Virtualization provides abstractions that allow simulating hardware, interfaces, time, and people in software. It enables testing systems in ways that would be impossible in physical hardware due to limitations of speed, size, or improbable timing. Virtualization is useful for testing as it allows creating scenarios that are difficult to test for in real systems.

Kinect Sensors as Natural User Interfaces
The document discusses the capabilities of the Kinect sensor as a natural user interface. It describes how the Kinect uses an infrared and color camera to track up to 6 users, detecting 25 joints per user. It can track hand gestures like swipes or zooms, as well as faces to generate 3D models with head position and rotation. The Kinect also has a microphone array for speech recognition in multiple languages. It provides full-body motion capture abilities and improved specifications in the Kinect v2 compared to the original Kinect v1 model.

Tags strategy
- Brand tags play an important role in informing consumers about product details, promoting the brand identity, and describing the identity of the person wearing the product.
- Ingredient brand tags improve the host product's image, add missing values, and create differentiation for the host brand by bringing the core technology story and values directly to customers.
- A case study on Lycra tags shows that each tag brings the technology story alive, helps differentiate product ranges, and allows consumers to distinguish categories when deciding what to purchase.

Devops down-under
The document summarizes the speaker's experience with developing and improving the architecture for a Ruby on Rails application hosted on a customer's VMware infrastructure. It describes initial flaws with logging and database issues. It then discusses efforts to improve the architecture using tools like Chef but facing challenges, and moving to a model of customizing VMs using Capistrano scripts. Key lessons learned include the importance of monitoring performance, being aware of virtualization impacts, and hiring strong technical staff.

Dev Environments: The Next Generation
Development environments are a necessary part of every developer's workflow. They can also be a great source of friction. What may begin as simply running python my_app.py eventually bloats as you add more apps, more databases, more testing frameworks, and more developers. We'll talk about the evolution of a typical development environment, how it lets us down, and how we try to make it better. We'll end with an introduction to Dusty, a new tool which uses Docker containers to take our development environments to the next level.

Building an Open Source iOS app: lessons learned
Dec 12, 2016, Hacker Dojo (Santa Clara), 6pm
In this talk I'm going to talk about lessons learned from building Sensorama (http://www.sensorama.org), an Open Source sensor platform for data science. The main theme of the talk will be Open Source: what is great about it, what is bad and how you must become a part of the Open Source community to really move quickly and benefit from it. For this project, I did both the code and the design, so you'll have a chance to see how solo-developer deals with time/feature constraints, which tools I've used and what my approach towards development in this mode is. In other words: I'll tell you what I did to stay sane. If the iOS development were a walk in a dark city park, this talk may turn out to be your flashlight.

USE OF CLOUD - COMPUTING AND SOCIAL MEDIA TO DETERMINE BOX OFFICE PERFORMANCE
This paper proposes methods to determine the box office performance of movies using cloud computing and social media. It introduces the UIB algorithm which uses IMDB via a web browser to lookup performance but requires significant time. The AAF algorithm leverages social networks like Facebook by posting status updates but provides lower accuracy. A hybrid AAFtUIB approach is presented that asks friends to use IMDB, providing high accuracy with minimal effort. The paper also discusses implementing the algorithms and relates them to prior work.
Data representation in a computer
This document discusses how computers represent different types of data using binary numbers. It explains that all data inside a computer is stored as binary digits (bits) that represent ON and OFF switches. Various data types like characters, pictures, sound, programs and integers are represented by grouping bits into bytes. The context determines how a computer interprets each byte. Standards like ASCII, JPEG and WAV define how different data is encoded into binary format and bytes. The document also covers number systems like binary, decimal, hexadecimal and their properties.
IoT Houston Cloud and Cluster
The document discusses the Internet of Things (IoT) and provides context around the term. It argues that IoT is a marketing term that does not accurately describe connected devices. The key components of an IoT device are then outlined as a processor, storage, input/output capabilities, communications, and a power source. Popular processor and development options are listed. The document proposes some example IoT projects and provides basic parts and software needed. It encourages the reader to get started on a project.
5 - Networking
The document provides a high-level overview of networking concepts for public libraries, including wired and wireless networking. It discusses Ethernet local area networks using twisted pair cabling of different categories (Cat 5, Cat 5e, etc.) to connect computers to a switch. It also covers wireless networking standards like 802.11b, 802.11g, and how wireless networks connect via access points to the wired network infrastructure. The document aims to explain core networking concepts in simple terms while acknowledging more details are omitted.
Linux Sucks
The document discusses issues with desktop Linux and proposes solutions. It argues that Linux has problems with audio, hardware support, packaging differences across distributions, and a lack of professional multimedia editing tools. It states that large, complex software like video editors require significant funding to develop properly but current open source models have failed to provide adequate funding. It proposes that Linux distributions and companies should help fund important projects through donations, software stores, and promoting commercial options to encourage further software development for Linux.
Building Droids with JavaScript
JavaScript is finding its way further and further out of the browser. Only a couple of years ago, if someone had said they wanted to build robots only using JS you'd think they were crazy. Having tried it at the time those naysayers were correct - it was a disaster.
Recently, particularly as a result of the nodebots project, JS Robotics has started to come of age and it's now possible to build simple robots using JavaScript for the majority of the stack - everything from control and sensing to motors to lights, AI and computer vision.
This talk will give an overview of what's currently possible, where the current gotchas are, how to get started and have some interactive elements that can be played with during or after the session.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
