install Windows XP on my Mac using Boot Camp

2009-10-27T09:38:00.001-07:00

There's been a lot written about Apple's dramatic release of Boot Camp, a free download that lets you repartition your Intel-based Mac's drive and install Windows XP as an alternative operating system, but even the magazine coverage I've seen doesn't give you screen-by-screen details. So let's see what we can do about that!

Your first step is to make sure you have an Intel-based Mac: any G4 or G5 Mac will not install Boot Camp and you won't be able to dual boot into Windows XP. You can still run an emulator like Microsoft Virtual PC, but it's an inferior solution and my own experience with VPC has been that it's glacial and useless for all but the most simplistic of Windows applications. You'll also need to be able to burn a CD during the process: make sure you have a blank, burnable CD disk on hand.

Now, download Boot Camp from the Apple site and double click on the ".dmg" disk image that's dropped onto your desktop. Here's what you'll see:

Your first step, as highlighted in the "Read Before You Install" document, is to print a copy of the Boot Camp Beta Installation & Setup Guide. Trust me, you'll want it!

Double-click on the "BootCampAssistant.pkg" icon and you'll be able to install the Boot Camp assistant:

As with all Mac software installs, this will require you to type in your administrative password. It's probably the same as your default account password:

A few seconds of activity later, you'll have the software successfully copied onto your computer and can quit this first installer.

Now your first challenge: finding the new installation assistant! It turns out that the program is installed on your computer in Applications --> Utilities --> Boot Camp Assistant. Launch it and it's quite possible you'll see the same message I did:

No huge problem. Quit by clicking the "Quit" button, then go to Apple's Support Downloads and check their Available Firmware Updates list to click directly to the firmware update for your own Intel system. For my Mini, I simply go back to the downloads page and scan down for the name of my system.

Once the correct firmware update is installed, you need to reboot, but not in the usual fashion. Instead, press and hold the power button on the Mini itself -- it takes about ten seconds -- until the power indicator light flashes repeatedly to begin the update. Your system will boot and you'll see the Apple icon and a progress bar:

That will advance, it took me about 90 seconds total, and you'll reboot again, ready to go!

Finally, we're ready to actually start working with Boot Camp itself. The first step is to read all of Apple's warnings:

Okay, now let's proceed. First choice: do we want to burn a Macintosh Drivers CD, which contains important device drivers for Windows XP so it can access the various hardware parts of the Mac, or do we already have one. I don't already have one, so I'll choose the default of "Burn a Macintosh Drivers CD now":

I slip in the blank disk and the system tells me it's "ready to burn". Click "Burn" and it'll do everything necessary to create the Windows XP drivers CD. This took a few minutes on my Mini, but it wasn't terribly long.

Next step is much more exciting: it's time to partition the hard disk!

Partitioning is a geeky buzzword for something that will actually make a lot of sense to you, believe it or not. The idea is that if you have a large hard disk, why not configure it to act like two small hard disks? Or three? In this way, smart system administrators can isolate accounts, minimize out-of-disk-space errors and disruptions, and so on. With Apple Boot Camp, we'll want to partition the default disk to allow us to have one "disk" that represents the Windows XP world, and another "disk" that represents Mac OS X.

By default, Boot Camp offers up a pretty tiny partition for Windows, as you can see:

I'd recommend that you make it bigger if you're actually going to use Windows for anything important; Microsoft recommends 10GB as the smallest reasonable and functional partition, for example. If you're just playing, however, 5GB will probably work fine (until your first big game install). I'll make mine 8GB to be somewhere in the middle.

Change the partition sizes by clicking and dragging on the vertical bar between the two areas until you have the size or sizes you desire. With my Mini configuration, it left me with 66GB for Mac OS X, of which 20GB is free, and 8GB for Windows XP.

Once the partitions are set up as you desire, click on "Partition" and keep your fingers crossed (there is a slight chance it'll actually mangle everything on the disk. Not likely, but I would definitely recommend you do one good, clean backup before you start experimenting with Boot Camp).

The disk partition is what we Windows folk call non-destructive or dynamic, which means that you don't have to reformat and then reinstall everything on both "sides" of the partition. That's a very, very good thing. :-)

Once the partitioning is done, you're ready to install Windows itself:

Fortunately, I have a pristine new copy of Microsoft Windows XP Pro with SP2 included for PCs without Windows (who would have thought I'd think of my Mac as a PC without Windows?) and that's what I'll use. My thanks to Microsoft for sending it along...

