Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Transmission media
1. BY KINISH KUMAR(www
.kinishcybersec.blogspot.in)
http://www.facebook.com/kinishkumar
2. Transmission media
Transmission media
are located below the
physical layer
Computers use signals
to represent data.
Signals are ransmitted
in form of
electromagnetic
energy.
6. GUIDED MEDIA
Guided media, which are those that provide a conduit
from one device to another, include twisted-pair cable,
coaxial cable, and fiber-optic cable.
7. Overview
The transmission media that are used to convey information can be
classified as guided or unguided. Guided media provide a physical
path along which the signals are propagated; these include twisted
pair, coaxial cable, and optical fiber. Unguided media employ an
antenna for transmitting through air, vacuum, or water.
The characteristics and quality of a data transmission are determined
both by the characteristics of the medium and the characteristics of
the signal. In the case of guided media, the medium itself is more
important in determining the limitations of transmission.
For unguided media, the bandwidth of the signal produced by the
transmitting antenna is more important than the medium in
determining transmission characteristics. One key property of signals
transmitted by antenna is directionality. In general, signals at lower
frequencies are omnidirectional; that is, the signal propagates in all
directions from the antenna. At higher frequencies, it is possible to
focus the signal into a directional beam. In considering the design of
data transmission systems, key concerns are data rate and distance:
the greater the data rate and distance the better.
8. Data Rate and Bandwidth
Any transmission system has a limited band of
frequencies
This limits the data rate that can be carried
9. Design Factors
Bandwidth
higher bandwidth gives higher data rate
Transmission impairments
eg. attenuation
Interference
Number of receivers in guided media
more receivers introduces more attenuation
12. Twisted pair
One of the wires carries signal, the other is used only as a ground
reference.
The receiver uses the difference b/w the two levels.
Twisting increases the probability that both wires are effected by
the noise in the same manner, thus the difference at the receiver
remains same.
Therefore, number of twists per unit length determines the
quality of the cable.
13. Twisted Pair - Transmission
Characteristics
analog
needs amplifiers every 5km to 6km
digital
can use either analog or digital signals
needs a repeater every 2-3km
limited distance
limited bandwidth (1MHz)
limited data rate (100MHz)
susceptible to interference and noise
15. Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
Ordinary telephone
wire
Cheapest
Easiest to install
Suffers from external
EM interference
16. Shielded Twisted Pair (STP)
Metal braid or
sheathing that reduces
interference
More expensive
Harder to handle
(thick, heavy)
17. Near End Crosstalk
coupling of signal from one pair to another
occurs when transmit signal entering the link couples
back to receiving pair
ie. near transmitted signal is picked up by near
receiving pair
26. Coaxial cable
Inner conductor is a
solid wire outer
conductor serves both
as a shield
against noise and a
second conductor
27. Coaxial Cable Applications
Most versatile medium
Television distribution
Long distance telephone transmission
Can carry 10,000 voice calls simultaneously
Short distance computer systems links
Local area networks
28. Coaxial Cable - Transmission
Characteristics
superior frequency characteristics to TP
performance limited by attenuation & noise
analog signals
amplifiers every few km
closer if higher frequency
up to 500MHz
digital signals
repeater every 1km
closer for higher data rates
29. Guided Media – Coaxial Cable
Categories of coaxial cables
31. BNC connectors
BNC = Bayone-Neill-
Concelman
BNC Connector is used to
connect the end of the
cable to a device
BNC T is used in networks
to branch out a cable for
connection to a computer
or other device
BNC Terminator is used at
the end of the cable to
prevent the reflection of
signal.
33. Guided Media – Coaxial Cable
Applications:
Analog telephone networks
Cable TV networks
Traditional Ethernet LAN – 10Base2,
10Base5
34. Guided Media – Fiber-Optic Cable
Fiber-optic cable transmit signals in the form of light.
Bending of light ray
35. Bending of light ray
Angle of Incidence (I): the angle the ray makes
with the line perpendicular to the interface
between the two substances
Critical Angle: the angle of incidence which
provides an angle of refraction of 90-degrees.
37. Optical fiber
Uses reflection to
guide light through a
channel
Core is of glass or
plastic surrounded by
Cladding
Cladding is of less
dense glass or plastic
39. Optical Fiber - Benefits
greater capacity
data rates of hundreds of Gbps
smaller size & weight
lower attenuation
electromagnetic isolation
greater repeater spacing
10s of km at least
40. Optical Fiber - Benefits
The following characteristics distinguish optical fiber from twisted pair or coaxial cable:
Greater capacity: The potential bandwidth, and hence data rate, of optical fiber is
immense; data rates of hundreds of Gbps over tens of kilometers have been
demonstrated. Compare this to the practical maximum of hundreds of Mbps over
about 1 km for coaxial cable and just a few Mbps over 1 km or up to 100 Mbps to 10
Gbps over a few tens of meters for twisted pair.
Smaller size and lighter weight: Optical fibers are considerably thinner than coaxial
cable or bundled twisted-pair cable. For cramped conduits in buildings and
underground along public rights-of-way, the advantage of small size is considerable.
The corresponding reduction in weight reduces structural support requirements.
Lower attenuation: Attenuation is significantly lower for optical fiber than for coaxial
cable or twisted pair, and is constant over a wide range.
Electromagnetic isolation: Optical fiber systems are not affected by external
electromagnetic fields. Thus the system is not vulnerable to interference, impulse
noise, or crosstalk. By the same token, fibers do not radiate energy, so there is little
interference with other equipment and there is a high degree of security from
eavesdropping. In addition, fiber is inherently difficult to tap.
Greater repeater spacing: Fewer repeaters mean lower cost and fewer sources of
error. The performance of optical fiber systems from this point of view has been
steadily improving. Repeater spacing in the tens of kilometers for optical fiber is
common, and repeater spacings of hundreds of kilometers have been demonstrated.
41. Optical Fiber - Transmission
Characteristics
uses total internal reflection to transmit light
effectively acts as wave guide for 1014 to 1015 Hz
can use several different light sources
Light Emitting Diode (LED)
cheaper, wider operating temp range, lasts longer
Injection Laser Diode (ILD)
more efficient, has greater data rate
relation of wavelength, type & data rate
51. Wireless Transmission Frequencies

are used for multicasts
communications, such as radio and
television, and paging system.
57. Terrestrial Microwave

and short point-to-point links
requires fewer repeaters but line of sight
use a parabolic dish to focus a narrow beam onto a
receiver antenna
1-40GHz frequencies
higher frequencies give higher data rates
main source of loss is attenuation
distance, rainfall
also interference
58. Unguided Media – Microwaves

Used for short-range communication in a
closed area using line-of-sight propagation.
61. Infrared

62. Antennas
electrical conductor used to radiate or collect
electromagnetic energy
transmission antenna
radio frequency energy from transmitter
converted to electromagnetic energy byy antenna
radiated into surrounding environment
reception antenna
electromagnetic energy impinging on antenna
converted to radio frequency electrical energy

radiates in all directions equally
with a spherical radiation pattern
64. Antenna Gain
measure of directionality of antenna
power output in particular direction verses that
produced by an isotropic antenna
