Abstract:

V současném ekonomickém prostředí je velmi silný tlak na inovace jednotlivých softwarových výrobců, poskytovatelů služeb v oblasti IT či systémových integrátorů. Předmětem konkurenčního boje se nestává produkt nebo služba jako taková, ale i forma jejího zajištění a obchodní model, který definuje kvalitu a cenu pro zákazníka. V posledních letech zaznamenáváme vzestupnou tendenci výrobců / dodavatelů softwaru nabídnout dodávku software přímo formou služby tzv. Software as a Service neboli on-demand. Primárním cílem této diplomové práce je přispět k rozvoji teoretické základny modelů Software as s Service s hlavním zaměřením na oblast kancelářských aplikací pro segment malých a středně velkých firem.

Abstract:

Stress på arbetsplatsen relaterat till många inkommande och utgående kommunikationskanaler är ett reellt problem. Applikationer som samlar alla kanaler i samma verktyg kan hjälpa till på det här området. För att förenkla vid utveckling av en sådan applikation kan ett modulärt system skapas, där varje modul ser liknande ut och enkelt kan kopplas in i en huvudapplikation. Den här studien undersöker de problem som kan uppstå när flera tjänster ska integreras, mer specifikt genom att titta på hur en befintlig modul för e-post via Google Apps kan porteras för att stödja e-post via Microsoft Office 365. Arbetet har skett enligt metoder för testdriven portering och varje steg i porteringen har dokumenterats noggrant. Ett antal problemområden har identifierats och möjliga lösningar föreslås. Utfrån de problem som uppstått dras slutsatsen att de är av en sådan karaktär att de inte utgör något hinder för en portering.

Abstract:

Idag leds företag av tre hörnstenar: kommunikation, informations- och dokumenthantering. Dessa begrepp hör ihop och förutspår framtiden för företaget. Detta är även ämnet som denna rapport berör. Rapporten beskriver 10 poängs examensarbete, som utförts som en del i vår utbildning.

Kommunikation är alltså en mänsklig handling, något som vi gör och information är det vi utbyter genom att kommunicera med varandra. Information är något som finns överallt idag och berör oss alla på olika sätt och vis. Den har olika påverkan på oss alla och vi tolkar det olika.

Genom dokumenthantering kan man effektivisera processer, rutiner och arbetsflöden, samtidigt som man ökar omfattningen och effektiviteten för företagsinformationen.

En undersökning är en form av primär data där man samlar ihop data från antingen en hel grupp eller en del av en grupp. Det finns en del olika sätt att utföra en undersökning, via till exempel telefon eller elektronisk. Vi valde att skicka ut en undersökning elektronisk som vår målgrupp fick fylla i.

Undersökningen, även kallad effektivitetstest, är kvalitativ vilket syftar till att svaren skall ha en djupare dimension än bara siffror.

Efter att ha fått klart för oss över de problem som fanns har vi även tittat på olika funktioner som kan lösa dessa problem. De flesta av funktionerna fanns i SharePoint (Server och Services). Som stöd kan man även använda funktioner i OneNote och InfoPath.

Abstract:

Rapporten behandlar utvecklingen av en portal som är tänkt att användas av alla olika delar av en företagskoncern, både som intranät, extranät och extern webbplats. Denna rapport undersöker vad som är viktigt att uppfylla för att skapa en portal av detta slag där kraven på flexibilitet är stora, samtidigt som de olika företagen i koncernen ska ha utrymme att agera både som enskilda företag och som medlemmar i en koncern. Rapporten undersöker även om tekniken SharePoint kan vara lämplig att använda i ett sådant fall samt tar upp alternativ till SharePoint. Slutsatserna är att två aspekter är särskilt viktiga i en portal av slaget som efterfrågas. Dels att portalen utformas med en tydlig struktur och väl definierade nivåer med klara uppgifter, dels att tekniken bakom portalen är anpassningsbar, öppen för vidareutvecklingar och att tekniken är modulbaserad. SharePoint uppfyller dessa aspekter och bedöms därför som lämplig att använda i en sådan portal. I den portal som rapporten avser bedöms även SharePoint vara lämpligare än de alternativa tekniker som rapporten behandlar.

