LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Using either GNOME or KDE, you can decide what interface you want and then add only the
features that fit your needs quickly and easily. If you are concerned with standardization, do not
worry. Linux sticks to the Unix standards. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers put
together the American National Standards Institute for Unix named the Portable Operating System
Interface for Computer Environments. It dictates a universal standard on how the Unix–based
systems are supposed to operate. (Asprey & Seruzzi, 2008) Linux has three major components–
the file structure, kernel, and environment. The file structure does what its name implies, puts files
in a specific order on any storage device. They are arranged in a hierarchy of directories and one or
more subdirectories all of which contain files. These directories are all interconnected. With the
exception of the standard directories that are set aside for system use, users have full control of the
files inside the directories. They can create and move directories, move files between directories,
share or restrict directories and files just by setting directory and file permissions. (Asprey &

Riordan Manufacturing Corporation, (Apollo Group, 2004), is a hybrid computing environment
employing MS Windows, (Microsoft Corporation, 2011), e–mail and file servers along–side UNIX
Enterprise Resource Program (ERP) and a HP–UX, (Hewlett Packard Development Company,
2011), UNIX Manufacturing Resource Program (MRP). Effective administrative support of both
operating systems requires two information technology groups, one specializing in MS Windows
platforms and one specializing in UNIX platforms. Requiring two IT groups and two unique server
platforms doubles the administrative management and equipment costs in the enterprise.
Standardizing server hardware and software to one type will significantly reduce costs and increase
Riordan Manufacturing's return on its investment. One server operating system platform can support
all of the workstation's applications with the exception of MS Windows Exchange, (Microsoft

The bonuses to this choice would be lower costs compared to Delphi and Sentra, Gregg's could
maintain current business processes and there is limited training required. But the Texas Firm UNIX
platform does not move Gregg's to an industry standard and it requires significant development staff
time. The other UNIX choice was from Ex–ADI costing $4–$5 million. The process for this change
would be to hire programmers and re–write into a UNIX platform internally. The biggest benefit to
this selection was that it allows for phase–in implementation, which means no business will be
stopped. It is also much cheaper than Delphi and Sentra options. The software will also be high
adaptable and customizable and limited training will be required. But this will not move the
company to an "industry standard" and nothing will seem new. There are several big risks when
changing important software in a large company. It could lead to a sudden halt of the business
during the deployment because of a failed database, a bad internet connection or the inability of staff
to input or process orders. The system might not be able to handle the work load. Lastly, there could
be an unexpected complete system shutdown. There are also other costs to consider. Along with the

The fixed cost of designing chips, building state–of–the –art semiconductor fabrication plants along
with the specter of diminishing unit volumes of RISC chips increased the prices of RISC chips
rapidly and thus became unattractive. This situation exacerbated RISC–UNIX computers
manufacturers to withstand the competition in the market. In addition to the cost of building,
software applications development had become more costly because of the RISC/UNIX volume
base and the need to port software to each UNIX version. Considering the above factors, HP joined
with Intel in development of IA–64 architecture. Merced is the code name for the IA–64 architecture
and was designed to perform an Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing or EPIC. It was designed
to bridge between RISC and CISC.HP believed that customers who watched Intel technologies
become pervasive in commercial desktops, file and print servers and technical workstations would
expect the same to happen in the server market. It also believed that IA–64 would be perceived as
the first Intel technology to support enterprise applications. 3) Who will benefit the most from the

Starting in 1980, Microsoft formed an important partnership with IBM that allowed them to bundle
Microsoft's operating system with computers that they sold, paying Microsoft a royalty for every
sale. In 1985, IBM requested that Microsoft write a new operating system for their computers called
OS/2; Microsoft wrote the operating system, but also continued to sell their own alternative, which
proved to be in direct competition with OS/2. Microsoft Windows eventually overshadowed OS/2 in
terms of sales. When Microsoft launched several versions of Microsoft Windows in the 1990s, they
had captured over 90% market share of the world's personal computers.

