Dissertations / Theses on the topic 'Google Chrome'

Thesis deals with the operating system Google Chrome. First, the system is described (how it works, its user interface). Next there is a characteristic of applications that can be downloaded to the system and how they work. Another part is devoted to security, which consists of several elements. The end of the theoretical part is focused on Chromebooks - devices in which the operating system is sold on the market. The practical part is firstly characterized Dart programming language, which is then used for an application. This application shows not only work with the language, but also the benefits of Google Apps. It also shows compatibility with Windows and compares these two systems. In conclusion are described advantages and disadvantages of Chrome system and summarizes all knowledge arising from this work.

In my thesis, I focus on the operating system Google Chrome OS, determination of its characteristics, definition of target group of the operating system's users and comparison of available applications with those available for other operating systems. In the theoretical part, historical development of Google is analysed first, followed by the issue of Google Chrome web browser and analyse of the operating system Google Chrome OS. The practical part starts with evaluation of survey on the operating system Google Chrome OS and is followed by multi-criteria analysis of variants comparing various categories of applications available for the operating system Google Chrome OS and other operating systems, in this case represented by the operating system Microsoft Windows 8.1 and distribution of Linux operating system Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

The thesis is focused on the characteristics of the key features of the operating system Google Chrome OS and on the evaluation of deployment of this operating system in practise. The theoretical part describes the purpose and philosophy of the commercial operating system Google Chrome OS and its relation with Chrome web browser. The connection with open-source projects Chromium and Chromium OS is explained. Details of application development and deployment options, in the form of virtualization and domain administration, are analysed. The practical part applies theoretical knowledge from the development of applications for Chrome OS to create thin client application for remote control of hardware sensor over the internet. This sensor is designed and built on the platform Arduino. The sensor measures the temperature and humidity of the ambient air and remote controls high-voltage switching relays. Communication over TCP/IP uses modern MQTT protocol, for which the server is configured with MQTT Broker Mosquitto. The next section demonstrates the procedure for building a customized build of Chromium OS from the publicly provided Google source codes. Based on the evaluation of the acquired theoretical and practical knowledge, I assess the possibility of deploying the Chrome OS in private and commercial areas.

The increased popularity of Google Chromebooks due to their ease of use, security features and low price have contributed to explosive growth in terms of their market share in the personal computing marketplace. This growing market share will result in Chromebooks becoming part of new and ongoing forensic investigations. It is important for forensic investigators to have a strong understanding of the forensic artifacts found on a Google Chromebook. The investigators need to know what these artifacts mean and how to acquire them. A Google Chromebook uses the Google Chrome Operating System for its operating system. The purpose for the research was to begin developing the necessary art in support of forensic examiners tasked with investigating Google Chromebooks and the data they use.

The presence of learning in organizations is important for success and survival. Recent research into open source software developers has primarily suggested a social constructivist view where knowledge is constructed in the social relationships within the team culture. I report results from a case study that investigated the presence of situated learning among open source developers at an earlier time of a project. Thirty-eight developers were systematically selected and examined on their performance, experience and roles during ten months of maintenance work. I followed a model of learning curve effects that associated the improvement in the average resolving time with the accumulated experience. I found a strong relationship between the two variables and confirmed the presence of learning. In addition, I found a less convincing evidence to affirm knowledge depreciated among open source software developers. The depreciation factor was estimated to be 94 percent, compared to other studies which ranged between 65 to 85 percent. An additional investigation was conducted around the organization structure to understand whether core and peripheral members have different average resolving time. The finding was inconclusive to claim both groups have different means towards issue resolution. The consistency in the result of this thesis and several other related research efforts suggests that learning is likely to be an intrinsic characteristic of open source software development rather than just a speculation in the literatures.

Le estensioni per i browser vantano modelli di progettazione differenti, spesso totalmente incompatibili tra loro. Polymorph, l'applicazione presentata dalla tesi, ha lo scopo di agevolare il programmatore durante la progettazione di estensioni per browser adattandole ai differenti modelli di progettazione. La tesi si focalizza in particolare sui modelli di progettazione delle estensioni offerti da Google Chrome e da Safari. L'applicazione è in grado di riconoscere i frammenti di codice più importanti di queste estensioni, aiutando il programmatore sulle problematiche principali come la memorizzazione dei dati o lo scambio dei messaggi tra lo script interno e lo script esterno di queste applicazioni, operazioni mediate da Chrome e Safari con politiche e tecniche differenti.

The availability of prospective customer information present on social media platforms has led to many marketing and customer-facing departments utilizing social media data in processes such as demographics research, and sales and campaign planning. However, if your business needs require further filtration of data, beyond what is provided by existing filters, the volume and rate at which data can be manually sifted, is constrained by the speed and accuracy of employees, and their digital competency. The repetitive nature of filtration work, lends itself to automation, that ultimately has the potential to alleviate large productivity bottlenecks, enabling organizations to distill larger volumes of unfiltered data, faster and with greater precision. This project employs automation and artificial intelligence, to filter Linkedin profiles using customized selection criteria, beyond what is currently available, such as nationality and age. By introducing the ability to produce tailored indices of social media data, automated filtration offers organizations the opportunity to better utilize rich prospective data for more efficient customer review and targeting.