Full text

Abstract:

Recent years have witnessed great improvements in ways of game controlling yielding to higher level of interaction. Release of motion controller devices radically changed the conventional ways of interaction that have been used for controlling games so far, also giving developers the opportunity of exploring various new possible ways of interaction. One of these off the shelf tools, Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360, recognizes motions of the players as game controlling inputs. Although touchless interaction is perceived to be attractive, games that mimic real life activities such as table tennis, sword fighting, baseball and golf may benefit from the player&rsquo
s holding a tangible object to get more involved into game, sensing the actions deeply. In this thesis, a tangible gameplay interaction method that senses whether or not the player holds an object in the hand
if so, detects its dimensions and incorporates the hand-held object into gameplay by projecting motions of the player accordingly, is developed using Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360. Developed algorithm is implemented on an experimental game and a user study is performed which revealed that an improved gameplay with more natural and accurate motion controlling yielding to new possible actions is achieved with the developed system.

Abstract:

Children with autism typically exhibit deficits in behavior and also in visual processing. Development and implementation of visually-cued instructional procedures, combined with electronic technology, have been used successfully to teach children with autism complex behavior chains. This study used photographic activity schedules on computer slideshow software to teach two children with autism to follow computer-mediated cues and engage in four play activities, and to transition between each activity in their homes without the presence of a trained behavior therapist. Results of this study demonstrated that these technologies can be utilized in children's homes to promote computer-mediated play behavior while eliminating the necessary cost of a home behavior therapist to prompt and supervise such activities.

Thesis, Linköping University, Department of Computer and Information Science, 2010. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:liu:diva-53708.

Full text

Abstract:

In January 2002 Bill Gates sent out the renowned "Trustworthy Computing" memo where he announced that the company would shift their focus from adding new features and functionality to security and privacy. This was what led to the formulation of the Security Development Lifecycle (SDL). This process is now mandatoryfor all development at Microsoft with meaningful business risk and/or with accessto sensitive data. The SDL led to great improvements of the number and severityof vulnerabilities in the products that went through the process. When the vulnerabilitiesin the Operation System (OS) were diminished Microsoft noticed thatthe threats moved to the application layer. This led to them wanting to spread their model to application developers. One interesting target group is mid-sized Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), mainly because there are so many of them. Finding out what development process they use today and how they would benefitfrom and could be informed about the SDL is of interest for Microsoft. Interviews with Microsoft evangelists, security experts and representatives from the target group has been preformed to get a better understanding of the situationtoday and how it could be improved. The interviews have resulted in a numberof recommendations for how to adjust the SDL and the information concerningthe process to meet mid-sized ISVs needs. A clear need for information, that is categorized and directed to the different bussiness areas in the software industry, with specific recommendations and courses of action for each of them, has beenidentified. The inter views have also resulted in a situation analysis of the security awareness at the target group today and the experts view of what activities in the SDL they would benefit from. The maturity level amongst the ISVs was found to be low and their own estimated vulnerability level was low. The estimated security awareness in the future on the other hand is high, this can be accounted for the upcoming migration to cloud services that is requested by the customersand the security issues this will lead to. One thing that is agreed upon that would be suitable to introduce is threat modeling. This requires little security knowledge yet leads to dramatic reduction in vulnerabilities. The experts have also shared improvements they think could be made on the SDL.

Bozgeyikli, Evren C. "Introducing Rolling Axis Into Motion Controlled Gameplay As A New Degree Of Freedom Using Microsoft Kinect." Master's thesis, METU, 2012. http://etd.lib.metu.edu.tr/upload/12614606/index.pdf.

