The security threats to mobile application are growing explosively. Mobile app flaws and security defects could open doors for hackers to easily attack mobile apps. Secure software development must be addressed earlier in the development life cycle rather than fixing the security holes after attacking. Early eliminating against possible security vulnerability will help us increase the security of software and mitigate the consequence of damages of data loss caused by potential malicious attacking. In this paper, we present a static security analysis approach with open source FindSecurityBugs plugin for Android Studio IDE. We demonstrate that integration of the plugin enables developers secure mobile application and mitigating security risks during implementation time in Android Studio IDE.

TOM Toolkit Nonlocalized Events
A TOM Toolkit plugin application designed for astrophysical events that are non-localized in position on sky, such as gravitational wave detections. This plugin includes functionality for gathering and displaying alert information from GraceDB, and can associate a number of targets with each event instance. It supports the creation of active and retired lists of candidate targets to facilitate follow-up observations.

Applying differentiable programming techniques and machine learning algorithms to foreign programs requires developers to either rewrite their code in a machine learning framework, or otherwise provide derivatives of the foreign code. This paper presents Enzyme, a high-performance automatic differentiation (AD) compiler plugin for the LLVM compiler framework capable of synthesizing gradients of statically analyzable programs expressed in the LLVM intermediate representation (IR). Enzyme synthesizes gradients for programs written in any language whose compiler targets LLVM IR including C, C++, Fortran, Julia, Rust, Swift, MLIR, etc., thereby providing native AD capabilities in these languages. Unlike traditional source-to-source and operator-overloading tools, Enzyme performs AD on optimized IR. On a machine-learning focused benchmark suite including Microsoft's ADBench, AD on optimized IR achieves a geometric mean speedup of 4.2 times over AD on IR before optimization allowing Enzyme to achieve state-of-the-art performance. Packaging Enzyme for PyTorch and TensorFlow provides convenient access to gradients of foreign code with state-of-the-art performance, enabling foreign code to be directly incorporated into existing machine learning workflows.more » « less

Kubernetes, an open-source container orchestration platform, has been widely adopted by cloud service providers (CSPs) for its advantages in simplifying container deployment, scalability and scheduling. Networking is one of the central components of Kubernetes, providing connectivity between different pods (group of containers) both within the same host and across hosts. To bootstrap Kubernetes networking, the Container Network Interface (CNI) provides a unified interface for the interaction between container runtimes. There are several CNI implementations, available as open-source ‘CNI plugins’. While they differ in functionality and performance, it is a challenge for a cloud provider to differentiate and choose the appropriate plugin for their environment. In this paper, we compare the various open source CNI plugins available from the community, qualitatively and through detailed quantitative measurements. With our experimental evaluation, we analyze the overheads and bottlenecks for each CNI plugin, as a result of the network model it implements, interaction with the host network protocol stack and the network policies implemented in iptables rules. The choice of the CNI plugin may also be based on whether intra-host or inter-host communication dominates.more » « less

Abstract Motivation Two-dimensional [15N-1H] separated local field solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments of membrane proteins aligned in lipid bilayers provide tilt and rotation angles for α-helical segments using Polar Index Slant Angle (PISA)-wheel models. No integrated software has been made available for data analysis and visualization. Results We have developed the PISA-SPARKY plugin to seamlessly integrate PISA-wheel modeling into the NMRFAM-SPARKY platform. The plugin performs basic simulations, exhaustive fitting against experimental spectra, error analysis and dipolar and chemical shift wave plotting. The plugin also supports PyMOL integration and handling of parameters that describe variable alignment and dynamic scaling encountered with magnetically aligned media, ensuring optimal fitting and generation of restraints for structure calculation. Availability and implementation PISA-SPARKY is freely available in the latest version of NMRFAM-SPARKY from the National Magnetic Resonance Facility at Madison (http://pine.nmrfam.wisc.edu/download_packages.html), the NMRbox Project (https://nmrbox.org) and to subscribers of the SBGrid (https://sbgrid.org). The pisa.py script is available and documented on GitHub (https://github.com/weberdak/pisa.py) along with a tutorial video and sample data. Supplementary information Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.more » « less

Abstract The mitotic spindle is a microtubule‐based machine that pulls the two identical sets of chromosomes to opposite ends of the cell during cell division. The fission yeastSchizosaccharomyces pombeis an important model organism for studying mitosis due to its simple, stereotyped spindle structure and well‐established genetic toolset.S. pombespindle length is a useful metric for mitotic progression, but manually tracking spindle ends in each frame to measure spindle length over time is laborious and can limit experimental throughput. We have developed an ImageJ plugin that can automatically trackS. pombespindle length over time and replace manual or semi‐automated tracking of spindle elongation dynamics. Using an algorithm that detects the principal axis of the spindle and then finds its ends, we reliably track the length of the spindle as the cell divides. The plugin integrates with existing ImageJ features, exports its data for further analysis outside of ImageJ and does not require any programming by the user. Thus, the plugin provides an accessible tool for quantification ofS. pombespindle length that will allow automatic analysis of large microscopy data sets and facilitate screening for effects of cell biological perturbations on mitotic progression.more » « less
