Windows 7

Microsoft has worked under the code name Windows 7 on the successor of Windows Vista since approximately August 2007. The new operating system is based on Windows Vista and comes with new programme functions and improvements in detail. Steve Ballmer talked with a keynote onto the Gartner Symposium IT 2008 on October 16th, 2008, that Windows 7 one Windows Vista is but with numerous improvements. It shall be release after 2.5 years development time as a new Windows major release. The version number is not increased to 7.0 but to 6.1 for compatibility reasons. Through this Microsoft wants to prevent problems with programmes which checks the version number. Microsoft introduced the first Windows 7 test release with the build 6801 on the Professional Developer Conference in Los Angeles on October 28th, 2008. Basic data of Windows 7:
64 bit and 32 bit version
Kernel is based on "MinWin", introduced by Eric Traut in October 2007
new graphic system
improved language and handwriting recognition, useable over touch screen
new user interface
new program menues, with a recent list of the latests file and program functions used
Windows XP mode (Windows 7 Professional or higher)The first Windows 7 Release Candidate build 7100 appeared on April 21st, 2009. The operating system can be tested for 30 days without product activation. Microsoft refer as minimum requirements a computer with 1 ghz CPU, 1 gbyte main memory, 16 gbyte free storage and a DirectX 9 graphics card with a WDDM 1.0 driver or higher. Microsoft cooperates closely with Intel so that Windows 7 can use Hyper-threading still better. The Release Candidate contains the Windows Media Player 12, Internet Explorer 8 and the Windows Defender 6.1. Optionally the Windows XP Mode (XPM) can be downloaded from the Microsoft web site for testing purpose. This promises users of Windows 7 Professional and higher to start some older productive Windows XP applications directly from the Windows 7 desktop. To this an configured, virtual image of Windows XP is installed with Windows Virtual PC. Requirement for the hardware virtualization is a computer with Intel-VT or AMD-V processor. Otherwise the XPM will not start. For a fast working are 2 gbyte of main memory and additional 15 gbyte of free hard disk storage recommended.

