Interprocess communication (IPC) is a group of programming interfaces which enable a software developer or programmer to coordinate different tasks and activities among different program operations which execute simultaneously in the operating system. IPC enables a program to handle many user requests at the same time. An user request results in execution of multiple processes in the operating system. The processes must communicate with one other to carry out their tasks. The interfaces of IPC aids in communication,data exchange among the different processes. There are advantages and disadvantages present in every method of IPC. A single program can ...

An operating system forms the core of a computer in that it coordinates the processes of the computer, its memory, and all of the computer’s hardware and software. It likewise permits the user to connect with the computer even without prior knowledge of how to interpret the language of the computer. A computer without an operating system is non-functional. In most cases, there are some diverse computer programs functioning simultaneously, and they all must access the memory, storage, and the central processing unit (CPU) of the computer. The operating system harmonizes all the programs to make sure every ...

A digital image is a numerical representation of (usually binary) a two-dimensional image. It could be of the vector or the raster type. Normally, the phrase “digital image” refers to raster or bitmapped images. Raster images possess a fixed amount of digital values, which are called picture elements or pixels. Every image has a fixed number of rows and columns of these pixels. The pixels are stored in the memory of computers as raster images consisting of arrays of numbers. These are stored and transmitted in compressed formats (Sprawls, 2017). Computers are able to produce descriptive information about a ...

Errors involved in digital image capturing and processing can either be systematic or random. Systematic errors are classified into geometric distortions, spectral errors and distortions. Geometric distortions are caused by sensor-Earth geometric variations which affects the position of a pixel relative to other pixels,. In digital images, the pixel position is compared to the other pixels in the scene and the absolute position of the pixel relative to real coordinates in latitudes and longitudes. Geometric distortions can render the image and the information expected to be derived from the image as useless,. This is because the image is sometimes ...

The concept of free trade has indeed presented some industries as more appealing to the consumer than others. For instance, the standard practice is that most agricultural food processing and manufacturing industries are liked and loved by the public while the agricultural non-food processing industries such as the tobacco industry have been continuously subjected to criticism and unjustified treatment from the larger public. The tobacco industry, in particular, has been subjected to excessive taxation, stringent operational rules and regulations and publicly portrayed as a health hazard primarily because tobacco smoking and usage is associated with liver cirrhosis and some ...

ABSTRACT

Cloud computing employs the use of parallel and highly computed processors to virtually and remotely deliver services. This is an important factor forenterprises whose processing resources are limited and who suffer limitations on the manpower and data storage. This notwithstanding, cloud computing faces a serious threat in the area of data security. This is because the attackers have become very opportunistic and look for any slight loophole that will enable them to bypass the server securities within the cloud computing environment. It is thus important to come up with a systematic approach that can help in identifying the vulnerabilities ...

Digital image analysis is a method of extraction of useful information from digital images by using various digital image processing techniques. A digital image is a two-dimensional matrix that consists of great number of smallest addressable elements – pixels. Each pixel has its own digital characteristics, such as address and color representation. Digital image characteristics have two main measures: spatial resolution that is focused on capturing details and tonal resolution that is used to measure color, dynamic range and bit-depth. Higher tonal, spatial, and color values mean larger sizes of digital image file. (Peterson, 2005, pp. 1-2) The appropriate method ...

Discussion Question

Hive was discovered by Jeff Hammerbacher during his tenure at Facebook. Facebook was receiving huge volumes of data daily, and there was a need to create a mechanism to help in data storage, mining, and analysis. It is this tool that allows Facebook to process thousands of Terabytes of Data with ease on a daily basis. Hive employs a language called HQL which works in a similar way as SQL. Irrespective of the limitations of commands that HQL understands, the language is still useful. Hive gives users with little programming knowledge the capacity to process, extract and analyze data ...

Apache Distribution

Apache Hadoop refers to an open source framework that provides the users with a distributed platform for processing of large sets of data across collections of machines using simple programming paradigms (Hortonwork, 2011). The distribution allows scalability from one server to several servers, with each server rendering resident processing and storage. One of the features that make apache preferred by several organizations is its capability to hold, manage and analyze huge volumes of both structured and unstructured data quickly and at low cost.

The Corpus Callosum is the largest commissure, which facilitates communication between the right and left hemispheres of the brain. The views on the value of the Corpus Callosum are varied: from the most "useless" to those defining the higher cognitive functions of human brain structure. According to modern concept, the role of Corpus Callosum is not limited to the transfer of information. This commissure enables meta-control of the information in both hemispheres, as one of them must establish the function of its processing (Banich, 1995). Corpus Callosum not only transmits sensory information, ensuring its double representation in every hemisphere, ...

Multiple factors went into play before the Europeans claimed dominance over world trade routes and conquered vast lands outside Europe. With a particular interest in the fact that the Chinese boasted better navigation tools and sea vessels than the Portuguese and the Spanish did by the fifteenth century (World Shrinks17mins), the rise of the West benefited greatly from the lack of competition. In other words, if the Chinese had maintained their desire to show their military prowess to other nations, then the West would have taken longer if not failed to come into power. A view of the animated ...
