Skill UI

An expert in designing, implementing, and optimizing scalable, reliable, and cost-effective data pipelines for both batch and streaming data. Covers advanced topics including ETL/ELT patterns, Kappa/Lambda architectures, workflow orchestration (Airflow/Prefect), transformation using dbt/Spark, and managing modern storage formats like Delta Lake and Iceberg. Focuses heavily on data quality, monitoring, and cost optimization strategies.

An expert guide for designing, implementing, and optimizing large-scale, secure, and highly available cloud-native infrastructure using Kubernetes. Covers advanced topics including GitOps workflows (ArgoCD/Flux), service mesh architecture (Istio), multi-cluster management, Policy as Code (OPA), and infrastructure automation with Terraform. Ideal for platform engineers building enterprise-grade container orchestration solutions.

This guide provides comprehensive security hardening procedures for enterprise Google Workspace environments. It covers advanced topics such as enforcing phishing-resistant Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), configuring email authentication (DMARC/SPF/DKIM), implementing Data Loss Prevention (DLP), and securing super admin accounts using Advanced Protection Program enrollment. Ideal for achieving high compliance and defending against BEC and phishing attacks.

A comprehensive knowledge-base-first skill designed for deep literature reviews in advanced communication domains. Use it for topics like 4G/5G/6G, wireless networking, satellite communications, Wi-Fi, routing protocols, and cross-layer optimization. It systematically searches structured academic databases (IEEE, ACM, Zotero, etc.) to provide related work, survey papers, and landscape summaries.

This guide provides comprehensive best practices for creating optimized, secure, and efficient multi-stage Dockerfiles. Learn how to separate build environments (builder stage) from minimal runtime environments, significantly reducing image size and attack surface. Topics covered include layer caching optimization, security hardening (non-root users), and using minimal base images for reproducible builds.

This guide provides a comprehensive, advanced methodology for red team operations. It covers critical topics such as Operational Security (OPSEC), designing robust C2 infrastructure using redirectors, employing living-off-the-land techniques, mastering lateral movement, establishing persistence, and planning data exfiltration while evading modern defensive systems. Use this to plan complex red team engagements or deeply understand Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) TTPs.

This advanced skill explores offensive reconnaissance techniques focused on defeating modern operating system security boundaries and mitigations. Topics include kernel/user boundary manipulation, sandbox escapes (AppContainer, LPAC), COM/RPC boundary exploitation, hypervisor interactions, and various integrity level bypassing methods. It is essential for planning advanced privilege escalation paths and understanding deep Windows security architecture, including AMSI, WDAC, and ETW manipulation.

This skill guides researchers to determine if their topic fits the scope of Acta Automatica Sinica (AAS). It provides detailed boundaries for control theory, pattern recognition, robotics, and smart systems, helping authors distinguish their contribution from pure algorithms or system software, and advising on appropriate article type (Review/Paper/Short) to avoid initial rejection.

A comprehensive guide for positioning research manuscripts for the ACM SIGGRAPH I3D Symposium. It covers core topics like real-time rendering, interactive 3D systems, and GPU algorithms, advising authors on how to frame their work, structure evidence, and compare it against related academic venues to maximize submission success.

This comprehensive guide assists researchers and practitioners in selecting the optimal venue and track (e.g., DAC, ICCAD, ISCA) for their electronic design automation (EDA) or chip-design project. It clarifies the critical distinction between the archival Research Manuscript track and the industry-facing Engineering Track at DAC, emphasizing the need to frame contributions using measurable Quality of Results (QoR) improvements, novel algorithms, or real-world industrial lessons.

This guide provides a comprehensive project management workflow for submitting research to the USENIX FAST conference. It covers the entire academic lifecycle, detailing milestones from initial topic selection and evidence locking to double-blind submission, author response, and managing the complex two-deadline cycle, including potential one-shot revisions. Use this to back-plan your research schedule based on concrete storage measurement timelines.

A comprehensive guide for data engineers and researchers determining the best venue (ICDE, SIGMOD, VLDB, etc.) for their data-intensive systems paper. It outlines the foundational "data-management-primitive test" and provides strategic advice on navigating the overlaps and differences between major database conferences based on research focus and submission timeline.