Full text

Abstract:

Motion controlling is a rapidly improving area of game technologies. In the last few years, motion sensing devices for video games such as Nintendo Wii, Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360 and Sony PlayStation Move have gained popularity among players with many compatible motion controlled games. Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360 provides a controller free interaction system in which the player controls games by using only body movements. Although Kinect provides a natural way of interaction, rolling action of body joints are not recognized within the standard motion sensing scope of the tool. Aim of this thesis is to provide an improved gameplay system with an increased degree of freedom by introducing rolling axis of movement using Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360 for motion sensing. This improved gameplay system provides the players a more natural and accurate way of motion controlled interaction, eliminating unnatural gestures that are needed to be memorized to compensate for lacking of the roll movement recognition.

Abstract:

The use of electronic mail (email) has evolved from sending simple messages to task delegation and management. Most mail clients, however, have not kept up with the evolution and as a result have limited task management features available. On the other hand, while issue tracking systems offer useful task management functionality, they are not as widespread as emails and also have a few drawbacks. This thesis reports on the exploration of the integration of the ubiquitous nature of email with the task management features of issue-tracking systems. We explore this using simple ad-hoc as well as semi-automated tasks. With these two working together, tasks can be delegated from email clients without needing to switch between the two environments. It brings some of the benefits of issue tracking systems closer to our email users.The system is developed using Microsoft VisuaI Studio.NET. with the code written in C#. The eXtreme Programming (XP) methodology was used during the development of the proof-of-concept prototype that demonstrates the integration of the two environments, as we were faced at first with vague requirements bound to change, as we better understood the problem domain through our development. XP allowed us to skip an extended and comprehensive initial design process and incrementally develop the system, making refinements and extensions as we encountered the need for them. This alleviated the need to make upfront decisions that were based on minimal knowledge of what to expect during development. This thesis describes the implementation of the prototype and the decisions made with each step taken towards developing an email-based issue tracking system. With the two environments working together, we can now easily track issues from our email clients without needing to switch to another system.

Full text

Abstract:

Denna uppsats behandlar en undersökning som gjordes efter det att en gymnasieskola i Örebro migrerat från Microsoft Office till Open Office. I studien undersöktes vilka för och nackdelar som lärare upplevde efter migrationen samt vilka problem som uppstod då öppen mjukvara används i en miljö som är dominerad av proprietär mjukvara.

Det tillvägagångssätt vi valt är en metodtriangulering där vi samlat in data med hjälp av tre olika insamlingsmetoder, en litteraturstudie, kvalitativa intervjuer och en kvantitativ enkät. Dessa insamlingsmetoder utformades så att litteraturstudien var av bredare karaktär och leder till att intervjuerna blir av mer specifik karaktär som i sin tur ger oss kvantitativa frågor till enkäten.

Det vi funnit under arbetets gång är att migrationen lett till interoperabilitetsproblem med existerande proprietära system och även att filer tolkats olika av de båda kontorspaketen. Lärarna såg större skillnader mellan de båda kontorspaketen är vad skolan och kommunen förutsett och tyckte att de mer avancerade funktionerna är svårare att använda i Open Office vi har även sett en efterfrågan utbildning.

Abstract:

Today it is realized by industry that automation of software development leads to increased productivity, maintainability and higher quality. Model-Driven Development (MDD) aims to replace manual software development methods by automated methods using Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) to express domain concepts effectively. Main actors in software industry, Microsoft and IBM have recognized the need to provide technologies and tools to allow building DSLs to support MDD. On the one hand, Microsoft is building DSL Tools integrated in Visual Studio 2005; on the other hand IBM is contributing to the development of Eclipse Modeling Frameworks (EMF/GEF/GMF), both tools aim to make development and deployment of DSLs easier. Software practitioners seek for guidelines regarding how to adopt these tools. In this thesis, the author presents the current state-of-the-art in MDD standards and Domain-Specific Modeling (DSM). Furthermore, the author presents current state-of-the-tools for DSM and performs a comparison of Microsoft DSL Tools and Eclipse EMF/GEF/GMF Frameworks based on a set of evaluation criteria. For the purpose of comparison the author developed two DSL designers (one by using each DSM tool). Based on the experiences gained in development of these DSL designers, the author prepared guidelines regarding how to adopt these tools to existing development environments as well as their advantages and drawbacks.

