...Introduction and Abstract Copyright(c), 1984, Fred Cohen - All Rights Reserved This paper defines a major computer security problem called a virus. The virus is interesting because of its ability to attach itself to other programs and cause them to become viruses as well. There are two spellings for the plural of virus; 'virusses', and 'viruses'. We use the one found in Webster's 3rd International Unabridged Dictionary Given the wide spread use of sharing in current computer systems, the threat of a virus carrying a Trojan horse [Anderson72] [Linde75] is significant. Although a considerable amount of work has been done in implementing policies to protect from the illicit dissemination of information [Bell73] [Denning82], and many systems have been implemented to provide protection from this sort of attack [McCauley79] [Popek79] [Gold79] [Landwehr83], little work has been done in the area of keeping information entering an area from causing damage [Lampson73] [Biba77]. There are many types of information paths possible in systems, some legitimate and authorized, and others that may be covert [Lampson73], the most commonly ignored one being through the user. We will ignore covert information paths throughout this paper. The general facilities exist for providing provably correct protection schemes [Feiertag79], but they depend on a security policy that is effective against the types of attacks being carried out. Even some quite simple protection systems cannot be proven 'safe' [Harrison76]...

...their temper and values. As a result, the both sides will fight against each other. Gamble is also present in the game, the highest bet is 5,000 pesos and the lowest is 300 pesos. Again, money for them is not that important anymore. Many players says that “Dota is the best past time ever,” so it’s Ok for them to waste their money. Due to playing, eating is irrelevant; the satisfaction they get form playing is the same as the satisfaction they get from eating. As a result, the body’s immune systems are getting weaker and now expose the different viruses and diseases. All in all, Dota really affects the life style of the youth who are in to this game, although it has one good benefit, but it corrupts the mind and the way the youth think. It also weakened the body system, money and moral values were not given importance because of this game. There are many students and even some young professional are addicted to Defense of the Ancients or Dota. This is a kind of computer games that can be played by many players and is one of the most popular games to young students. Many students get addicted to this game and they even long hours inside the computer shop just playing this kind of game. There are studies that getting addicted in playing computer games affects their studies and this is the cause why they are lying to their parents that they need extra money for their school project but the truth is they are just using the money to rent a computer where they can play Dota with their...

...These wars caused many laborers to stop their way of living and move into the cities. Thus diseases and viruses, such as the smallpox, infected the cities causing death to many.1With emperors coming and going, one strict emperor named Diocletian, ruled. In his reign, he was able to save the economy and handle the army’s needs.1His most important contribution was when he decided to separate administrations. He instituted the Tetrarchy, which separated the empire into the Western and Eastern Roman Empire, appointing an emperor and a junior emperor to each empire.1Diocletian became a branch that led to a declining Western Empire and a flourishing Eastern...

...Of all the marvelous feats in Roman architecture, few rival the societal contributions of the Cloaca Maxima and the system of Aqueducts. Sanitation in early Roman society was far from adequate. With the lack of any significant drainage system, human and animal waste alike covered the streets and flooding among low lying areas of the city was substantial . The issue of water was also prevalent. The city suffered from a lack of fresh water flow that not only led to an extreme shortage of drinkable water, but also to a stagnation of the city’s waste . Rome was in desperate need of a system that both provided water free from pollution for consumption and also supplied a constant flow to the various public baths, toilets, fountains, and private households. The Great Greek historian Dionysius of Halicarnassus stated in his collection “Roman Antiquities” that “The extraordinary greatness of the Roman Empire manifests itself above all in three things: the aqueducts, the paved roads, and the construction of the drains .” Dionysius’ statement certainly rang true. The commissioning of the roman aqueducts as well as the construction and expansion of the Cloaca Maxima were vital to the improved sanitation in Rome. To understand how important these two architectural feats were to the Roman people, it is necessary to first understand the state of Roman sanitation before major expansions to the aqueducts and sewage system. Most Romans relied heavily on limited local sources like springs and...

