Improving Usability of the Linux Kernel Configuration Tools

by Kacper Bak
"... Tailoring a Linux kernel to one’s needs has been one of the most cumbersome tasks a GNU/Linux user can do. There have been many attempts to overcome this problem by introducing smarter configuration tools. Those tools, however, still lack some important features which discourages users from using th ..."

them. In this project, we address the problem of usability of the Linux kernel configuration tools. We identify the major usability issues with current tools, propose a better user interface, and evaluate it on a group of Linux enthusiasts. Author Keywords usability, linux, kernel, configuration

Using iPodLinux in an Introductory OS Course

by Barry Lawson, Lewis Barnett
"... This paper describes a proof of concept for introducing iPods and iPodLinux into a one-semester introductory undergraduate operating systems course. iPodLinux is a version of the Linux operating system modified to run on iPods. We added a project to our course in which the students modified the iPod ..."

Time Series Analysis with SAS R©and R

by Samuel T. Croker, Independent Consultant
"... When you need to analyze time series data but all you have is Base SAS R©then you are faced with the decision of how to conduct the analysis outside of SAS. This usually requires you to break the workflow into several different steps, which increases both the work and potential for errors. One attra ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
attractive solution is to use SAS for all data preparation and reporting while using R to conduct the analysis and data visualization. R is open source statistical computing and graphics software available for Windows, UNIX/LINUX and Mac OS X. The key to the simplicity of this technique is that all
