  • Useful Applications – Last Updated 8 Th March 2014
    A List of Useful Applications – Last updated 8 th March 2014 In the descriptions of the software the text in black is my comments. Text in dark blue preceded by 'What they say :-' is a quote from the website providing the software. Rating :- This is my own biased and arbitrary opinion of the quality and usefulness of the software. The rating is out of 5. Unrated = - Poor = Average = Good = Very Good = Essential = Open Office http://www.openoffice.org/ Very Good = Word processor, Spreadsheet, Drawing Package, Presentation Package etc, etc. Free and open source complete office suite, equivalent to Microsoft Office. Since the takeover of this project by Oracle development seems to have ground to a halt with the departure of many of the developers. Libre Office http://www.libreoffice.org/ Essential = Word processor, Spreadsheet, Drawing Package, Presentation Package etc, etc. Free and open source complete office suite, equivalent to Microsoft Office. This package is essentially the same as Open Office however it satisfies the open source purists because it is under the control of an open source group rather than the Oracle Corporation. Since the takeover of the Open Office project by Oracle many of the developers left and a lot of them ended up on the Libre Office project. Development on the Libre Office project is now ahead of Open Office and so Libre Office would be my preferred office suite. AbiWord http://www.abisource.com/ Good = If you don't really need a full office suite but just want a simple word processor then AbiWord might be just what you are looking for.

  • Mindmapping for Beg and Strug Learners.Pdf
    MindMapping Frank Sapp Technology and Training Specialist [email protected] MindMapping MindMapping • Introduction • Defined • Brief History • Subtopic 3 • Types Defined • A mind map is a diagram used to visually organise information. A mind map is often created around a single concept, drawn as an image in the center of a blank landscape page, to which associated representations of ideas such as images, words and parts of words are added. Major ideas are connected directly to the central concept, and other ideas branch out from those. Brief History • Early • Tony Buzan • Data Visualization • Research Early • Radial Maps • Spider Diagrams Radial Maps • Spider Diagrams • Tony Buzan • Video Data Visualization • Edward Tufte • Napoleon Russian Invasion • PowerPoint Edward Tufte • Napoleon Russian Invasion • Napoleon Russian Invasion • The graph displays several variables in a single two-dimensional image: • the size of the army - providing a strong visual representation of human suffering, e.g. the sudden decrease of the army's size at the battle crossing the Berezina river on the retreat; • the geographical co-ordinates, latitude and longitude, of the army as it moved; • the direction that the army was traveling, both in advance and in retreat, showing where units split off and rejoined; • the location of the army with respect to certain dates; and • the weather temperature along the path of the retreat, in another strong visualisation of events (during the retreat "one of the worst winters in recent memory set in"[1]). • Étienne-Jules Marey first called notice to this dramatic depiction of the fate of Napoleon's army in the Russian campaign, saying it "defies the pen of the historian in its brutal eloquence"[citation needed].

    Main Page 1 Main Page FLOSSMETRICS/ OpenTTT guides FLOSS (Free/Libre open source software) is one of the most important trends in IT since the advent of the PC and commodity software, but despite the potential impact on European firms, its adoption is still hampered by limited knowledge, especially among SMEs that could potentially benefit the most from it. This guide (developed in the context of the FLOSSMETRICS and OpenTTT projects) present a set of guidelines and suggestions for the adoption of open source software within SMEs, using a ladder model that will guide companies from the initial selection and adoption of FLOSS within the IT infrastructure up to the creation of suitable business models based on open source software. The guide is split into an introduction to FLOSS and a catalog of open source applications, selected to fulfill the requests that were gathered in the interviews and audit in the OpenTTT project. The application areas are infrastructural software (ranging from network and system management to security), ERP and CRM applications, groupware, document management, content management systems (CMS), VoIP, graphics/CAD/GIS systems, desktop applications, engineering and manufacturing, vertical business applications and eLearning. This is the third edition of the guide; the guide is distributed under a CC-attribution-sharealike 3.0 license. The author is Carlo Daffara ([email protected]).

