mainstream languages for decades, making developers more efficient whilst helping reduce software maintenance costs. As we are faced with a programming model that needs to scale on multi-core architectures, concurrency becomes critical. In these concurrency models, the functional programming paradigm will become even more evident. To quote Simon Peyton Jones, future concurrent languages will be functional; they might not be called functional, but the features will be.
Using his 20 years of programming and teaching Erlang/OTP, Francesco will walk through the functional programming features that make implementations of the actor model viable in the Erlang ecosystem. These are features we might take for granted or do not think about, but have laid the foundation of multi-core and distributed programming, influencing programming languages, old and new.

Erlang from behing the trenches by Francesco Cesarini
Erlang is a programming language designed for the Internet Age, although it pre-dates the Web. It is a language designed for multi-core computers, although it pre-dates them too. It is a “beacon language”, to quote Haskell guru Simon Peyton-Jones, in that it more clearly than any other language demonstrates the benefits of concurrency-oriented programming. In this talk, I will introduce Erlang from behind the trenches. By introducing the major language constructs, describe their benefits and discuss the problems Erlang is ideal to solve. I will be doing so from a personal prospective, with anecdotes from my time as an intern at the Ericsson computer science lab at a time when the language was being heavily influenced and later when working on the OTP R1 release.

Setting up Continuous Delivery Culture for a Large Scale Mobile App
Hike is a mobile-first, messaging platform that is used by 100 million users to exchange 40 billion messages/month. Hike app is available on Android, iOS and Windows phone. On the back-end, we’ve 100+ macro-services in Java, Python, Ruby, Go and Elixir. While setting up a Continuous Delivery pipeline, we ran into a series of technical challenges. However it was more important to address the organisational/behavioural challenges to ensure a sustainable culture shift in the company.
In this talk, I cover how we went about:
* Setup a trunk-based development model
* Decentralised our build & test environments using Docker and Jenkins
* Segregated and containerised our macro-services
* Refactored the mobile apps to be more container friendly
* Setup a mobile device farm using STF
* Improved the quality of code-reviews using PRBuilder & PRRiskAdvisor
* Created different kinds of automated tests to align with our CI Pipeline and get rapid feedback
* Finally how we used C3 to visualise the health of our code-base
Towards FutureOps: Stable, Repeatable environments from Dev to Prod
Modern human history is a story of humans inventing new tools to do more with less. "Doing more" has allowed most of us to no longer worry about producing our own food, collecting water, planning long journeys, etc. Instead, we’re able to specialize, buy what we need for less, and to some extent explore ourselves a lot more.
We're far from done, and of course humanity is far from perfect. In this talk, Mitchell Hashimoto discusses the role that automations and computers play in building a brighter future.

Value Driven Development by Dave Thomas
Agile, OOP... are like good hygiene in the kitchen, it results in meals with consistent quality and predictable prep and service times. It doesn't result in great meals nor substantially impact the ROI! Lean Thinking clearly shows that the only way to make a significant impact is to improve the value chain by improving flow. If everyone is following best practices no one has competitive advantage. Major improvements in the value chain depend on continued disruptive innovations. Innovations leverage people and their ideas. We use case studies to illustrate the different business and technical innovations and their impact. We conclude with a discussion of how to build and leverage an innovation culture versus a sprint death march when dealing with high value time to market projects.

MVP Design Hacks
A successful startup/product company needs to master the art of validating early product ideas quickly and effectively. Whether you are building a product, service or a new feature, the two most important questions to find out early are:
* are we solving the right problem?
* if yes, how do we pitch the idea to the target customer to generate a favourable action?
During this session, we'll focus on various safe-fail experimentation techniques used by Lean Startups for quickly identifying and validating the customer's value hypothesis, without having to build the real product. You will leave this session equipped with various MVP design techniques, that will allow you to rapidly discover a viable product/service that delights your customers, without spending a lot of time and effort.
Traditionally, entrepreneurs believed that the only way to test their product/service hypothesis was to build the best-in-class product/service in that category, launch it, and then pray. Most often, products/services fail, not because they cannot be built or delivered. But because, they lack the market-fitment and customer appeal.
To avoid these risks, these days startups are focusing on building a "Minimum Viable Product" (MVP), a product that includes just enough core features to allow useful feedback from early adopters. This reduces the time to market and allows the company to build subsequent customer-driven versions of the product. Hence mitigating the likelihood of wasting time on features that nobody wants. MVPs are typically deployed to a subset of customers, such as early adopters that are more forgiving, more likely to give valuable feedback.
However the problem with MVPs is that companies still spend too much time building stuff and very little time learning. Don't forget the purpose of MVP is validated learning NOT building. This session will give you ideas on how to quickly formulate and test your value and growth hypothesis in a scientific framework using extremely cheap MVP techniques collectively referred to as MVP Design Hacks.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

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.
