Introducing the world's first token engineering framework
Presentation by Aron van Ammers, Outlier Ventures, CTO and Founding Partner
Outlier Ventures launches their report into the 3 D's of Token Design. Aron shares the insights, methodologies and mechanisms pioneered by his dedicated cryptoeconomics team and a global community of peers based on their direct experience designing of a number of high profile token ecosystems.
How can we bring together the capital, compute power, data, people, their assets and their digital representatives at scale, to decentralise the web? He explains the skills and competencies required such as economics, game theory, machine learning and systems design to realize sustainable digital economies that allow the coordination of open source distributed networks of resources.

SocioTechnical Systems: Engineering & Analysis
This document discusses socio-technical systems engineering and analysis. It describes creating interconnected communities of autonomous local actors enabled by technology that allow for global coordination. Proper design and testing of economic systems requires interdisciplinary skills and understanding how to synthesize systems through engineering design and analyze them through empirical testing. Blockchains can serve as sensors and smart contracts as actuators, allowing decentralized coordination similar to multi-agent robotics. Engineering systems raises responsibility to consider fairness, ethics, safety, and how individuals and societies experience risk differently.
Technology and social movements
The document discusses emerging technologies and their potential role in social movements. It outlines how technological transformations like increased connectivity and computing power, combined with societal shifts, may be reaching a tipping point. New collaboration platforms could harness these forces, scaling mass collaboration to millions of people. Specific projects mentioned include Open Project Infrastructure to match collaborators through metadata, and an ecosystem rollout approach across issues like climate change and local foods. Current projects under development include Isofractal, a "cloud operating system" for mass collaboration, and PartyX, aiming to develop new collaborative decision-making models and movement building. Crowdsourcing is presented as a way to fund high-risk social change work without traditional institutional funding.
Service centricity in public sector
Lecture notes for a brief speech on how to develop electronic services in public sector. The contents is 2/3 theory and 1/3 practical advice.
Value Encounters by Hans Weigand
The document discusses value encounters and extensions to the e3-value business model. It proposes that value is co-created through interactions between actors in "value encounters" where resources are combined. Value encounters can be connected through causal relationships where one encounter reinforces another. It also outlines dimensions for analyzing value encounters, including financial, operational, knowledge, and social considerations. The conclusion advocates extending e3-value with the concept of value encounters and developing more network analysis methods to better capture co-creation of value.
Cryptography and trust
Digital government depends on trust between parties, which can be enabled through cryptography and identification mechanisms. However, cryptography must itself be trustworthy to establish trust, as technology is difficult to control and math implementations get weaker over time. Trust is also fragile and important for digital ecosystems that span borders. To fully realize digital government's benefits, systems must balance tactical gains with strategic consequences like maintaining long-term trust.

Technology determinism
Four alternatives perspectives on relationship between technology and learning proposed by Martin Oliver
Blockchain For Science at NFAIS Blockchain for Scientific publishing conference
This document discusses the current status and potential future of blockchain and cryptoeconomics in science. It begins by defining blockchain as a distributed, decentralized, and immutable way to organize online services and records in a transparent manner without a central authority. It then discusses how blockchain could transform how scientific research is conducted by making the research process more open, transparent, and incentivized through cryptoeconomic mechanisms like tokens and smart contracts. Some specific areas discussed include storing and timestamping research data immutably on blockchain, processing data through smart contracts, decentralized peer review and publication, and new forms of decentralized research funding like initial coin offerings. However, challenges are also noted around technical implementation, governance, and addressing real issues of control over

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
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.

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).

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:
