Project management document control software systemDavis Ciprikis
Despite of significant advancement in control software system the adaptation of it in the Irish construction industry has been slow process for using such systems. The problems faced with the use of IT systems is the lack of expertise and knowledge about software that not everyone would be familiar with. As with a large project as this quality assurance procedures would state that there should be one main software system available to the entire project and company so that any time information can be accessed for each party electronically. It is important for my company to increase its productivity and to save the time loss on traditional approaches which as currently are becoming outdated.

Types of Computer Information Systems
There are four basic types of computer-based information Systems:
Transaction Processing Systems (TPS)
Record day-to-day transactions such as customer orders, bills, inventory.
Helps supervisors by generating databases needed for other information Systems.
Examples: recording customer orders, bills, inventory levels, and production output.
Management Information Systems (MIS)
Summarizes the detailed data of the transaction processing system.
Produces standard reports for middle-level managers.
Examples: Production schedule and budget summaries.
Decision Support Systems (DSS)
Draws on the detailed data of the transaction processing system.
Provides a flexible tool for middle-level managers for analysis.
Examples: Analyzing the effects of events such as strikes, rising interest rates, etc.
Executive Support Systems (ESS)
Presents information in a very highly summarized form.
Combines the internal data from TPS and MIS with external data.
Helps top-level managers oversee operations and develop strategic plans.
Examples: Introducing new products, starting a company wide cost control program, etc.
2. Benifits:
1. Enabling better and faster decision making
By delivering relevant information at the time of need through structure, search, subscription,
syndication, and support, a knowledge management environment can provide the basis for
making good decisions. Collaboration brings the power of large numbers, diverse opinions, and
varied experience to bear when decisions need to be made. The reuse of knowledge in
repositories allows decisions be based on actual experience, large sample sizes, and practical
lessons learned.
2. Making it easy to find relevant information and resources
When faced with a need to respond to a customer, solve a problem, analyze trends, assess
markets, benchmark against peers, understand competition, create new offerings, plan strategy,
and to think critically, you typically look for information and resources to support these
activities. If it is easy and fast to find what you need when you need it, you can perform all of
these tasks efficiently.
3. Reusing ideas, documents, and expertise
Once you have developed an effective process, you want to ensure that others use the process
each time a similar requirement arises. If someone has written a document or created a
presentation which addresses a recurring need, it should be used in all future similar situations.
When members of your organization have figured out how to solve a common problem, know
how to deliver a recurring service, or have invented a new product, you want that same solution,
service, and product to be replicated as much as possible. Just as the recycling of materials is
good for the environment, reuse is good for organizations because it minimizes rework, prevents
problems, saves time, and accelerates progress.

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.

Whitepaper Document and Content Management Decision Matrix
1.
2. Executive Summary
The Document and Content Management Decision Matrix was developed by
Silverside to help Business Executives, IT Managers and End Users understand
the broad spectrum of technologies used to manage, share and use business
documents & content – collectively known as ‘Document Sharing’, ‘Document
Collaboration’ and/or ‘Document Management’ solutions.
The Matrix is part educational, part selection tool, used to guide a customer
towards the most appropriate solution area based on (i) the degree of usage or
need and (ii) the degree of central control the organization requires or wants to
exert over its documents and content. Our Matrix contains 4 solution quadrants:
Document Sharing, Document Collaboration, Document Point Solution and
Enterprise Content Management.
Often at the conclusion of an exploratory discussion, a customer will perceive
themselves landing in two or three quadrants, not just a single one. We call this
‘spanning the Matrix’. Silverside recommends two (2) different options to span
the Matrix: (i) Deploy a hybrid model comprising of multiple solutions from each
quadrant or (ii) Pick the Document Management solution that ‘Gets it Right’:
Docova Document Manager.

4. Part I: The Life (and Death) of a Document
Every document has a ‘life’ and ultimately a ‘death’. Factors like regulatory laws,
corporate policies, and the type of content will impact how long that life will be.
Whether a document lives for seven (7) days or beyond seven years, every document
goes through the same four (4) stage lifecycle: Document Creation, Review/Approval,
Release, and Retirement.
