INTRODUCTION The purpose of this essay is about using a real example to show the role of software architecture in a software project, also describing its role in the project and finally evaluating if the software architect played his or her role effectively. Firstly what is software architecture and who is a software architect? There have been numerous defined of what software architecture is but as defined by Mary Garlan and David Shaw (1993) as a level of design that involves four(4) major component
multitask without the software, which enables the OS to be used and updated. Kernel code is responsible to manage the work in both hardware and software for the OS, and it also transmits the information using the Input and Output system in OS X and it does a similar function in Windows10, but it is called device manager. Using the internet might compromise the safety of user data in some sites which means that the OS must be well secured. In Mac the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) is responsible
programming electives in higher grades. I also took the initiative to set up a student-run Computer Club in my high school and host our first annual Computer Symposium. My upbringing in Delhi also made me aware of the gaping inequalities of wealth distribution in our society and as my interest in Computer Science deepened, it only reinforced my belief that lean-technologies can help governments of developing countries in bringing their policies to the altar of execution more efficiently. It is that passion
The Impact of Computers On Our Lives Only once in a lifetime will a new invention come about to touch every aspect of our lives. Such a device that changes the way we work, live, and play is a special one, indeed. A machine that has done all this and more now exists in nearly every business in the US and one out of every two households (Hall, 156). This incredible invention is the computer. The electronic computer has been around for over a half-century, but its ancestors have been around for
What makes Windows so popular? Some say it is so user friendly. What exactly makes it so user friendly? An answer to that question could be that is has an incredible desktop environment with which almost any user can sit down and interact. More choices are available because, Linux is coming into the arena with some desktop environments that are just as user friendly as Windows. These will offer as much versatility if not more to allow for some great customization and installation of separate applications
1.0 Introduction An operating system (OS) is a software program that manages the hardware and software resources of a computer. The operating system is an essential component of the system software in a computer system. The operating system programs make system resources available to user(s), the user’s application programs and to other application programs running on the computer. (From Silberschatz and Gagne et al., 2010) Some operating systems are designed to be convenient, others to be efficient
of data, where the user specifies your application through the sequence of MapReduce operations. The tasks of parallelism, fault tolerance, data distribution and load balancing are left to the MapReduce system, simplifying the development process. From the standpoint of distributed systems, MapReduce offers the transparency of replication, distribution and synchronization. Each operation of the MapReduce model consists of two functions. The first call mapping function receives a portion of the input
Abstract: This paper discusses peer-to-peer file sharing and distributed computing. In the mid-1980s, the term P2P, or peer-to-peer, was used by local area network vendors to describe the computing nodes on their networks. Previous to that, the term was used to describe ARPAnet, the military-backed computer network that would become the model for today's Internet[1]. Today however, the term P2P has a very different meaning - it has come to describe applications designed specifically to exploit
store very important data on our phone. So it becomes very important to cope up with challenge posed due to malicious software or notoriously known as malware. But to prevent our phone and develop malware detecting software it is very important to understand the behavior of these malware .Keeping that in mind this paper aims to have a understanding of –what is malware and its distribution in android smart phone as android phone covers a large proportion of smart phone built today. This paper also discusses

First, the ISO Development Environment (ISODE) was developed in 1990 to provide an approach for OSI migration for the DoD. ISODE software allows OSI applications to operate over TCP/IP. During this same period, the Internet and OSI communities started to work together to bring about the best of both worlds as many TCP and IP features started to migrate into OSI protocols, particularly
by organizing and distributing to the needy victims. Emergency management has the responsibility of disaster response operations including donations management. According to McEntire, “Donations management is the receipt, sorting, storing and distribution of goods and monies for the benefit of victims in response and recovery operations.” (McEntire, 195). During disaster response operations, donations management is one of the major challenges faced in the response and recovery phase. The United
Digital Video and Copyright Fair Use Abstract: Video is one of the most compelling forms of communication of this time. Over the course of the past few years, the gradual but sure drift from analog to digital in video technology has not only improved the abilities of visual communication media to distribute data, but has also improved their abilities to manipulate the data that they distribute. Digital video technology has advanced to the extent that still image manipulation has been usurped
Building Description System (BDS) which was the first software to describe individual library elements which can be retrieved and added to a model. This program uses a graphical user interface, orthographic and perspective views and a sortable database that allows the user to retrieve information categorically by attributes including material type and supplier. The project was designed by Charles Eastman who was trained as an architect at Berkeley and went on to work in computer science at Carnegie
The Goal Write-up The fictional business novel of Goldratt’s, “The Goal: A Process of Ongoing Improvement,” emphasizes on constraints and the solutions in production management. Determined by its nature, the novel does not present the analysis quantitatively about the underlying issues, instead, the author shares his insights and experiences with the readers by using practical examples and accessible literature style. Even without quantitative analysis, a substantial amount of information about