Increasing speed of networks and worldwide availability has made the World Wide Web the most significant medium for information exchange. Web technologies have become more and more important as large and small businesses continue to make their presence on the web. Today's businesses have more than just a "face" on the worldwide web. The use of a web browser is no longer restricted to viewing static pages. Browsers are becoming more and more a standard interface to a multifaceted reign of programs that live on the worldwide web. Two main technologies stand out for the implementation of web applications, Sun Microsystems' Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) and Microsoft' Dot Net Framework. The purpose of this study is to provide an unbiased comparison of the two technologies based on performance and other software qualities.

Full text

Abstract:

A new method for making software is stealthily gaining ground in the computer industry, offering a promise of better, cheaper software and the empowerment of the user. The open source movement could revolutionize the software industry...if it succeeds. Open source means software that you are allowed to copy, modify, and give to friends. Source code , the lists of instructions which tell computers how to run, is readily available, allowing you to look inside the workings of a program and change it to suit your needs. A group of programmers, companies, users, and activists have gathered in support of this empowering technology, seeking to persuade businesses and users that open source is the way to go. However, open source faces stiff challenges. The economic basis for the software industry is to charge users by the copy when they buy software. Copying and modification are illegal. The industry and its customers are so mired in this worldview that the idea of giving out a program's "recipe," along with a license to change or copy it at will, seems preposterous. Powerful players in the software industry, such as Microsoft, see open source as a threat to their bottom line, and have devoted their energies to discrediting and marginalizing the movement. Beginning from the assumption that cheap, reliable software that empowers the user is a good thing, this thesis looks at the claims made by advocates about the benefits of open source. I explore how the advocates make their case to the business world, the public, and government. I also look at ways in which the government could help bring about an open source revolution, using the policy tools of procurement, research funding, standards enforcement, and antitrust law. I conclude that programmers and public interest lobbyists must join forces to carry this revolution forward, and that the time for action is now, while Microsoft is on trial.

Abstract:

Cloud Computing is becoming increasingly popular, with large amounts of corporations revenue coming in from various cloud solutions offered to customers. When it comes to choosing a solution, multiple options exist for the same problem from many competitors. This report focuses on the ones offered by Microsoft in their Azure platform, and compares the architectures in terms of performance and scalability.In order to determine the most suitable architecture, three offered by Azure are considered: Cloud Services (CS), Service Fabric Mesh (SFM) and Virtual Machines (VM). By developing and deploying a REST Web API to each service and performing a load test, average response times in milliseconds are measured and compared. To determine scalability, the point at which each service starts timing out requests is identified. The services are tested both by scaling up, by increasing the power of a single instance of a machine, and by scaling out, if possible, by duplicating instances of machines running in parallel.The results show that VMs fall considerably behind both CS and SFM in both performance and scalability, for a regular use case. For low amounts of requests, all services perform about the same, but as soon as the requests increase, it is clear that both SFM and CS outperform VMs. In the end, CS comes ahead both in terms of scalability and performance.Further research may be done into other platforms which offer the same service solutions, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud, or other architectures within Azure.
Molntjänster blir alltmer populära i dagens industri, där stora mängder av företagens omsättning består av tjänster erbjudna i form av molnlösningar. När det kommer till att välja en lösning finns många för samma problem, där det är upp till kunden att välja vilken som passar bäst. Denna rapport fokuserar på tjänster erbjudna av Microsofts Azure plattform, i en jämförelse av arkitekturer som belastningstestas för att mäta prestanda och skalbarhet.För att avgöra vilken arkitektur som är optimalast mäts tre olika tjänster erbjudna i Azure: Cloud Services (CS), Service Fabric Mesh (SFM) och Virtual Machines (VM). Detta görs genom att utveckla och deploya ett REST Web API som är simulerat med användare, där prestanda mäts genom att ta medelresponstiden i millisekunder per anrop. För att avgöra skalbarhet identifieras en punkt där tjänsten inte längre klarar av antalet inkommande anrop och börjar returnera felkoder. Maskinerna för varje tjänst testas både genom att skala upp, genom att förstärka en maskin, men även genom att skala ut, där det skapas flera instanser av samma maskin.Resultatet visar att Virtual Machines hamnar betydligt efter både CS och SFM i både prestanda och skalbarhet för ett vanligt användarfall. För låga mängder anrop ligger samtliga tjänster väldigt lika, men så fort anropen börjar öka så märks det tydligt att SFM och CS presterar bättre än Virtual Machines. I slutändan ligger CS i framkant, både i form av prestanda och skalbarhet.Vidare undersökning kan göras för de olika plattformarna erbjudna av konkurrenter, så som Amazon Web Services (AWS) och Google Cloud, samt andra arkitekturer från Azure.