Insert the WinXP installation DVD, wait for it to be recognized by Mac OS X (it'll show up on your desktop with a cheery name like "VRMFPP_EN"), click on "Start Installation" and kiss Mac OS X goodbye.

After a bit, you'll see the unfamiliar blue screen of a Windows installation:

Press ENTER or Return on the keyboard to continue, agree to the Microsoft warnings and legal restrictions page, and you'll finally get to the "choose partition" list:

Take your time here to ensure that you pick the correct partition! You want to use Partition C: which should match the size you just set too: notice on my screen it's 8407MB, which is about 8GB, as expected. Move the highlight bar down to the correct partition and press Enter to actually install WinXP.

Now you need to pick a partition formatting option. The two main choices are NTFS or FAT. NTFS is more modern and supports very large partitions, but can't interoperate with Mac OS X. FAT, on the other hand, can't support partitions larger than 32GB, but is compatible with the Mac. You'll see why that's important later. For now, select FAT and do a full, not a quick, format:

Now some time will pass while the partition is formatted using the Windows FAT32 format. It took my system about five minutes to fill in the progress bar:

I won't document every single step involved in installing Windows XP as it's pretty straightforward. Just make sure you have your product key available for the verification step of the process. It's in the package within the Microsoft Windows XP disk, and it's really a good idea to use a new version of the OS rather than the same key you've used with other PCs in your office or home. Worst case, you can skip the verification step and have 30 days of "trial period" before you have to deal with finding a valid key to enter for verification purposes.

Once you've finished the full Windows XP install, which can take rather quite a while, your system will reboot and you'll want to eject the WinXP install disk and slip in the Mac drivers CD you burned earlier in the process.

With Windows, this is done by going to My Computer and right-clicking on the optical drive D: then selecting Eject. Slip in the Mac disk and everything should just automatically launch and start up. If not, look for and double click on the file Install Macintosh Drivers for Win XP.exe. Here's what you'll see:

I admit, it's kind of weird to see a Mac installation program running within Windows XP on a Mac computer, but it's a brave new world out there.

Probably, during the installation process, you'll learn that various components of your Intel-based Macintosh haven't passed the Microsoft Windows compatibility test:

Apple assures us that it's safe to continue anyway, so I did. Three times!

Then you get to go through a few waves of "new hardware found", and in all cases you can simply accept all the default settings for each wizard, as those guys in Redmond call 'em, and proceed. Finally, you'll get to the last configuration screen:

Click "reboot now" and if the hardware compatibility Gods are smiling upon you, the Mac will reboot right into Windows and you'll be the proud owner of a Macintosh that can run Windows natively, astonishingly enough.

One last tip: to select which OS you want to run, hold down the OPTION key when you start up the Mac and you'll be able to see both Mac OS X and Windows XP:

Use the arrow keys to move to the choice you desire, then press Enter or RETURN to select it and zoom into that mode.

When you do boot into Mac OS X, you'll notice that there's a new hard disk on your desktop too, called "NO NAME". Click on the name, count to five, and click again, then type "Windows XP" and you'll forevermore realize what it is. And yes, you can navigate through it and find your data files from when you're running Windows, but I'll talk about that in another article!

It's a long, tricky process, but I hope this explains exactly how to install and get running with Apple Boot Camp. Also, don't miss my tutorial on how to install Parallels to run Windows XP within Mac OS X, rather than having to reboot each time you want to switch systems.

Vocaloid Hatsune Miku, the worlds virtual diva

2009-10-13T20:59:00.000-07:00

On August 31, 2007, a cute pop virtual idol named ‘Hatsune Miku’ was created from Crypton Future Media’s voice synthesis software DTM (Desktop Music).

Yamaha produced a speech synthesis system called VOCALOID2, which enables a PC user to create their own song by inputting various options like lyrics. Melody tunes and background music are also used to create your very own song. Also, to give the voice a physical entity from the perspective of its virtual reality concept, a female virtual idol was created in the form of ‘Hatsune Miku’.

