1)Meaning of open source OS An open source (OS) operating system is a set of programs that schedule tasks, allocates storage and presents a default interface to the user between applications. But this OS is free, user have the right to use, modify and redis 2.2)Example: ????

3.1)Open source application software can defined as the general designation of computer programs for performing user tasks where is an approach to the design, development, and distribution of software, offering practical accessibility to a softwares source code. 3.2)Examples : ??? 4.0 The Latest Development in ICT 4.1 Hardware There are the latest development in ICT in hardware, Wireless Keyboard 3000. Wireless Keyboard 300 have 2.4 GHz wireless technology which confident connection out of the box and with up to a 45-foot range. Beside that, it also have quiet-touch keys which quiet, responsive, and thin-profile keys.It is available with soft-touch palm rest which has some benefits like we will get better comfortable which support when we type with the plush, integrated palm rest. Its spill-resistant design is integrated water channels drain the liquid away. It also has media center which can control media playback from our keyboard. Some hot key that it have are one-touch access to Windows Media Player, e-mail, Home, calculator, My Documents, zoom instant massaging and photos. Compare with Wired Desktop 600, this keyboard have media center with four hot keys to let we control the most-used media activities like play house, volume up, volume down, and mute. Beside that, it also have calculator hot keys which has a function to quickly access the calculator if we touch its button. Its spill-resistant design is use to enjoy a drink while we work. This keyboard is designed to withstand an accidentall spill. We can press to launch our Start menu and search our PC or the Web if we have Windows Vista installed. No software are needed in plug and play. We just connect the keyboard to our PC and go! Its optical technology is navistigate with better speed, accuracy and realibility. The optical sensor tracks movement on nearly any surface without the hassle of clogged mouse parts. 4.2 Software ??? 5.0 Pervasive Computing 5.1 Meaning Of Pervasive Computing Pervasive computing is refers to the use of computers in everyday life, including PDAs, smartphones and other mobile devices. It also refers to computers contained in commonplace objects such as cars and

appliances and implies that people are unaware of their presence. One of the Holy Grails of this environment is that all these devices communicate with each other over wireless networks without any interaction required by the users. \ 5.2 Examples ???

2.1(a)LINUX : Examples of open source operating system (Linux) is a Unix-like computer operating system assembled under the model of free and open source software development and distribution. The defining component of Linux is the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released 5 October 1991 by Linus Torvalds.[11][12] Linux was originally developed as a free operating system for Intel x86-based personal computers. It has since been ported to more computer hardware platforms than any other operating system. It is a leading operating system on servers and other big iron systems such as mainframe computers and supercomputers:[13][14][15][16] more than 90% of today's 500 fastest supercomputers run some variant of Linux,[17] including the 10 fastest.[18] Linux also runs on embedded systems (devices where the operating system is typically built into the firmware and highly tailored to the system) such as mobile phones, tablet computers, network routers, televisions[19][20] and video game consoles; the Android system in wide use on mobile devices is built on the Linux kernel. The development of Linux is one of the most prominent examples of free and open source software collaboration: the underlying source code may be used, modified, and distributedcommercially or noncommerciallyby anyone under licenses such as the GNU General Public License. Typically Linux is packaged in a format known as a Linux distribution for desktop and server use. Some popular mainstream Linux distributions include Debian (and its derivatives such as Ubuntu), Fedora and openSUSE. Linux distributions include the Linux kernel, supporting utilities and libraries and usually a large amount of application software to fulfill the distribution's intended use. A distribution oriented toward desktop use will typically include the X Window System and an accompanying desktop environment such as GNOME or KDE Plasma. Some such distributions may include a less resource intensive desktop such as LXDE or Xfce for use on older or less powerful computers. A distribution intended to run as a server may omit all graphical environments from the standard install and instead include other software such as the Apache HTTP Server and an SSH server such as OpenSSH. Because Linux is freely redistributable, anyone may create a distribution for any intended use. Applications commonly used with desktop Linux systems include the Mozilla Firefox web browser, the LibreOffice office application suite, and the GIMP image editor. Since the main supporting user space system tools and libraries originated in the GNU Project, initiated in 1983 by Richard Stallman, the Free Software Foundation prefers the name GNU/Linux.[21][22]

2.1(b)Ubuntu is a computer operating system based on the Debian Linux distribution and distributed as free and open source software, using its own desktop environment. It is named after the Southern African philosophy of ubuntu ("humanity towards others").[9] Most coverage of Ubuntu focuses on its use on desktop personal computers but it is also used on servers and for cloud computing. Ubuntu is sponsored by the UK-based company Canonical Ltd., owned by South African entrepreneur Mark Shuttleworth. Canonical generates revenue by selling technical support and services related to Ubuntu, while the operating system itself is entirely free of charge. The Ubuntu project is committed to the principles of free software development; people are encouraged to use free software, improve it, and distribute it.[10]

3.2(a) Asterisk is a software implementation of a telephone private branch exchange (PBX); it was created in 1999 by Mark Spencer of Digium. Like any PBX, it allows attached telephones to make calls to one another, and to connect to other telephone services including the public switched telephone network (PSTN) and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services. Its name comes from the asterisk symbol, *. Asterisk is released under a dual license model, using the GNU General Public License (GPL) as a free software license and a proprietary software license to permit licensees to distribute proprietary, unpublished system components. Originally designed for Linux, Asterisk also runs on a variety of different operating systems including NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris. A port to Microsoft Windows is known as AsteriskWin32.[1] Asterisk is small enough to run in an embedded environment like Customer-premises equipment-hardware running OpenWrt.[2]
