A white paper is a certain type of report that is distinctive in terms of purpose, audience, and organization. This resource will explain these issues and provide some other tips to enhance white paper content.
Inside Windows Vista, a good article to be read for windows developers and users.
PXE Network Boot is an Intel technology that can boot a system and install OS from remote image source. The prerequisites to achieve this include: a ROM embedded into a network card confroming Intel PXE specification, a DHCP server that can serve as a responser of the request sent by NIC card and assign an IP for it, a remote boottrap and kernel over TFTP protocol. In this demo, additionally we will use a NFS server that provides the actual image source.Read more...
Most windows kernel routines use the following naming structure:
Linux boot process is something that needs to be reasonably clear for people who intend to use Linux as an embedded OS.
The Ext4 file system leaves its main development phase and will soon be ripe for productive use. Major renovation work on the code for memory and disk management promises GPU speed increases and better scalability. Hundreds of new and revised drivers improve hardware compatibility significantly.
Here are some notes on setting up Environment Variables on Microsoft Windows and other operating systems and runtime environments.
In original model of SNMP Management, it is a monolithic Agent that used to carry out all the management responsibilities on a given network element (node). This solution was not flexible enough to provide an effective management of increasingly complex and distributed systems.
With the following kernel API, we can invoke user mode application from Kernel modules/threads.
int call_usermodehelper (char * path, char ** argv, char ** envp, int wait);

The Linux kernel has for a long time (at least since v2.1.23) contained a clever and well-optimised mechanism for calling initialisation code in drivers. It's clever because its functionality is largely abstracted from the driver developer, and it's well-optimised because after initialisation, memory containing the initialisation code is released. This article explores how this mechanism works.