Tracking Internet users is one of the most controversial and discussed IT topic nowadays. Except of the publicly known tracking by marketing agencies, there even appeared secret methods of surface monitoring of USA population. Because, as shown in this thesis, majority of existing tools for defence against tracking on the Internet are cooperating with trackers, the goal of this thesis is to develop independent defend tool that would block tracking. After mentioning the motivation for tracking and its history there are analysed all known and widespread tracking methods in detail. The two following sections of the thesis are describing the world biggest companies performing the user tracking and their tools and options to defend against each method of tracking by available defensive tools. The practical part of the thesis contains the description, example of usage and manual for developed defensive tool, that protects users on the Internet against the most widespread tracking methods by restricting communication with suspicious 3-rd party servers.

Negli ultimi anni il tema dell’economia della condivisione ha assunto un piano sempre più attuale, lo sviluppo delle tecnologie mobile, contempora- neamente, è in continua ed esponenziale crescita, le applicazioni necessitano sempre più di un accesso alla rete internet sicuro ed efficiente. Questa tesi è incentrata sullo sviluppo di un’applicazione per sistemi An- droid che consenta la creazione di un network di utenti e permetta loro di condividere il proprio router casalingo. I dispositivi condivisi saranno collocati sulla mappa tramite un algoritmo di posizionamento che abbina le meccaniche di geolocalizzazione a quelle del WiFi Manager presente sui dispositivi. Selezionando l’hotspot più vicino sarà quindi possibile richiedere la con- nessione per un periodo limitato di tempo così da avere accesso ai servizi Facebook, Instagram, Maps e YouTube. Per la progettazione e l’implementazione di Apostrofe sono stati affron- tati e approfonditi argomenti riguardanti: l’implementazione di un algorit- mo di posizionamento , l’implementazione di un web service , cifratura e trasmissione dati tramite protocollo HTTP .

The aim of the thesis was to design, implement and evaluate the results of automatic tests for the JavaScript Restrictor project, which is being developed as a web browser extension. The tests are divided into three levels - unit, integration, and system. The Unit Tests verify the behavior of individual features, the Integration Tests verify the correct wrapping of browser API endpoints, and the System Tests check that the extension does not suppress the desired functionality of web pages. The System Tests are implemented for parallel execution in a distributed environment which has succeeded in achieving an almost directly proportional reduction in time with respect to the number of the tested nodes. The benefit of this work is detection of previously unknown errors in the JavaScript Restrictor extension and provision of the necessary information that allowed to fix some of the detected bugs.

The study presents a resource-decentralized network architecture to solve the problems in online streaming services, such as network bottlenecks and the waste of network bandwidth. We have designed a streaming proxy system based on a simple concept: “people who want to pick up the groceries usually would go to a local convenience store instead of a faraway shopping mall.” and have initially implemented it on top of Google Chrome. The extendable system is compatible with existing applications and can solve the problems in current streaming services to bring better streaming experiences to people.

Relatório Final de Estágio do Mestrado em Engenharia Informática apresentado à Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade de Coimbra.
Com a chegada em massa de smartphones e a possibilidade de acesso fácil à internet através dos mesmos, as aplicações OTT (Over-The-Top) têm vindo a ser cada vez mais utilizadas por um maior número de pessoas. Aplicações como o Facebook Messenger ou o Skype permitem a qualquer pessoa com ligação à internet comunicar com outra em qualquer canto do mundo, de forma gratuita. Devido a este fenómeno, as operadoras móveis têm vindo a ter receitas cada vez mais baixas, tornando as aplicações OTT numa forte ameaça. Tendo em vista a mitigação deste problema, a GSM Association criou o RCS (Rich Communication Service), que consiste numa especificação de um conjunto de funcionalidades e serviços feita com a concordância quer de várias operadoras móveis, quer de companhias relacionadas com suporte, desenvolvimento, promoção e normalização do GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication). O objetivo deste projeto é apresentar ao cliente uma aplicação RCS que sirva de alternativa ao telemóvel, de fácil e rápido acesso, dentro do computador. A aplicação é iniciada com o sistema operativo e tem todas as principais funcionalidades de um telemóvel como: lista de contactos, envio de mensagens (chat e SMS), chamadas (vídeo e voz) e partilha de ficheiros.
With the massive arrival of smartphones and the possibility of easy access to internet, the OTT applications (Over-The-Top) have been increasingly used. Applications such as Facebook Messenger or Skype allow anyone with an Internet connection to communicate with another person in any other place in the world, for free. Because of this, mobile operators revenues have been falling, making OTT applications a real threat. In order to minimize this problem, GSM Association created RCS (Rich Communication Service). RCS is a specification of a set of features and services made on the agreement of several mobile operators and companies related with the support, development, promotion and standardization of GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication). The goal of this project is to give the customer a RCS application that serves a fast and easy access alternative to the mobile phone. The application starts as soon as the operating system starts and has all the main features of a mobile phone such as contacts list, messaging (chat and SMS), calls (video and voice) and file sharing.