Desktop Operating Systems SD1430 Intro to Mobile OS Desktop Operating Systems When
considering the history of operating systems, you must first understand what an operating system is.
An operating system is the software that manages a computer's hardware, resources and provides
common services. The operating system is an essential component of the system software in a
computer. The operating system tells the computer what to do by controlling system resources, such
as, the processor, memory and disk space. The operating system allows the user to work and interact
on a computer without having to know about how the hardware works. One of the most essential
tasks of the operating system is to control the computers resources. Operating systems can allocate
resources as necessary to ensure that applications each receive the appropriate amount. In addition
to resource allocation, operating systems provide an application interface. This allows applications
to use the hardware in the same way. An application interface also allows software written on one
computer to be run on other types of computers. Operating systems have come a long way over the
years, and, just as there are different types of hardware and software, there are different types of
operating systems as well. Some of these types include Real–Time, Multi–User, Multitasking and

It was in 1991that Linus Torvald began creating an operating system kernel, called Linux. He was a
21 year old computer science student at the University of Helsinki Finland who had a dream of
converting the teaching version of UNIX called MINIX into a useful operating system. Linux
version 0.01 was released on September as an alternative to UNIX and Windows. Linux is a
participant in the Open Source Software movement and the source code can be downloaded, altered
and redistributed.
"Linux is the perfect operating system for hackers because they can freely download newer versions
of the Linux kernel or other Linux utilities of the Internet and instantly change its source code to fix
any software bugs found." (The Penguin's Guide to Linux, 2000)
As more people joined the Linux movement, more software programs were added to its databank.
Soon there were drivers, office programs, games and user–friendly GUI's. While Linux does not
command a huge market share, they fill a niche with users of netbooks and those who like to

progressions topped somewhere around 1977 and 1979, when versatility of the Unix framework was
being exhibited. Amidst this second period, the first generally accessible portrayal of the dialect
appeared: the C Programming Language, often called the `white book ' or `k&r ' [kernighan 78]. At
last, in the center 1980s, the dialect was formally institutionalized by the ANSI X3j11 board of
trustees, which rolled out further improvements. Until the early 1980s, in spite of the fact that
compilers existed for an assortment of machine architectures and working frameworks, the dialect
was just about only connected with Unix; all the more as of late, its utilization has spread a great

your responsibility is to keep things moving on the job. Other challenges that a supervisor face are
ensuring that your employees understand your expectations, establishing a positive relationship,
delegating work, keeping your employees motivated, determining ways to reward employees with
company guidelines and by me having a solid relationship with my manager. An employee will
respect you if you set your expectations from the very beginning. The first thing I did as a supervisor

The full Unix operating system had been ported only to the top end of the early personal computer
market, since Unix required CPU, memory, and disk resources which were well in excess of what
was available on the majority of these early machines. However, the growing popularity of the IBM
PC clone as a personal computing platform, and the need to have a system which students could
work on encouraged Andrew Tanenbaum to write a small version of Unix in 1986 called Minix, for
the PC platform. Although it originally supported multi–processing with a single user and only
floppy disk drives for storage, it evolved over the years to Minix 2.0, with many additional features
not found in the early versions. The full source code is available. Unlike most Unix operating
systems, Minix uses a micro–kernel–based design.
Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for Unix were available in the early 1980's but all were proprietary
and communication at the graphical level between two different Unix platforms was generally not
possible. This situation was remedied when the Athena Project at MIT provided a standard platform
independent graphical interface for Unix and other operating systems that can be used over a
network. It is usually referred to as the X Window System, X11, or simply X. The X Window

management (Windows Vista SP1, Server 2008 and later) have implemented memory management
procedures that differ greatly from previously versions of Windows memory management due to
previous vulnerabilities with the address space location of elements such as kernel32.dll, ntdll.dll.
Knowing the memory address of such critical files allowed malicious access at the kernel level and
allowed unscrupulous program writes to take advantage of the known locations. Microsoft has
implemented new memory access technology that includes Dynamic Allocation of Kernel Virtual
Address Space (including paged and non–paged pools), kernel–mode stack jumping, and Address
Space Layout Randomization. These changes reduce the ability of malicious program developers to
take advantage of known address locations. Windows address space can be larger or smaller than the
actual memory installed on the machine. Windows handles memory management with two
responsibilities. The primary is to map or translate the processors virtual address space to the
physical memory. The second responsibility is to manage the swap file between the hard drive and
Random Access Memory (RAM). Windows memory management also includes memory mapped
files. Allowing files to be placed into RAM, sequential file

