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.

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.

Where are we headed ... A crystal ball into Cybersecurity in the next five years .. Are we ready?

  The future of Cyber Security: Trends and Predictions for the Next 5 years The field of cybersecurity is constantly evolving, and the threats are only getting more sophisticated. In the next five years, we can expect to see a number of trends emerge in the field of cybersecurity, including: The rise of artificial intelligence (AI). AI is already being used by cybercriminals to develop more sophisticated and targeted attacks. As AI continues to develop, it is likely that cybercriminals will be able to use it to even greater effect. The increasing use of cloud computing. Cloud computing has many benefits, but it also introduces new security challenges. Cloud-based data is often more vulnerable to attack than data that is stored on-premises. The growth of the Internet of Things (IoT). The IoT is connecting billions of devices to the internet, which creates a vast new attack surface for cybercriminals. IoT devices are often poorly secured, making them easy targets for attack. The shor...

The Shifting Landscape of Knowledge and the Nobel Prize

Our recent conversation sparked some interesting thoughts about the prestigious Nobel Prize and the distribution of its recipients across the globe. Inspired by a user's search history, we delved into the fascinating patterns and potential implications of who gets recognized for groundbreaking achievements. The initial point of discussion centered on the user's search activity, which revealed an interest in various scientific and technological topics, as well as a specific search for "Nobel Prize winners by country." This led us to explore the geographical distribution of Nobel laureates, and a question arose: why does it seem that certain schools and countries, particularly in the West, have a higher representation? We considered several factors that might contribute to this observation: Historical Dominance in Science: Historically, Western nations have often been at the forefront of scientific research due to earlier investments and established infrastructure. V...
