  • The Behringer PODCAST & RECORDING
    PODCAST & RECORDING QUICK-START GUIDE Welcome to the Behringer PODCAST & RECORDING quick-start guide Thank you for choosing one of our podcast-capable recording products. This top-notch hardware bundle lets you creatively produce professional-sounding podcasts, voice-over sessions, narration, and music projects for online distribution. If you’re a vlogger, you’ll have a superb pack of equipment to dramatically enhance the audio quality of your videos compared to the built-in camera microphone, giving your broadcasts a more professional appeal. Move up to the next step in the evolution of broadcasting and free yourself from the limitations of conventional communication. Podcasting Basics Before you get started, it is important to understand some of the terminology and uses surrounding the emerging field of podcasting. Podcasting is a term derived from the combination of the words “iPod” and “broadcasting,” and is defined as the distribution of audio or video files, such as radio programs or music clips, over the Internet. This is accomplished by using one of two syndication techniques that allow users to access media on such portable media devices as smart phones, tablets, MP3 players, and laptop computers. RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and Atom are Web content syndication formats written in XML that provide either podcast content or summaries that link to content and additional file information. Podcast is a feed of audio or video files placed on the Internet for public access. Anyone can subscribe to the feed and download the media files. This allows you to collect programs from a wide range of sources for listening or viewing media content, either online or offline with your computer or an appropriate portable device.

  • Implementation of Proactive Spam Fighting Te Niques
    Implementation of Proactive Spam Fighting Teniques Masterarbeit von Martin Gräßlin Rupret-Karls-Universität Heidelberg Betreuer: Prof. Dr. Gerhard Reinelt Prof. Dr. Felix Freiling 03. März 2010 Ehrenwörtlie Erklärung I versiere, dass i diese Masterarbeit selbstständig verfasst, nur die angegebenen ellen und Hilfsmiel verwendet und die Grundsätze und Empfehlungen „Verantwortung in der Wissensa“ der Universität Heidelberg beatet habe. Ort, Datum Martin Gräßlin Abstract One of the biggest allenges in global communication is to overcome the problem of unwanted emails, commonly referred to as spam. In the last years many approaes to reduce the number of spam emails have been proposed. Most of them have in common that the end-user is still required to verify the filtering results. ese approaes are reactive: before mails can be classified as spam in a reliable way, a set of similar mails have to be received. Spam fighting has to become proactive. Unwanted mails have to be bloed before they are delivered to the end-user’s mailbox. In this thesis the implementation of two proactive spam fighting teniques is discussed. e first concept, called Mail-Shake, introduces an authentication step before a sender is allowed to send emails to a new contact. Computers are unable to authenticate themselves and so all spam messages are automatically bloed. e development of this concept is discussed in this thesis. e second concept, called Spam Templates, is motivated by the fact that spam messages are generated from a common template. If we gain access to the template we are able to identify spam messages by mating the message against the template.

  • KDE Plasma 5
    Arvo Mägi KDE Plasma 5 Tallinn, 2017 1 Sissejuhatus KDE töökeskkonnale pani aluse saksa programmeerija Matthias Ettrich 14.10.1996. 2016. a oktoobris sai populaarne KDE seega 20. aastaseks. Hea ülevaate KDE ajaloost annab artikkel „19 Years of KDE History: Step by Step.” KDE 4.14 ilmumisega oli KDE saavutanud kasutusküpsuse, kuid edasine areng kippus takerduma – vaja oli põhimõttelisi uuendusi. Otsustati võtta kasutusele iseseisvatel moodulitel põhinev KDE 5 arhitektuur – Qt/Frameworks. Kõik KDE rakendusprogrammid, sh Plasma 5 töölaud, kasutavad ainult konkreetse rakenduse jaoks vajalikke mooduleid. Varem kasutati kõigi rakenduste jaoks ühist suurt teeki, mis raskendas muudatuste tegemist ja pidurdas arendustööd. Qt on C++ programmeerimiskeskkond. Pikaajalise toega Qt 5.9 LTS ilmus 31. mail 2017. KDE Frameworks on 70 moodulist koosnev komplekt, mis lihtsustab Qt keskkonnas KDE programmide koostamist. Frameworks veaparandused ja täiendused ilmuvad iga kuu. KDE Plasma 5 töölaud põhineb KDE Frameworksil (KF5). Töölaua veaparandused ilmuvad iga kuu, vajadusel mitu korda kuus, uued versioonid kord kvartalis. Plasma 5.8 LTS, mis on pikaajalise toega (18 kuud), ilmus 4.10.2016, veidi enne KDE 20. aastaseks saamist. Plasma 5.10 ilmus 30.05.2017. Järgmine pikaajalise toega Plasma 5.12 ilmub 2018. a jaanuaris. Plasma 5 töölaud on pälvinud palju kiitvaid hinnanguid ja sobib igapäevaseks tööks. Eeldab kaasaegset, mitme tuumaga protsessori ja piisava mäluga (vähemalt 4 GB) arvutit. SSD kettalt töötab välkkiirelt. Töölaud on keskkond rakendusprogrammide käivitamiseks ja kasutamiseks. KF5-le on üle viidud kõik KDE põhirakendused (failihaldur Dolphin, pildinäitaja Gwenview, konsool Konsole, teksti- redaktor Kate, ekraanitõmmise võtja Spectacle, videoredaktor Kdenlive, plaadikirjutaja K3b jt). Need on KDE Applications koosseisus, mille uued versioonid ilmuvad kolm korda aastas, veaparandused kord kuus.
