From Application
Virtualization to Xen, a
round-up of the
virtualization themes &
topics being discussed in
NYC June 23-24, 2008 by
the world-class speaker
faculty at the 3rd
International
Virtualization Conference
& Expo being held by
SYS-CON Events in The
Roosevelt Hotel, in
midtown Manhattan.
The mouse was the
original idea of Doug
Engelbart who was the
head of the Augmentation
Research Center (ARC) at
Stanford Research
Institute. Engelbart's
philosophy is best
embodied, in my opinion,
in the design of another
device that he invented,
the five-finger keyboard
- with keys like a piano,
used by one hand. The
problem was, Engelbart's
five-finger keyboard and
mouse combination was
very difficult to learn.
JavaFX is a scripting
language that provides
more powerful client
applications in term of
features for the user
interface experience as
well as being
incorporated with server
platform technology such
as RMI, Web Services, and
EJB. Its ability to reuse
all Java libraries opens
an opportunity for JavaFX
to create flexibility and
ease the integration and
reuse of existing Java
applications.
If you use Adobe Flex Web
applications that connect
to Plain Old Java Objects
on the server side,
chances are you use a
popular, robust, and
freely available server
called Apache Tomcat. If
you use Eclipse-based
Flex Builder, you can
smoothly debug both Flex
and Java code without
leaving Eclipse. Flex
Builder debugger does not
need any special
configuration. But we
need to add a couple of
parameters to the startup
routine of Tomcat so
it'll engage the Java
Platform Debugger
Architecture (JPDA),
which will allow other
applications attach to
JVM that runs Tomcat and
debug deployed Java
classes remotely.
In order to describe
itself as an 'open
source' company, need a
company merely be 'a
company that will help
you make the switch to
open source in your
company' - or does it
have to be one that lets
users feely download,
compile, and use the
software in question?
Where is the dividing
line? How open is 'open'?
At Enterprise Open Source
Magazine we contacted a
range of FOSS luminaries
for their take on the
issue.
Object-oriented software
engineering (OOSE)
without design patterns
is like cooking without a
recipe. Patterns guide us
with ingredients and
step-by-step instructions
for assembling the
solution to a recurring
problem. In the same way
we rely on recipes in
cooking, we experience
patterns as repeatable,
proven solutions, and
software engineering
becomes more reliable and
successful.
