This is sometimes present in versions of the MIT License, as noted above. The original BSD license also includes a clause requiring all advertising [...]

In the late 1980s HP was building four series of computers, all based on CISC CPUs. One line was the IBM PC compatible Intel i286 based Vectra Series started 1986. All others were non-Intel systems. One of them was the HP Series 300 of Motorola 68000-based workstations, another Series 200 line of technical workstations based [...]

After growing up in suburban Detroit, Michigan, Joy received his B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Michigan and his M.S. in EECS from UC Berkeley in 1979. Joy’s PhD advisor was Bob Fabry. As a UC Berkeley graduate student, Joy worked for Fabry’s Computer Systems Research Group CSRG in managing the BSD support [...]

* Amiga 2065 the first Ethernet controller for Amiga computer family. Uses the Zorro-II bus interface and equipped with the NMOS Am7990 chip. * MicroVAX Q-Bus Ethernet controllers (like the DELQA). * DECstation 2100/3100 MIPS architecture motherboard Ethernet. * DEC 3000 AXP 64-bit Alpha AXP architecture motherboard. * Sun Microsystems Sun Hydra 3/80, SPARCstation 1, [...]

Because MTP/IP uses proprietary algorithms, compatible software must be installed on both ends of a communication path. Use of the UDP packet format permits compatibility with standard Internet Protocol (IP) network hardware and software. MTP/IP applications may use any available UDP port number. MTP and the applications which use it have been implemented for several [...]

OpenVPN allows peers to authenticate each other using a pre-shared secret key, certificates, or username/password. When used in a multiclient-server configuration, it allows the server to release an authentication certificate for every client, using signature and Certificate authority. It uses the OpenSSL encryption library extensively, as well as the SSLv3/TLSv1 protocol, and contains many security [...]

XORP, or eXtensible Open Router Platform, is an open source Internet Protocol routing software suite. It is designed from principles of software modularity and extensibility and aims at exhibiting stability and providing feature requirements for production use while also supporting networking research. The development project was founded by Mark Handley in 2000. Receiving funding from [...]

A personal computer that does not have embedded Bluetooth can be used with a Bluetooth adapter or “dongle” that will enable the PC to communicate with other Bluetooth devices (such as mobile phones, mice and keyboards). While some desktop computers and most recent laptops come with a built-in Bluetooth radio, others will require an external [...]

Snack Sound Toolkit is a cross-platform library written by Kåre Sjölander of the Swedish Royal Technical University (KTH) with bindings for the scripting languages Tcl, Python, and Ruby. It provides audio I/O, audio analysis and processing functions, such as spectral analysis, pitch tracking, and filtering, and related graphics functions such as display of the sound [...]

Unnecessary system software should not be installed or configured on a system. Software which is no longer required should be removed completely, if possible. *Identify what services are running **netstat -na **lsof **nmap **sockstat -4 (FreeBSD) The commands inetd and xinetd act as super-servers for a variety of network protocols such as rlogin, telnet and [...]

FLAIM (Framework for Log Anonymization and Information Management) is a modular tool designed to allow computer and network log sharing through application of complex data sanitization policies. FLAIM is aimed at 3 different user communities. First, FLAIM can be used by the security engineer who is investigating a broad incident spanning multiple organizations. Because of [...]

;FreeBSD:FreeBSD aims to make an operating system usable for any purpose. It is intended to run a wide variety of applications, be easy to use, contain cutting edge features, and be highly scalable on very high load network servers. FreeBSD is free and open source, and the project prefers the BSD license. However, they sometimes [...]

To ensure high-speed operation, WavPack uses a predictor that is implemented entirely in integer math. In its “fast” mode the prediction is simply the arithmetic extrapolation of the previous two samples. For example, if the previous two samples were -10 and 20, then the prediction would be 50. For the default mode a simple adaptive [...]
