SearchLove London 2015 | Will Critchlow | Practical Tips for the Future of ...Distilled
Having seen the changes from Google and observed the changes in our own behaviour, you may now be trying to figure out what to do differently to prepare for the future. Will has you covered, from making the most of new ranking factors and understanding what place apps and deep linking have in your plans, to creating content for mobile. This session will focus on the real-world changes you should be making right now to your web presence and campaigns.
As developers, we all know that if a library, framework or an API that we are willing to use is too complicated to use or integrate, we will end up looking for an other one. So if you are trying to build an API or a library, the biggest challenge is not to publish it, but achieve to make it use by other developers. And this all depend on the developer experience (DX) that you provide parallely to the product you are providing.
Here is what I've learnt in 2 years of working on developer experience of an API.

Summary of what you need to know to get started with iPhone development: your relationship with Apple, developer tools, the iPhone Platform, and Objective-C
A Multiplatform, Multi-Tenant Challenge - Droidcon Lisbon 2023Pedro Vicente
What if you had to build a multiplatform (Android & iOS) and multi-tenant app with the objective of sharing the biggest amout of code possible while having all apps being UI/UX independent?
We want to take you through the discovery trip we made while building this. From architecture to ins and outs of KMM via Gradle magic that enabled us to have a Android, iOS and Desktop app.
Also sharing our rational over each of the options we took: Why not React Native? Or Xamarin? Should we use Compose Multiplatform?

The Art and Science of Mobile App Success - Seattle Interactive Conference 20...Jennifer Wong
If you build it they may not come. If you promote it, you may not retain them. If you retain them, you may never make money. With over 20,000 apps added to app stores each month, to remain competitive, a skillful approach to running an app business is required - and it all needs to be measurable. In an industry where there is no standardized tracking method, many mobile app marketers still face challenges in measuring and and reporting on actionable results of their app campaigns This session will highlight the key elements in a success mobile app marketing campaign: discoverability, advertising, attribution, and monetization.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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.

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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

3. Why App Stores?
What game? I never heard of it.
You’re hosting it on GeoCities, how good can it be?
Why wouldn’t I buy a game from a publisher I’ve heard
of?
How do I know it doesn’t have a virus?
You want my credit card? No Way!
How do I install it?
4. Why App Stores?
Now:
Your app is
displayed on same
footing as Facebook,
Twitter, Yelp, etc.
That looks nice!
I’ll click install!
5. Why App Stores?
Basically everyone buys their apps there
Payments are easy!
I need this… Download!
Oooh, cats… Download!
Hmm, monkeys… Download!
Furious birds? OK… Download!
“We know from our user testing [of] tablets
and mobile devices that users quickly
accumulate numerous applications”
- JAKOB NIELSEN
7. Android or iOS?
iOS!
“iPhone users spend an average of 19 cents per app downloaded, while Android
users spend only 6 cents per download.”
http://appleinsider.com/articles/13/07/18/iphone-users-pay-average-of-19-cents-per-app-android-users-pay-just-6-cents
Android!
“80 percent of smartphone sales worldwide — especially in developing markets
such as China, where Apple’s iPhone is seventh.”
http://venturebeat.com/2013/09/04/iphone-up-windows-phone-up-android-down-in-latest-mobile-marketshare-numbers/
8. Why not both? Yay PhoneGap!
Build your app in HTML5, CSS, and
JavaScript
PhoneGap builds it for:
●
●
●
●
●
Android
iOS
Windows Phone
Blackberry
… And More!
9. Or Apache Cordova, whatever!
PhoneGap or Cordova?
●
Both are Open Source and Free
●
Would you rather type “cordova” instead of
“phonegap” on the command line?
●
PhoneGap build does allow you to build apps in
the cloud (1st app free, pay for more)
(You can think of Apache Cordova as the engine that powers PhoneGap, similar to
how WebKit is the engine that powers Chrome or Safari.)
16. First… Android (Google Play Store)!
Wait time to publish: A few hours
Rejections? No Way
Pain rating: Use Eclipse, but not bad!
Pro Tip: For your app to be showcased in the 'Designed for tablets' list in
the Play Store, you need to upload at least one 7-inch and one 10-inch
screenshot.
19. Next Step… Kindle!
No Problem: Submit Same Android APK that you
submitted to Google Play store
Wait time to publish: 3 days
20. Amazon Kindle App Store
Rejections? Once, for good reason (AndroidManifest.xml
showed app incompatible with 1st generation Kindle Fire,
but I said it worked on all Kindles).
Solution: Edited device support section on dashboard and
resubmitted.
Pain Rating: Low
23. OK! Now… Chrome!
2 Types of apps:
Packaged Web App
●
●
Self contained code package
Strict JavaScript security restrictions
Hosted Web App
●
Basically just points to a web site
My Choice!
24. Chrome hosted web app
Just upload this zip…
app.zip:
adviceOwl-128.png
adviceOwl-16.png
manifest.json
25. Chrome hosted web app
manifest.json:
{
"name": "Advice Owl",
"description": "Read all your favorite advice columns in one app.",
"version": "1.3",
"manifest_version": 2,
"icons": { "16": "adviceOwl-16.png", "128": "adviceOwl-128.png" },
"app": {
"urls": [ "http://d2whqoo26gzkh3.cloudfront.net/adviceOwl/main.html" ],
"launch": { "web_url": "http://d2whqoo26gzkh3.cloudfront.net/adviceOwl/main.html" }
}
}
26. Chrome Web App Store
Wait time to publish: Few hours
Rejections? Once, because I mistakenly published the
same app twice.
Pain rating: Super Easy (for hosted web app)
Any Caveats? See next slide...
27. Chrome Web App Store
Caveat: You can never delete an app from
your dashboard
31. Finally... iTunes App Store!
Pain Rating: HIGH
Learn Xcode (kind of intricate)
Generate provisioning profiles
Create signing requests
Various stages of waiting
Rejections? Yes...
32. Submit To iTunes App Store
Submit App
(excited)…
Wait…
1 day…
2 days…
6 days...
33. iTunes App Store
Rejection!
We found that your app only
provides a very limited set of
features. It only provides a simple
RSS with no curation, or other
features. While we value simplicity,
we consider simplicity to be
uncomplicated - not limited in
features and functionality.
34. iTunes App Store
I Wrote My Rebuttal
Thank you for taking the time to
review Advice Owl. I would like to
make the case that while it basically
does provide a simple RSS service, it
is not true that it provides no curation
or other features: 1. The feeds are
all...blah...blah...blah
I completely expected them to ignore it...
35. iTunes App Store
The next day…
Subject: The status
for your app, Advice
Owl (739076106), is
now Ready for Sale.
They Listened! They Listened!
37. iTunes App Store
My App On the
iPad
iTunes rounds your app’s
icon automagically for
you
38. App Store Roundup
Android: Steady Growth, Decent Ad performance
Kindle: Very little sales in Kindle app store, but analytics
show many Kindle users (must be able to get from Android store)
Chrome: Easy to host, light activity (~7 visits /
day)
iTunes: Most likely to reject your app, but Best
growth and Ad performance so far
