Commercially, innumerable consignments of valuable freight are moved across India every day. On certain routes, there is always a lurking threat to the security of the freight and finding good food is also problematic for the truckers. Truck drivers have a high rate of occupation-related injury and the highest rate of on-job fatality. This project aims to develop an android application for android operating system (OS) platform which helps drivers to get help from their passersby or forthcoming trucks and send alert to their owners if there is any threat in their routes. The Owners can monitor the movement of their trucks and the threats as well. This ensures better communication with drivers on the fleet on the same route under a single corridor. This app is developed using the platform Android Studio which is a free and open-source software.

After the contentious reforms framed by the government for farmers, their lives have been exacerbated. They are not able to get an equitable price for the production because of middlemen and their burgeoning commission. Apart from that, because of the lack of knowledge amongst the farmers about certain things like mercurial weather conditions in the monsoon, contamination of crops because of certain deleterious pesticides, queries regarding soil fertility etc. they have been suffering through huge losses financially as well as their productions are getting wasted. An idea is presented here which can help farmers get better prices for their produced goods excluding the middlemen and their hefty commissions. Also, legit advice from an expert can help farmers a lot to increase the production as well as financial losses can be prevented. In the proposed idea, an android mobile application developed in Android Studio, an official integrated development tool or environment for Google’s Android operating system with farmer-friendly UI designed in Adobe XD is implemented in JAVA and firebase cloud firestore is used in the backend to get interminable services.

In this technological world, smartphones can be considered as one of the most far-reaching inventions. It plays a vital role in connecting people socially. The number of mobile users using an Android based smartphone has increased rapidly since last few years resulting in organizations, cyber cell departments, government authorities feeling the need to monitor the activities on certain targeted devices in order to maintain proper functionality of their respective jobs. Also with the advent of smartphones, Android became one of the most popular and widely used Operating System. Its highlighting features are that it is user friendly, smartly designed, flexible, highly customizable and supports latest technologies like IoT. One of the features that makes it exclusive is that it is based on Linux and is Open Source for all the developers. This is the reason why our project Mackdroid is an Android based application that collects data from the remote device, stores it and displays on a PHP based web page. It is primarily a monitoring service that analyzes the contents and distributes it in various categories like Call Logs, Chats, Key logs, etc. Our project aims at developing an Android application that can be used to track, monitor, store and grab data from the device and store it on a server which can be accessed by the handler of the application.

This paper evaluates the performances of numerous encryption algorithms on mobile devices running the Android operating system. The primary objective of our research was to measure and compare the relative performances of tested algorithm implementations (Data Encryption Standard (DES), 3DES, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), ChaCha20, Blowfish, and Rivest Cipher 4 (RC4)) on the Android platform. The algorithms were compared in terms of CPU utilization by measuring the time required to encrypt and decrypt variable size text files. Besides evaluating the six common symmetric encryption ciphers, a comparison has been conducted for several Password-Based Encryption (PBE) algorithms. Diverse cipher transformations were evaluated for each algorithm by utilizing various feedback modes and padding schemes. Two smartphone devices were used for testing, with different versions of the Android operating system and hardware specifications. The summarized performance outcomes for various cipher transformations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of each algorithm.

This paper is focused on the usage of location services in mobile applications that were developed for the purpose of reporting different events that are based on their location. The event that is intended to be generic and universal can, as in examples used in this paper, be the reporting of some occurrence to a city’s communal affairs office. Such a generic event can include both multimedia and textual data, in addition to location information obtained using mobile device running the app. The software solution that is described in this paper consists of a mobile application that was developed for the Android operating system and a web application that includes a series of PHP scripts that run on a dedicated server. The web application consists of a backend scripts that facilitate the communication of a smart phone and the server and frontend related scripts used by users and administrators to access and check the data and process the reported events.

The increasing prominence and variety of open source software (OSS) threaten to upset conventional approaches to software development and marketing. While a tremendous amount of scholarship has been published on the differences between proprietary and OSS development, little has been discussed regarding the effect of rhetorical appeals used to promote either type of software. This chapter offers just such an examination, focusing its scrutiny on the websites for three pairs of competitors (operating system, Web browser, and image manipulation program). The means by which the OSS websites promote their programs provide a significant set of insights into the potential trajectory of OSS development and its widespread public acceptance, in terms of both its initial philosophy and its perceived alternative nature to traditional software products and models.

Though commercial CFD codes are widely used in flow analysis, but there are free/open source programs which have been applying for computational fluid dynamics. An open source software makes it possible to customize the solver according to the flow features. In the present paper, cavitating flows over 2D NACA66 hydrofoil were simulated based on open source software, where SALOME is used for mesh generation, OpenFOAM for flow solution under Debian GNU/Linux operating system. The results show the simulated cavitating flow characteristics such as cavity revolution, vortex shedding, cavitation induced pressure vibrations, etc. are validated by experiments and results obtained from proprietary software as Ansys Fluent. Thus, the proposed numerical methods based on open source platform are suitable for flow simulations, even for depicting the complicated physics of cavitation.
