Network transparency, in its most general sense, refers to the ability of a protocol to transmit data over the network in a manner which is transparent (invisible) to those using the applications that are using the protocol. In this way, users of a particular application may access remote resources in the same manner in which they would access their own local resources. An example of this is cloud storage, where remote files are presented as being locally accessible, and cloud computing where the resource in question is processing.

In computer networks, location transparency is the use of names to identify network resources, rather than their actual location. For example, files are accessed by a unique file name, but the actual data is stored in physical sectors scattered around a disk in either the local computer or in a network. In a location transparency system, the actual location where the file is stored doesn't matter to the user. A distributed system will need to employ a networked scheme for naming resources.
The main benefit of location transparency is that it no longer matters where the resource is located. Depending...
La transparencia política es una cualidad de la actividad pública que consiste en la apertura del sector publico a la divulgación de información acerca de su gestión. Una de las características de un Estado democrático es la obligación de todos los poderes públicos (la Jefatura del Estado, el Gobierno, el Parlamento, el sistema judicial y las administraciones, empresas y fundaciones públicas) de dar cuenta a la ciudadanía de todos sus actos, especialmente del origen y el destino de los recursos públicos, y así prevenir, detectar y sancionar los casos de incompetencia y de corrupción política.[1…
A Linux distribution (often abbreviated as distro) is an operating system made from a software collection, which is based upon the Linux kernel and, often, a package management system. Linux users usually obtain their operating system by downloading one of the Linux distributions, which are available for a wide variety of systems ranging from embedded devices (for example, OpenWrt) and personal computers (for example, Linux Mint) to powerful supercomputers (for example, Rocks Cluster Distribution).
A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software...
