Guest speaker presentation at 'Seminar Offshore Wind Energy' UGent – June 201...Pieter Jan Jordaens
Introduction seminar to the new study program in 'Offshore Wind Energy' organized by the Faculty of Engineering Technology of the KU Leuven and the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture of the University of Ghent (UGent). Goals of the seminar was to give an overview of the current developments in the Belgian Offshore Wind industry. This seminar gave an overview in fields such as offshore wind energy technology, grid integration & operation and maintenance. My contribution gave an overview of the current drivers, technological evolutions, ongoing market trends and technical challenges within this relative new industry. Also insights in reliability issues, risk mitigation pathways and case studies from testing and monitoring projects within OWI-Lab have been presented.
Position sensors are sensors, which measure linear or angular position. Following the trend towards robust and intelligent sensor systems and applications ams offers a broad portfolio of non-contacting (without physical contact), hall-based and intelligent magnetic position sensors with high reliability and long functional life. With these position sensor solutions we are serving high-growth applications within the automotive (safety critical automotive applications concerning transmission, pedal, steering, chassis), consumer (home appliances), industrial (manufacturing, building and office automation, medical) and robotics markets.
We offer our customers and potential customers more than just a product. Our value proposition supports high-performance, superior durability, adherence to the most stringent safety requirements, and best-in class stray field immunity. Based on our differential principle (patented technology) all ams magnetic position sensors can withstand external magnetic stray fields above the limits required by the most demanding OEM’s. This is growing increasingly in importance, especially in the automotive arena as the drivetrain of vehicles becomes partially or wholly electrified, the environment becomes more electromagnetically and mechanically harsh, and new standards such as ISO11452-8 (immunity to magnetic fields) and ISO26262 (functional safety) become adopted.
Based on the fact that rotary and linear magnetic sensor technology shows robust growth, and particular trends in the automotive industry, like the need for contactless technologies (increased need for precision & safety), improvements in reliability & precision, lower CO2 emissions requirements, cost reduction, and the increased use of brush-less (BLDC) motors favors ams. We are encouraged to put significant weight behind magnetic position sensors for applications in automotive systems. A vivid example of these automotive trends can be seen a BLDC Motor for electronic power steering (on-axis motor position sensing and control in an Electric Power Steering (EPS) system). The motor position sensor controls the commutation of a brushless DC motor employed in the system. Sophisticated position sensor ICs with multiple sensing elements on a single die enable faster and more accurate acquisition of information. Stability over temperature, robustness against tolerances and interfering field, high number of pole pairs, high speeds (up to 30.000 rpm), angle error below 1° degree, ISO26262-compliance and redundant magnetic position sensors eliminating the concern of “loss of assist” make an ams position sensor the leading solution for automobile EPS systems.

Smallholders represent a significant portion (38%) of oil palm cultivation in Indonesia, and represent a critical component of the palm oil industry, as well as constitute a significant opportunity to improve livelihoods in resource-poor settings. Smallholders’ engagement in oil palm cultivation began as part of Indonesian government to promote tree plantation crops in the late 1970s. The initial programme consisted basically of direct state investments through state-owned companies (PTPN) and was integrated with government-sponsored transmigration programmes to provide a labor force for the new plantations. This integration was embryonic for smallholder engagement in state-led agribusiness. The emergence of smallholder oil palm planters constituted a spread effect of plantation development led by the government. The state agribusiness-driven policy has transformed rural areas and settlement development was started in the surrounding of large-scale oil palm plantation.

