Topic: Exploit (computer science)

Ads by Google      Computer - encyclopedia article about Computer. With the exception of quantum computers, the implementation technology of a computer is not as important for classification purposes as the features that the machine implements. A computer is one that computes, where com- (with, together) joins putare (Latin root, to reckon, to think, or section as in to compare pieces), so by definition, computer science (Latin: scientia, knowledge) is the accumulated knowledge through scientific methodology by computation or by the use of the computer. The discipline which studies the theory, design, and application of computers is called computer science Computer science (academically, CS, CSC or compsci) encompasses a variety of topics that relates to computation, like abstract analysis of algorithms, formal grammars, and subjects such as programming languages, program design, software and computer hardware. http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/computer   (5763 words)      Exploit (computer security) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia An exploit is a common term in the computer security community to refer to a piece of software that takes advantage of a bug, glitch or vulnerability, leading to privilege escalation or denial of service on a computer system. Many exploits are designed to provide root-level access to a computer system. Often, when an exploit is published, the vulnerability is fixed and the exploit becomes obsolete for newer versions of the software. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploit_(computer_science)   (374 words)      Department of Computer Science, The University of Tennessee at Knoxville Department of Computer Science, The University of Tennessee at Knoxville On behalf of the faculty, I welcome you to the Department of Computer Science at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville - the flagship research university of the State of Tennessee.

However, even as computer memories become cheaper and multiprocessor machines become larger and faster, our desire for larger and more sophisticated astronomical simulations outstrips them and new algorithms and data structures appear to be required, ones that can be tuned to exploit the computer architecture that is to be used for the simulation. Substantiating the notion of computational intractability is thus the province of theory. http://www.research.att.com/~dsj/nsflist.html   (19014 words)      Heap overflow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Microsoft JPEG GDI+ vulnerability MS04-028 is a recent example of the danger a heap overflow can represent to a computer user. Heap overflows are sometimes used by crackers to exploit badly written software. In most environments, this allows the attacker full control over the program execution. http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap_overflow   (164 words)      Computer Viruses [encyclopedia] The host is another computer program, often a computer operating system, which then infects the applications that are transferred to other computers. In computer science a virus is a piece of program code that, like a biological virus, makes copies of itself and spreads by attaching itself to a host, often damaging the host in the process. A small percentage of viruses are the result of computer code that operates in an unexpected manner, but the majority of viruses are programs deliberately written to interfere with, or damage, other programs or computer systems. http://kosmoi.com/Computer/Security/Virus   (1849 words)      Charles U.

Mathematics and Computer Science are central disciplines to both the liberal arts curriculum and to research endeavors in the natural and social sciences. The combined department at Emory offers educational programs and supports research which attempt to exploit the interrelations of mathematics and computer science and the other sciences, as well as the traditional areas of scholarship within each discipline. The Department's faculty, support staff, and graduate programs are of moderate size -- large enough to support a substantial variety of research interests and degree programs, yet small enough to allow individual advising and instruction. http://www.mathcs.emory.edu   (104 words)      Rice Computer Science:
