This presentation discusses the main causes of global warming. The four main greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and CFCs. These gases trap heat in the atmosphere. The major sources of carbon dioxide are power plants burning fossil fuels and vehicles. Methane comes from sources such as rice farming, cattle, and fossil fuel production. Nitrous oxide emissions result from fertilizer use, cars, and burning organic matter. CFCs are emitted by refrigerators, air conditioners, and spray products. Carbon dioxide accounts for 60% of greenhouse gases, while methane contributes 20% and nitrous oxide contributes 6%.

Carbon footprint
Carbon footprint is defined as the total greenhouse gases produced directly and indirectly to support human activities, usually expressed as tons of carbon dioxide equivalent. The principal greenhouse gases from human activities are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and fluorinated gases. Direct emissions are from manufacturing and transportation, while indirect emissions include other upstream and downstream activities. The average American carbon footprint is 28 tons per year, while the global average is 6 tons per year. Manufacturing a new car results in a carbon footprint that is comparable to the footprint from driving that car over its lifetime. Using a cell phone for calls and data results in 82 kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalent over 2 years. Ways to reduce one's carbon footprint include using transportation

This document discusses carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from various perspectives. It provides global CO2 emission data over time, breakdowns of emissions by region, country, fuel type, and sector. It also discusses ways that CO2 can potentially be utilized, including in chemicals, fuels, enhanced oil recovery, concrete, algae fuels, and more. The costs and potential scale of these CO2 utilization methods vary widely.
Europe carbon-emissions-trading
This document discusses carbon emissions trading in the EU and alternatives like a carbon tax. It covers:
1) The EU Emissions Trading Scheme which creates a market for carbon allowances in an effort to reduce emissions cost-effectively. However, the scheme has faced criticisms like over-allocation of quotas and price volatility.
2) A potential alternative of a carbon tax which would directly price carbon and provide incentives for emission reductions, but faces challenges in agreement and measuring emissions accurately.
3) Key considerations in evaluating different policy approaches include their effectiveness in changing behavior, encouraging innovation, reducing emissions at lowest cost, and achieving global participation. Putting an accurate price on carbon is necessary but not sufficient.

Anderson 7482
The document examines the potential for reducing carbon dioxide emissions through the use of high volume fly ash cement. It finds that full utilization of fly ash today could achieve reductions of 10-36% but would not be enough to meet reduction targets of 30% by 2020 and 50% by 2050. Alternative cementitious materials beyond fly ash will be needed to achieve sustainability in the cement industry. The location of increased cement demand aligns with areas of increasing coal production, providing opportunities for greater fly ash use.

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.

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).

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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

- 4. Main Cause of Global Warming:
- 5. Main greenhouse gases: Carbon Nitrous Methane C.F.C Dioxide Oxide
- 6. • The major source of CO2 is the power plants. These power plants emit large amount of CO2 produced from burning of fossil fuels for the Carbon purpose of electricity generation. About 20% of CO2 emitted in the Dioxide atmosphere comes from burning of gasoline of the vehicles. • Methane (CH4) is 20 times as effectual as CO2 at entrapping heat in the atmosphere. Methane is obtained from resources such as rice Methane paddies, bovine flatulence, bacteria in bogs and fossil fuel manufacture. • The main sources of Nitrous Oxide (N20) include nylon and nitric acid production, cars with catalytic converters, the use of fertilizers in Nitrous agriculture and the burning of organic matter. Oxide • The main sources of CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) are use of refrigerators, air conditioners and the production of spray and foam. CFC
