Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 4, Problem 4ARQ
Explanation of Solution
GNU:
The abbreviation for GNU is GNU’s Not Unix.
- It is a design which is used to create free Unix-like
operating system but different from UNIX. - The main aim of this design is to give freedom to all users to copy, modify, develop, design, and study the software.
- This goal was accomplished in the year of 1992 at the time of release of LINUX under the GNU General Public License.
GPL:
The abbreviation for GPL is General Public License.
- It uses free software license which is written by Richard Stallman.
- It helps the software to be used, modified, and restructured by anybody.
Three successful open source projects:
Open Office:
- The Open office which is similar to the Microsoft office can run on Linux operating system is one of the most popular open source projects and is also very useful in many organizations because it’s free and open source in nature.
Hadoop:
- Another successful open source project is Hadoop which is considered one of the latest
programming tools for data scientists for dealing with big data; it means that the dataset is very large ,which is not possible to handle using the traditionaldatabase management system. - Hadoop is known as one of the big data tools and it is free and a successful open source project.
MySQL:
- MySQL is one of the most popular database servers and one of the successful open source projects that has been used in many websites including Wikipedia, Facebook etc.
Apache Spark:
- It can also be considered as one of the latest successful open source project that has distributed data processing capabilities for processing huge amount of data sets within a small period of time for dealing with big data.
Four reasons for programmers to contribute to open source projects:
- Improved coding skills can be achieved.
- The programmers will get more experience and can get chance to learn new things from other developers who are currently working in the project.
- Another reason for contributing to the open source software is freedom to make new things.
- Another reason for contributing to open source software is to increase the peer recognition and to enjoy while developing any software product based on some specific needs and requirements...

Project Requirements The project consists in designing and implementing a Web application according to the methodology and the technologies illustrated and developed during the course. This document describe cross-cutting requirements the application must satisfy. The application must be realized with a combination of the following technologies: PHP MySQL HTML/CSS JavaScript, jQuery, etc templating The requirements are 2. Project size The application must have at least 18 SQL tables The number of SQL tables refers to the overall number of tables (including relation normalizations). 3. Methodology The application must be realized by adopting separation of logics, session management, and generic user management (authentication/permissions). Missing one of the above might correspond to a non sufficient score for the project. More in details: 3.1 Separation of Logics The separation of logics has to be realizse by using…arrow_forwardWrite a C program to calculate the function sin(x) or cos(x) using a Taylor series expansion around the point 0. In other words, you will program the sine or cosine function yourself, without using any existing solution. You can enter the angles in degrees or radians. The program must work for any input, e.g. -4500° or +8649°. The function will have two arguments: float sinus(float radians, float epsilon); For your own implementation, use one of the following relations (you only need to program either sine or cosine, you don't need both): Tip 1: Of course, you cannot calculate the sum of an infinite series indefinitely. You can see (if not, look in the program) that the terms keep getting smaller, so there will definitely be a situation where adding another term will not change the result in any way (see problem 1.3 – machine epsilon). However, you can end the calculation even earlier – when the result changes by less than epsilon (a pre-specified, sufficiently small number, e.g.…arrow_forward