The product received the Excellence Award at the 13th Digital Contents of the Year/AMD Awards on March 2008. It also received a ‘Topic Award’ from MM Research Institute Awards 2008 in the month of June. On August, it was awarded the 39th “Nebula Prize” in the Open Category, at the 47th Japan SF Convention. On January 2009, the software won the top award at the BCN Awards 2009, up against nominations from many sound-related software from the same category2 years after its debut, Miku has taken form from publications, CDs and games, including collaborations with racing teams etc, with the activity of Hatsune Miku far exceeding the boundaries that the original music software has set.

With various creators breathing life into this “Virtual Idol” concept, Hatsune Miku has continued to increase in popularity, and at Summer 2009, Hatsune Miku makes its screen debut performing at Animelo Summer Live 2009.

To commemorate Hatsune Miku’s 2nd birthday, a “Hatsune Miku” live event was planned on 31st August 2009 for the very first time, titled “Hatsune Miku 2nd Anniversary”, with the live venue filled, and snippets of the live streamed onto the Internet.

Use iTunes to Crop and Split Files

2009-09-24T03:27:00.000-07:00

If you have an audio file that you would like to crop -- that is, remove some of the audio, like cropping a photo -- you can use iTunes to perform the operation. Cropping is not the most intuitive operation, but it is simple to use. This is handy when you want to remove extraneous sound at the beginning and end of an audio file. Cropping is also useful for isolating a small snippet of sound from a file.

I found this article from http://www.mactipsandtricks.com using Tiger, but I will try using leopard.

Using a similar set of operations, you can also separate a lengthy file into smaller chunks, each of which is a new audio file. This is great when you have extremely long audio files that you would like to split. This may happen, for example, when you record an LP record. It is easier to simply record an entire side of an album and then chop it up in iTunes later, rather than start and stop the recording process for each song on the album.

Click the iTunes icon in the Dock.
Click a playlist name.
In the playlist, click a song from which you would like to copy a segment.
Listen to the song and locate the exact times of the clip segment you would like to copy.

Note: To locate where you would like the clip to start, move the playback head in the display to the desired point. Write down that time. Then move the playback head to determine the end time of the segment.
Press Command-I.
The Info window opens.
Click Options.
Click Start Time and type the beginning time of the segment to copy.
Click Stop Time and type the ending time of the segment to copy.
Click OK..
Press Command-, (comma).

The iTunes Preferences dialog appears.
Click Importing.
Click the format of the new clip; for example, select AIFF Encoder.
Click OK to apply the settings and dismiss the Preferences dialog.
Click Advanced.
Click Convert Selection to AIFF.

iTunes converts the segment that you defined into a new track.

iTunes plays a "ding" sound when the conversion is complete.

TIPS

Did You Know?
When you extract a segment from an audio file in iTunes, iTunes gives the copy the same name as the original. Locate and rename the file as soon as you have finished creating it to ensure you do not delete the wrong file. If you are not sure which file is which, look at the time column of both tracks -- the smaller one is the copy.

Apply It!
After you complete the first conversion, you can continue separating audio segments from the file in a similar fashion. Select the start and end points as before, and perform a new conversion for each segment that you would like to extract. Do not forget to rename the new file each time.

Defeating the Adobe CS4 ‘License Expired’ dialog in OS X.

2009-03-30T01:59:00.000-07:00

“License Expired. Licensing for this product has expired.” - Adobe CS4, 2009

When Adobe CS4 issues this message on your Mac alarm bells might start going off in your head. Not to worry though, simply quit all CS4 apps and delete the following file:

/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD/cache/cache.db

The above path refers to the top level Library immediately inside your Macintosh HD. Now when you restart your CS4 apps you’ll be prompted to license your product with a new serial number.

If you have lost your serial number / product key, or otherwise feel justified in so doing, you may download a CS4 keygen (key generator) which will work on your Intel Mac here.

XAMPP Virtual Hosts on a MAC

2009-03-27T23:49:00.000-07:00

XAMPP is another free AMP stack which includes an editable httpd.conf file making configuring Apache to test SSL connections much more standardized if not straight forward. Instead of dealing with a GUI one deals with the Apache configuration files directly. While it’s nice to be able to customize XAMPs Apache installation getting the configuration right can take some time. If your really uncomfortable meddling with Apache configuration files you should consider just purchasing a licensed version of MAMP which does most of the stuff through a graphical interface. Of course once you go into production you’ll probably going to have to deal with Apache’s httpd.conf file anyway so you might as well front load the pain now and be better prepared when things actually do go into production.

