Smart Cities - Your library - supporting mobile users in edinburghSmart Cities Project
The Library and Information Services department of the City of Edinburgh Council has been extending its service provision for citizens and engaging with the wider community. This case study shows how
it has made innovative use of services and applications (Apps) for mobile devices. It makes it clear that support for mobile devices is
best seen in the context of a wide-ranging social media and digital communication strategy. This case study covers the relationship with the digital communications service providers and the suppliers of the library management suite. It also considers other content and services available to mobile devices including as eBooks and audio content.
This is one of two case studies showing the different approaches taken by the City of Edinburgh Council (CEC) in developing content and services aimed at users of smartphones and other mobile devices. A complementary case study describes the approach taken by Edinburgh’s Transport department which started by working with the locally owned bus company and a system supplier to deliver information to meet passengers’ needs, initially through bus stop displays and then through a website. This was extended to smartphone users through a cooperative and flexible approach to working with two individuals who had chosen to develop Apps for iPhone and Android phones.

Understanding Interest Rates June 2010WealthEngine
Interest rates refer to the percentage charged or paid for the use of money in a loan or other financial transaction. The Reserve Bank of Australia sets interest rates in Australia to achieve price stability and full employment through monetary policy. It aims to keep inflation between 2-3% annually by adjusting the cash rate, which influences other interest rates set by banks and lenders. Factors like inflation expectations, borrower risk, and global economic conditions also impact interest rate levels.
The document summarizes information about commonly used respiratory system medications including Flonase, Mucomyst, and Ventolin. Flonase is a corticosteroid nasal spray used to reduce swelling and inflammation in the nasal passages. Mucomyst is used to thin mucus in the lungs making breathing easier for conditions like COPD. Ventolin is a bronchodilator inhaler used to treat and prevent bronchospasm in people with asthma or exercise induced breathing problems. All three medications can cause side effects like irritation, nausea, and paradoxical bronchospasm so precautions are outlined.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Instead of relying on traditional, centralized institutions like banks, DeFi leverages blockchain technology to create a decentralized network of financial services. This means that financial transactions can occur directly between parties, without intermediaries, using smart contracts on platforms like Ethereum.
In 2024, we are witnessing an explosion of new DeFi projects and protocols, each pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in finance.
In summary, DeFi in 2024 is not just a trend; it’s a revolution that democratizes finance, enhances security and transparency, and fosters continuous innovation. As we proceed through this presentation, we'll explore the various components and services of DeFi in detail, shedding light on how they are transforming the financial landscape.

In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