- There are now 117.3 GW of installed wind energy capacity in the EU: 110.7 GW onshore and 6.6 GW offshore.
- 11,159 MW of wind power capacity (worth between €13 bn and €18 bn) was installed in the EU-28 during 2013, a decrease of 8% compared to 2012 installations.
- The EU power sector continues its move away from fuel oil and coal with each technology continuing to decommission more than it installs.
- The wind power capacity installed by the end of 2013 would, in a normal wind year, produce 257 TWh of electricity, enough to cover 8% of the EU's electricity consumption - up from 7% the year before.
Record offshore figures in 2013 conceal slow-down in new projects being developed. 418 offshore turbines came online in 2013 in Europe, making a record 1,567 Megawatts of new capacity. This is one-third more than the capacity installed in 2012. This makes a new total of 6,562 MW of offshore wind power - enough to provide 0.7% of the EU's electricity.
Why is an ambitious binding renewable energy target for 2030 essential for the wind industry today?
An ambitious renewables target shows investors there is a long-term market for wind energy, meaning they invest and the wind sector grows.
The EU must decide as soon as possible on an energy and climate policy framework for 2030. This is so investors continue to invest, wind energy continues to grow and deliver all its benefits, and the EU can meet its greenhouse gas reduction commitments of 80-95% by 2050 in the most cost-efficient way.
277 new offshore wind turbines, totalling 1,045 megawatts (MW), were fully grid connected in Europe during the first six months of 2013. This is double compared to the same period in 2012 when 523.2 MW were installed. In addition, 268 foundations were installed and 254 turbines erected, all during the first 181 days of the year.
In 2012, Europe’s wind energy industry was plunged into a crisis of regulatory uncertainty as governments, seeing renewables as an easy target for austerity measures, slashed or changed their support. Despite this, 2012 marked a historic milestone: reaching 100 GW of wind power capacity in the EU, meeting the power needs of 57 million households, equivalent to the output of 39 nuclear power plants – a remarkable success which was achieved during a period of extraordinary growth founded on firm political support.
Emissions from fossil fuel power plants and heavy industry cause climate change.The Emissions Trading System (ETS) puts a price on carbon emissions and prices fossil fuel electricity at its real cost.
Published in February 2013 by the European Wind Energy Association, this is the most up-to-date information on wind energy. It includes facts and figures on statistics and targets, jobs and finance, technology, costs, subsidies and prices, R&D, environment and public opinion - all in an easy to digest format. For more wind energy facts, visit www.ewea.org
Europe installed and grid connected 293 offshore wind turbines in 2012 - more than one per working day. This brings the total to 1,662 turbines, in 55 offshore wind farms in ten European countries.
The EU wind energy sector installed 11.6 gigawatts (GW) of capacity in 2012, bringing the total wind power capacity to 105.6 GW, according to the 2012 annual statistics launched by the European Wind Energy Association (EWEA).
A report on EU electricity market rules, which must reflect the energy generation mix of the future and help usher in a flexible power system with a large-scale uptake of wind power and other renewable energy sources. The report recommends: 1- Creating a level playing field for renewable energy sources by tackling structural market deficits. 2-Creating functioning markets covering larger geographical regions within Europe so as to reduce the need to balance variable renewables like wind and solar 3- Developing intraday and balancing markets at national and cross-border levels 4- Creating new markets for 'grid support services', supporting the functioning of the grid to ensure a secure supply of electricity, instead of introducing market distorting capacity payments.
It is the European Commission’s job to propose a seven year ‘Multiannual Financial Framework’ budget to the Council and Parliament. The current proposal stands at €1,025 billion. This represents 1% of the EU’s gross domestic product – while national budgets are around 30-40% of national GDP.
The EU’s budget needs to reflect the high priority given to energy and climate commitments in EU policy in its 2020 climate and renewable energy targets. What is more, EU countries have been undergoing strict austerity measures. The next EU budget needs to be a “growth” budget. (September 2012).
The SEAENERGY 2020 final report highlights the fact that currently there is little in the way of maritime spatial planning (MSP) in Europe’s maritime states. However, Member States sharing the same sea basin could benefit from cooperation. The European Commission could provide MSP through a European Directive.
SEANERGY2020 was a 26 months project, financed by the Intelligent Energy Europe programme. It focused on maritime spatial planning from the offshore renewable energy perspective. It provided policy recommendations on how to promote a more integrated and coordinated approach to maritime spatial planning and how to facilitate the implementation of the 20% Renewables Directive. (July 2012).
