...hardware and application failures may also occur within a centralized system as well as distributed systems. In the event of an application failure, it is important to first be able to differentiate between operator error and software error in order to determine the point of failure. When a hardware error occurs, this can be due to a few simple causes. Hardware failures occur when a single component within the system fails. The most common types of hardware failures are of a link, a site, or the loss of a message. At one point hardware failures were a common occurrence, but with recent innovations in hardware design and manufacturing these failures tend to be few and far between. Instead, more failures that now occur tend to be network or drive related. Network failures refer to the failure of links within the distributed system network. Processors within a distributed system need to be able to communicate with each other via the network. When a link in this network connection fails, this causes functions to cease running. Application failure occur to the failure of applications that run within the system, and can occur when the application stops working or operates incorrectly. These failures may be caused by a variety of issues, including software bugs. Because there are numerous fail points in...

...failures which are Crash failures also known as operating system failures, Hardware Failures, Omission Failures and Byzantine Failures. Included in the discussion are failures which can also occur in a centralized computer system, and how to isolate and repair two types of failures. Crash failures are normally associated with a server fault in a typical distributed system. Inherently crash failures are interrupt operations of the server and can halt operation for a considerable time (Projects Helper, 2012).Operating system failures are the best examples for this scenario. Operating System or software failures come in many more varieties than hardware failures. Software bugs in distributed systems can be difficult to replicate and, consequently, repair and or debug. Corresponding fault tolerant systems are developed and employed with respect to these affects. An operating system or software failure can also occur in a centralized system such as a data base this is why it is highly recommended to back up a data base using stable mass storage media (Projects Helper, 2012). We have an extensive data base on our server at my work place. The storage back-up is run daily. I cannot imagine the man-hours it would take to re-input even a month’s worth of production data if it were lost due to a failure the system could not recover from. Hardware failures can occur in both distributed and centralized systems. Hardware failures used to be more common, but with all of the recent innovations...

...Ransomware Discuss the threat When infected restricts you to access to a computer system. This will become more refined in its targets and methods. Experts predict that the variants of ransomware that hurt the security software that are installed within a computer may particularly target the endpoints which sign up with cloud-based storage solutions like Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive and many more. On detecting the endpoint, ransomware will exploit the stored personal credentials of the logged-in user and will even infect the cloud storage that is backed up. McAfee has warned that ransomware attackers will try out as many ways possible to shell out ransom payments from their victims. Degree of damage The most advanced and most damaging ransomware in the wild at the moment, specifically targeting U.S. businesses and individuals. It's a $70 million per year criminal enterprise. Its magnitude is now confirmed by law enforcement. Some quick math shows $18,145 in costs per victim, caused by network mitigation, network countermeasures, loss of productivity, legal fees, IT services, and/or the purchase of credit monitoring services for employees or customers. As you can see, the total costs of a ransomware infection goes well above just the ransom fee itself, which is usually around $500 but can go up to $10,000. What it attacked Ransomware is a type of malware that infects a computer and restricts a user’s access to the infected computer. This type of malware...

...Jonathan Sandoval SG420 Game Bug Report March 31, 2013 If one wants to start a career in the video gaming industry as a tester, one must be able to connect the dots between seemingly unrelated events. Writing a video game concern might seem like a simple task but it comes with a great deal of responsibility. This is a communication from which other people will base a plan of action on. Those actions often include committing costly resources to resolving the issue. When writing a Game Bug Report, it is important to provide as much information as one can in order for the bug to be “fixed”. The faster the bug is found, the faster the bug will be fixed, thus helping everyone in the long run. A bug report can be broken down in four sections. Title: * Summarizes the important factors of the issue. * Simple overview of what, where, when, why and how it is caused, highlighting the most important considerations in the game. * Indicates how severe it is. * Is used by others to plan a course of action, so it needs to be understood at a glance. Description: * Succinct description of who, what, where, when, why and how it is caused without leaving out any details. * Here you should describe accurately EVERYTHING about the concern. * Describe it in such a way that the reader can reproduce it SOLELY from the description and understands completely what is happening. * You may use industry standard jargon to help accurately describe the issue...

While conventional penetration testing has a predetermined actor testing a predetermined scope, Bug Bounties generally allow for any actor to attempt to exploit the service without fear of prosecution. If this actor stays within the scope of the Bounty (e.g. not compromising personal data, breaking key infrastructure, etc.), and reports the bug responsibly to the company, without publicly releasing it first, they may receive compensation or awards. Bug Bounties have become increasingly...

...Abstract In this research paper I will be discussing the bug that was discovered and reported in 1994. The Intel P5 chip was found to have a floating point unit bug that made digital divide operation in algorithms flaw after the 4th decimal point. I will also be touching on the contributions of Professor Thomas R. Nicely and the time line on which he brought attention to the bug from the Intel P5. The Pentium FDIV bug The Pentium FDIV bug was first discovered by a professor named Thomas R. Nicely from Lynchburg College in Virginia. He discovered there were a few missing entries in the lookup table by the digital divide operation algorithm. Sadly Intel knew about the bug when they were testing the chip in June of 1994. Intel’s managers decided the error would not affect as many people as it would to issue a recall, and that they should not inform anyone outside the company. Later thet same month Dr. Nicely, a professor of mathematics noticed small differenced in two sets of numbers. Dr. Nicely spent months eliminating possible causes such ad PCI bus errors and compiler artifacts. October 19th after testing on several 486 and Pentium-based computers Dr. Nicely was certain that the error was caused by the Intel P5 processor. On the 24th of October he contacted Intel technical support and the support representative confirmed the error and said that it was not reported before. Then on October 30th after receiving no more information from Intel he sent an email message...

