Professional ethics codes establish guidelines for conduct within a profession. In computing, they symbolize professionalism, define standards for clients/employers, protect interests, and provide guidance. Codes note computing enables harm but also good, and professionals want recognition. The IEEE-ACM code has 8 principles like public interest, product quality, and integrity. It guides fair treatment of users, honesty, quality assurance, and advancing the reputation of the profession. However, codes can't cover all cases and require judgment, with compliance voluntary.

Ethical consideration in open source softwareaamatya
The document discusses ethical considerations around open source software usage from utilitarian and deontological perspectives. It outlines how open source software comes with license obligations that some companies fail to follow, potentially facing legal consequences. Both utilitarian and deontological analyses indicate the benefits of open source software if its terms are properly followed to respect intellectual property rights and fulfill duties and responsibilities.
Ethical consideration in open source softwareaamatya
Developers who create open source software hold the copyright to their work but grant users a license, typically the GPL, to use and modify the software. However, users have obligations under these licenses, such as making any modified versions of the software freely available. Some companies download and use open source software without attending to their license obligations, risking legal issues. Stakeholders in open source software include developers, companies that use or develop software, programmers, and general users. Utilitarian and deontological analyses both support following open source licenses to maximize benefits and fulfill duties around intellectual property. Developers should give credit to original creators and make any modifications publicly available, while companies should verify that license terms are followed.
This document discusses software liability, including what it is, who can be liable, and best practices. Software liability refers to the legal responsibility of developers, manufacturers, and users for any damages caused by software failures.

Choices in Systems Acquisition and Risks, Security
Systems Acquisition
Options to consider when acquiring a new system are, development in-house, outsourcing, licensing, software as a service (SaaS), and having users develop the system. There are trade-offs to consider for each option. In-house development has several advantages to consider such as a good fit to organizational need and culture, dedicated maintenance, since the developers are accessible within the company, seamless interface, when the system is custom-made for an organization special requirements can be implemented to ensure that it has proper interfaces with other systems, and specialized security, special security measures can be integrated into an application. Additionally, there is a potential for strategic advantage. Some of the disadvantages of in-house development are, high cost, a long wait for development personnel, who might be busy with other projects and the application may be excessively organization specific to integrate with other systems.
Outsourcing
Advantages of outsourcing are improved financial planning sense outsourcing enables a client to know the exact costs of IT functions over the period of a contract. Another advantage is reduced license and maintenance fee discounts. Outsourcing gives businesses an opportunity to increase their attention to the core business by letting experts manage IT. Outsourcing also provides shorter implementation time as IT vendors can in most cases complete a new application in less time than in-house development. A reduction in personnel as another advantage as IS salaries and benefits are expensive. Outsourcing increases access to highly qualified knowledge. Clients can tap into the IT vendor’s knowledge and experience gained by working with many clients in different environments.
Some of the risks of outsourcing IT services are a loss of control, a loss of experienced employees, outsourcing involves transferring organizations employees to the highest vendor, the risk of losing competitive advantage outsourcing the development of strategic systems is the same as disclosing trade secrets. Another disadvantage is high price despite careful pre-contractual calculations companies find that outsourcing cost them significantly more than if they had spent their resources on in-house development.
Licensing
Benefits of licensing software are immediate system availability, low price (the license fee), available support, and high quality. Immediate availability shortens the time from when a decision is made to acquire the new system and when the new system begins to be productive. The product is high qual ...
Distributed Co-ordinator Model for Optimal Utilization of Software and Piracy...CSCJournals
Today the software technologies have evolved it to the extent that now a customer can have free and open source software available in the market. But with this evolution the menace of software piracy has also evolved. Unlike other things a customer purchases, the software applications and fonts bought don't belong to the specified user. Instead, the customer becomes a licensed user — means the customer purchases the right to use the software on a single computer, and can't put copies on other machines or pass that software along to colleagues. Software piracy is the illegal distribution and/or reproduction of software applications for business or personal use. Whether software piracy is deliberate or not, it is still illegal and punishable by law. The major reasons of piracy include the high cost of software and the rigid licensing structure which is becoming even less popular due to inefficient software utilization. Various software companies are inclined towards the research of techniques to handle this problem of piracy. Many defense mechanisms have been devised till date but the hobbyists or the black market leaders (so called “software pirates”) have always found a way out of it. This paper identifies the types of piracies and licensing mechanisms along with the flaws in the existing defense mechanisms and examines social and technical challenges associated with handling software piracy prevention. The goal of this paper is to design, implement and empirically evaluate a comprehensive framework for software piracy prevention and optimal utilization of the software.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

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
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

site and then he want to activate it . It not activate because the
license is used by the previous user from which he purchase .
and software id not registered because license is not
transferable.
9. Risks of software:
Risk:
Risk is future uncertain events with a probability()امکان of
occurrence and a potential for loss.
Product risk is the possibility that the system or software might
fail to satisfy or fulfill some reasonable expectation of the
customer, user, or stakeholder. (Some authors also called the
‘Product risks’ as ‘Quality risks’ as they are risks to the quality of
the product.)
10. Some software product risks :
• If the software skips some key function that the customers
specified, the users required or the stakeholders were
promised.
• If the software is unreliable and frequently fails to work.
• If software fail in ways that cause financial or other damage to a
user or the company that user works for.
• If the software has problems related to a particular quality
characteristic, which might not be functionality, but rather
security, reliability, usability, maintainability or performance.
