A method of human-computer interaction characterized by a graphical display, a mouse to

the screen and clicking a mouse button.
A license used by the open source BSD OSs and by various software components developed
2
for them. It allows modifications to be distributed under other licenses.
, A broad set of software licenses, or the software that uses them, that permits redistribution and
3 copying under liberal terms. The open source definition is somewhat broader than that of free
software.
The protocol suite developed by the Department of Defense (DoD) in conjunction with the
4 Internet. It was designed as an internetworking protocol suite that could route information