...Bugs Bunny has and continues to be a standing favorite all, his popularity spans generations crossing over form one millennia to the next, he is iconically global and can be viewed in many languages in thousands of homes. True to form the creation of this character has spawned within our culture a love for such a character that he has become not only a welcomed spokes person but an undying legend whose roots can possibly be traced back hundreds of years he is everybody’s hero we laugh and cheer when he is victorious and are shocked and somewhat upset when he “loses.” Warner Bros., released his first cartoon over sixty years ago. Since “There have been over 150 Bugs Bunny cartoons, and all but about twelve are still shown rather frequently on television today. Bugs has had a more diverse and accomplished career than many Hollywood actors ever have, and some of the zaniest and funniest performances ever in film history. This did not happen overnight, by any means. Bugs Bunny's cartoons were directed over the years by such creative geniuses as Tex Avery, Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, Bob Clampett, Robert McKimson, Frank Tashlin, and others, all of whom left their mark in film history with these animated films, and Bugs was only one of the dozens of classic creations these men worked with and created. Also not to be forgotten are the creators of the Warner cartoon soundtrack, Mel Blanc (the voice of Bugs) and musicians Carl Stalling, Milt Franklyn and William Lava” (Hunter). ...

...This was just the beginning of his downfall and it all began on February 14, 1929. First of all, Chicago had split into two rival gangs led by Al Capone and George “Bugs” Moran, by the late 1920’s. Both of these leaders vied for power, prestige, and money (Rosenberg 1). Much of the problems arose after Capone’s former enemy Dion O’ Banion was killed and it started an all-out-war in the city (The St. 1). Moran was soon the new leader. Capone’s hopes of obtaining more territory were diminished and this frustrated him. Al Capone soon began to brainstorm into developing an attempt towards George “Bugs” Moran (Rosenberg 1). Capone’s reputation as a bootlegger would soon change into horror. In order for everything to turn out as planned, Al Capone obtained help from Jack “Machine Gun” McGurn. McGurn was placed in charge to organize an assassination attempt towards “Bugs” Moran. McGurn was said to have survived many attempts so he was perfect for Madueño 2 the job. The plan was to select gunmen outside of the Chicago area. This was to ensure that if there were any survivors, they wouldn’t be able to recognize the killers as part of Capone’s gang. McGurn also acquired a stolen police car and various police uniforms. After all of this was set, Capone sent a Detroit gangster to offer Moran a load of hijacked booze. Bugs agreed to gather the delivery at his gang’s headquarters, a garage at 2122 North Clark Street (Sifakis 289). Capone had a very special “valentine” that he wanted delivered...

It is the longest word in the English language published in a dictionary, the Oxford English Dictionary. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, it is "an artificial long word said to mean a lung disease caused by inhaling very fine ash and sand dust."[1] Silicosis is a form of occupational lung disease caused by inhalation of crystalline silica dust, and is marked by inflammation and scarring in the form of nodular lesions in the upper lobes of the lungs. It is a type of pneumoconiosis Statement of the problem 1. What is the couse of Pneumoconiosis? 2. How can it be prevented? 3. What are the symptoms? 4. How can affect in our body? 5. What are the treatment? Statement of the Hypothesis HO1: .A pneumoconiosis cause by inhalation of every fine silicate or quartz dust which is found in volcanic ash. HO2: Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is fairly easy to prevent. Most countries do not have any volcanoes or any other places where silica dust exposure is likely. In case you live in one of the countries that does, here are few ways how to prevent this disease: Do not go in or near an active or non-dormant volcano. Do not expose yourself to silica dust for long periods of time. If or long periods of time...

...Al Capone Alphonse Capone is the son of Neapolitan immigrants Gabriel and Teresa Capone. They had nine children. He was their forth, born January 17, 1899, in Brooklyn, New York. This is where he attended Public School 7 from age 5 to 14 until an incident with his 6th grade teacher, he gave her a beating and was then beaten and expelled by his principal, never to return. Beatings were a typical form of punishment for public school in this age and young Al was known to challenge authority. Expelled from school and transplanted to a different neighborhood, Capone met notorious criminals like; Johnny Torrio and Lucky Luciano when he joined two street gangs, the Brooklyn Rippers and the Forty Thieves Juniors. Within a few years he was regularly involved in organized crime. Capone worked at a night club called the Harvard Inn for the crime boss Frankie Yale. One night at the Harvard Inn, Capone insulted a young woman which led to fight. The brother of the woman gave Al a beating and a new nickname “Scarface”. This incident also led to Capone’s first arrest “disorderly conduct”. Al met Mary “Mae” Coughlin, a young Irish woman at a dance in 1918. It must have been a tumultuous, whirlwind of a romance because she gave birth to their son Albert “Sonny” Capone on December 4th, 1918 and then they married on December 30th, 1918. Capone was the prime suspect of two murders and the brutal beating of a rival gang member that led to an extended hospital stay. Frankie Yale knew that the...