Afin de modéliser les architectures logicielles, un nouveau type de langage est apparu : les langages de description d'architectures (ADL, Architecture Description Language). Divers ADL ont été proposés dans la littérature, mais ces ADL sont restreints à la modélisation d'architectures abstraites, indépendantes des plateformes d'implémentation. Lors de l'implémentation, l'architecture n'est plus représentée. Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le domaine des ADL et porte sur la définition et la mise en œuvre d'un langage pour la concrétisation, c'est-à-dire l'implémentation explicite, d'architectures logicielles. Elle adresse le problème de la construction d'un tel langage et son système d'exécution. Pour cela elle aborde le problème d'un point de vue nouveau : la construction d'un langage centré sur l'architecture logicielle. Assis sur des bases formelles, notamment sur le π-calcul et π-ADL, ces travaux ont donné lieu à un langage formel pour décrire et garantir l'intégrité architecturale d'un système au niveau de sa spécification, de son implémentation et de ses évolutions ultérieures. La machine virtuelle et le compilateur associé sont enfouis dans la plateforme .NET.

Abstract:

This thesis attempts to show the contribution of Geographic Information System to urban planning process in Turkey. GIS can enhance the planning system by providing an access to accurate, reliable and update geographical information, producing alternatives according to the scenario and ensuring participation in the evaluation of the alternatives. This is the high level contribution of GIS for the enhancement of planning. The contribution can occur
if certain conditions are sustained such as establishment of geographical data provision system among public institutions. Obviously, these are connected with available technical and social infrastructure. Although, there is not a digital infrastructure system among the public institutions, several general directorates have started to provide some geographical information in their works. These efforts should be increased in quality and quantity. From the planning point of view, we argue that these are not even at satisfying level to work with the GIS in the plan-making processes. To prove our argument, the use of GIS and technology in the Bank of Provinces and private planning offices are inquired. The results of the thesis study show that the Bank of Provinces is in the transition period for the use of GIS. Private planning offices are in the initial stage and some of them seem unable to adopt themselves if the plan-making process becomes digital, because of the extra costs for them. Therefore, geographical data provision policies among public planning institutions will determine the future development of GIS in the planning process.

Abstract:

Model View Controller (MVC) software architecture is widely spread and commonly used in application’s development. Therefore generation of data layer for the database model is able to reduce cost and time. After research on current Object Relational Mapping (ORM) tools, it was discovered that there are generating tools like Data Access Object (DAO) and Hibernate, however their usage causes problems like inefficiency and slow performance due to many connections with database and set up time. Most of these tools are trying to solve specific problems rather than generating a data layer which is an important component and the bottom layer of database centred applications. The proposed solution to the problem is an engineering approach where we have designed a tool named Generated Intelligent Data Layer (GIDL). GIDL tool generates small models which create the main data layer of the system according to the Database Model. The goal of this tool is to enable and allow software developers to work only with object without deep knowledge in SQL. The problem of transaction and commit is solved by the tool. Also filter objects are constructed for filtering the database. GIDL tool reduced the number of connections and also have a cache where to store object lists and modify them. The tool is compared under the same environment with Hibernate and showed a better performance in terms of time evaluations for the same functions. GIDL tool is beneficial for software developers, because it generates the entire data layer.

