  • Chapter1 History of Computer Security
    Chapter1 History of Computer Security Those who do not learn from the past will repeat it. George Santanya Security is a journey, not a destination. Computer security has been travelling for 40 years, and counting. On this journey, the challenges faced have kept changing, as have the answers to familiar challenges. This first chapter will trace the history of computer security, putting security mechanisms into the perspective of the IT landscape they were developed for. OBJECTIVES • Give an outline of the history of computer security. • Explain the context in which familiar security mechanisms were originally developed. • Show how changes in the application of IT pose new challenges in computer security. • DiscussCOPYRIGHTED the impact of disruptive technologies MATERIAL on computer security. 2 1 HISTORY OF COMPUTER SECURITY 1.1 THE DAWN OF COMPUTER SECURITY New security challenges arise when new – or old – technologies are put to new use. The code breakers at Bletchley Park pioneered the use of electronic programmable computers during World War II [117, 233]. The first electronic computers were built in the 1940s (Colossus, EDVAC, ENIAC) and found applications in academia (Ferranti Mark I, University of Manchester), commercial organizations (LEO, J. Lyons & Co.), and government agencies (Univac I, US Census Bureau) in the early 1950s. Computer security can trace its origins back to the 1960s. Multi-user systems emerged, needing mechanisms for protecting the system from its users, and the users from each other. Protection rings (Section 5.6.4) are a concept dating from this period [108]. Two reports in the early 1970s signal the start of computer security as a field of research in its own right.

  • A Statistical Examination of the Evolution of the UNIX System
    1 IMPERIAL COLLEGE OF SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND MEDICINE University of London A Statistical Examination of The Evolution of the UNIX System by Shamim Sharifuddin Pirzada September 1988 A thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London and for the Diploma of Membership of the Imperial College. 2 ABSTRACT The UNIX system is one of the most successful operating systems in use today. However, due to its age, and in view of the tendencies of other operating systems to degenerate over time, concern has been expressed about its potential for further evolution. Modelling techniques have been proposed to view and predict the evolution of software but they have not yet been sufficiently evaluated. The project uses one such technique, developed by Lehman and others, to examine the evolution of UNIX and attempt a prognosis for its future. Hence it critically evaluates Lehman's concepts of program evolution. A brief survey of quantitative software modelling techniques is given with particular emphasis on models which predict the behaviour of software systems already in use. The development of Lehman's "Theory of Program Evolution" is reviewed and the implications of the hypotheses proposed in the theory are discussed. Also, the history of UNIX is presented as a sequence of releases from the main UNIX centres in the Bell System and the University of California, Berkeley. An attempt is made to construct statistical models of the UNIX evolution process by plotting the progress of the three main branches of the UNIX evolution tree (Research UNIX, the System V stream and BSD/UNDC) in terms of changes in various system and process attributes such as size, growth-rate, work- rate and staffing.

  • ETHERNET and the FIFTH GENERATION Gordon Bell Vice
    THE ENGINEERING OF THE VAX-11 COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT The VAX-11 architectural design and implementation began in 1975 with the goals of a wide range of system sizes and different styles of use. While much of the implementation has been "as planned", various nodes (eg. computers, disk servers) and combined structures (eg. clusters) have evolved in response to the technology forces, user requirements and constraints. The future offers even more possibilities for interesting structures. ETHERNET AND THE FIFTH GENERATION Gordon Bell Vice President, Engineering Digital Equipment Corporation In the Fifth Computer Generation, a wide variety of computers will communicate with one another. No one argues about this. The concern is about how to do it and what form the computers will take. A standard communications language is the key. I believe Ethernet is this unifying key to the 5th computer generation because it interconnects all sizes and types of computers in a passive, tightly-coupled, high performance fashion, permiting the formation of local-area networks. HOW THE JAPANESE HAVE CONVERTED WORLD INDUSTRY INTO DISTRIBUTORSHIPS -- CONCERN NOW FOR SEMICONDUCTORS AND COMPUTERS Gordon Bell Vice President Digital Equipment Corporation Abstract We all must be impressed with the intense drive, technical and manufacturing ability of the Japanese. As an island with few natural resources, and only very bright, hard working people they have set about and accomplished the market domination of virtually all manufactured consumer goods and the components and processes to make these goods (i.e., vertical integration). Currently the U.S. has a dominant position in computers and semiconductors. However, there's no fundamental reason why the Japanese won't attain a basic goal to dominate these industries, given their history in other areas and helped by our governments.