In LINUX systems, files are routinely modified and manipulated by administrators and users. The
core commands used for manipulating and interacting with the operating system generally involve
manipulating files, directories and programs within. Manipulating files in LINUX is done via the
command line and LINUX "has many powerful utilities that are used to describe and modify the
contents of files. These commands may seem trivial when used alone, but by connecting these
commands together you are able to create powerful text processing features." (1994). LINUX and
UNIX systems have a deep history using powerful tools for file manipulation and reporting. The
grep tool allows users to search within the contents of a file or files and return the string of interest.
It is very powerful to be able to run a quick loop and search within each text file for a particular
phrase. The tail command allows the user to view the last lines in a particular file. In this example, it
is used to return the last lines in a web server log.
You can see that someone clearly thinks there is a Microsoft IIS web server and is attempting to find
compromises. After examining, the information a system administrator would quickly block that

MULTICS (MULTiplexed Information and Computing Service). It was envisaged as a computer

Most of these systems were (and still are) neither source nor binary compatible with one another,
and most are hardware specific.
With the emergence of RISC technology and the breakup of AT&T, the UNIX systems category
began to grow significantly during the 1980s. The term "open systems" was coined. Customers
began demanding better portability and interoperability between the many incompatible UNIX
variants. Over the years, a variety of coalitions (e.g. UNIX International) were formed to try to gain
control over and consolidate the UNIX systems category, but their success was always limited.
Gradually, the industry turned to standards as a way of achieving the portability and interoperability
benefits that customers wanted. However, UNIX standards and standards organisations proliferated
(just as vendor coalitions had), resulting in more confusion and aggravation for UNIX customers.
The UNIX systems category is primarily an application–driven systems category, not an operating
systems category. Customers choose an application first–for example, a high–end CAD package–
then find out which different systems it runs on, and select one. The final selection involves a
variety of criteria, such as price/performance, service, and support. Customers generally don't

Of the utmost security concern is the protection of the root account. The root account allows a user
absolute control of the system, including the ability to alter practically every aspect of the systems,
from individual files to installed programs. Indeed, an entry in Wikipedia.com notes, that a UNIX
administrator should be much like Clark Kent, only using the root account, or becoming Superman,
when absolutely necessary, lest the security of the account be compromised (2006). Ultimately, this
implementation represents a near surefire way to protect the system against many internal and
external threats. By ensuring regularly scheduled root account password changes and ensuring the
passwords are strong, the cons noted previously should be relatively easy to avoid. File system
security is also very important regardless of the UNIX implementation. UNIX files system security
generally allows access permissions to be granted to various defined users and groups. UNIX also
contains an access right flag know as the "sticky bit". The sticky bit can be used to allow users and
groups write access to certain directories within the system. Similarly, the sticky bit can be used by a
user to disallow other users with access to the same directory to alter the contents of the file. The file
can only be altered by the file owner, the directory owner, and the root account (linuxdevcenter.com,

This presents the need for memory management, as the memory of the computer would need to be
searched for a free area in which to load a users program. When the user was finished running the
program, the memory consumed by it would need to be freed up and made available for another user
when required (CIT). Process scheduling and management is also necessary, so that all programs
can be executed and run without conflict. Some programs might need to be executed more
frequently than others, for example, printing. Conversely, some programs may need to be
temporarily halted, then restarted again, so this introduces the need for inter–program
communication. In modern operating systems, we speak more of a process (a portion of a program
in some stage of execution (CIT, 3)) than a program. This is because only a portion of the program is
loaded at any one time. The rest of the program sits waiting on the disk until it is needed, thereby
saving memory space. UNIX users speak of the operating system as having three main parts: the
kernel, the shell and the file system. While DOS users tend not to use the term kernel and only
sometimes use the term shell, the terms remain relevant. The kernel, also known as the "Real Time
Executive", is the low–level core of the OS and is loaded into memory right after the loading of the

like minicomputer on an engineer's desk. Its architecture, which employs a floating–point
coprocessor and ultrafast, 32–bit–wide DMA channels, executes 1.2 million instructions a second.