Recently targeted attack has become very popular since remote exploitation is getting more difficult. Malicious documents are the major threats now for users as well as corporations, such as recent "Google attack" and "Aurora exploit". It is not easy to detect. Traditional signature based detection is almost useless, because it is easy to make a variant and easy to customize a malicious document. Popular applications and document formats are all hacker's target, Office documents, PDF, Flash, and malicious web pages, all can be used in targeted attack. In order to against exploits, Microsoft introduced a lot of mitigation mechanisms, such as DEP and ASLR. These modern memory protection techniques make it more difficult for hackers. It is not easy to make an effective exploit as before. Most of traditional office exploits cannot work under such protections. Traditional office exploits usually use 'stack overflow' and 'vtable overwrite' techniques. In this kind of attack, usually the exploit can only for specific platform, i.e., you need to customize your exploit for each version of Windows and Office. Also, although 'ret2lib' can be used to bypass DEP, it is not able to defeat ASLR. The JIT spraying technique could be used to against ASLR. However, it is only useful in browser attack (.NET and flash). So, we are going to illustrate new techniques to against memory protections for Office vulnerability researchers. In chapter 2 and 3, we will present how we defeat DEP and ASLR effectively. In chapter 4, we will show you a way to attack office without any memory hard works.In chapter 5, we will proposed conclusions and future research directions.

Abstract:

Die vorliegende Dissertation beschäftig sich mit der Fragestellung, warum es nur bestimmten Softwareprogrammen vorbehalten ist sich zu einer Standardsoftware zu entwickeln, bzw. diesen Status zu erhalten. Die Diskussion, die Definition und die Anwendung von Standards in den unterschiedlichsten Bereichen stellt zunehmend ein zentrales Arguments des Erfolges oder Misserfolges einer Technologie dar. Der Schwerpunkt dieser Dissertation liegt im informationstechnologischen Bereich, der die Basis des Instrumentariums technologischer, ökonomischer, soziologischer und psychologischer Handlungsweisen wesentlich beeinflusst. Nahe liegend ist hier eine direkte Betrachtung der Mensch-Maschine Schnittstelle. In diesem Zusammenhang wird oft von Standards gesprochen, oder gar darauf hingewiesen das vieles standardisiert sei. Fast jeder kennt den Begriff der „Standardsoftware“, der einen sehr guten Ansatzpunkt bietet, diesen genauer zu untersuchen, denn darf man eine Software Standardsoftware nennen, oder ist es vielmehr ein Softwarestandard? Diese vermeintliche rein formale Betrachtung impliziert viel mehr, als nur eine reine fokussierte Betrachtung von Software. Eine entsprechende Untersuchung, bedingt die Auswahl einer entsprechenden Software als Beispiel, so stellt die „Standardsoftware“ Microsoft Office, historisch wie gegenwärtig, einen interessanten Untersuchungsgegenstand dar.

Abstract:

In order for an agent to be considered both an interface agent and autonomous, it follows that there must be some part of the interface that the agent must operate in an autonomous fashion. The user must be able to directly observe autonomous actions of the agent and the agent must be able to observe actions taken autonomously by the user in the interface The ability of a software agent to operate the same interface operated by the human user, and the ability of a software agent to act independently of, and concurrently with, the human user will become increasingly important characteristics of human-computer interaction. Agents will observe what human users do when they interact with interfaces, and provide assistance by manipulating the interface themselves, while the user is thinking or performing other operations. Increasingly, applications will be designed to be operated simultaneously by users and their agents [1]. This study is motivated by the need to solve a problem of human resource optimization in the first year informatics practical course as presented by the R.A.U. Standard Bank Academy for Information Technology. The major aim being the development of a prototype system capable of automatically grading first year Microsoft Visual Basic.Net applications. The prototype system will ultimately render assistants obsolete in the grading process and free the assistants to help students with problems related to the informatics course. Developing the envisaged prototype requires much preliminary reading on artificial intelligence and its applications, more specifically autonomous interface agent architecture. Case-based reasoning and machine learning has been identified as having great potential and applicability in the development and implementation of the envisaged prototype and for this reason these topics will provide a foundation on which to build this dissertation.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis endeavors to determine the feasibility of design metrics as a predictor of attack surface size by finding a positive correlation between one or more design metrics and an application’s attack surface measurement. An attack surface is the set of ways in which an adversary can enter a system and potentially cause damage. For an experimental setting, six open-source java-based projects were analyzed. For each project, the attack surface is assessed using Microsoft’s Attack Surface Analyzer, which takes a snapshot of a system state before and after the installation of product(s) and displays the changes to a number of key elements of the Windows attack surface. A collection of design metrics was collected from each open-source project as well. The goal is to find a metric or set of metrics that predicted the attack surface changes identified by the Attack Surface Analyzer.