Stage I: Document Creation
Everything has a starting point. For a document, this is in the form of either (i) a
Document Draft or (ii) an Electronic Document Capture.
1. Document Draft Creation
The process of developing a new document through new and/or repurposed
content materials. The draft document is created either by an individual or a
group or team of people (“document collaboration”)
2. Document Capture
The process of converting a paper-based document into an electronic replica
Stage II: Review and Approval
Once the Author(s) have created the final document, it might have to be fully vetted
before being authorized (“Approved”) for its intended use. Note: Those documents not
requiring a formal approval, this stage is combined with Stage III.
Stage III: Release
The formally Approved document becomes “Released” – entering a static state in which
no modifications or edits can occur. At this point, the document is placed into a
repository to be accessed and consumed by a broader audience or is advanced to its
intended audience (ie. A proposal sent to a client or an expense claim to be paid).
Stage IV: Retirement
Very few things are timeless. A document enters “Retirement” when it becomes
irrelevant (the information has changed, used for its intended purpose, etc). When
Retired, the document is either (i) retained for future reference (“Archived”) or (ii)
permanently destroyed (“Deleted”).
-4-
5. Part II: The Document and Content Management Decision Matrix Primer
From our numerous conversations with customers, we found many shared the same
confusion and/or misconceptions regarding solutions labeled ‘Document Sharing’,
‘Document Collaboration’ and/or ‘Document Management’. These discussions formed
the foundation of the Document and Content Management Decision Matrix.
The Decision Matrix serves as our discussion tool, guiding customers through the large
spectrum of technologies found in the areas of Document Sharing, Document
Collaboration and Document Management. Whether employing the Matrix with Business
Executives, IT managers, and/or End Users, the tool provides focus; framing the
potential benefits and drawbacks of a particular solution in context of the expected
usage, document lifecycle, IT strategy and end user requirements.
Horizontal Axis: Degree of Usage Specificity
The horizontal axis measures the Degree of the Usage Specificity. Do you need to:
Share files for only one short term event (ie. a project) or really need
to share all files across the organization?
Improve one specific process or would multiple document and
content-driven processes benefit from a repeatable approach?
The more specific or defined the need, the greater likelihood the solution is available ‘out
of the box’.
Vertical Axis: Degree of Central Control
The vertical axis measures the Degree of Central Control.
-5-
6. In other words, the vertical axis measures the extent to which business content or
documents are subjected to regulatory compliance, corporate policies, organizational
‘comfort’ level and/or aligned with business processes.
Not all documents and content need to be treated equal, so they don’t have to be
controlled in the same manner. Some documents must be tightly integrated with
business processes, others have no connection. Some types of content must have one
version of truth, for others it’s not as critical. The preference for control will dictate the
course of action.
Where you land vertically on the Matrix is partially determined by Who should retain
“Administrative” control over the document: The organization (IT Group), End Users or
some mix in-between.
-6-
7. Part III: Mapping to the Decision Matrix
Quadrant I: Document Sharing
“I just want to share some files for my (small) project”
Users just want to quickly share their files. Document Sharing solutions aim to
make it easy for people to share documents within a group. The core functionality
of Sharing solutions focus on the simple sharing of documents.
The solutions are hosted by a 3rd party. Users don’t have to wait for IT to make a
‘decision’; they can instantly start sharing files by just creating an account with
one of the readily available services on the Internet.
-7-
8. Functionality for the Document Lifecycle
Functionality beyond document sharing is either non-existent or very simplistic
and static. This limited functionality makes these solutions ideal for only one
purpose: to share files and documents.
Examples
Google® Docs
LotusLive®
4Shared.com
Benefits:
Instant availability
Cost: Free to very low
End Users can control their own destiny
Drawbacks:
No structure – everyone has their own idea on structuring their ‘information’.
This could become very chaotic very quickly
rd
External ownership of documents. Documents reside on a 3 party server
outside your control, your firewall. You’re dependant on the 3rd party for
security
No warranties / guarantees. Documents get deleted? Too bad. Service goes
down? Tough luck. Backups probably don’t exist
Reliable Internet access required
No IT control, no IT involvement. For documents that carry an inherent
degree of risk, Document Sharing solutions represent a significant amount of
unnecessary risk
Lack of expansion. The platform ‘is what it is’, expansion will not be possible
-8-
9. Quadrant II: Document Collaboration
“We want to roll out Collaboration functionality across the organization. We’re willing to
make the investment”
Organizations who want more than simple sharing are initially attracted to
Document Collaboration solutions.
