  • SEJARAH SINGKAT LINUX MINT Linux Mint Adalah Salah Satu Dari Paket Kejutan Dari Tahun Lalu
    SEJARAH SINGKAT LINUX MINT Linux Mint adalah salah satu dari paket kejutan dari tahun lalu. Awalnya diluncurkan sebagai varian dari Ubuntu dengan codec media terintegrasi, maka kini telah berkembang menjadi salah satu yang paling user-friendly distribusi di pasar - lengkap dengan desktop dan menu custom, beberapa peralatan konfigurasi unik, yang berbasis web antarmuka instalasi paket, dan sejumlah edisi yang berbeda. Mungkin yang paling penting, ini adalah salah satu proyek di mana para pengembang dan pengguna berada dalam interaksi yang konstan, sehingga dramatis, pengguna-didorong melakukan perbaikan dengan setiap rilis baru. DistroWatch telah berbicara kepada para pendiri dan pemimpin pengembang Linux Mint, Clement Lefebvre, tentang sejarah distribusi. Linux Mint adalah sebuah distro Linux Live CD yang diturunkan dari distro Ubuntu, dengan tujuan untuk memproduksi sebuah distro dengan desktop yang elegan, up to date, dan nyaman digunakan. Linux Mint didesain untuk berjalan out-of-the-box dengan semua fasilitas yang telah terinstall di dalamnya. Versi distro ini adalah versi 4.0 dengan kode Daryna. Mint 4.0 diturunkan dari Ubuntu Feisty Fawn, jadi semua paket aplikasi Ubuntu Feisty kompatibel dan bisa diinstall di Linux Mint 4.0 ini. Kesan pertama pada booting awal, logo Linux Mint sudah berganti berbeda dari rilis sebelumnya. Masuk ke desktop, Mint masih memiliki pola dan corak warna yang sama yaitu paduan warna hijau dan biru. Distro ini telah dilengkapi dengan berbagai aplikasi yang siap pakai diantaranya: OpenOffice 2.2 (Write, Calc, Presentation, Database) GIMP Image Editor Mozilla Firefox dan Thunderbird Pidgin 2.0.0 dan XChat Java Runtime Environment 6.0 Amarok, Totem Media Player, dan MPlayer Mint Daryna ini ternyata juga telah dilengkapi dengan Beryl dan Compiz, ditambah dengan aplikasi Envy untuk memudahkan instalasi driver ATI dan NVIDIA walaupun aplikasi ini bukanlah aplikasi resmi dari vendor tersebut.

  • Microkernel Mechanisms for Improving the Trustworthiness of Commodity Hardware
    Microkernel Mechanisms for Improving the Trustworthiness of Commodity Hardware Yanyan Shen Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Computer Science and Engineering Faculty of Engineering March 2019 Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname/Family Name : Shen Given Name/s : Yanyan Abbreviation for degree as give in the University calendar : PhD Faculty : Faculty of Engineering School : School of Computer Science and Engineering Microkernel Mechanisms for Improving the Trustworthiness of Commodity Thesis Title : Hardware Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) The thesis presents microkernel-based software-implemented mechanisms for improving the trustworthiness of computer systems based on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware that can malfunction when the hardware is impacted by transient hardware faults. The hardware anomalies, if undetected, can cause data corruptions, system crashes, and security vulnerabilities, significantly undermining system dependability. Specifically, we adopt the single event upset (SEU) fault model and address transient CPU or memory faults. We take advantage of the functional correctness and isolation guarantee provided by the formally verified seL4 microkernel and hardware redundancy provided by multicore processors, design the redundant co-execution (RCoE) architecture that replicates a whole software system (including the microkernel) onto different CPU cores, and implement two variants, loosely-coupled redundant co-execution (LC-RCoE) and closely-coupled redundant co-execution (CC-RCoE), for the ARM and x86 architectures. RCoE treats each replica of the software system as a state machine and ensures that the replicas start from the same initial state, observe consistent inputs, perform equivalent state transitions, and thus produce consistent outputs during error-free executions.

  • Chapter 1: Linux Operating System
    CHAPTER 1: LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM A bit of history What is Linux? A short answer to this question is "a computer operating system based on Linux kernel and GNU tools and libraries". In order to understand what Linux is, first we need to know different concepts such as Linux, kernel, and GNU. Formally, Linux is not an operating system. It's just a software component working as a bridge between applications and the data processing done by the hardware. Because of this fact, the kernel is the core component of an operating system. First Linux kernel was written by Linus Torvalds in 1991. Usually, the term Linux is used to refer to a whole operating system based on the kernel. However, an operating system needs more components to be complete. At this point, there are a number of operating system based on Linux kernel, plus a set of tools provided by the GNU open source project. What are GNU tools? Well, first of all we should learn about the GNU project. Basically, this is an open source project started by Richard Stallman with the goal of building a set of software components and tools to avoid the use of any software that is not free. Now that we've learned about Linux, kernel, and GNU, we can define a distribution as a composition of Linux kernel and GNU tools and other useful software. We've just mentioned a new concept—distribution. Have you heard about Linux mascot: Tux the penguin Ubuntu, Fedora, or Debian? These three are examples of Linux distributions.

    Plugin Based Microbiome Analysis (PLUMA ) Version 2.0 - User Guide Trevor Cickovski and Giri Narasimhan Knight Foundation School of Computing and Information Sciences Florida International University USA tcickovs@fiu.edu, giri@fiu.edu http://biorg.cis.fiu.edu/pluma/ Other Contributors from Florida International University: Vanessa Aguiar-Pulido Guillermo Barquero Bhavyta Chauhan Mark Fajet Wenrui Huang Shamsed Mahmoud Veronica Parra Jingan Qu Joseph R. Quinn Juan Daniel Riveros Victoria Suarez-Ulloa Camilo Valdez August 31, 2021 Abstract We present PLUMA, a lightweight and flexible environment for constructing software pipelines. PLUMA is designed to be infinitely extensible, allowing users to select pipelines stages from a set of dynamically loaded plugins from the PLUMA plugin pool. Users around the world can contribute plugins in their lan- guage of choice to the plugin pool, that can then be used by others users to build pipelines through a uniform and opaqute interface that hides details of the underlying implementation. We begin by introducing the key features of PLUMA, and follow with a discussion of how to download and install the latest version, compile, and run the software. We also include information on setting up configuration files that specify desired plugins for a pipeline, and how to extend PLUMA with new plugins in various programming languages. We conclude with a full pipeline example and a brief discussion of our envisioned future of PLUMA. We distribute PLUMA under the MIT Software License, copyrighted by Florida International Univer- sity. Any professional work that uses PLUMA should provide the following citation: T. Cickovski and G.