Abstract:

Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of the Master of Technology Degree in Information Technology, Durban University of Technology, Durban, South Africa, 2014.
The implementation of Microsoft (MS) technologies and solutions as organisational infrastructure within the higher education arena has become a popular choice both internationally and within South Africa. With benefits such as reduced costs, improved productivity and improved service delivery to both staff and students, MS technologies and solutions seem to be the preferred choice for many institutions worldwide. The Durban University of Technology (DUT) was the first university of technology in South Africa to implement all nine MS technologies simultaneously. Since migration to the MS platform in 2009, DUT staff have raised concerns regarding the new solutions, particularly with reference to aspects such as security, accessibility, and reluctance to use self-help tools to improve their IT experience. Migrating from a non-integrated system to an integrated MS platform thus resulted in IT service delivery becoming a contentious issue. . This study discussed: the quality of IT service delivery regarding the MS infrastructure within the DUT; the types of MS technologies and solutions implemented; the resulting impact that these have had on the full time administrative and academic staff at the DUT; and their perceptions and expectations of IT service delivery. Using a mixed methods research approach and underpinned by the modified SERVQUAL framework viz. RATER, the quality of this service was investigated. This study yielded both positive and negative findings regarding expectations and perceptions of the quality of IT services. Results indicated that although staff were generally positive about the migration and satisfied with the resulting IT service delivery, there was room for improvement in terms of the quality of IT services offered by DUT’s Information Technology Support Services Department. Based on the findings, recommendations for improved IT service delivery (ITSD) and IT service management (ITSM) were proposed. It was also recommended that the framework deemed most suitable in the MS dominant IT infrastructure, is the MS Operations framework.

Abstract:

Organizations typically have a reason for deciding to implement a particular business application, for example an Enterprise Resources Planning or a Human Resources management system. The reasons run the entire gamut from wanting to be the first (thus gaining a competitive edge) to playing catch-up (herd mentality perhaps) if everyone is deploying the solution. In between these extremes, there are organizations which take a technology agnostic view and thus set out to garner a good understanding of business challenges, opportunities, threats and risks to mitigate before seeking to deploy a particular solution. The objective of this study was to understand the business drivers and thought processes that the University of KwaZulu-Natal followed in selecting Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 technology. It was also the objective of the study to understand the deployment model chosen as well as understanding the attendant corporate governance put in place as well as the usage patterns once operational. The study followed a qualitative research format primarily using case study as the research design. Qualitative research was chosen because it is amenable to the collection, analysis and interpretation of data that cannot be easily or meaningfully quantified and summarized in the form of numbers. The case study research design was chosen because it allows the researcher to focus on one instance of a ‘thing’ to be investigated which then becomes the subject of an in-depth study using interviews and observation as a primary tool for data generation. A major finding of the study was that the University of KwaZulu-Natal followed an organic bottom-up approach which typically starts by providing collaborative sites and, as users find values in these sites, the implementation grows organically over a period of time. Another major finding was the absence of a formal documented corporate governance model that would include a SharePoint Delivery Plan for the organization. Consequently, of the four colleges within the university, only one college uses SharePoint technology. The adoption rate at the cluster or support services level is also markedly low.

