Audio compression can be either lossless, which reduces file size while retaining all audio information, or lossy, which greatly reduces file size but decreases sound quality by losing some audio information. Common lossless formats are AIFF, WAV, and FLAC, while common lossy formats are MP3, AAC, and Vorbis. The quality and size of compressed audio files depends on factors like sample rate, bit depth, bit rate, and number of channels. Higher values for these factors generally mean higher quality audio but larger file sizes.
This document discusses audio compression techniques. It begins by defining audio and compression. There are two main types of audio compression: lossy and lossless. Lossy compression reduces file sizes but results in some quality loss, while lossless compression decompresses the file back to its original quality. Common lossy audio compression methods are discussed, including those based on psychoacoustics involving how humans perceive sound. MPEG layers are then introduced as a standard for audio compression, with Layer I being highest quality but also highest bitrate, and Layer III providing greater compression but still high quality at lower bitrates like 64kbps. Effectiveness is shown to increase with each newer layer.

This results in digital audio files that can be edited, stored and transmitted more easily than analog audio. Popular digital audio file formats include WAV, MP3, MIDI and more. Devices like the iPod and services like iTunes revolutionized portable music and digital music distribution. Technologies like text-to-speech and DAISY have also improved audio accessibility.

Digital audio was created in the late 1960s when Dr. Thomas Stockham began experimenting with digital tape recording using analog to digital converters. The key aspects of digital audio are:
1) Analog audio is converted to digital form through analog to digital conversion which samples the analog signal at regular intervals determined by the sample rate.
2) Higher sample rates and bit depths produce more accurate digital representations of the original analog signal but result in larger file sizes.
3) Quantization error, in the form of quantization noise, occurs when sample values are rounded to binary numbers during digitization and can be reduced by dithering and increasing bit depth.

We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
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:
