Forward Progress Guarantees in C++ - Olivier Giroux - CppNow 2023
In this talk, Olivier Giroux delves into the concept of Ford progress guarantees in C++. He begins by explaining why Ford progress guarantees are important, as they provide a way to reason about program behavior in a deterministic manner. Olivier then discusses how C++'s abstract machine and memory model impact the behavior of programs that use Ford progress guarantees, highlighting the differences between C++ and other programming languages. He also touches on the implications of C++'s unique features for other languages that may not have their own Ford progress guarantees. Throughout the talk, Olivier provides examples to illustrate how Ford progress guarantees work in practice and why they are essential for building reliable software. By the end of the talk, viewers will have a deeper understanding of Ford progress guarantees in C++ and how they can be used to create more robust and predictable programs.

Efficient Enumeration Algorithms via Circuits
The video discusses a new approach to enumerating query answers using circuits. The speaker explains that traditional methods of query evaluation are inefficient, so they propose using intentional query evaluation instead. This involves compiling queries into tractable classes of circuits like DSDNNF, UBDDs, and others, and then evaluating the circuit to retrieve the answer. The talk covers preliminaries and states the problem formally, followed by a detailed explanation of how this approach can be used for tasks like counting, weighted counting, and probability computation. The speaker also discusses how these results can be applied to enumeration on circuits in general, and how they can be used to improve efficiency. Finally, the video concludes with a summary of the key points covered.
FourQ on FPGA New Hardware Speed Records for Elliptic Curve Cryptography over Large Prime Character
The video begins by introducing the new 4Q F-bit elliptic curve, a joint work of four researchers from different institutions.

Separating Semantic and Circular Security for Symmetric Key Bit Encryption from the Learnin
In this video, we explore the ideas of semantic and circular security for symmetric key bit encryption. We investigate what these terms imply regarding the security assumptions made by the encryption scheme and how they can help safeguard against unlawful access to encrypted data. We begin by defining the notion of semantic security, which asserts that an adversary cannot identify a specific secret key without knowing its value. We then examine the idea of circular security, which contends that if the adversary has some knowledge of the secret key, they still cannot distinguish between encryption of two different messages. We also consider situations in which the adversary knows some encryption of a portion of the secret key and discuss how these concepts can help protect against attacks. Overall, this video provides an overview of the fundamental principles of semantic and circular security for symmetric key bit encryption.
When to use UDP vs TCP in Building a Backend Application?

Hussain also discusses when to use each protocol based on the application's requirements. He emphasizes that understanding the fundamentals of these protocols is essential for choosing the right one for your application. The video covers topics such as HTTP, GRPC, and XMPP, and how they are built on top of UDP or TCP. Hussain encourages viewers to understand how these protocols work and choose the right one based on their application's requirements.
