Faster Base64 Encoding and Decoding Using AVX2 Instructions
Faster Base64 Encoding and Decoding using AVX2 Instructions WOJCIECH MUŁA, DANIEL LEMIRE, Universite´ du Quebec´ (TELUQ) Web developers use base64 formats to include images, fonts, sounds and other resources directly inside HTML, JavaScript, JSON and XML files. We estimate that billions of base64 messages are decoded every day. We are motivated to improve the efficiency of base64 encoding and decoding. Compared to state-of-the-art implementations, we multiply the speeds of both the encoding (≈ 10×) and the decoding (≈ 7×). We achieve these good results by using the single-instruction-multiple-data (SIMD) instructions available on recent Intel processors (AVX2). Our accelerated software abides by the specification and reports errors when encountering characters outside of the base64 set. It is available online as free software under a liberal license. CCS Concepts: •Theory of computation ! Vector / streaming algorithms; General Terms: Algorithms, Performance Additional Key Words and Phrases: Binary-to-text encoding, Vectorization, Data URI, Web Performance 1. INTRODUCTION We use base64 formats to represent arbitrary binary data as text. Base64 is part of the MIME email protocol [Linn 1993; Freed and Borenstein 1996], used to encode binary attachments. Base64 is included in the standard libraries of popular programming languages such as Java, C#, Swift, PHP, Python, Rust, JavaScript and Go. Major database systems such as Oracle and MySQL include base64 functions. On the Web, we often combine binary resources (images, videos, sounds) with text- only documents (XML, JavaScript, HTML). Before a Web page can be displayed, it is often necessary to retrieve not only the HTML document but also all of the separate binary resources it needs.

CS297 Report Bookmarklet Builder for Offline Data Retrieval Sheetal Naidu [email protected] Advisor: Dr. Chris Pollett Department of Computer Science San Jose State University Fall 2007 Table of Contents Introduction ………………………………………………………………………………. 3 Deliverable 1 ……………………………………………………………………………... 3 Deliverable 2 ……………………………………………………………………………... 4 Deliverable 3 ……………………………………………………………………………... 6 Deliverable 4 ……………………………………………………………………………... 7 Future work ………………………………………………………………………………. 8 Conclusion ……………………………………………………………………………….. 8 References ………………………………………………………………………………... 8 2 Introduction A bookmarklet is a small computer application that is stored as a URL of a bookmark in the browser. Bookmarlet builders exist for storing single webpages in hand held devices and these webpages are stored as PDF files. The goal of my project is to develop a tool that can save entire web page applications as bookmarklets. This will enable users to use these applications even when they are not connected to the Internet. The main technology beyond Javascript needed to do this is the data: URI scheme. This enables images, Flash, applets, PDFs, etc. to be directly embedded as base64 encoded text within a web page. This URI scheme is supported by all major browsers other than Internet Explorer. Our program will obfuscate the actual resulting JavaScript so these complete applications could potentially be sold without easily being reverse engineered. The application will be made available online, to users who are typically website owners and would like to allow their users to be able to use the applications offline. This report describes the background work that was conducted as preparation for CS298 when the actual implementation of the project will take place. This preparation work was split into four main deliverables. The deliverables were designed at gaining relevant information and knowledge with respect to the main project.

Dynamic Web-Applications with Meteor.Js
Yrkkö Äkkijyrkkä Dynamic Web-Applications with Meteor.js Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Engineering Information Technology Thesis 4 December 2015 Abstract Author(s) Yrkkö Äkkijyrkkä Title Dynamic Web-Applications with Meteor.js Number of Pages 36 pages Date December 4, 2015 Degree Bachelor of Engineering Degree Programme Information Technology Specialisation option Software engineering Instructor(s) Simo Silander, Senior Lecturer This thesis studies the viability of using Meteor.js in implementing a content management system by using the User Centred Design and Generic programming paradigm. The goal of the project was to program generic visual templates and software modules to be used in the aggregation and displaying of user-created data. The need for a content management system came from Aalto University Department of Ar- chitecture, which was in dire need for a more accessible way of interacting with their audi- ence and the academic community. During the development a great deal of care was placed on making the intranet side acces- sible to different user profiles, the common factor being the fact that the user base is stems from the architecture department or similar academic circles. The author’s knowledge and experience gained during studies and working as a freelance web-developer during the past 5 years were well applied in the project, as well as the know- how acquired at Conmio Oy building high concurrency web-applications that once served up to 100 million page hits per day. Within this frame work, the study tries to objectively ascertain how production-ready Meteor actually is, how flexible it is when considering a particular software design and how well it performs when carrying out the design.

Integrating Communication Services Into Mobile Browsers
INTEGRATING COMMUNICATION SERVICES INTO MOBILE BROWSERS Joachim Zeiß1, Marcin Davies1, Goran Lazendic1, Rene Gabner1 and Janusz Bartecki2 1FTW Telecommunications Research Center Vienna, Vienna, Austria 2Kapsch CarrierCom, Vienna, Austria Keywords: Convergence, VoIP, Browser-APIs, SIP, IMS, HTML5, Websockets, Real-time Communication. Abstract: This paper introduces a novel approach on how to integrate communication services into Web applications running in the browser. The solution is based on two major design decisions: To resolve the need for a business-to-business (B2B) relationship between Web provider and communication service provider, and to distribute the Model, View and Controller components of an application across different processes. Our ap- proach helps to answer the question on how to efﬁciently integrate network operator’s assets into applications from over the top (OTT) players. The separation between application control by the Web page and the actual command execution by the native capabilities of the user device opens new opportunities for global reacha- bility of telco services, easy deployment and re-deployment of applications with zero conﬁguration need for users and developers as well as privacy protection by keeping sensitive data within the user domain, e.g. the user’s communication device. 1 INTRODUCTION lligence” project, called APSINT, provides a software architecture that integrates seamlessly into the mobile More and more innovative applications created for the operators network infrastructure.