  • Outliner History About This Particular Outliner by Ted Goranson, [email protected]
    ATPO: Outliner History About This Particular Outliner by Ted Goranson, [email protected] Outliner History For a while there, I felt deprived. Yes, Mac OS X is the future, but we sure went through a hard patch until the core applications were brought over the fence. Lost in the shuffle were some dearly loved power tools: Nisus Writer, OneClick, and IdeaKeeper. But there’s fresh light in the homeland as a new generation of power tools is appearing. Many of us are taking advantage of this shift to improve our way of working. Almost certainly in this shift, outlining is bound to play a role in whatever world you build for yourself in your Mac. This new column will track what’s happening in outlining and provide some useful perspectives beyond the average “review.” This month, we give an overview of outlining. In future columns, we’ll drill down into different features, use patterns, philosophies, and specific tools. Macs and Outlining The Mac community has always had more innovative software than their Windows counterparts. Perhaps it is the nature of the community. Possibly it is because every Mac user is a niche customer already, and therefore more interested in niche software. This interest in innovation has often involved the outlining paradigm, sometimes as standalone applications but often embedded in other applications. I am as lazy as the next guy, and generally don’t revert to basic philosophy in evaluating applications. The trigger for my most recent self-examination was the appearance of Circus Ponies NoteBook and its sibling AquaMinds NoteTaker.

  • OSINT Handbook September 2020
    OPEN SOURCE INTELLIGENCE TOOLS AND RESOURCES HANDBOOK 2020 OPEN SOURCE INTELLIGENCE TOOLS AND RESOURCES HANDBOOK 2020 Aleksandra Bielska Noa Rebecca Kurz, Yves Baumgartner, Vytenis Benetis 2 Foreword I am delighted to share with you the 2020 edition of the OSINT Tools and Resources Handbook. Once again, the Handbook has been revised and updated to reflect the evolution of this discipline, and the many strategic, operational and technical challenges OSINT practitioners have to grapple with. Given the speed of change on the web, some might question the wisdom of pulling together such a resource. What’s wrong with the Top 10 tools, or the Top 100? There are only so many resources one can bookmark after all. Such arguments are not without merit. My fear, however, is that they are also shortsighted. I offer four reasons why. To begin, a shortlist betrays the widening spectrum of OSINT practice. Whereas OSINT was once the preserve of analysts working in national security, it now embraces a growing class of professionals in fields as diverse as journalism, cybersecurity, investment research, crisis management and human rights. A limited toolkit can never satisfy all of these constituencies. Second, a good OSINT practitioner is someone who is comfortable working with different tools, sources and collection strategies. The temptation toward narrow specialisation in OSINT is one that has to be resisted. Why? Because no research task is ever as tidy as the customer’s requirements are likely to suggest. Third, is the inevitable realisation that good tool awareness is equivalent to good source awareness. Indeed, the right tool can determine whether you harvest the right information.

  • Growing a Language Environment with Editor Libraries
    Growing a Language Environment with Editor Libraries Sebastian Erdweg∗ Lennart C. L. Katsy Tillmann Rendel∗ Christian Kastner¨ ∗ Klaus Ostermann∗ Eelco Vissery ∗ University of Marburg y Delft University of Technology Abstract Large software projects consist of code written in a multitude of different (possibly domain-specific) languages, which are often deeply interspersed even in single files. While many proposals ex- ist on how to integrate languages semantically and syntactically, the question of how to support this scenario in integrated devel- opment environments (IDEs) remains open: How can standard IDE services, such as syntax highlighting, outlining, or reference resolv- ing, be provided in an extensible and compositional way, such that an open mix of languages is supported in a single file? Based on our library-based syntactic extension language for Java, SugarJ, we propose to make IDEs extensible by organizing editor services in editor libraries. Editor libraries are libraries writ- ten in the object language, SugarJ, and hence activated and com- posed through regular import statements on a file-by-file basis. We have implemented an IDE for editor libraries on top of SugarJ and the Eclipse-based Spoofax language workbench. We have val- idated editor libraries by evolving this IDE into a fully-fledged and schema-aware XML editor as well as an extensible LATEX editor, Figure 1. regex.Sugar provides a syntactic extension for regular which we used for writing this paper. expressions; regex.Editor provides the according IDE extension. Categories and Subject Descriptors D.2.6 [Programming Envi- ronments]; D.2.13 [Reusable Software]; D.3.2 [Language Clas- sifications]: Extensible languages IDEs assist programmers, who spend a significant amount of time reading, navigating, adapting and writing source code.