Product Reaction Cards, também designado por Microsoft Desirability Toolkit permiteavaliar as emoções dos utilizadores quando utilizam um site. Este teste contém 118cartões e cada cartão contém uma palavra que se refere a um possível sentimentoque o utilizador poderá sentir durante a experiência. Os sentimentos podem serpositivos ou negativos.O projecto prende-se com a criação de uma Widget HTML. Pretende-se com estaferramenta perceber se é possível obter-se os mesmos resultados ou semelhantesque se consegue obter com os PRC de forma a se aplicar os PRC num site emprodução sem necessidade de se efectuar testes formais de usabilidade, pois estestestes implicam a utilização de muitos recurso, tais como, laboratório, avaliadores,contactar pessoas, entre outros.Para se fazer a análise vai ser feita uma recolha de dados com a Widget inserindo-aem sites com mais visualizações. Para se saber que sites utilizar realizou-se umquestionário online.Depois dos dados recolhidos com a Widget verificou-se quais os sites com maisrespostas para se fazer os testes de usabilidade tradicionais com os PRC. Por fim,compara-se os dados recolhidos com a Widget HTML e os PRC.Este projeto irá permitir trabalhar nas áreas de Web Design e Programação Web,utilizando as linguagens Web HTML5, CSS, JavaScript e PHP.Para além da criação da Widget HTML criou-se um site que permite simular o serviçoque fornece a ferramenta. Com este site resolvem-se alguns problemas relativos àadaptação da Widget a todos os sites e aos interesses do cliente (e.g.: número depalavras que pretende que apareçam e que dados demográficos pretende recolher).Para além disso no fim da criação da Widget fizeram-se testes de usabilidade quepermitiram descobrir que os utilizadores tinha dificuldade em descobrir o botão deFeedback da Widget HTML. Através dos resultados e de uma conversa com osutilizadores percebeu-se que a Widget deveria ser personalizada pelos proprietáriosdos site de forma a chamar a atenção e a aparecer de forma harmoniosa no site, poisnão se pode ter um único design para todos os sites, sendo este mais um factor afavor de um serviço de personalização da Widget por parte do cliente.
Product Reaction Cards also referred to as the Microsoft Desirability Toolkit, allows youto evaluate the emotions of users when they use a website. This test contains 118cards and each card contains a word that refers to a possible feeling the user mayexperience during the experiment. Feelings can be positive or negative.The project is about creating an HTML Widget. It is intended with this tool to see if it ispossible to obtain the same or similar results that can be obtained with the PRC inorder to apply the PRC in a site in production without the need to perform formalusability tests, since these tests imply the use of many resource, such as, laboratory,evaluators, contact people, among others.To do the analysis will be done a data collection with the Widget by inserting it in siteswith more views. To know which sites to use, an online questionnaire was conducted.After the data collected with the Widget we verified which sites have the most answersto do the traditional usability tests with the PRC. Finally, we compare the data collectedwith the HTML Widget and the PRC.This project will allow working in the areas of Web Design and Web Programming,using HTML5, CSS, JavaScript and PHP Web languages.In addition to the creation of the HTML Widget we created a website that allows you tosimulate the service provided by the tool. This site solves some problems related to theadaptation of the Widget to all sites and customer interests (eg, number of words thatyou want to appear and what demographic data you want to collect). Also at the end ofthe creation of the Widget were made usability tests that allowed to discover that theusers had difficulty in finding the Feedback button of the HTML Widget. Through theresults and a conversation with the users it was noticed that the Widget should becustomized by the site owners in order to attract attention and to appear harmoniouslyin the site, since you can not have a single design for all the sites , this being one morefactor in favor of a service of personalization of the Widget by the client.

One of the problems of semantic web is automated getting annotated data - web pages. Therefore this work is engaged in manual annotation of web pages and try to simplify this process for users using proposed methods. First part contains analysis of annotated data, users and vocabularies used for annotation. Afterwards are proposed methods which simplify annotation creation for users, the possibility of usage similar annotations or possibility highlight interesting parts of web page suitable for annotation. The work includes proposal of annotation tool user interface also that verifies proposed methods in practice. On the basis of this proposal was created a prototype implementation of the annotation tool Semantic Annotator as an extension for Google Chrome browser, which was also used for experiment verifying user-friendliness especially.