.... . 0/ The GOD of the Hebrews versus the Egyptian gods Rev. Bryant S. Williamson Prof. Linda Reaves Writing and Research 215, Strayer University November 8, 2011 Intoduction There is a belief in a supreme being by all religions on earth. I believe that the same GOD of the Hebrews is this GOD because of his display of power over the Egyptian gods. This report looks at one account of many in the bible where GOD uses an ordinary man to free his people from bondage in Egypt using signs and wonders. The God of the Hebrews Versus the Egyptian gods One of the most awesome displays of power and love in the Bible is the deliverance of Gods’ people from Egypt. They were lead out of Egypt by Moses, a Hebrew found floating in an ark by Pharaohs daughter as a child. Moses, now grown, went out unto his people and saw an Egyptian beating one of his brethren and killed the Egyptian. After hearing of what Moses had done the Pharaoh sought to kill him but Moses had fled to the city of Midian and as time went on the King of Egypt died and the children of Israel (Hebrews) cried out to God because of their bondage. Thus the Lord remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and Jacob and sent Moses as the deliverer of his people. Moses is then encountered in the presence of God being called out of the mist of a burning bush and is given instructions to return to Egypt with Aaron where he demands that Pharaoh set his people free. And Pharaoh replies “Who is the Lord that...

...Life as a woman in Athens A historic view point by Cecil Fuson. Being a woman in Ancient Athens was not what the movies and Plays led me to believe. The Athenian Democracy was a democracy of the minority. Every man, no matter their class had equal say in the ruling of the government. But Women, Slaves and Foreigners had zero civil rights and no influence on how things were done. Because the Athenian’s were a very exclusive society, they rarely allowed outsiders share in the privileges the citizens had. As Such, Female Children were raised to serve. To produce new citizens for the polis. It was not uncommon for a young woman’s freedom to be restricted during their reproductive years. Or even to be married off to a family member. Doing so ensured that the financial resources were kept within the family. That leaves a very dark image of life for a woman in Athens. However this was not the way it was for all women. There were the Mistress of upper class. They were trained in the general arts. Thus allowing them to participate in debates and other acts that most women were cut off from. However life was not all peaches and cream for the mistress. They paid for their freedom. They gave up all possibility of having kids as well as of ever having a normal home life. Some believe that the Hetaera as they were called were borderline prostitutes. There was a big difference between the poor and wealthy families. Women from poor families, while not able to take part of normal...

...Egyptian art Egyptian art remained unchanged while Greek art changed rapidly because of there beliefs in the afterlife. Egyptians believed that there life on earth was all about trying to get to the after life. They would have extravagant tombs with gold and gems to help get them to the afterlife. The Egyptians would put gold in the pyramids because it was unchanging it would help protect the body so the spirts would be able to come back to a mummified body and cross over to the afterlife. Egyptians believed that the spirt wouldn’t come back to a body that was altered or not intact. So the art in the pyramids had to all remain the same because there was no telling when the spirt would come back to reenter the body. The Egyptians were rooted in there old ways and were not willing to change they did have some outside influence in there style inevitably but most of there styles were unchanged because of the one single ruler the pharaoh he was rooted in the old way and with him being the ruler what he said went. The priest who were responsible for the fallow through of the pharaoh. They believed that there was Devine kingship and that was directly shown in there stagnate style of art. The pharaohs court laid down the standards applied throughout Egypt. Individual artist had very little opportunity to exercise there own inuegity by deviating from the accepted standard. The Egyptians would put face masks on the dead mummified bodies jewels rapped in the bandages and perfume on them...

...Rome- Engineering an Empire As the saying goes “Rome wasn’t built in a day”, it really wasn’t, Romans revolutionized architecture. They did everything from perfecting the arch and making vaulted ceilings, to making the first efficient waterways, and encasing an empire with security in the form of stone walls. These very feats are what make the Romans great in my eyes. I don’t think people of the 21st century can even comprehend what kind of work force was necessary to complete the tasks they did. My reaction to what the Romans accomplished is nothing short of truly shocker. As previously stated, I don’t think people can actually comprehend what kind of work force was needed to do these architectural pieces. We currently have to employee people which in turn makes it difficult to produce truly staggering pieces. Having to employee workers and not just enslave employers makes things like the Pantheon more difficult to do because it would cost much more to make. It would make it harder to build because of employing the workers and the resources now days have inflated to a greater degree. We would also not be able to complete the Pantheon as fast as they did because of slave labor you can make them work around the clock, unlike the times of today with all of the regulations. Another one of my reactions to the Romans Architecture is how many pieces of architecture they actually completed. Between all of the aqueducts to all of the governmental builds and squares. But, but...

