developers, especially those that use it at home. Since Linux and the major versions of Unix are similar, code developed on one platform usually can be ported to another. They also can use the same tools, such as the GNU tools from the Free Software Foundation. ("Geeks") The GNU/Linux operating system will likely continue to grow in popularity throughout the decade initially with hackers and then with consumers. Works Cited Moody, Glen. Rebel Code.

Recent leaks regarding the National Security Agency’s monitoring of America’s communications, indeed, the communication of World leaders has brought the use of technology to the forefront in the mind of many people. This, then, begs the question, is privacy any longer possible in America? In this paper, I will argue by using scholarly and peer-reviewed resources that privacy is possible in the 21st century in America in online environments, because the technology exists through which privacy can
Data Encryption Shiqi Luo(701794770) The definition and importance of data encryption Data encryption refers to the process of transforming electronic information into a scrambled form that can only be read by someone who knows how to translate the code. In nowadays business world, it’s the easiest and most practical way to secure the information that we stored and processed, and it’s significant for our sensitive information. For example, as electronic commerce is popular now, the vendors and retailers

What is layered security? A method of adding different parts of security in order to either prevent or slow down attackers from entering an information system. Most times layered security is referred to defense in depth. A layered security system have things incorporated such as Firewalls, DMZ, antivirus, and Intrusion Detection Services. The list can be much longer. The purpose of a layered security system is to provide as much protection to the Information system as possible. No one can ever

individuals do today and there were many reasons for this. During the French Revolution there was a large amount of taxation for certain class groups, “While average tax rates were higher in Britain, the burden on the common people was greater in France” (GNU, 2008, pg. 2). Due to these large taxations on the peasants and lower class and not on the clergy and nobles it caused excessive conflict between the classes. Not only was taxation a cause of conflict between classes but so was the corrupt monarchy
Free software is designated software’s that provides users liberation and freedom of use. Open source softwares are free softwares which are designed by developers to be distributed free of cost for the benefit of community. These softwares also provide the code with which the user can modify and distribute the software under the same license. In order to understand about the freeware and how it started we need to start from beginning . In the era of 50 and 60 almost all the softwares along with
For the very start of this story about Linux we would like to define, in simple lines, what would be the Linux and its properties. Linux is an operating system, much like any other operating system but with a dose of uniqueness, that is based on the model of custom and open source free software research and development as well as the flexible movement on the market. This system was meant to be free from the first time it was made and published. It happened to be that the Intel x86-based pc’s were

Linux or Windows? Open Software versus Proprietary software? When most people think of the best operating system, they first think of Windows and the OSX. However, Linux and many of its open source software are becoming more predominantly emerging in the current day and age. Linux widely touted for its small user base but Cost free, High Security, flexible user control and stability. Windows for it’s largely user base and wide customer range and support. In this paper, I will be discussing and doing

Compiler Compiler, in computer science, computer program that translates source code, instructions in a program written by a software engineer, into object code, those same instructions written in a language the computer's central processing unit (CPU) can read and interpret. Software engineers write source code using high level programming languages that people can understand. Computers cannot directly execute source code, but need a compiler to translate these instructions into a low level language

One of the major historical failures that comprised security is the UNIX operating system (with GNU Emacs installed) at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratories and other military laboratories. UNIX operating systems were widely being used by a vast number of computer professionals and research scientists back in those days. Though the operating system cannot

Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Introduction to Stock Prediction Stock market prediction means predicting the values of stock in near future. It helps in making the decision regarding whether to buy the stock or not. Several approaches have been tried out to predict the stock values of any listed company. Prediction methodologies fall into three broad categories [4] 1) Fundamental Analysis. 2) Technical Analysis. 3) Technological methods. Fundamental Analysts are concerned with the company that underlies
Cyber-Communism: The New Threat in the New Millennium My expedition into cyber-communism began when I read Brock Meeks' "Hackers Stumble Toward Legitimacy"[1]. The article addressed a recent hackers' convention. Interestingly, the keynote speaker was Eric Boucher[2] (alias Jello Biafra[3]), a rock star with no technical background. Numerous questions ensue. Who is Eric Boucher (alias Jello Biafra)? What does he believe? More importantly, why schedule someone with no technical background to speak