Going beyond simple sharing, Document Collaboration solutions aim to make it
easier for groups of people to jointly create documents and share them within
their group. The core functionality is focused on driving out the inefficiencies
associated with creating draft documents (Stage One of the document lifecycle).
Functionality for the Document Lifecycle
Functionality and tools are concentrated towards jointly creating documents
within a group or team, with these tools generally easier to use than those
provided with a typical ECM solution. While Collaboration solutions have deeper
functionality than Sharing solutions, common features like version control, check
in/check out, security and workflow are still relatively basic and not at the level of
depth contained within an ECM solution.
Examples
IBM Lotus® Quickr®
Microsoft SharePoint®
TM
EMC Documentum® eRoom
Benefits:
Customizable User Interface. Standards can be set
Designed for ‘Ease to use’
Internal ownership of documents and content
Administrative Control and Insight. Better insight into the usage, control over
storage of the documents, etc
Integration with Business Productivity applications (Microsoft Office, email,
etc)
Broad usage
-9-
10. Drawbacks:
Cost: Requires hardware, software licenses, and general maintenance and
administrative support
End users can control Security and Privileges for documents and content.
Might result in a violation of your corporate policies
Requires specific version of business applications and add-ins
Just because it’s offered and available, doesn’t mean it’ll get used. End users
may need some education on why they should use the solution
Quadrant III: Document Point Solution
“We just need to get a handle on Process X”
Your view or need is narrow: You just want to make Process X more productive.
You want full control over that specific type of document as it relates to a specific
process -- and have no concern for other processes or document types. In other
words, you want the ECM functionality (Quadrant IV) for just one or two
documents or processes. Typical examples include managing incoming invoices,
Quality Management systems, and managing proposals.
Functionality for the Document Lifecycle
Point Solutions are designed to handle the complete lifecycle of a particular type
of document or content as it relates to a particular process. This limits the ability
to extend the same functionality to different documents within the organization.
For Document Creation, some Point Solutions may limit themselves to just
Document Capture functionality.
Examples
BasWare
Square
- 10 -
11. Benefits:
Ready to go ‘right out of the box’: The solution has built-in document
templates to facilitate the specific document type required
“Experience Included”: The vendor has probably already ‘baked in’ the latest
best practices in relation to the process you’re trying to solve
Fast implementation
Pre-calculated Return on Investment (ROI): Based on previous experience,
vendor has a firm idea of the expected ROI. Some vendors may offer a
guaranteed ROI.
Rich Document Management functionality specific to one particular process
Drawbacks:
Limited Customization: If you have a specific requirement not addressed by
the solution, you may be out of luck. Extending beyond the initial application
into other Document Management applications is not possible
Solves only one problem area. Multiple solutions are required for each
problem or challenge
Require Multiple Point Solutions? Each one will have different User Interface.
Users will have to manage multiple profiles, IDs and passwords
Product development is dependant on the vendor’s future vision of the
process or problem area
High entry investment
Quadrant IV: ECM (Full Document and Content Management )
“We want full control over our documents and content, but want to make our people and
processes more productive at the same time …”
The AIIM Association defines Enterprise Content Management (ECM) as “the
strategies, methods and tools used to capture, manage, store, preserve, and
deliver content and documents related to organizational processes1.”
The goal of ECM is to control all aspects of all documents or content within the
organization over its entire lifetime to ensure compliance with corporate policies
and/or regulatory laws. ECM usage can be limited to just a particular process
(see “Document Point Solution” above) or across all the documents, content and
processes within the organization (“Document and Content Management”). True
ECM requires a long term, strategic view for your documents and content, as the
implementation can take several months or years to be truly effective.

