The Initiative for Open Authentication (OATH) is a group working to promote strong authentication solutions without passwords. It has created open standards like HOTP, TOTP, and OCRA, and certifies compatible products. OATH seeks to reduce fraud by establishing interoperable strong authentication methods across devices and networks through its reference architecture and standards.
Nonverbal communication such as smiling, open posture, forward leaning, touching, eye contact, and nodding can make communication more effective. It is important to be aware of one's body language in interactions as gestures, facial expressions, and eye contact can reveal a person's emotions and intentions. Strictly speaking, between 60 to 80% of messages are communicated through body language rather than words. Handshakes, arm positions, and leg postures can indicate levels of trust, dominance, submission, anxiety, and attitudes toward the interaction.
The students noticed vandalism at local historic sites and wanted to increase awareness of preserving cultural heritage. Their solution was to:
1. Take an oath themselves to protect heritage and administer it to 500 other students.
2. Organize a cleanup of a historic temple site with other student volunteers.
3. Perform a dance and distribute pamphlets at another temple, reaching over 1,000 people.
Their efforts raised awareness among other students and the public, and received media coverage in a local newspaper.
Engineering Code of Ethics calls on engineers to hold paramount public safety. After Hurricane Katrina, an engineering failure analysis found numerous issues with the New Orleans levee system design and construction that led to catastrophic failures during the storm. Over 50 levee breaches occurred due to issues like inadequate design for expected storm surge, construction that did not meet design standards, lack of resilience for potential failures, and uncoordinated transitions between different jurisdictional entities. While thousands died in New Orleans, later storms saw improved evacuation and no levee failures due to applying the lessons learned - prioritizing public safety, embracing system resilience, better engineering practices, and coordination between agencies.
1. Engineering projects can be considered a form of social experimentation due to their innovative nature and potential unintended consequences. This results in uncertainty and risks for various stakeholders.
2. Engineers have a responsibility to monitor projects for risks, provide information to allow stakeholders to make informed decisions, and accept accountability for project outcomes.
3. Ethical codes can provide guidance for engineers and help balance responsibilities to stakeholders, but challenges remain with issues like diffusion of accountability in large organizations.
The document discusses three professional societies:
1) NSPE (National Society of Professional Engineers) which publishes a code of ethics for engineers consisting of fundamental cannons, rules of practice, and professional obligations.
2) ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) which is the world's largest computing society and sponsors many conferences and special interest groups. Its code of conduct has four sections outlining ethical considerations and professional responsibilities.
3) IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) which is a large international professional association for electronic engineering and electrical engineering.
The document discusses preparing schools and education technology for crises and disasters. It provides examples of typical crises responses and recovery plans. It emphasizes identifying essential services, staff, equipment and processes, and having plans for remote learning, communication, and continuity of operations. Checklists are provided to help assess preparedness and resources are shared for developing effective response and recovery strategies.

DevOpsDays Silicon Valley 2014 - The Game of OperationsRandy Shoup
Operating online games is fun and challenging. Games are some of the spikiest workloads around, and real-time really means *real-time*. Randy shares many of the DevOps techniques his team has put into practice at KIXEYE: Cloud infrastructure, Service teams, and DevOps Culture. He talks about elastic workloads, micro-services, configuration automation, and a common service "chassis". He further discusses the organizational and technical disciplines of team autonomy, internal vendor-customer relationships, and, of course, "you build it, you run it"!
The document discusses the law enforcement oath of honor. It emphasizes that standards should be high for sworn officers who are given power, authority, and responsibility. Officers should willingly accept the responsibility to be role models of ethical behavior. The oath of honor states that officers will never betray their profession, integrity, character, or the public trust, and will always have courage to hold themselves and others accountable for their actions.
The Importance of Culture: Building and Sustaining Effective Engineering Org...Randy Shoup
Randy is a 25-year veteran of Silicon Valley, having led engineering organizations at eBay, Google, Oracle, and a number of other companies. Through the lens of his personal experience from hands-on engineer to architect to CTO, at organizations ranging from tiny startups to global giants, Randy will discuss several important aspects of engineering cultures, which both support and hinder the ability to innovate: hiring and retention, ownership and collaboration, quality and discipline, and learning and experimentation.
Randy will suggest some learnings about what has worked well -- and what has not -- in creating and sustaining an effective engineering culture. He will further offer some concrete suggestions on how other organizations -- both large and small -- can evolve their cultures as well.
Law enforcement is a service career that offers new challenges and opportunities. Agencies include federal, state, local, tribal, and special jurisdictions. Jobs can be sworn officer positions like patrol, investigations, or SWAT that carry guns and arrest powers, or civilian roles like crime prevention or analysis. Becoming an officer requires problem solving skills, multi-tasking ability, empathy, courage, and meeting basic requirements like citizenship, age, education, license, and fitness. The process involves application, testing, background check, drug screening, medical evaluation, polygraph, and interview. Training is through an academy and field experience.