The development of Information Technology (IT) is flipping education pattern. In student-centric and social-network-booming era as today, the building of learning curriculums on clouds to enhance learning performance has been remarkable. This research focuses on the discovery of impact factors for web-based cooperative learning platforms such as SharePoint Online of Microsoft Office 365 and presents an example of Java programing course for the students in university who majors at computer science. This issue is beneficial to find out the differences of learning performance in various curriculum designs. A quasi- experiment method is employed to proceed the statistics analysis and to deeply explore the impacts of personnel, personality traits, learning style and computer anxiety on learning performance including satisfaction and achievement of learners. The findings of this research are (1)The Agreeableness of female is more obvious than that of male; (2) The personality of Conscientiousness personality is notably correlated to learning time; (3) Personality and computer anxiety are positively correlated to learning satisfaction; (4) personality is positively relate to learning achievement; (5) Learning style and computer anxiety are not related to learning satisfaction and learning achievement; (6) Agreeable personality is associated with assimilating type of learning style. In addition, there are more than 30% of investigated learners, who present the co-existence of at least two personalities in this research. The co-existence of personalities will be the next issue of learning performances in future work.

The theme to be investigated in this research is the ec- onomic effects of the air-conditioner's energy economization of the air-conditioner's energy economization equipment. One of the 2 motives of this research is that in the viewpoint of energy , the air-conditioner's energy economization equipment , which has been under great concern in recent years , really has the effect of energy economization , but in fact it is the economic effects which have greater influence in the implementation effects. Ano- ther motive is that the explanation theory concerning the air- conditioning equipment's energy consumption , i.e. ENVLOAD-PACS index, including the air- conditioner's energy economization equ- ipme, has been developed to maturity, it is sufficient enough to support this research. The result of this research is a concrete presentation in a conversational computer softeware. This software can eval- uate the economic effects of the air- conditioner's energy econo- mization equipment in any building under any condition. It hides the complicated energy theories and trivial calculation of econ- omics, behind the simple input and easy output, so as to provide an effective and fast evaluation in the stages of design and planning. Being a computer advisor , this software is included in the BEEP-C (consultant) of the family programme, BEEP (Build- ing Energy Evaluat ion Programme) in this research room. Another result of this research is to strengthen the ju- stification ability of PACS index towards the rational relation- ship between the coldness reserve rate by volume of coldness reserve air- conditioning system, and the reduction rate of main machine. And based on this, the economization rate of energy of PASC index towards coldness reserve air-conditioner, is known to be ? and ?'.This research paper is divided into 5 chapters and 2 appendices .

This study has investigated the effectiveness of available tools used for translating from English into Tshivenḓa and vice versa with the aim to investigate and determine the effectiveness of these tools. This study dealt with the problem of lack of effective translation tools used to translate between English and Tshivenḓa. Tshivenḓa is one of South Africa’s minority languages. Its (Tshivenḓa) lack of effective translation tools negatively affects language practitioners’ work. This situation is perilous for translation quality assurance. Translation tools, both computer technology and non-computer technology tools abound for developed languages such as English, French and others. Based on the results of this research project, the researcher did make recommendations that could remedy the situation. South Africa is a democratic country that has a number of language-related policies. This then creates a conducive context for stakeholders with language passion to fully develop Tshivenḓa language in all dimensions. The fact is that all languages have evolved and they were all underdeveloped. This vividly shows that Tshivenḓa language development is also possible just like Afrikaans, which never existed on earth before 1652. It (Afrikaans) has evolved and overtaken all indigenous South African languages. This study did review the literature regarding translation and translation tools. The literature was obtained from both published and unpublished sources. The study has used mixed methods research, i.e. quantitative and qualitative research methods. These methods successfully complemented each other throughout the entire research. Data were gathered through questionnaires and interviews wherein both open and closed-ended questions were employed. Both purposive/judgemental and snowball (chain) sampling have been applied in this study. Data analysis was addressed through a combination of methods owing to the nature of mixed methods research. Guided by analytic comparison approach when grouping together related data during data analysis and presentation, both statistical and textual analyses have been vital in this study. Themes were constructed to lucidly present the gathered data. At the last chapters, the researcher discussed the findings and evaluated the entire research before making recommendations and conclusion.
