The Latest Open Source Available and Latest Development of Ict
1.0 Introduction
Open-source programming has been prominently growing through the past ten years. Programmers share their codes freely in order to be modified and used by others. They are allowed to alter and change the original software as much as they like. This in turn will produce higher quality software with improved features. An operating system is a layer of software which takes care of technical aspects of a computer 's operation. Application software is a computer software that is avaible in source code form for which the source code right normally reserved for copyright holders are provided under a software license. The development of ICT refers to the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in the field of sosioeconomic development, international development and human rights.

2.1 Meaning of Open Source Operating System
Open Source Operating System is the most important program that runs on a computer that is free to use, change, and improve the software, and to redistribute it in modified or unmodified forms. Every general-purpose computer must have an operating system to run other programs. Operating systems perform basic tasks, such as recognizing input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping track of files and directories on the disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and printers.
