    Creating Games ART & CS 107 Spring 2013 Schedule Revised April 24, 2013; the schedule adapts to your interests and ideas throughout the semester. Morning: TR 8:30 – 9:45am Hyperlinks are underlined. Chapter Afternoon: Thu. 1 – 4 pm reading is in McGuire and Jenkins, Office hours: (TCL 308) By appointment Creating Games, A K Peters 2008 + (I’m generally accessible–let me know when is best for you) errata TA hours: See website “Homework” is independent work due at the beginning of the following class session. I encourage you to discuss ideas with other students but your work product should solely be your own. When a written response is appropriate, note that scholarly writing includes citations to primary sources, terse style, appropriate vocabulary and tone, and proper English style. The writing center and my office hours are great resources to improve your writing. “Read” and “Play” material has no specific deadline, but should be done close to that day so that we have a common base for discussion. For games, spend at least two hours in actual gameplay, and try to play with other students in the class. Having played a game (i.e., a social and intellectual activity) with someone will help you to know if you can work together effectively on a project. Unless explicitly noted, you are welcome to play a game on a different (equivalent) platform or with your own copy instead of using the library resource. If you make a reasonable attempt to play a game and it is not available, then you can substitute a different game listed on the course web page.

It was around this time that Id Software was creating the game Doom, which actually helped push Windows as a gaming platform. Ironically it was Id that threw us our first bone. A man named Dave Taylor ported Doom to Linux the year after the original release, and he only did it because he loved Linux. In the README.Linux file Dave gave his reasons for the port: “I did this ‘cause Linux gives me a woody. It doesn’t generate revenue. Please don’t call or write us with bug reports.

    DISSERTATION Reference Architecture for Virtual Organization Verfasserin Wajeeha Khalil angestrebter akademischer Grad Doktorin der Sozial- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften (Dr.rer.soc.oec.) Wien, 2012 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 084 881 Dissertationsgebiet lt. Studienblatt: Informatik Betreuerin / Betreuer: Univ.-Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr. Erich Schikuta To my Parents... Abstract \United we stand, divided we fall" is a well known saying. We are living in the era of virtual collaborations. Resources are logical and solutions are virtual. Advancement on conceptual and technological level has enhanced the way people communicate. Everything-as-a-Service once a dream, now becoming a reality. Problem nature has also been changed over the time. Today, e-Collaborations are applied to all the domains possible. Medical, engineering, meteorology, biology, chemistry, physics, earthquake and weather forecast, social networks and so on, all are using electronic platforms. Extensive data and computing resources are in need and assistance from human experts is also becoming essential. This puts a great responsibility on Information Technology (IT) researchers and developers to provide generic platforms where user can easily communicate and solve their problems. To realize this concept, distributed computing has offered many paradigms, e.g. clus- ter, grid, cloud computing. Virtual Organization (VO) is a logical orchestration of globally dispersed resources to achieve common goals. Existing paradigms and technology is used to form Virtual Organization, but lack of standards remained a critical issue for last two decades. Our research endeavor focuses on developing a standard for Virtual Organization building process. The proposed standardization process is a two phase activity. First phase provides re- quirement analysis and the second phase presents a Reference Architecture for Vir- tual Organization (RAVO).

  • Mobile App Reputation Report
    MOBILE APP REPUTATION REPORT Summer 2014 WHITE PAPER Introduction The Appthority® App Reputation Report for summer 2014 provides an overview of the security risks behind the most popular mobile apps. For this report, Appthority App Risk Management Service analyzed the behaviors of Top 400 mobile apps: the top 100 free apps and 100 paid apps for both of the most popular mobile platforms, iOS and Android. The findings were compared against the data collected in the Summer 2013 report to provide broader insight into the evolution of the app economy and provide commentary on current app security trends. This year Appthority witnessed consistent risky app behaviors across both platforms and compiled the Top 10 Risky App Behaviors that put consumers and businesses at-risk. Appthority determined that the top risky app behaviors most often fall into one of two categories: sensitive data being captured and sensitive data being shared with third parties. What kinds of data are the most popular apps capturing and where is that data going? This report explains how risky apps access user and corporate data from mobile devices and how that data could be potentially misused. Appthority also examines which third parties are receiving or buying data. In the ongoing battle to determine which platform is more secure, iOS and Android are now nearly equal when it comes to the risky behavior of the top free apps. However, paid iOS apps surprisingly collect more data and share that information with more third parties than Android paid apps, making iOS slightly more risky than Android when it comes to data sharing.

  • Possibility of Deploying COSMOS Operating System on Personal Computers
    7th International Scientific Conference Technics and Informatics in Education Faculty of Technical Sciences, Čačak, Serbia, 25-27th May 2018 Session 2: IT Education and Practice UDC: 378:004.43 Possibility of Deploying COSMOS Operating System on Personal Computers Stefan Đokić 1*, Stefan Stanojlović 1, Dejan Vujičić 1 1University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Technical Sciences Čačak, Serbia * [email protected] Abstract: Knowing the concept and way of implementation of the operating systems is one of the most important tasks that computer experts should meet. Therefore, educational versions of operating systems are being designed and implemented. The development of such operating systems provides the opportunity for interested parties to become familiar with the possibilities of using various software tools for their realization. An example of such educational operating system is a set of program modules known as COSMOS.