SE_Lec 05_System Modelling and Context ModelAmr E. Mohamed
System modeling is the process of developing abstract models of a system using graphical notations like the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to represent different views of a system. Models help analysts understand system functionality and communicate with customers. Models of existing and new systems are used during requirements engineering to clarify current systems, discuss strengths/weaknesses, and explain proposed requirements.
This document outlines principles of professional ethics for software engineers. It discusses responsibilities like confidentiality, competence, intellectual property rights, and avoiding computer misuse. The document also presents eight principles for public interest, product quality, professional judgment, responsibilities to clients/employers, management duties, colleagues, and lifelong learning. Software engineers are expected to adhere to these ethical guidelines in their work.
This document discusses ethics in engineering and highlights a case study involving an ammonia hose company. It defines ethics as rules governing conduct within a profession. The case study describes how the company used an untested material in their hoses that degraded over time, leading to failures and injuries. This raised issues of the engineers' accountability and whether risks were properly assessed and monitored. The document recommends engineers follow codes of ethics and integrate ethical decision making into their work.
This document discusses the internal and external responsibilities of engineers. Internally, engineers have responsibilities to their employers which include collegiality, loyalty, respect for authority, and collective bargaining. Collegiality involves respecting colleagues' work and moral commitments. Loyalty includes fulfilling contractual duties and identifying with an organization's goals. Respect for authority means complying with those given power over tasks. Collective bargaining is negotiation between employers and employee representatives. Externally, engineers have responsibilities to the public, including maintaining confidentiality, avoiding conflicts of interest, and not committing occupational crimes like price fixing or endangering lives.
This document discusses professional ethics for engineers. It defines ethics as systematizing concepts of right and wrong conduct. Professional ethics concerns the moral issues that arise from professionals' specialized knowledge and how it should be governed when providing services. The five main ethical principles for engineers are: respecting autonomy, doing no harm, benefiting others, being just, and being faithful. The document also discusses typical ethical issues engineers face, the engineering code of ethics, examples of engineering disasters caused by unethical decisions, and the golden rule of treating others as you wish to be treated.

Professional Code of Ethics in Software EngineeringLemi Orhan Ergin
The document discusses the differences between craftsmanship and engineering in software development. It argues that software engineering is an idea whose time has come and gone, and that software development is more experimental in nature. The focus should be on software conception rather than strict engineering approaches, as control is ultimately illusory in software projects.
This presentation discusses the role and responsibilities of engineers in society. It explores definitions of engineering as applying scientific knowledge to meet societal needs and connect science to society. As such, engineers have a social responsibility to consider the impacts and consequences of their work on public safety, well-being, and the environment. The presentation outlines various ways engineers can demonstrate this responsibility through their work and advocacy.
The document discusses engineering ethics and responsibilities to employers. It covers topics like organizational culture, dimensions of culture, managerial ethos, virtues like collegiality and loyalty. It emphasizes that engineers have dual responsibilities - to their employer as well as to the public. Professional responsibilities to ensure safety and welfare of the public should take precedence over loyalty to employers if there is a conflict. Identification loyalty to employers is desirable only if they treat employees fairly and as partners in progress.
