The document discusses porting the VisIVO visualization tool to desktop grids and international projects like EGI-Inspire and EDGI in order to enable exploration of very large astrophysical datasets using grid infrastructures. It provides details on VisIVO's capabilities for 3D rendering and filtering of multidimensional data, as well as its deployment on grids through server, viewer, and web portal components. The goal is to create a production-level VisIVO solution on EDGI that supports typical exploration scenarios on large astrophysical datasets.
Public relations has existed in Arab countries since ancient times, originally used by pharaohs to influence citizens. Modern Arab PR was influenced first by ancient Greek techniques and later by Western models. Today, Arab PR is one of the fastest growing markets globally, though understandings of PR differ and it is still seen as a tool for propaganda. Challenges include addressing stereotypes from 9/11 and marketing an accurate image of Arab culture while navigating complicated relations with the West.

Abstract:
A research team that wants to validate a new IoT solution has to implement a testbed. It is a complex step
since it must provide a realistic environment, and this may require skills that are not present in the team. This
paper explores the requirements of an IoT testbed and proposes an open-source solution based on low-cost
and widely available components and technologies. The testbed implements an architecture consisting of a
collector managing several edge devices. Security levels and duty-cycle are tunable depending on the specific
application. After analyzing the testbed requirements, the paper illustrates a template that uses WiFi for the
link layer, HTTPS for structured communication, an ESP8266 board for edge units, and a RaspberryPi for the
collector.

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:

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.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
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. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