So without further ado I now present the first post on the new acwolf blog: how to configure XAMP virtual hosts on a mac.

Step One, Download and configure XAMPP

First download XAMPP for mac.

Once you have XAMPP running on you mac you’re ready to begin configuring virtual hosts. Using Mac Finder go to Applications > xampp > etc and open the httpd.conf file. Near the bottom of the file look for the following lines:

# Virtual hosts
#Include /Applications/xampp/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

The pound symbol (#) denotes a comment. Since we want to setup virtual hosts go ahead and uncomment the second line by removing the pound symbol like so

# Virtual hosts
Include /Applications/xampp/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

With the above line uncommented Apache will now look to the httpd-vhosts.conf file for instructions on how to configure virtual hosts. Go to Applications > xampp > etc > extra and open httpd-vhosts.conf to begin configuring virtual hosts for XAMP. An imported (and practically undocumented) fist step is to include localhost has the default named virtual host. Do this by adding the following to the httpd-vhosts.conf:

ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot “/Applications/xampp/htdocs”

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes execCGI
AllowOverride None
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From All

With that in place you are now ready to add your other virtual hosts, in my case I’m developing a Zend application called zendapplication. It’s located in a folder called myZendApps in the User > Documents folder.

ServerName zendapplication.dev
ServerAlias wwww.zendapplication.dev
DocumentRoot “/Users/aaronwolf/Documents/myZendApps/zendapplication/public”

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

ErrorLog “logs/zendapplication-error_log”
CustomLog “logs/zendapplication-access_log” common

For all the details and options involved with setting up a virtual host refer to the apache documentation. The two critical configuration options here are ServerName and Document root. ServerName denotes what domain this particular virtual hosts responds to. DocumentRoot tells Apache where the files associated with this particular domain live. Since Zend Framework applications (like Rails applications) only make the public directory accessible to the web I have the document root pointing to the public directory of my Zend application.

So far we,

Created a localhost vertual host pointing to XAMPs default root folder (/Applications/xampp/htdocs).
Created a virtual host for a zend application located in Users > aaronwolf >Documents > myZendApps > zendapplication >public.
Assinded a server name (the local domain name) of our choosing to the new virtual host.

Note: I used the .dev extension for my server name. It’s best not to use .com or .net domain names when configuring local applications, you’ll see why once you…

Configure the hosts file

The next step is to configure your host file. A hosts file works like a DNS server associating domain names with IP address except domain names configured in your local hosts file only effect your local development machine.

In the example presented here we have configured Apache to respond to requests for zendapplication.dev now we want to be able to type zendapplication.dev in to a browser and play with our application. Since zendapplication.dev only exists on our local development machine (not the internet) we’ll need to configure our local host file to send requests for the zendapplication.dev domain to our development computers IP address (127.0.0.1) to be handled by Apache server. Sounds complicated but to get it done is very simple.

Fist you’ll need to open your hosts file. On a mac you can find the hosts file in the /etc directory (you’ll need root permission to edit the file).

Open a concole window and type:

sudo nano /etc/hosts

Add the following line to the bottom of your hosts file (be sure to sperate the IP number and the domain name with a tab).

127.0.0.1 zendapplication.dev

Now when you type zendapplication.dev in to the address bar of you local browser you’ll should see…

You don’t have permission to access /xampp/index.php on this server.

Nice! Turns out there’s one more bit of configuration to be done (at least if you’re storing you applications under the User > Documents directory on a mac like I am). You’ll need to tell the Apache process to run with your user permissions (something that should never be done on a production machine). Back to Application > xamp > etc, open httpd.conf and look for the following block:

#
# If you wish httpd to run as a different user or group, you must run
# httpd as root initially and it will switch.
#
# User/Group: The name (or #number) of the user/group to run httpd as.
# It is usually good practice to create a dedicated user and group for
# running httpd, as with most system services.
#
User nobody
Group admin

Notice by default Apache is set up to run as user “nobody” which lacks permissions to access files in your Documents directory. To fix this simply change nobody to the username you uses when logging into your machine, so in my case…

User lio
Group admin

That should about do it. Type zendapplication.dev into your browser and go to town.

