Linux, despite its technical superiority and flexibility, remains a niche OS in the consumer markets. Because of fragmentation stemming from diverse distributions, it lacks the standardized experience which discourages mainstream adoption. This foundational paper explores whether a balanced approach to standardization…

If someone says to use or to have a Linux this is correct as like it is imprecise. It does not exist a Linux as full functional operating system by itself. What was originally meant by the term Linux was the operating system core[1]. The so called kernel, or in a case of a Linux operating system the Linux kernel. It is…

Background Recent advances in high-throughput technologies dramatically increase biological data generation. However, many research groups lack computing facilities and specialists. This is an obstacle that remains to be addressed. Here, we present a Linux distribution, LXtoo, to provide a flexible computing platform…

'Gilles Muller' 'Julia L. Lawall'] In August 2011, Linux entered its third decade. Ten years before, Chou et al. published a study of faults found by applying a static analyzer to Linux versions 1.0 through 2.4.1. A major result of their work was that the drivers directory contained up to 7 times more of certain kinds…

Embedded systems are playing an increasingly important role in control engineering. Despite their popularity, embedded systems are generally subject to resource constraints and it is therefore difficult to build complex control systems on embedded platforms. Traditionally, the design and implementation of control…

Operating systems are vital system software that, without them, humans would not be able to manage and use computer systems. In essence, an operating system is a collection of software programs whose role is to manage computer resources and provide an interface for client applications to interact with the different…

'Heleen Plaisier' 'Michael G Ritchie' 'Steven D Smart'] Background Teaching bioinformatics at universities is complicated by typical computer classroom settings. As well as running software locally and online, students should gain experience of systems administration. For a future career in biology or bioinformatics…

– Operating Systems exists since existence of computers, and have been evolving continuously from time to time. In this paper we have reviewed a relatively new or unexplored topic of Live OS. From networking perspective, Live OS is used for establishing Clusters, Firewalls and as Network security assessment tool etc.…

The Linux shell is arguably one of the most important computational tools across various scientific disciplines. Its high flexibility makes it the platform of choice for many file operations and smaller scripting tasks. Also, many stand-alone programs are called from the Linux shell - typically followed by multiple…

—The log-based analysis and trouble-shooting has remained prevalent and commonly used approach for centralized and time-haring systems. However, for parallel and distributed systems where happen-before relations are not directly available between the events, it become a challenge to fully depend on log-based analysis…

'Nurul Harzira Mohamad Nor' 'Yongsu Park'] As IoT devices are being widely used, malicious code is increasingly appearing in Linux environments. Sophisticated Linux malware employs various evasive techniques to deter analysis. The embedded trace microcell (ETM) supported by modern Arm CPUs is a suitable hardware tracer…

Computational chemistry is an increasingly active field due to the improvement of computing resources and theoretical tools. However, its use remains usually limited to technically-inclined users due to the technical challenges of preparing, launching and analyzing calculations. In this context, we have developed…

The rate of progress in human neurosciences is limited by the inability to easily apply a wide range of analysis methods to the plethora of different datasets acquired in labs around the world. In this work, we introduce a framework for creating, testing, versioning and archiving portable applications for analyzing…

Neuroscience needs behavior, and behavioral experiments require the coordination of large numbers of heterogeneous hardware components and data streams. Currently available tools strongly limit the complexity and reproducibility of experiments. Here we introduce Autopilot, a complete, open-source Python framework for…

To realise a research project idea, an experimenter faces a series of conflicting design and implementation considerations, regarding both its hardware and software components. For instance, the ease of implementation, in time and expertise, should be balanced against the ease of future reconfigurability and number of…