single line of code. Inexperienced users can be taught to write simple programs in a matter of
minutes. Beginners often produce simple programs without effort within their first day using it.
The elements of the Unix environment have been called software tools. A software tool is very much

Among the Aqua user interface, Apple also built in Pre–emptive multitasking and memory
protection to improve the ability of the operating system to run multiple applications simultaneously
without interrupting or corrupting each other. The system can also determine how much RAM

needs to be devoted to the running applications. For example if a picture is being rendered in
Photoshop in the background and a user is surfing the web in the foreground, the system will
automatically put more of the processors power to the Photoshop application to get the requested job
done.
Apple also wants as many developers as it can get for the Operating System; therefore they have

Python is an interpreted language, which can save you considerable time during program
development because no compilation and linking is necessary. The interpreter can be used
interactively, which makes it easy to experiment with features of the language, to write throw–away
programs, or to test functions during bottom–up program development. It is also a handy desk
calculator. Python enables programs to be written compactly and readably. Programs written in
Python are typically much shorter than equivalent C, C++, or Java programs, for several reasons: the
high–level data types allow you to express complex operations in a single statement; statement
grouping is done by indentation instead of beginning and ending brackets; no variable or argument
declarations are necessary. Python is extensible: if you know how to program in C it is easy to add a
new built–in function or module to the interpreter, either to perform critical operations at maximum
speed, or to link Python programs to libraries that may only be available in binary form (such as a
vendor–specific graphics library). Once you are really hooked, you can link the Python interpreter

They are many different versions of Unix, as well as some Unix 'lookalikes'. The most widely used
are: System V (distributed by the original developers, AT&T) AIX (IBM) Berkeley BSD (from the
University of California, Berkeley) SunOS, now known as Solaris (from the makers of Sun
workstations) Xenix (a PC version of Unix).
The Unix operating system consists basically of the kernel and the shell. The kernel is the part
carries out basic operating system functions such as accessing files, allocating memory and handling
communications.
A shell provides the user interface to the kernel. A number of shells are available on the Unix
operating system including the Bourne shell and the C shell. The shell is basically an extensive
program that runs all the time that you are logged on to the computer, and provides an interactive
interface between the user and the computer functions. The C shell is the default shell for interactive
work on many Unix systems.
Most users don't see much difference among the variants of Unix (ULTRIX, AIX, etc.), because the
shell program handles interactions between the user and the operating system. When you type a
command "at Unix," you are actually typing it at the shell. The shells are the same no matter what
type of Unix you use; for example, Korn shell will look the same whether the computer you use is

invention 'Freax'.at the beginning , he used to store files under the name 'Freax' for about 12
months.in 1991,travolds became curious about operating systems so he thought of creating his own
while attending to his university and he was frustrated by the licensing of Minix ,which at the time
limited it to educational use only ,so he began to work on his own operating system kernel ,which
became the Linux kernel operating system ,he then began to develop his operating system on Minix
and the applications used on minix were also used on the Linux later.

Kudler Fine Foods Security Report and System Review
Introduction
Kudler Fine Foods is in the process of developing a customer loyalty program, and a related system
to give rewards to their customers. We have been given the task of assisting the development team
in creating mechanisms that facilitate information security
This paper serves to direct the development team along a pathway of security, with the intent to
share information about the most secured manner to implement this project. It must first be
acknowledged that for information to be secured, information security must be integrated into the
SDLC from system inception. The early integration of security in the ... Show more content on

