Abstract:

The aim of this bachelor thesis is to examine how librarians experience migration to an open source integrated library system (ILS) in order to analyze how humans and technology influence each other, in line with a socio-technical perspective. We therefore examine how the librarians’ attitudes change during the migration process, what difficulties and possibilities they see in each phase and what the significance of open source is in this context. The method used in this study is qualitative interviews with librarians in one public library and one university library that migrated to the ILS Ko

Abstract:

As the performance of PCs is increasing it is of great interest to use these cheap devices as routers,which traditionally consisted of more expensive and customized hardware for that purpose.

However as there are so many solutions out there, it can be hard for the potentialusers to choose which particular solution to use, without having to put in too much work intogetting a fully functio

Abstract:

Open Source Software is a component or an application whose source code is freely accessible and changeable by the users, subject to constraints expressed in a number of licensing modes. It implies a global alliance for developing quality software with quick bug fixing along with quick evolution of the software features. In the recent year tendency toward adoption of OSS in industrial projects has swiftly increased. Many commercial products use OSS in various fields such as embedded systems, web management systems, and mobile software’s. In addition to these, many OSSs are modified and ado

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

<p>The Open Source community seems to suffer from a lack of female developers. In this thesis I have looked at different initiatives to increase the female participation. According to other studies the percentage of female open software developers is about 1.5%. My analysis of some mailing lists for open source projects shows that this number seems to be accurate. Open source is no longer a marginalised part of the IT market, but has become a mainstream and common alternative. Broader participation will probably increase the quality of the software.</p>

Telenor IS, the information system branch of Telenor Nordic, has realized that OSS adoption is increasing and noticed the advantages that OSS might bring for them. Therefore they have started a project called Open Source 2010. Among this projects goals are

Close source software is more expensive than open source software and we can not re-use its source code, so there should be a way by which cheap and qualitative software

In recent years, there has been growing interest of governments and firms for Free and Open Source Software (FOSS). However, FOSS is still a puzzlement for a wide spectrum of academic disciplines.

In this study, motivations of FOSS hackers and firms are taken as an interrelated phenomenon. For FOSS hackers, social and technical aspects of FOSS are essential. On the contrary to FOSS hackers, firms have profit oriented goals. In thi

However, it is not clearly identified especially in the context of open source software (OSS).

Background: Open source software (OSS) and software ecosystems (SECOs) are two consolidated research areas in software engineering. The adoption of OSS by firms, governments, researchers and practitioners has been increasing rapidly in the last decades, and in consequence, they find themselves in a new kind of ecosystem composed by software communities,foundations, developers and partners, namely Open Source Software Ecosystem (OSSECO). In order to perform a systematic quality evaluation of a SECO, it is necessary to define certain types of concrete elements. This means that measures and eval

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

Abstract:

This master’s thesis addresses scaling of content distribution sites. In a case study, the thesis investigates issues encountered on ftp.acc.umu.se, a content distribution site run by the Academic Computer Club (ACC) of Umeå University. This site is characterized by the unusual situation of the external network connectivity having higher bandwidth than the components of the system, which differs from the norm of the external connectivity being the limiting factor. To address this imbalance, a caching approach is proposed to architect a system that is able to fully utilize the available network

Abstract:

The growth of open source softwares (OSS) is playing a big role in the industry. The important contributions that have been generated over the past years are found to be useful for software developers. The development method used to produce open source software is different in that it participates programmers who are interested in coding. On the other hand, software complexity is one aspect that should be raised during the development of software. It is considered as one factor linked with different characteristics of quality in software. Since there are multiple developers located in differen

Abstract:

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>This thesis explores the application of traditional survivability analysis to the open source software (OSS) development process. It postulates that combat systems face potential threats from cyber warfare professionals aiming to manipulate software embedded in the systems. The research highlights current Department of Defense (DOD) interest in OSS, and explains a method for evaluating the capability of OSS programs to withstand cyber warfare attacks. Survivability concepts are demonstrated in a scenario involving an adversary inserting