Windows Vista

Microsoft published the new product name Vista for this new Windows Version on an event in the USA/Atlanta on 21-07-2005. This Windows Version was known under the development name Longhorn before. The installation of Vista is based on WIM (Windows Imaging format), a file-based Image Format. It compresses the contained files and can be used for the installation on several platforms from the same Image. The image on the DVD contains a pre-installation of the system directories of Windows in the Windows Imaging (.WIM) file and adapts to the hardware configuration. With the User State Migration Toolkit the user defined settings can be imported of Windows 2000 and Windows XP. An advantage of WIM images is the easy integration of new drivers and updates, the LZX compression provides the smallest file size and XPress compression the fastest compression. The installation DVD of Windows Vista already contains about 16,000 drivers, the Windows update offers further 14,000 drivers for supported hardware. There is no licence key during the Windows Vista installation necessary, in this case it start with a 30 days trial license. After this time period the activation of the operating system is inevitably with the Internet Explorer, after the start-up Windows opens only this window for activation. Windows Vista contains DRM technology for the playback of protected multimedia files. Windows Vista (Windows version 6.0) contains the new user interface Aero. The start menu has a round start button without text now. New characteristics are three-dimensional effects, the transparent representation and freely scalable symbols. To see all visual features a graphiccard with DirectX 9.0 support is required. The known interface of Windows XP can be activated alternatively. The PC should at least contain a processor with 2 ghz, 512 mbyte RAM and at least 10 GByte of free harddisk storage. Developer take advance from the new graphic interface WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) for the component-based development of 2D and 3D applications, WPF was designed under the code name Avalon. This framework supports the use of vector graphic for better scaling of applications on the display screen. For better Security Microsoft has integrated useful functions. The automatic update of the operating system provides the installation of new patches. When required the function UAC (User Account Control) asks the user whether it shall unlock unlimited user rights for the execution of a program. InfoCards makes the automated log-on and register of login informations for web pages possible. Windows Defender extends Windows by an spyware/malware protection, the Windows Firewall monitors connections which are incoming and outgoing. The performance is for a shorter reactivation time of Windows with the active programmes after a cold start of the PC improved by Windows SuperFetch. Windows ReadyBoostprovides an additional working memory on USB flash devices and can be combined with SuperFetch. The USB flash storage has much faster access times than hard disks. Preinstalled Programs by Microsoft were updated. The Internet Explorer 7 contains a Phishing Filter opposite to the previous version and supports Tabbed Browsing. The navigation in the Windows Explorer was revised, the address bar is equipped with single-line option fields displays for faster navigation in the directories on the file system. The search after files is possible with the use of many filters. Outlook Express was renamed in Windows Mayl and got version 7.0 now. The functions of the Windows Media Player 11 and Windows Movie Maker were refined. Microsoft announced the product versions for Windows Vista on 2006-02-26. Altogether there are 6 versions which are different in product functions and price. The same characteristic is the maximum support of 4 gbyte RAM for all 32-bit versions. For Windows Vista 64-bit and Home Basic are already 8 gbyte supported, Home Premium 16-gbyte, for the business variants and Vista Ultimate more than 128 gbyte RAM. The Windows Vista Starter Edition is targeted to technological developing countries at a low price and fewer program functions. Only the Vista Basic graphical interface and 32-bit version is available, the number of simultaneously executable applications is limited to 3.Windows Vista Home Basic for private users contains only the simple user interface and cames without different new effects of the Aero interface. A new function is the content and access control with protection of children and young people for the restricted use of Windows and display of web sites. The next higher version is Windows Vista Home Premium which can also show the new Windows Aero interface. Aero offers a simpler search for files in the audio and video format. Additional functions belongs to the Windows Media Center to convert the computer into a multimedia player. The field of application is enhanced by the Windows Tablet PC technique like hand character recognition, support of digital pins and finger touch recognition. The storage medium DVD can be described over the integrated burning function with data, the authoring software helps at the creation of own films. The Basic version for enterprise use forms the Windows Vista Business edition. The Windows Aero user interface can be activated, Windows Tablet PC technique like hand character recognition is also included. The administration of many documents is improved, file encrypting and the Encrypting File System (EFS) are important security extensions. For mobile use are designed the PC to PC synchronization and other mobile functions. The domain logon and group guidelines is part of the network component. Data security is provided by the image based backup. Windows Vista Enterprise has the same functions as the Business Edition and contains in addition Windows BitLocker for hard disk encrypting and Virtual PC Express for the compatibility to older Windows applications by the creation of a virtual environment. The subsystem for UNIX allows the execute of UNIX applications without porting. Windows Vista Ultimate contains all features of the other versions but is the most expensive Edition. Microsoft published the first Service Pack for Windows Vista in March 2008. It is distributed over the automatic Windows Update one month later. If Vista is not activated the further use is possibly now without restrictions, but message windows remember the missing activation. Major changes are the support of UEFI, DirectX 10.1, the new file system exFAT for flash storage and optimizations of the performance. The use of network drives, handling of large pictures as well as file operations is faster done now. Device drivers were updated and the API of the kernel protection for Windows 64 bit is opened now for security service providers. The installation of Windows updates is accelerated and the number of UAC reports with directories reduced. In July 2008 different analysts like Forrester, King Research and others reported that many big enterprises want not to migrate from Windows XP to Windows Vista but to wait for the successor Windows 7. From 2.300 enterprises work after a survey less then 10% with Vista (Forrester). Possible reasons are problems with the compatibility of existing applications and scarce investments for IT with other priorities. Microsoft published at the 26.05.2009 the second service pack for Windows Vista for the download. The download size is depending of the chosen language and architecture with at least 302 MByte, via automatic update at least with 43 MByte. The Service Pack 1 is required for installation. The installation packages exist separately for 32-bit, 64-bit and IA64 processor architectures. 836 issues became fixed for Windows Vista is and Server 2008. The most important changes include:
improved program compatibility
improved power management
Windows Search 4.0
Support for 64-bit CPU VIA Technologies
Burning Blu-ray media
Improved support for eSATA drives
Bluetooth stereo headphones now possible
RSS feed sidebar improved in performance and response times
Limit of 10 half open, outgoing TCP connections removed

The study skills lesson plans should be so structured that it is dynamic and capable of being altered to suit the student’s growing and changing needs. This helps to make the students more focused in their approach, as they are continually involved in the process of change. After all the students are the ultimate beneficiaries. This however does not mean that the content can be ignored. There should be adequate coverage of any topic so that a certain degree of mastery is indicated. Thanks to the technology available along with networking anyone across the globe is now able to access any online hardware around the globe, you can even play games off your phones through the advances in wireless technology.
Whatever study skills lesson plans are drawn up, remember there is no end to it. All plans have only beginnings, for human beings are unique, and it is this uniqueness, which is conceptually infinite. Whatever plan we draw up will be inadequate, but we do require a basic framework from which to operate.
