<p>Open-source routing has gained momentum in the last few years due to expensive proprietary network hardware and software. People and organizations want more control on routing hardware and software. Inspired by the success of open-source software, and contributions by researchers and many volunteer developers across the globe, there are two open-source routing stacks in the market which are quite promising in terms of performance and features, namely Quagga and XORP. These routing daemons can run on many different hardware and operating systems, and are free to download and customize accord

Abstract:

The number of cloud management software related to a private infrastructure-as-a-service cloud is increasing day-by-day. The features of the cloud management software vary significantly and this creates a difficulty for the cloud consumers to choose the software based on their business requirements. An example of the problem is choosing software with a power management feature. The power management feature is used to increase the efficiency of energy consumption by consolidating virtual machines together and turning off unused physical servers, which is not provided by many cloud management so

Embedded system plays an important role in various industry applications. An embedded system is consisting of software and hardware. The hardware platform of conventional embedded system is typically based on IC chips that have fixed resources. Besides, with the development of FPGA, an emerging approach for designing embedded system is implementing soft IP cores on FPGAs. Soft IP cores are synthesizable hardware blocks described in HDL language. Their source code can be either open or close to public. For example, OpenRISC 1200, is an open source 32-bit RISC microprocessor. In addition, the in

Abstract:

Usability is one of the important quality attributes. Open source software products are well known for their efficiency and effectiveness. Lack of usability in OSS (Open Source Software) products will result in poor usage of the product. In OSS development there is no usability team, and one could therefore expect that the usability would be low for these products. In order to find out if this was really the case we made a usability evaluation using a questionnaire for four OSS products. The questionnaire was based on a review of existing literature. This questionnaire was presented to 17 peop

The aerospace industry invests heavily in the design and manufacture of composite materials. Aircraft components are produced by placing unprocessed composite materials in an autoclave and applying heat and pressure. The desired part geometry is achieved by forming raw composite materials around a tool, typically made of aluminum or other metal. Throughout the cure cycle, temperature changes cause the part and tool to expand at different rates. This differential expansion, combined with composite material properties that evolve over time, produces residual stresses in the part and leads to geo

Abstract:

The diploma thesis deals with open source implementations of IMS technology. The theoretical part describes the functioning of IMS and its architecture, including the protocols used, the process of registration and connection establishment, as well as potential security threats to IMS systems. Two open source IMS projects were selected, Open IMS Core and Project Clearwater, on which the work is focused. In its next part, the diploma thesis deals with the description of selected open source IMS projects, this part also includes a description of the implemented security of both projects and a de

Abstract:

This thesis is describing a business strategy of how to license a software product. The licenses discussed in this thesis are called open source licenses. The open source licenses have gained much attention lately by companies such as Microsoft, IBM, and Sun Microsystems. The reason for this is that some products considered being open source software are very widely used. These products include the most popular web server, the Apache web server, with more than 60% market share. 25% of the installed operating systems that are running Apache and other web servers are installed with Linux as oper

Abstract:

Proper traffic analysis is crucial for the development of network systems, services and protocols. Traffic analysis equipment is often based on costly dedicated hardware, and uses proprietary software for traffic generation and analysis. The recent advances in open source packet processing, with the potential of generating and receiving packets using a regular Linux computer at 10 Gb/s speed, opens up very interesting possibilities in terms of implementing a traffic analysis system based on open-source Linux. The pktgen software package for Linux is a popular tool in the networking community f

Abstract:

<p>Syftet med uppsatsen är att sammanställa vad Open Source är och försöka kartlägga hur användningen av Open Source-program ser ut på de svenska folkbiblioteken.Jag tittar även på vilka Open Source-program som kan vara aktuella för ett bibliotek att titta närmare på. Resultatet visar att Open Source inte används i någon större utsträckning men att man är positivt inställd till rörelsen. Några få program har börjat användas men man är orolig för hur supporten fungerar för Open Source-program, sen verkar biblioteken inte ha någon större kontroll över vilka program som faktiskt används utan är s

<p> </p><p>Renovate a program is always a hard work and full of problems. It requires a good knowledge of the old program and research and investigation. RECODER is a tool for supporting static metaprogramming of Java program sources. This tool has been patches over and over again since the new versions of Java were coming out. Because of that the code starts to be dirty and with a lot of patches. In order to clean up the implementation the code should be renovated.</p><p>In this thesis, we present the changes that were introduced to the grammar and the implementation of the new parser for REC

Abstract:

Bekanntlich gibt es für fast jede erdenkliche Aufgabe ein Open-Source-Programm. Bis auf einige Ausnahmen ist das Angebot an Software für Amateurastronomen allerdings recht unübersichtlich. Der Vortrag soll deshalb eine Übersicht über verschiedene Software-Projekte geben, die für Astrofotografie und astronomische Beobachtungen nützlich sind. Einfache Demonstrationen werden die Einsatzmöglichkeiten dieser Programme verdeutlichen und sollen dazu anregen, den Nachtimmel selbst mit Feldstecher und Kamera zu erkunden.

Abstract:

It may seem controversial that open-source software (OSS), i.e. software created by voluntary contributions that is available to use, change, and distribute for free, can be utilized for business purposes. Yet, for some firms, commercial OSS software products are the primary source of revenue. In this thesis, these companies are referred to as OSS vendors. Although some OSS vendors have existed for more than thirty years, how they conduct their business has not been extensively studied. Business models as a concept has been widely used in the information and communications technology (ICT) ind

Abstract:

The dissertation investigates the approach of open source hardware and its potential for a “post-growth” transformation of society, which, from an environmentalist perspective, seems necessary. Hereby it elaborates the paradigm shift attached to the idea of open source, compares them with living systems in nature and practically contributes to the open source movement in the field of rural electrification. By doing so, it compares renewable energy technologies for rural electrification from the perspective of open source applicability. The practical output hereby is the design of an open
