La recomandarea lui Paullik, vizitator al blogului meu, am facut o intoarcere la 180 de grade si ajung sa va prezint o distributie linux educationala. In trecut am vorbit despre Scientific Linux acesta isi avea bazele in Redhat, in schimb aceasta distributie isi are bazele in Ubuntu si respectiv pe mediul de lucru Gnome.
Conform descrierii de pe site-ul distributiei, Poseidon Linux este:
Poseidon (GNU/)Linux was designed as a friendly and complete desktop, based on open source software and aimed at the international scientific community (students, technicians, professors, researchers). This operating system is based on Ubuntu (previously in Kurumin/Knoppix) and inspired by Quantian Linux. It offers several specific tools in the areas of GIS, 3D Visualization, Mathematics, Statistics, Genetics, Bio-Informatics and several other fields of research. It also has all the software expected in a modern desktop such as a complete office suite – with spell checker, web browsers, e-mail readers, instant messaging, to cite but a few. It is ideal for students, teachers, researchers, but also for any common (home) user.
Cea mai recenta versiune a acestei distributii este Poseidon Linux 3.2, ce cuprinde numeroase aplicatii in urmatoarele domenii:
* GIS and Geostatistics
* Visualization 2D/3D/4D
* Mathematics
* Statistics
* Physics
* Chemistry
* CAD / Engineering
* Computer Graphics
* Image Editing and Vectorial Drawing
* Numeric modelling / Simulation
* Scientific graphs
* Scientific Authoring
* Database
* Programming languages
* Audio/Video
Cu siguranta doriti sa vedeti si cateva capturi cu distributia in timpul functionarii; ele sunt grupate sub forma unui slide disponibil aici. Pentru a descarca distributia, acest link va sta la dispozitie. Spor la download si instalat sa aveti ! :)
PS: de vreme ce toata lumea isi i-a o vacanta a venit si randul meu; astfel incepand de azi si pana vineri activitatea de pe blog va fi stationara :D