If you notice your application’s indexpage redirects to /xampp/index.php you’ll just clear your browsers chache.

Hopfully that will save someone a few hours…

The Greenest Mac Mini Ever

2009-03-09T06:05:00.000-07:00

Many harmful toxins eliminated.

Apple has worked hard to eliminate many of the toxins that are a common part of computer manufacturing. Apple engineers removed brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) from circuit boards, internal cables, connectors, insulators, adhesives, and more in Mac mini. And they’ve done the same for the aluminum-based MacBook family; the new iMac and Mac Pro; and the Apple LED Cinema Display, iPod touch, iPod classic, iPod nano, and iPhone 3G.

Highly recyclable.

Mac mini uses a combination of highly recyclable aluminum and polycarbonate to create its incredibly compact enclosure. Just 6.5 by 6.5 by 2 inches, Mac mini is a fraction the size of a typical desktop tower, making it one of the most material-efficient deskop computers available.

Reduced packaging.

The new Mac mini retail packaging is 31 percent smaller than the previous generation. In addition, the volume of the shipping box has decreased by 60 percent compared with the first-generation Mac mini. And smaller boxes are better for the planet. Because smaller boxes mean we can fit more boxes in each shipping container — up to twice as many. Which means more products will fit on each boat and plane. Which means fewer boats and planes are used, resulting in fewer CO₂ emissions. It's just one seemingly minor change. But it has a major positive impact on our environment.

More energy efficient.

The energy-efficient hardware components in the new Mac mini work hand in hand with Mac OS X to create a system that can dynamically adjust power consumption to reduce the energy used overall. The new Mac mini uses an advanced power management system leveraged from technology that makes the most of battery life in Apple’s MacBook family. This allows Mac mini to use dramatically less electricity — up to 45 percent less power at idle than its predecessor. And it makes Mac mini the most energy-efficient desktop computer.*

Mac mini meets the stringent low power requirements set by the EPA, giving it ENERGY STAR certification. In addition, Mac mini meets the latest efficiency requirements of ENERGY STAR Version 5.0 Specification for Computers before its July 2009 effective date. ENERGY STAR 5.0 sets significantly higher efficiency limits for power supplies and aggressive limits for the computer’s typical annual power consumption.

Rated EPEAT Gold.

Mac mini has earned the highest rating of EPEAT Gold. The Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool, or EPEAT, evaluates the environmental impact of a product based on how recyclable it is, how much energy it uses, and how it’s designed and manufactured.

A commitment that starts with products.

When it comes to being environmentally friendly, Apple approaches the challenge differently — through products like the new Mac mini. Unlike other companies, Apple controls every aspect of the production of its computers. So Apple designers and engineers can minimize their carbon footprint in ways others can’t. They design them with fewer parts. They build them using recyclable materials. They even create software that makes them more energy efficient. The result is a new standard for green design.

Gmail Voice and Video Chat

2008-11-14T00:28:00.000-08:00

Voice and video in Gmail only works with the newer version of Gmail in supported browsers: FF 2.0+, IE 6.0+, Safari 3.0+, and Google Chrome.

Since sometimes reading "lol" doesn't deliver the same punch as actually hearing your friend laugh at your jokes, you can now use voice and video capabilities in your Gmail chat. From within Gmail, you can have an actual conversation with someone (seriously, out loud), or even chat face to face over video.

Here's what you'll need to get started:

Download the Gmail voice and video chat plug-in, quit all open browser windows, and install the plug-in.
Sign in to Gmail.
In the Chat section of your Gmail, select the contact you want to call. If they have a camera icon next to their name, you can make a voice or video call to them; just click Video & more.

If your friend doesn't have a camera next to their name in your chat list, you can invite them to download the Gmail voice and video chat plug-in from the Video & more menu in a chat window. Even if your friend doesn't have a video camera, you can still make a voice call or a 1-way video call.