The current hardware within the organization will support the Linux platform and architecture. This
makes a Linux implementation more cost efficient, because the Linux operating system is open
source, allowing licensing for the operating system to be almost free, and maintenance quite
minimal in cost, when compared to its Widows competitor. The implementation of Linux within the
organization can also accommodate the use of several of their Windows based applications.
WINEHQ – A unique Linux interface that gives Windows applications, permission.
The Wine application is a Windows emulator that will also allow the organization to install and run
most Windows designed applications. This will allow the organization to slowly transition any
Windows based programs into the Linux environment.
Portability of the customer rewards program is also critical to the evolution of Kudler Fine Foods.
The group recommends that Kudler use a web–based Point of Sale system that will use the web
browser to access and update data. This will also give the organization some disaster recovery and
contingency options in the future. The use of many portable devices including tablets, laptops, and
smartphone's will give the organization portability and contingency with little to no application
configuration.

Windows XP vs. Mac OS X Architecture

When looking at the interface of the Mac OS X Operating System and the Microsoft Windows XP
operating system many similarities can be seen. The most obvious is the use of blue in the interface.
In the core of the systems they both have a micro kernel which addresses thread management, space
management and other communications at the system level and is more resistant to attacks from a
virus.
Mac OS X is a powerful development platform; it supports multiple development technologies like
UNIX, Java, Cocoa and Carbon. It also is host to many open source, web, scripting, database and
development technologies. It was build around the integrated ... Show more content on

Windows XP is a modular system that contains two main layers, a user mode and a kernel mode.
The user mode refers to the mode in which the user programs are run such as Adobe Photoshop and
Internet Explorer. These programs are limited in terms of what system resources they have access to.
The user mode is made up of subsystems capable of passing I/O requests to the appropriate kernel
mode drivers by using the I/O manager. Two subsystems make up the user mode layer, the
environment subsystem and the integral subsystem. The Environment subsystem is designed to run
applications written for many different types of operating systems. Unfortunately these applications
run at a lower priority than kernel mode processes. The Environment subsystem has three main
environment sub systems called Win32 sub system, OS/2 Subsystem, POSIX sub system. The
Win32 subsystem runs 32 bit windows applications and also supports virtual DOS machines. This
allows backward compatibility with MS DOS and Windows 3.x applications to run in Windows XP.
The OS/2 subsystem support 16bit character based OS/2 applications and emulates OS/2 1.3 and 1.x
however it will not emulate OS/2 2.x or later applications. The POSIX subsystem supports
applications that are only written to either the POSIX 1 standard or the related ISO/IEC standards.
The integral subsystem looks for operating system specific functions in the environment subsystem.
It is made up of a security

Open and Closed Source Systems

Open and Closed Source System
What Open Source Means
Open–Source means it is free. No one owns it, so there is no source code, no key code, and no
licensing to purchase. When Linus Torvalds created Linux, he determined that the more people or,
the more minds delving into the software can make the system more creative, more improved, and
the possibilities are endless. Thus, he gave Linux to the world as a free open–source operating
system ("Damicon; Linking The Left Brain And The Right Brain: Open Vs. Closed Source", 2003–
2009).
Open–Source is defined by the code or source code is accessible to person or persons who
essentially use it or in IT definition: end–user. The user can revise and ... Show more content on

Software that safeguards these privileges are kept is called free software.
The license was originally written by Richard Stallman of the Free Software Foundation or (FSF)
for the GNU project. According to Gnu General Public License, Version 3 29 June 2007 (2007),
"The GNU General Public license is a free, copyleft license for software and other kinds of works"
(para. 1). Copyleft means a technique for creating a program whereby it is free; forcing any altered
and expanded versions of said program to be free also. A software company provides a software
license to a consumer who then provides their permission for the consumer to use their software
packet or package. Typically, it comes with many restrictions, and only allows the user one copy per
license. It cannot be copied or distributed in anyway. Such is the case for Microsoft.
Microsoft also has volume licensing in that a corporation can purchase as many licenses, or also
referred to as key codes, as they might need depending on the size of the business.
When Microsoft came up with volume licensing it allowed businesses to save costs by not having to
purchase the boxed software. The cost is only for the license number or key code. It can also give
tailored buying choices and better software administration.
