Product Description
Gentoo Linux is a computer operating system built on top of the Linux kernel and based on the Portage package management system. It is distributed as free and open source software. Unlike a conventional software distribution, the user compiles the source code locally according to their chosen configuration. There are normally no precompiled binaries for software, continuing the tradition of the ports collection, although for convenience, some software packages are also available as precompiled binaries for various architectures. The development project and its products are named after the Gentoo penguin. Gentoo package management is designed to be modular, portable, easy to maintain, flexible, and optimized for the user's machine. Gentoo describes itself as a metadistribution, "because of its near-unlimited adaptability". ... Read more

Product Description
Operating Systems is aimed at students at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, particularly those taking a module in a specialist computer systems or computer science course.It takes a new approach to operating systems, integrating three fundamental elements into one convenient and comprehensive text:* It presents the basic theory of operating system design and implementation in depth * It uses Linux as a running example throughout the text to expose students to the internals of operating systems * It gives a practical introduction to systems programming using the POSIX interfaceCurrently, such material has usually to be drawn from a variety of textbooks so Operating Systems provides a valuable resource for student and lecturer alike.The book aims to give the student a thorough knowledge of how operating systems work, and how they are implemented in practice.It develops a robust understanding of the concepts and building blocks which, although grounded in Linux, provide experience which will be transferable to other systems that the student will meet.Each chapter has a set of discussion questions and suggested reading to further stimulate thought.Whilst primarily written for the academic student, the material will also be of interest to users of Linux in the professional field who wish to increase their knowledge.John O'Gorman is a Lecturer in the Department of Computer Science and Information Systems at the University of Limerick. He has previously published a textbook on operating systems within the Palgrave Grassroots series.The Cornerstones of Computing series is dedicated to providing readers with rigorous and challenging texts that cover the breadth of computing science. The books published in this auspicious series are written by leading experts, reviewed by their peers, and offer a quality of text unsurpassed in today's market.Series Editors * Professor Richard Bird is Director of the Computing Laboratory and head of the Programming Research Group at Oxford University. He is also the author of several successful books, including the best-selling "Introduction to Functional Programming" ( Prentice Hall )* Professor Tony Hoare was formerly at Oxford and is now working at the Microsoft European Research HQ in Cambridge.He is the author of several textbooks, including "Communicating Sequential Processes" ( Prentice Hall ) ...

This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A510793. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: The Multilevel Secure Local Area Network (MLS LAN) Project at the Naval Postgraduate School's Center for Information Security (INFOSEC) Studies and Research (NPS CISR) is building a trusted network system that is both necessary and sufficient to provide a multilevel networking solution for real world use. The current configuration provides the necessary trusted network services on the TCSEC Class B-3 evaluated XTS-300, which is a combination of the STOP version 4.4.2 multilevel secure operating system, and a Wang-supplied Intel x86 hardware base. The interface for the STOP operating is based on the System V.3 UNIX implementation System V.3 lacks many of features available in more modern UNIX implementations such as System V.4 and BSD 4.3, and also lacks many of the features in POSIX and ANSI C standards, Finally, the CPU is several generations older than the more current Intel processors. This thesis discusses the port of several MLS trusted network services on the XTS-300 to a Linux operating system running on an Intel Pentium Processor, The new Linux TCBE server configuration will permit further experimentation with MLS architectural issues in a more modern, flexible and easily modifiable environment The port was accomplished by identifying and modifying the necessary software modules needed, to adapt to a Linux environment This thesis proves that XTS-300 TCB services can be ported to Linux system without any negative effects on performance thus allowing a move toward a more security enhanced implementation. ...

Product Description
Multimedia processing frameworks provide a comprehensive set of tools that greatly simplify the development of multimedia applications. "Traditional" frameworks provide pluggable black-box components that encapsulate different processing steps such as multiplexing or compression. The application is expected to use these building blocks to construct the full processing pipeline containing all individual transformations to be applied to the data. The work presented here proposes a very different approach to multimedia processing: Applications to formulate their media processing intent at a considerably higher level of abstraction, while the framework supplies the necessary infrastructure to dynamically translate these application requests into low-level multimedia processing operations. In contrast to the rather rigid processing pipeline of traditional designs, this translation is fully dynamic. The author introduces a set of extensions to the X window system and demonstrates the elegance of the media processing framework by turning X from a mere network-transparent graphics system into a full-fledged network-transparent multimedia system. ...

Product Description
This is a NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL MONTEREY CA DEPT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A926393. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: One feature of a multi-level operating system is a requirement to manage multiple, simultaneous user-sessions at different levels of security. This session management is performed through a trusted path between the user and operating system. Critical to this functionality is the operating system's ability to temporarily halt dormant sessions, thereby ensuring their inability to perform any actions within the system. Only when a session must be reactivated are its processes returned to a runnable state. This thesis presents an approach for adding this "secure halting" functionality to the Linux operating system. A detailed design for modifying the Linux kernel, the core of the operating system, is given. A new module, allowing an entire session to be halted and woken up, is designed. A new process state, the "secure halt" state, is added. Additionally, the kernel's scheduling manager is modified to properly manage processes in the secure halt state. The research has led to the implementation of the design as a proof of concept. This research is meant to be used in combination with other efforts to enhance the security of the Linux operating system. ... Read more

From the supplier: Linux is a UNIX-like operating system that was invented by Linus Torvalds in 1991. Unlike its better-known rival systems, Linux is free, requiring no licensing and no upgrade charges. This, perhaps, may explain its tremendous popularity among programmers, who can download the source code of Linux at zero cost. Designed to grow in a modular fashion, Linux has evolved through the years, with thousands of dedicated Linux enthusiasts supplying free open source codes that expand the system's capabilities. The popularity of Linux has attracted the attention of the world's leading software and hardware makers, many of whom have begun developing Linux applications for various cross-platform applications. Linux distributors such as Redhat, Caldera, Pacific HiTech and SuSE have also begun to aggressively market Linux applications to nonprofessionals.
