Automated Sample Ratio Mismatch (SRM) Detection and Analysis

Background: Sample Ratio Mismatch (SRM) checks can help detect data quality issues in online experimentation [3]. Not all experimentation platforms provide these checks as part of their solution. Users of these platforms must therefore manually check for SRM, or rely on additional processes—such as checklists [2]—or automation. Objective: To...

Challenges in Applying Continuous Experimentation: A Practitioners' Perspective

Background: Applying Continuous Experimentation on a large scale is not easily achieved. Although the evolution within large tech organisations is well understood, we still lack a good understanding of how to transition a company towards applying more experiments. Objective: This study investigates how practitioners define, value and apply...

Server-Side Experimentation: Common challenges from 12 organisations in The Netherlands

Background: experimentation is widely adopted within industry. Many large organisations have invested in their own infrastructure to be able to run experiments server-side. Objective: we wanted to investigate why organisations switch to server-side experimen- tation and which challenges they encounter in doing so. Method: a qualitative virtual...

Parametric Investigation on Simulated Staring FMCW Radar for Anti-Drone Swarms

This paper presents parametric investigation results on a staring FMCW radar system which targets drone swarms. The parametric investigation has been carried out by using the RAPID-SIM which facilitates system-level analysis of drone swarms' radar signatures. This paper explains concepts of the simulator's each module and also covers two...

Measuring the Changing Cost of Cybercrime

In 2012 we presented the first systematic study of the costs of cybercrime. In this paper, we report what has changed in the seven years since. The period has seen major platform evolution, with the mobile phone replacing the PC and laptop as the consumer terminal of choice, with Android replacing Windows, and with many services moving to the...

Towards A Flood Risk Assessment On A Reef-lined Coastline

The assessment of coastal flood risk on a reef-lined coastline presents several challenges. From the probabilistic side, we need to consider all possible events that could occur in the system, taking into account the different contributions of waves, storm surges, and tides that contribute to the total water level. To estimate reliable flood...