2011 was the year that EWEA spearheaded the call for 2030 renewable energy targets and began to look forward to its 30th anniversary in 2012. During the last 30 years EWEA has supported the growth of Europe’s wind power industry from a marginal technology (in 1982 there was just over 100 MW of capacity in Europe) to a major industry – Europe is set to pass the 100,000 MW mark this year, providing over 6% of Europe’s electricity.
Despite the ongoing economic crisis, Europe’s wind installations remained stable in 2011. And the industry’s long-term prospects remain bright in the light of the European Commission’s Energy Roadmap 2050 showing that wind energy would be the leading generating technology by 2050. (June 2012).
Green Growth examines the impact of wind energy on jobs and the economy in the EU. The wind energy industry increased its contribution to the EU’s gross domestic product (GDP) by 33% between 2007 and 2010. In 2010, the industry’s growth was twice that of the EU’s GDP overall, with the sector contributing €32 billion to an EU economy in slowdown. Contents: The sector created 30% more jobs from 2007 to 2010 to reach nearly 240,000, while EU unemployment rose by 9.6% . By 2020, there should be 520,000 jobs in the sector. The sector was a net exporter of €5.7 billion worth of goods and services in 2010. The sector avoided €5.71 billion of fuel costs in 2010. The sector invested 5% of its spending in R&D – three times more than the EU average. Wind turbine manufacturers commit around 10% of their total turnover to R&D.
EWEA's report shows that in 2010, wind energy avoided as much as 28% of the EU’s Kyoto emissions reduction target, and will avoid as much as 31% of the EU-wide objective by 2020.
EWEA climate policy recommendations for the EU to 2020 include moving to a 30% domestic reduction target, tightening the emissions trading system to avoid oversupply and a low CO2 price and committing 100% of ETS auctioning revenue to finance climate mitigation. (November 2011).
The OffshoreGrid project proves the financial benefits of building a meshed European grid offshore and outlines two cost efficient designs.
Offshore grids, connecting North and Baltic Sea wind farms and electricity consumers, can be built substantially cheaper than expected. Building “hub connections” at sea instead of using cables to connect single wind farms individually to the shore will result in lower investment costs of 14 billion Euros. Additionally if these hub connections would be combined with an even more interconnected “meshed grid”, the necessary additional costs of 7 billion Euros would be compensated by 16 to 21 billion Euros of additional benefits over 25 years of grid operation. October 2011.
2011, just nine years away from 2020, was when the EU’s main climate change and renewable energy legislation expires. Right now – with the EU’s 2020 goals to increase the share of renewable energy in the overall energy mix to 20% and to cut carbon emissions by 20% – the EU is leading the world in terms of renewable energy deployment, exports and promotion.But how will we keep our leadership, retain our competitive edge, and keep cutting emissions from the power sector whilst continuing to create thousands of green jobs and billions of Euros in export revenue? Will decision-makers leave the EU in a policy vacuum post-2020? (August 2011).
This updated edition of Pure Power once again shows the huge contribution wind energy already makes – and will increasingly make – to meeting Europe’s electricity demand and strengthening its economy, and to avoiding polluting and costly fuel and carbon. Contents: Wind energy currently meets 5.3% of the EU’s electricity consumption from an installed capacity of 84.3 GW. The European Wind Energy Association’s scenarios show that wind energy in 2020 should meet 15.7% of EU electricity demand from 230 GW, and by 2030, 28.5% from 400 GW. Indeed, EWEA believes wind energy can provide half of Europe’s power by 2050, with the remainder from other renewable sources. To ensure the continued buoyancy of the wind energy sector and the path to 100% renewables in 2050, EU renewables legislation is needed now for the period after 2020. This should follow the successful legislation so far by setting an ambitious, binding renewables target for 2030.
2010 was a year of many highs and some lows. One of the highs was the fact that the Member States’ National Renewable Energy Action Plans showed the EU to be en route to slightly exceed the 20% renewable energy target.
Similarly, the European Commission’s important communications on a 2020 strategy and on infrastructure priorities were steps towards a Europe-wide power grid and a functioning single electricity market.
EWEA reached out to a wider audience in 2010 through its ‘Breath of Fresh Air’ campaign. It communicated the benefits of wind energy through a visible presence in Brussels and beyond, including the display of a turbine blade and a photo exhibition in the EU quarter, as well as the array of events organised worldwide for Global Wind Day. June 2011.

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.

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).

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:
