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. http://jdj.sys-con.com/read/478360.htmhttp://jdj.sys-con.com/read/478360.htm Tue, 25 Dec 2007 13:30:00 GMT 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. http://jdj.sys-con.com/read/458994.htmhttp://jdj.sys-con.com/read/458994.htm Wed, 14 Nov 2007 08:15:00 GMT 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. http://jdj.sys-con.com/read/342346.htmhttp://jdj.sys-con.com/read/342346.htm Thu, 01 Mar 2007 05:00:00 GMT 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. http://jdj.sys-con.com/read/299958.htmhttp://jdj.sys-con.com/read/299958.htm Tue, 28 Nov 2006 09:00:00 GMT 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.