1st anniversary emoticon.itonlinestore.net

2008-11-11T18:36:00.000-08:00

Satu tahun sudah berlalu semenjak resmi dirilisnya website ini *(Ada ISO nya lho.......), berawal dari project pembuatan shopping cart dengan metode Drag and Drop, terinspirasi dari Chat bot yang menampilkan emoticon pada setiap chatnya dan Popularitaas code embed. Sehingga lahirlah situs yang aneh ini. Pada awalnya aplikasi web base ini hanya untuk unjuk pamer semata, karena ini adalah benar-benar ide original yang saya ciptakan sendiri, waktu itu hanya 1 halaman onion head saja, tak lupa saya menitipkan link friendster saya dan aktif mengirimkan comment di Friendster. Cukup 3 hari sayapun mendapatkan serbuan comment yang mensuport saya untuk memperbanyak koleksi emoticon di website ini, mereka berasal dari Philipina, singapura, dan malaysia, (*Indonesia nggak ada T_T), mulai dari merampok web lain dan menggambar emoticon sendiri saya lakukan, dengan alibi "Yang penting banyak". Sehingga tak terasa sudah puluhan ribu emoticon yang terupload di hosting.

Untuk hosting, saya menggunakan hosting Windows, ASP.NET berkapasistas 350 GB, dengan Kuota Web Trafik 35000 GB. Dibangung dengan Object Oriented Programing Plus Ajax dengan module Prototipe dari scriptaculous.

Google ennter phone market

2008-09-18T03:19:00.000-07:00

The mobile phone world is set to be shaken up next week when Google enters the market.

A prototype of the Google Android system

The first mobile using the internet giant's Android operating software is expected to be unveiled on Tuesday in New York.

The phone, reportedly known as the Dream, is being manufactured by Taiwanese manufacturer HTC.

It will be available exclusively through T-mobile, with units expected to be in the shops in November.

Rumours suggest that the phone will cost $199 (£110), though that has yet to be confirmed.

It is thought that the phone will have a slide-out keyboard, in-built GPS and will run a range of Google web applications.

Google sees Android as an open source platform for designing mobile devices and says it will encourage innovation by allowing outside software developers to tinker with the system and create better mobile programmes and services.

The phone is being seen as a major challenger to the iPhone.

The first mobile device powered by Google's(GOOG Quote - Cramer on GOOG - Stock Picks) "Android" mobile phone software is expected to sell for $199 and will showcase the Google brand, the Wall Street Journal reports, citing people familiar with the matter.

I hate Friendster Text alert notification

2008-09-18T02:23:00.000-07:00

Everyday when open my email inbox is full by spam from friendster. with subject Text alert message, I try to set from friendster notification setting, and looking for disable text alert message option, but there no way for disable this.

Friendster Text Alerts is Friendster’s second mobile offering and complements Friendster’s fuck mobile site.

Then, what is spam ?

There is numerous definition of spam over the internet, which are somehow identical. Everyone has their own understanding of spam as well.To some people, spam is flooding of the internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force the message on people who do not wish to receive it. However, some think otherwise, because spam may not cause flood to you, just one will do, and not all spam messages contains the same contents; moreover, spam does not only occur in the internet but also cell phones as text messages.Most spam is commercial advertising and promotion, for dubious products, get-rich-quick schemes, or quasi-legal services.Another type of spam tries tricking the search engines into giving a site a higher ranking. Common tactics include hiding keywords as white text.

Different people may have different definitions and tolerance of spam.Sometimes, spam and good intentioned advertising are just within a borderline; that is, by overdoing the latter may simply cross over.Each of us will eventually want to promote some items or events in part of our lives. Be it for good or selfish intention, there should be a limit.If you want to sell some items and you post bulletins in Friendster, MySpace or Facebook, and even email every friend, it is never an issue until you repeatedly do it.You do it once and we all see it, and we know it. If we want to get it, we will. But if we receive the same message over and over again, it certainly turns into a form of spam regardless of our relationship.Spam may not necessary be commercial related.With an extra thought before y.

But, for someone like me, I cant tolerance of spam, spam it's my enemy, and for friendster must disable their notification. but Friendster is the worst social networking community.

AES Encryption
In cryptography, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), also known as Rijndael, is a Block Cipher adopted as an encryption standard by the U.S. federal government. It has been analyzed extensively and is now used worldwide, to replace the Data Encryption Standard (DES). AES was announced by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) as U.S. FIPS PUB 197 (FIPS 197) on November 26, 2001 after a 5-year standardization process. It came effective on May 26, 2002. As of 2006, AES has become one of the most popular algorithms used in symmetric key cryptography.