  • COMP30052 Distributed Operating Systems Chapter 1: Introduction
    COMP30052 Distributed Operating Systems Chapter 1: Introduction Chris Kirkham February 1, 2007 Books There is currently no single text book that covers all the topics in COMP30052. Andrew S. Tanenbaum and M van Steen, Distributed Systems Principles and Paradigms, • Prentice Hall 2002. Covers about 70% of the course, omitting some operating system material. Andrew S. Tanenbaum , Modern Operating Systems, 2nd edition, Prentice Hall, 2001. • Covers most of the remaining topics, about 25% of the course. Andrew S. Tanenbaum, Distributed Operating Systems, Prentice Hall 1995. This was • previously the main course textbook but is now rather dated, i.e. lacking material on newer systems. All the relevant material is now in one or other of the books listed above. Tanenbaum’s books have lots of problems at the end of each chapter which you should try to solve. Some of Tanenbaum’s material is available at http://www.prenhall.com/tanenbaum/ Jean Bacon and Tim Harris, Operating Systems: Concurrent and Distributed Software • Design, Addison Wesley 2003. Brings together operating system and database concerns in a single text. Gentle introduction to client-server and distributed systems. This book is useful but it lacks detail on some topics. Bovet and Cesati, Understanding the Linux kernel, O’Reilly 2001. Quite a readable • description with a lot of technical detail. Useful reference. Silberschatz, Galvin and Cagne, Operating System Concepts, 7th Edn Wiley 2005. Cov- • ers major sections of the course in reasonable depth but it is not the main text because it is weaker on distributed systems. It has a “with Java” version (2007). The previous edition (6th) is almost as good; it has an “XP update edition” which merely has one extra chapter on Windows XP.

  • International Computers Ltd Opracował: Andrzej Goleń – Pracownik ICL Poland W Latach 1987 -1997
    Kilka słów o ICL International Computers Ltd Opracował: Andrzej Goleń – pracownik ICL Poland w latach 1987 -1997 ICL International Computers Ltd – brytyjska korporacja komputerowa została utworzona w roku 1968 z inicjatywy Tony'ego Benna, ówczesnego brytyjskiego ministra techniki. Firma powstała w wyniku połączenia firm: International Computers and Tabulators (ICT) oraz English Electric Computers( EEC). Firmę ICL utworzono w celu zbudowania silnej brytyjskiej korporacji konkurencyjnej wobec IBM. Utworzona firma ICL prowadziła działalność w ponad 70 krajach i zatrudniała 26 000 pracowników. Podmioty tworzące ICL powstały również w wyniku procesów przejęć oraz scalania firm. Jeden z podmiotów tworzących ICL, firma English Electric Computers Ltd (EEC) powstała z scalenia firm Elliott Automation i English Electric Leo Marconi (EELM) w 1967 roku. Koncern English Electric został natomiast przejęty przez General Electric Co w 1968 roku. Firma EELM powstała z połączenia oddziału komputerowego koncernu English Electric z firmą Leo Computers (w 1963) i Marconi (w 1964 roku). Firma EELM wprowadziła na rynek serię komputerową System 4 we wrześniu 1965 roku. Firma ICT – International Computers and Tabulators Ltd swoje początki działalności oparła na maszynach tabulujących tj. technologii Hermana Holleritha. Pierwsza brytyjska firma sektora maszyn tabulujących British Tabulating Machine Company( BTM) powstała w 1907 roku. W 1911 James Power utworzył firmę konkurencyjną Powers Accounting Machines Company. W latach 20tych XX wieku brytyjskie firmy rozpoczęły produkcję oraz montaż maszyn ograniczając wcześniej realizowane zakupy maszyn w USA. Firmy BTM oraz Powers Accounting Machines Company konkurowały na rynku przez kilkadziesiąt lat. W 1959 roku mając na uwadze konkurencję firmy IBM, BTM oraz Powers Accounting Machine połączyły się tworząc International Computers and Tabulators Ltd (ICT).
