The process of “reverse engineering” allows you to understand the functionality and structure of software. By reverse engineering software down to the source code, it is not only possible to understand incorrect messages, but also to analyze competing programs. Reverse engineering can therefore be used in many ways. But how exactly is reverse engineering applied in software development?
In order to provide the best support for the rapid progress in hardware development, system software is also constantly being improved. Along with comfort, performance and security are crucial factors. One good example is the GUID Partition Table (GPT) partition style, which has already replaced the classic master boot record in many system architectures. We’ll show you why.
Partitions help you to manage disk space more efficiently. For example, by splitting up the available disk space into smaller sections, you can easily separate system files from application files and personal data. However, if you want to create a partition, you will have to decide whether to use MBR or GPT. So how does each of these partitioning styles work? And what’s the difference between...
