TOGAF as a Architecture Framework. Been running through the TOGAF framework and have been overall impressed with the structure of the process. From the way it is structured you can make out that it is a mish mash of Agile and reusable component model that is in vogue similat to any SOA roll outs.

More thoughts on its way as rummage through this material

NOKIA N810 / ROKU NETFLIX DEVICE / PS3/Mac Mini

Nokia N810 tablet is a device that can provide with hours of online time with good capabilities to handle most day to day activities. Been using this device for the last few weeks and it has replaced many times the use of my Laptop and Desktop.

Nice configurable interfaces with fantastic set of applications make it a desirable device to use.

Typical uses on a daily basis : I use it watch YOUTUBE. At times it is not great with a 3G connection through my Nokia 6655 (Service from AT&T) but streams well through the Wifi connect. Pairing up with the Nokia 6655 is a breeze and the connection is active only when needed.

Paired well with my Blue tooth Logitech keyboard. I use this with Yellow Dog Linux on my PS3. This paired up with my Nokia N810 without any problem.

Been using the device to add to my instant queue in Netflix and it helps a lot that i do not need to open up my Laptop to add to the queue. The Roku Netflix device works without any problems and the picture quality is good enough (not perfect HD content) on my Sony Bravia. This Roku device has made my Mac Mini redundant. I was using this device to play the movies on my Sony. I use VMWARE Fusion to run the Netflix streamer. The unity function in VMWARE fusion makes IE part of the MAC dock and makes it a nice way to use the device as a media center.

This is my own den, I just happen to stumble upon writing on topics ranging from Aardvarks to Zorillas. May be in these sections you may find interesting information, links to plentiful web sites where you can go through a journey. Since the topics are varied, you may end up checking out on the latest linux distro to the making of the march of the penguins , or a note on the movies i watched.

I would like to update the page as often as possible and would like to share things that Wowed me this week, the day, the month or the hour. Not sure however, how much i enjoyed that section or topic.

Well welcome to the journey, hopefully you enjoy my ramblings.

The CyberRange Exercise - What it entails and Why?

A cyber range exercise is a simulated cyberattack that is used to train cybersecurity professionals. Cyber range exercises can be used to train a variety of skills, including penetration testing, incident response, and threat hunting. Cyber range exercises can be customized to fit the needs of the organization or team. For example, an organization that is concerned about ransomware attacks could create a cyber range exercise that simulates a ransomware attack. The size of the team that participates in a cyber range exercise can vary. Some cyber range exercises are designed for individuals, while others are designed for teams of up to 100 people. The roles that the team members play will also vary depending on the exercise. Some common roles that team members play in cyber range exercises include: Attacker: The attacker is responsible for trying to exploit vulnerabilities in the system. Defender: The defender is responsible for defending the system from the attacker. Observer:...

The Convergence of Epistemologies: Mapping Quantum Physics to Ancient Indian Thought

The "Retrofitting" Fallacy A common critique from Western academia is that modern Indians suffer from "post-diction"—waiting for quantum physicists to make a discovery and then conveniently shoehorning it into a vague verse from the Upanishads . This critique relies on a fundamental misunderstanding of both language and methodology. The ancient seers ( Rishis ) were not writing religious poetry or mystical metaphors; they were writing cognitive science, cosmology, and metaphysics in a highly technical, high-context language (Sanskrit). When 19th-century colonial translators—who operated strictly on a Newtonian, binary, mechanical worldview—encountered these texts, they did not have the scientific vocabulary to comprehend them. They translated precise technical terms into crude religious dogma (e.g., Maya into "illusion"). Today, we are not "retrofitting" the old books to match new physics. We are finally acquiring the scientific vocabulary requi...
