RISC-V growth and successes in technology and industry - embedded world 2021RISC-V International
RISC-V International has more than 1,000 members across over 50 countries who are working in hardware, software, services, and various industries for a strong and healthy RISC-V ecosystem. It is projected that by 2025 there will be over 62 billion RISC-V CPU cores and the total market for RISC-V IP and software is expected to grow to over $1b by 2025.
In 2020 alone, we saw successes with newly defined RISC-V accelerator architectures, affordable RISC-V open source small-board computers, development boards for personal computers, and an incredibly fast 64-bit RISC-V Core as the community also ratified key specifications and made advances in security.
As we see the growth of RISC-V into industries such as AI, machine learning, blockchain, 5G, medical, and industrial, we will see the ratifications of new extensions that enable this growth.

UAVs are a disruptive technology bringing new geographic data and information to many application domains. UASs are similar to other geographic imagery systems so existing frameworks are applicable. But the diversity of UAVs as platforms along with the diversity of available sensors are presenting challenges in the processing and creation of geospatial products. Efficient processing and dissemination of the data is achieved using software and systems that implement open standards. The challenges identified point to the need for use of existing standards and extending standards. Results from the use of the OGC Sensor Web Enablement set of standards are presented. Next steps in the progress of UAVs and UASs may follow the path of open data, open source and open standards.

A critical step towards smarter and safer cities is to endow them with the abilities to massively gather a wide variety of data sets and to automatically feed those data to decision support tools and applications that leverage artificial intelligence. This involves sensing, communication and networking infrastructure, as well as services, which we currently call Internet of Things. We use examples from the Porto Living Lab infrastructure, specifically UrbanSense and SenseMyCity, to illustrate communication technologies available to collect and share the data, how to use opportunistic communication, and how to address interoperability.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
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.

11. Medical imaging use case
• Real-Time X-Ray imaging for surgery
• Reduce radiation dose by 75%
• Add noise removal processing with critical
real-time constraints
13. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) use case
• Performs real-time stereo depth estimation to do obstacle /
collision avoidance (for an UAV), i.e. to detect obstacles in
direction of flight
• Based on dual cameras

19. Guidelines
Advice: Exploit both vectorization and multithreading for high performance on multicore
processors with vector units such as the ARM Cortex A9. On these architectures, utilizing all
hardware execution resources is key to achieve high performance [2] [4, 5].
Recommended implementation method: Use OpenMP. OpenMP is a widely supported parallel
programming API that enables programmers to express vectorization and multithreading
operations concisely using compiler directives. Programmers need not worry about specifying
scheduling and synchronization operations in code. These are handled transparently by the
OpenMP runtime system. See the official OpenMP examples[6] to understand in more detail
about exploiting vectorization and multithreading simultaneously.
