    Ubuntu Kung Fu

    Prepared exclusively for Alison Tyler Download at Boykma.Com What readers are saying about Ubuntu Kung Fu Ubuntu Kung Fu is excellent. The tips are fun and the hope of discov- ering hidden gems makes it a worthwhile task. John Southern Former editor of Linux Magazine I enjoyed Ubuntu Kung Fu and learned some new things. I would rec- ommend this book—nice tips and a lot of fun to be had. Carthik Sharma Creator of the Ubuntu Blog (http://ubuntu.wordpress.com) Wow! There are some great tips here! I have used Ubuntu since April 2005, starting with version 5.04. I found much in this book to inspire me and to teach me, and it answered lingering questions I didn’t know I had. The book is a good resource that I will gladly recommend to both newcomers and veteran users.

    Performance Testing Suricata The Effect of Configuration Variables On Offline Suricata Performance A Project Completed for CS 6266 Under Jonathon T. Giffin, Assistant Professor, Georgia Institute of Technology by Winston H Messer Project Advisor: Matt Jonkman, President, Open Information Security Foundation December 2011 Messer ii Abstract The Suricata IDS/IPS engine, a viable alternative to Snort, has a multitude of potential configurations. A simplified automated testing system was devised for the purpose of performance testing Suricata in an offline environment. Of the available configuration variables, seventeen were analyzed independently by testing in fifty-six configurations. Of these, three variables were found to have a statistically significant effect on performance: Detect Engine Profile, Multi Pattern Algorithm, and CPU affinity. Acknowledgements In writing the final report on this endeavor, I would like to start by thanking four people who made this project possible: Matt Jonkman, President, Open Information Security Foundation: For allowing me the opportunity to carry out this project under his supervision. Victor Julien, Lead Programmer, Open Information Security Foundation and Anne-Fleur Koolstra, Documentation Specialist, Open Information Security Foundation: For their willingness to share their wisdom and experience of Suricata via email for the past four months. John M. Weathersby, Jr., Executive Director, Open Source Software Institute: For allowing me the use of Institute equipment for the creation of a suitable testing

  • Portability of Prolog Programs: Theory and Case-Studies

    Portability of Prolog Programs: Theory and Case-Studies

    Portability of Prolog programs: theory and case-studies Jan Wielemaker1 and V´ıtorSantos Costa2 1 VU University Amsterdam, The Netherlands, [email protected] 2 DCC-FCUP & CRACS-INESC Porto LA Universidade do Porto, Portugal [email protected] Abstract. (Non-)portability of Prolog programs is widely considered as an important factor in the lack of acceptance of the language. Since 1995, the core of the language is covered by the ISO standard 13211-1. Since 2007, YAP and SWI-Prolog have established a basic compatibility framework. This article describes and evaluates this framework. The aim of the framework is running the same code on both systems rather than migrating an application. We show that today, the portability within the family of Edinburgh/Quintus derived Prolog implementations is good enough to allow for maintaining portable real-world applications. 1 Introduction Prolog is an old language with a long history, and its user community has seen a large number of implementations that evolved largely independently. This sit- uation is totally different from more recent languages, e.g, Java, Python or Perl. These language either have a single implementation (Python, Perl) or are con- trolled centrally (a language can only be called Java if it satisfies certain stan- dards [9]). The Prolog world knows dialects that are radically different, even with different syntax and different semantics (e.g., Visual Prolog [11]). Arguably, this is a handicap for the language because every publically available significant piece of code must be carefully examined for portability issues before it can be applied. As an anecdotal example, answers to questions on comp.lang.prolog typically include \on Prolog XYZ, this can be done using .

  • A Quick Guide to Gnuplot

    A Quick Guide to Gnuplot

    A Quick Guide to Gnuplot Andrea Mignone Physics Department, University of Torino AA 2020-2021 What is Gnuplot ? • Gnuplot is a free, command-driven, interactive, function and data plotting program, providing a relatively simple environment to make simple 2D plots (e.g. f(x) or f(x,y)); • It is available for all platforms, including Linux, Mac and Windows (http://www.gnuplot.info) • To start gnuplot from the terminal, simply type > gnuplot • To produce a simple plot, e.g. f(x) = sin(x) and f(x) = cos(x)^2 gnuplot> plot sin(x) gnuplot> replot (cos(x))**2 # Add another plot • By default, gnuplot assumes that the independent, or "dummy", variable for the plot command is "x” (or “t” in parametric mode). Mathematical Functions • In general, any mathematical expression accepted by C, FORTRAN, Pascal, or BASIC may be plotted. The precedence of operators is determined by the specifications of the C programming language. • Gnuplot supports the same operators of the C programming language, except that most operators accept integer, real, and complex arguments. • Exponentiation is done through the ** operator (as in FORTRAN) Using set/unset • The set/unset commands can be used to controls many features, including axis range and type, title, fonts, etc… • Here are some examples: Command Description set xrange[0:2*pi] Limit the x-axis range from 0 to 2*pi, set ylabel “f(x)” Sets the label on the y-axis (same as “set xlabel”) set title “My Plot” Sets the plot title set log y Set logarithmic scale on the y-axis (same as “set log x”) unset log y Disable log scale on the y-axis set key bottom left Position the legend in the bottom left part of the plot set xlabel font ",18" Change font size for the x-axis label (same as “set ylabel”) set tic font ",18" Change the major (labelled) tics font size on all axes.
