THE LATEST OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE AVAILABLE AND THE
LATEST DEVELOPMENT IN ICT
1.0
INTRODUCTION
Meaning of open source software
Computer software with its source code made available with a license in which the copyright
holder provides the rights to study, change and distribute the software to anyone and for any
purpose.Open-source software is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner.
Open-source software is the most prominent example of open-source development and often
compared to (technically defined) user-generated content or (legally defined) open-content
movements.
2.0 The Latest Open Source Operating System
2.1 Meaning of open source OS
Software that manages computer hardware and software resources and provides common
services for computer programs. The operating system is an essential component of the
system software in a computer system. Application programs usually require an operating
system to function. Time-sharing operating systems schedule tasks for efficient use of the
system and may also include accounting software for cost allocation of processor time, massstorage, printing, and other resources. For hardware functions such as input and output and
memory allocation, the operating system acts as an intermediary between programs and the
computer hardware,although the application code is usually executed directly by the
hardware and will frequently make a system call to an OS function or be interrupted by it.
Operating systems can be found on almost any device that contains a computerfrom
cellular phones and video game consoles to supercomputers and web servers. Examples of
popular modern operating systems include Android, BSD, iOS, Linux, OS X, QNX,
Microsoft Windows.
2.2 Examples of open source OS
EXAMPLE NO 1. Android
Mobile operating system (OS) based on the Linux kernel that is currently developed by
Google. With a user interface based on direct manipulation, Android is designed primarily for
touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers, with specialized user
interfaces for televisions (Android TV), cars (Android Auto), and wrist watches (Android
Wear). The OS uses touch inputs that loosely correspond to real-world actions, like swiping,
tapping, pinching, and reverse pinching to manipulate on-screen objects, and a virtual
keyboard. Despite being primarily designed for touchscreen input, it also has been used ingame consoles, digital cameras, and other electronics.

3.0 The Latest Open Source Application Software.
3.1 Meaning of open source application software
Computer software that is available in source code form for which the source code and
certain other rights normally reserved for copyright holders are provided under a softwarelicense that permits users to study, change, and improve the software. Open source licenses
often meet the requirements of the Open Source Definition. Some open source application
software is available within the public domain. Open source application software is very
often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open source application software is the
most prominent example of open source development and often compared to user-generated
content or open content movements. The term open source application software originated as
part of a marketing campaign for free application software.

5.0 Pervasive Computing
5.1 Meaning of pervasive computing
Pervasive computing means that the technology is gracefully integrated in our
everyday life. The user is no longer aware of this embedded technology. It also refers
to computers contained in common place objects such as cars and etc. It appliances
and implies that people are unaware of their presence. Pervasive computing uses web
technology, portable devices, mobile devices, wireless communications and nomadic or
ubiquitos computing system. Other terms for pervasive computing are Ubiquitous
Computing, Calm Technology and Thing That Think. It is about the ability to deliver any
information to any device over any network. In short, it is about computers everywhere,
where computers are embedded into equipment, machines, furniture or people. The currenttechnology has evolved into embedded network and wireless .
5.2 Examples of pervasive computing
EXAMPLE NO 1
ASUS Eee Pad 101TC
The Eee Pad 101TC is in some respects a whole different kettle of fish to its bigger brother.
It's not just the 10 inches of glass that follows in the iPad's footsteps, but also the metal sleeve
around the edge now. Either way, this has become an aesthetically acceptable style and thetextured backside also looks good and adds grip, however in the early sample on show the
quality of manufacture still needs some tweaking around the edges.

EXAMPLE NO 2
SMART TV
An Internet-enabled TV set with advanced functions such as being able to update its
ownelectronic program guide (EPG), record programs (DVR capability) and provide
interactiveaccess to the Web for movie content as well as Web surfing.A smart TV may alsobe able to execute downloaded applications. For example, Samsung'sInternet@TV is a
feature upgrade for certain TV and Blu-ray player models that lets viewersdownload and run
apps.
6.0 Conclusion
Most of the open source software is licensed under what is often termed a
"copyleft"license[citation needed], a term which emphasizes the license's reversal of the
principles of copyright. A traditional license is used to limit freedoms, which the free
software movementconsiders essential, the "four software freedoms",taking them away from
the users eithercompletely ("you may not distribute the software") or partially ("you can usethe software for anevaluation period of 30 days; after that you must either pay a license
registration fee ordiscontinue the software").