- 11 -
12. Functionality for the Document Lifecycle
While spanning the entire document lifecycle, traditional ECM solutions are
perceived to be too difficult, time consuming and/or expensive to use. This has
limited their use during the Document Draft Creation stage. Therefore most ECM
solutions are known for their deep, robust functionality for controlling all aspects
of the document after the Initial Document Creation stage.
Examples
IBM FileNet®
IBM Content Manager®
EMC Documentum®
TM
OpenText eDocs
Alfresco Enterprise Edition
Benefits:
Complete control over your documents and content
One platform, one user experience
Integration opportunities (Business Office Productivity suites, Enterprise
applications, email, etc)
High availability
Highly customizable
Applicable to multiple document types. Reusable across many processes
Drawbacks:
High license costs, long implementation times, and complex to manage
Multiple servers often required
User Interface traditionally not user friendly. Users don’t like using it
Users view some compliance requirements as barriers to getting their job
done
Requires specific expertise to implement and make successful
- 12 -
13. Part IV: The Silverside Advice: Span the Matrix for the Best Results
Business Users like the relative simplicity of a Document Collaboration solution
because of the associated ‘quick start’ and ease of use capability these solutions
possess vs. traditional ECM solutions. Document Point solutions are appealing
because everything is “ready out-of-the-box” and the process headaches can be
solved almost immediately.
In contrast, the ECM solution strongly appeals to the IT group because of the
flexibility to manage multiple document and content types, while offering a
potential for long term savings and better customization vs. leveraging multiple
Document Point solutions.
Most decisions get stuck or delayed, as each stakeholder group weighs in
on which approach is the better choice:
Solve one tactical challenge now
without considering the rest of the organization
or
Invest the time to solve multiple challenges and move the organization
in a more strategic direction with one solution or approach?
Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way. Rather than minimizing the trade offs
with an ‘Either/Or’ decision, the concerns of both groups can be satisfied by
spanning the Matrix quadrants:
1. Combine Document Collaboration with Document Point Solution(s) or
ECM
Under this hybrid model, End Users benefit from a Standardized User
Experience. Adding new ‘functionality’ through different Point Solutions
becomes seamless to the User with a common, standardized
Collaboration interface.
This model becomes challenging when multiple Point Solutions are
involved, because each one must be managed and maintained separately.
The functionality contained in one Point Solution may not be available in
another, thus might create End User conflict (Ie. “I have it for X, I don’t
understand why I can’t have it for Y…”).
2. Pick a Document Management solution void of the traditional ECM
drawbacks: Docova® Document Manager
- 13 -
14. Docova has done an excellent job of addressing the performance gap between
Document Collaboration and ECM solutions by combining ‘Right for You’ ECM
functionality with the intuitive user experience & collaborative tools associated
with Document Collaboration solutions.
Docova is very intriguing because it’s the only solution we’ve recommended that
combines the strengths of each quadrant solution into one product – essentially
allowing Docova to span multiple quadrants in our matrix. As such, we
recommend Docova be included in most research or selection process
discussions. We base this recommendation on:
“Rich-Enough” Functionality
Most organizations don’t require all the functionalities associated with
ECM solutions. Docova provides a solid, deep feature set that will
satisfy most organizational IT requirements for the next 3-5 years,
while releasing regular updates with new and enhanced functionality.
Ease of Use (Intuitive User Experience)
One of Docova’s core advantages is Ease of Use for both End Users
and IT Developers. The User Interface can be standardized and
tailored, creating cost savings on training and End User errors. In fact,
our customers report Docova is so simple to learn that they don’t
require extensive training, leading to additional cost savings up-front
(vs. other solutions).
Lower Total Cost of Ownership
From a licensing perspective, Docova is less expensive versus the
Collaboration-Point Solution hybrid model (and against other ECM
solutions as well).
Administration: One Platform.
While the User Experience is standardized under the Document
Collaboration & Point Solution hybrid model, you’re still managing and
maintaining separate underlying platforms. With Docova, you’re
managing only one platform.
Flexibility and Speed to Develop
Rolling out new document and content applications doesn’t take
months, only a few days with Docova. This critical factor enables
organizations to achieve the Document Point solution’s ‘near instant’
usage on a reusable, extendable platform again and again – without
the additional license costs for multiple Point solutions.
