A “hack” has always been a kind of shortcut or modification a way to by pass or rework the standard operation of an object or system. In fact, the most elegant and enduring hack from this period is the UNIX operating system, developed in the late 1960s by “Dennis Ritchie” and “Keith Thompson” of Bell Laboratory. The 1970s produced another type of hacker , one focused on telephone systems known as “ phreakers ”, these hackers discovered and exploited operational characteristics of the newly all electronic telephone switching network that enabled them to make long distance calls free of charge. Modems, devices that enabled computers to communicate with each other over telephone lines, were also more widely available and significantly extended the hacker‟s reach. Sniffing is the use of a network interface to receive data not intended for the machine in which the interface resides. A variety of types of machines need to have this capability. A token-ring bridge, for example, typically has two network interfaces that normally receive all packets traveling on the media on one interface and retransmit some, but not all, of these packets on the other interface. Another example of a device that incorporates sniffing is one typically marketed as a “network analyzer”. In the united States, script kiddies are less serious crackers are thought to be between 12 and 30 years old. This new breed of “hacker” directed its knowledge towards distinctly criminal pursuits including the distribution of pirated, commercial software, games, computer viruses and worms that could virtually shut down systems. The number of popular books and films at this time, beginning with 1983‟s movie, War Games. Nowadays the hackers are growing all over the world be careful guys. Submitted By, A.KAMALAKANNAN II-B.Sc.

However, most existing solutions require a complicated setup, are often hard to use and might not always work outdoors. Marc Pollefeys, professor at the Institute for Visual Computing and his group found a way to develop a software that works with existing smartphone technology that allows the user to scan a 3D model almost as easy as taking a photograph. The technology was demonstrated publicly for the first time today at the International Conference on Computer Vision in Sydney,Australia. As all calculations are performed directly on the phone, the user gets immediate feedback and can select additional viewpoints to cover missing parts of the 3D model. "This is an important advantage compared to solutions that batch process all the images in the cloud at a later time", explains Marc Pollefeys. The app also makes it possible to visualise the state of the 3D scan from different viewing angles, allowing the user to cover all the areas of the object he is interested in. Having a solution on a mobile phone enables the acquisition of 3D scans on-the-fly anywhere. The approach works in a wide variety of settings, including low-light conditi-ons such as inside a museum. After the 3D capture is started, the system automatically determines the correct moments to extract camera images based on the user motion. "Only two years ago, such a software only run on massive computers. We were able to shrink processes down on smartphone level and make them highly efficient", says Marc Pollefeys. Contrary to image-only 3D capture solutions the app is able to determine the absolute size of the scanned 3D object, as well as the vertical direction. Because of the complexity of the calculations needed to reconstruct hundreds of thousands of points, the graphics co-processor (GPU) of the phone is used to enable a faster reconstruction and increase interactivity for the user. 2 The technology also allows the 3D capture of faces, giving a third dimension to portraits, profile pictures or images of loved ones. Having a convenient way of getting 3D models of everyday objects, users will now be able to copy real-world objects by scanning a full 360 degree model of an object. The resulting 3D model can be used for visualisation or augmented reality applications, or even be used for 3D printing, potentially at a remote location, effectively enabling the user to replicate an object.

Apple‟s iWork application suite will come for free with all new iOS 7-based devices. This would be welcome news for iPhone fans since this application is a useful one and costs $5 to $10 at the moment. The announcement is in fact somewhat a surprise from the company. Apple‟s iWork consists of Pages and Numbers, which is the iOS counterpart of Microsoft‟s MS Word and MS Excel. Apple‟s iWork also includes the iMovie, Keynote and iPhoto applications. These apps are amongst the most useful and popular applications on Apple as the cover almost all the basic office needs that users can have. “With one touch, boom, all five of these apps are downloaded for you, and some additional ones,” “We think that iWork is a really key advantage for a customer‟s productivity and that iPhoto and iMovie are great for their creativity,”he added. The apps have all been made free for all new iOS devices. This means that users, who are now buying iPads, iPhones and the fifth generation models of the iPod Touch, will all get free access to these apps. It should generate a lot of interest amongst the fans of the company to use these services more avidly.

The company did not provide specifications for the laptop, but in an email said more Chromebooks will be announced for "budget-strapped" small-and-medium business and consumers in the coming months. Dell did not provide a shipping date for the Chromebook 11. PC makers and Google are promoting Chromebooks , which are low-cost laptops for those who do most of their computing on the Web. Dell already offers Android tablets starting at $149, and laptops and tablets based on Windows. A new wave of Chromebooks hit the market in October from Acer, Hewlett-Packard and Samsung. Laptops with 11.6-inch screens include Acer's $199 Chromebook C720, Hewlett-Packard and Google's $279 Chromebook 11, and the $249 Samsung Chromebook. Hewlett-Packard also sells a $299 Chromebook 14 with a 14-inch screen. Acer's $299 Chromebook C720P, which started shipping a few days ago, has an 11.6-inch touchscreen. Chromebooks have processor options of either ARM or Intel's Celeron, which is based on a Haswell microarchitecture. Depending on the screen size and processor, Chromebooks can offer more than six hours of battery life. Many Chromebooks have minimal storage of just 16GB, but come with two years of 100GB of free cloud storage on Google Drive.

  • Web Browser a C-Class Article from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Web browser A C-class article from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A web browser or Internet browser is a software application for retrieving, presenting, and traversing information resources on the World Wide Web. An information resource is identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) and may be a web page, image, video, or other piece of content.[1] Hyperlinks present in resources enable users to easily navigate their browsers to related resources. Although browsers are primarily intended to access the World Wide Web, they can also be used to access information provided by Web servers in private networks or files in file systems. Some browsers can also be used to save information resources to file systems. Contents 1 History 2 Function 3 Features 3.1 User interface 3.2 Privacy and security 3.3 Standards support 4 See also 5 References 6 External links History Main article: History of the web browser The history of the Web browser dates back in to the late 1980s, when a variety of technologies laid the foundation for the first Web browser, WorldWideWeb, by Tim Berners-Lee in 1991. That browser brought together a variety of existing and new software and hardware technologies. Ted Nelson and Douglas Engelbart developed the concept of hypertext long before Berners-Lee and CERN. It became the core of the World Wide Web. Berners-Lee does acknowledge Engelbart's contribution. The introduction of the NCSA Mosaic Web browser in 1993 – one of the first graphical Web browsers – led to an explosion in Web use. Marc Andreessen, the leader of the Mosaic team at NCSA, soon started his own company, named Netscape, and released the Mosaic-influenced Netscape Navigator in 1994, which quickly became the world's most popular browser, accounting for 90% of all Web use at its peak (see usage share of web browsers).