Material remains vs written records Contrast ‘pre history’ Texts written by ancient writers about the Greek and Roman past - Herodotus, Polybius, Tacitus, Livy Mostly survived as manuscripts copied by medieval monks- NOT found on archaeological sites Exceptions- some that combine archaeology material evidence and historical written records Eg Inscriptions- written records (on stone, bronze etc) AND material remains (eg a statue base with inscription on to Lucius Licinius Primitivus, Misenum, Italy) Kinds of material evidence: Pottery, building foundations, human/faunal remains, weapons, tools, coins, floral remains, fruit seeds, fish bones, works of art (tell us about myth, culture, games etc) Culture - human behaviour in societies- religion, economy, military, entertainment, political, social stature, food preparation and eating, death and burial Archaeology vs collecting and antiquarianism Archaeology involves the study of material remains for a reason =in order to study culture Contrast with collecting and ‘antiquarianism’ – in which the objects collected are themselves the sole focus of interest Archaeology and History Archaeology and history are not the same History deals primarily with written evidence Archaeology deals primarily with material evidence We must...

...Comparative Essay Classical Chinese and Ancient Egyptian cultures reveal the complexities of love through their works of literature, which involves the feminine chastity in a romantic plot. Throughout history, women set the role model for the appropriate engagement in premarital sexual behavior with men. In the Classical Chinese poem, “Zhongzi, Please,” we uncover a conservative female character who is afraid of society's criticisms if she is seen with a male figure. On the other hand, in the Ancient Egyptian poem, "The Beginning of the Song that Diverts the Heart," we encounter a rebellious female character who embarks on a mission to persuade her lover to indulge in a sexual relationship. Both poems in Ancient Egypt and Classical China share similarities because the character’s response to love reflects their cultural beliefs. Confucius’ teachings about respect and obedience are reinforced several times in the Classical Chinese poem, “Zhongzi, Please,” through a female character’s reaction to her lover. The respectful manner to say “please” is used several times by the female to kindly ask her lover to pull back on his amorous advances. Also, we can infer the female’s usage of the word “please” as a strategy to attract her lover. The word “please” (1, 9, 17) conflicts with Confucius’ ideals of a women to restrain from romantic exposure, but his teachings are again reinforced with the repetition of line breaks of sentence for example, “Zhongzi, please / don’t cross my...

...Michael Miranda 12-20-10 The Han and Romans were very large empires that existed from 200 B.C.E through 200 C.E. Technology was key to both empires but they both had different views on technology. Both empires used water to their advantage but the way they used it was different, for example the Han used water to benefit the everyday man while the Romans built the aqueducts, which only benefitted people that had homes. The way they treated the people was different because the Han followed Confucius’ teachings while the Romans were selfish towards the people. The Romans and Han had a huge thing in common which was that they felt superior to the rest of the world. These two empires had many similarities but the way they viewed things was different. A thing that was very vital to both empires was water because without it they probably would have not been the empires that they were. The Romans had aqueducts, which benefitted any landowners, and they were very proud of according to Frontinus who said “The abundance of water is sufficient not only for public and private uses and applications but truly even for pleasure”. According to Huan Tan the Han used the water to make inventions because he said, “Water power was also applied (pestle and mortar)”. Although they both used water to build inventions the Romans built their inventions on a large scale while the Han built theirs on a small scale. The Han treated the lower class with respect while the Romans...

...Introduction to Humanities Janel Carrier AIU Abstract This paper compares and contrasts distinguishing elements or features of early Greek and Roman cultures. It includes a table that illustrates significant examples of the various features. It also includes the elements of culture such as government, geographical terrain, economics and trade practices, art, architecture, philosophical and religious beliefs. Elements | Greek | Roman | Government and geographical terrain | Is a Mediterranean country. But Greek city states were separated by hilly country sides and water. “Greece communities began to organize themselves and exercise authority over their own limited geographical regions, which were defined by natural boundaries- mountains, rivers, and plains (Henry Sayre, 2013, pg 49)”. Greeks had many different types of governments. They all changed over time due to new beliefs or ideas. “Greece began by having monarchies, then oligarchies, then tyrannies and then democracies, but at each period there were plenty of city stated using a different system, and there were many which never did become democracies or tyrannies at all ( History for kids, 2012)”. That could because of a lot of things, distance from the other Greek city’s, population, production, etc. | Is a Mediterranean country. Rome was an inland country on the side of the Tiber river. It did not have much of a hilly geographical terrain. In Italy, around Naples, mt. Vesuvius produced fertile land by blanketing...
