CS5 introduces new tools such as the Content-Aware Fill, Refine Edge, Mixer Brush,
Bristle Tips and Puppet Warp.]
The community also had a hand in the additions made to
CS5 as 30 new features and improvements were included by request. These include
automatic image straightening, the Rule-of-Thirds cropping tool, color pickup, and
saving a 16-bit image as a JPEG. Another feature includes the Adobe Mini Bridge, which
allows for efficient file browsing and management.
Photoshop CS6 released in May 2012, added new creative design tools and provided a
redesigned interface with a focus on enhanced performance. New features have been
added to the Content-Aware tool such as the Content-Aware Patch and Content-Aware
Move.
Adobe Photoshop CS6 brought a suite of tools for video editing. Color and exposure
adjustments, as well as layers, are among a few things that are featured in this new editor.
Upon completion of editing, the user is presented with a handful of options of exporting
into a few popular formats.
CS6 brings the "straighten" tool to Photoshop, where a user simply draws a line
anywhere on an image, and the canvas will reorient itself so that the line drawn becomes
horizontal, and adjusts the media accordingly. This was created with the intention that
users will draw a line parallel to a plane in the image, and reorient the image to that plane
to more easily achieve certain perspectives.

- 2. Meaning of Open Source Software (OSS) Open source software (OSS) is defined as computer software for which the source code and certain other rights normally reserved for copyright holders are provided under a software license that meets the Open Source Definition or that is in the public domain. This permits users to use, change, and improve the software, and to redistribute it in modified or unmodified forms. Meaning of Hardware Computer hardware is the collection of physical elements that constitutes a computer system. Computer hardware refers to the physical parts or components of a computer such as the monitor, mouse, keyboard, computer data storage, hard drive disk (HDD), system unit (graphic cards, sound cards, memory, motherboard and chips), etc. all of which are physical objects that can be touched. In contrast, software is instructions that can be stored and run by hardware. Meaning of Software Software consists of carefully-organized instructions and code written by programmers in any of various special computer languages. Software is divided commonly into two main categories: 1. System software: controls the basic (and invisible to the user) functions of a computer and comes usually preinstalled with the machine. 2. Application Software : handles multitudes of common and specialized tasks a user wants to perform, such as data processing and word processing. 2.0 The Latest Open Source Operating
- 3. System (OS) 2.1 Meaning of open source OS General term describing the intention and attitude of the community developed software projects. The main aim is to allow free, unrestricted access to the source code of programs in such a way that anyone can alter, add to, and develop the software. Free does not necessarily mean free - without payment - although this is often the case, but free as in free speech. 2.2 Examples of open source OS Kubuntu Linux A user friendly operating system based on KDE, the K Desktop Environment.With a predictable 6 month release cycle and part of the Ubuntu project, Kubuntu is the GNU/Linux distribution for everyone. Improved desktop, updated applications and increased usability features are just a few of the surprises with this latest release. Fedora Linux A Linux-based operating system that showcases the latest in free and open source software. Fedora is always free for anyone to use, modify, and distribute. It is built by people across the globe who work together as a community: the Fedora Project. The Fedora Project is open and anyone is welcomed to join. 3.0 The Latest Open Source Application
- 4. Software 3.1 Meaning of Open Source Application Software Open Source Application Software (also called as end-user programs) includes database programs, word processors, and spreadsheets. It is free to use, change, and improve the software, and to redistribute it in modified or unmodified forms. 3.2 Examples of Open Source Application Software Open Office An office application set (for word processing, spreadsheet manipulation, picture drawing and data base access) compatible with all other major office application sets such as Office and available for Windows and Mac as well as Linux and other UNIX systems. Squirrel Mail An email application (for reading and writing email through a web client program) supporting IMAP and SMTP and available for Windows and Mac as well as Linux and other UNIX systems. 4.0 The Latest Development in ICT

- 7. The idea that technology is moving beyond the personal computer to every day devices with embedded technology and connectivity as computing devices become progressively smaller and more powerful. Also called ubiquitous computing, pervasive computing is the result of computer technology advancing at exponential speeds - a trend toward all man-made and some natural products having hardware and software. Pervasive computing goes beyond the realm of personal computers. It is the idea that almost any device, from clothing to tools to appliances to cars to homes to the human body to your coffee mug, can be imbedded with chips to connect the device to an infinite network of other devices. The goal of pervasive computing, which combines current network technologies with wireless computing, voice recognition, Internet capability and artificial intelligence, is to create an environment where the connectivity of devices is embedded in such a way that the connectivity is unobtrusive and always available. 5.2 Examples Smartphone A smartphone is a mobile phone offering advanced capabilities, often with PC-like functionality. There is no industry standard definition of a smartphone. For some, a smartphone is a phone that runs complete operating system software providing a standardized interface and platform for application developers. Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) A personal digital assistant (PDA) is a handheld computer, also known as a palmtop computer. Newer PDAs also have both color screens and audio capabilities, enabling them to be used as mobile phones, web browsers, or portable media players. Many PDAs can access the Internet via Wi-Fi, or Wireless Wide-Area Networks (WWANs).Many PDAs employ touch screen technology. 6.0 Conclusion
- 8. Open Source can be used by anyone and because it has no copyright claims, so users are free to use, change, and improve the software, and to redistribute it in modified or unmodified forms. Pervasive Computing is to make our lives easier because we can interact with computers. Besides that, we can easily give the computer commands and the computer will grant your wish.
