.NET Compact Framework Sample: P/Invoke Library (exe): This sample provides encapsulations of numerous P/Invoke samples. These encapsulations include DllImport prototypes, code required to provide minimum functionality, and sample test methods. All test methods are enumerated using Reflection to create a list on Form. Tests can be individually selected and run from this list. This version is the...; Tags: Encapsulation, Sample, Microsoft .NET Compact Framework, .Net, Application Servers, Middleware, Software Development, Software/Web Development, Enterprise Software, Software; Software downloads 2007-08-30
Simplify Application Management Throughout the Software Lifecycle: Application management is complicated by tangled and poorly understood dependencies between applications (programs, data and configurations) and infrastructure (hardware, operating system and environments). Trigence AE decouples applications from their surroundings by encapsulating them along with their critical dependencies, so one can re-use application configurations, rather than re-creating them. Encapsulation insulates...; Tags: Software, Encapsulation, Application, Application Management, Trigence AE, It Services; White papers 2006-12-01

To ESB or not to ESB, that is the question: The enterprise service bus, or ESB, has been regarded as a quick on-ramp to service-oriented architecture for some time. However, industry experts have been divided as to whether they actually hurt or help SOA in the long run. Will putting ESBs in place to meet certain needs result in incompatible...; Tags: Federation, SOA, Dana, Lorraine, Fremantle, Enterprise Service Bus, Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Middleware, Enterprise Software, Software, Web Services, Joe McKendrick; Blog posts 2007-12-14
Garments glowing in the dark: Knitting specialists at the University of Manchester have developed high-tech battery-powered textile yarns that could be used to make clothing glow in the dark.

Encapsulate user-interface functionality into AJAX components: The encapsulation of user-interface functionality is a critically important aspect of enterprise Ajax development because it not only facilitates code reuse, but it also removes much of the need for addressing the individual quirks of multiple browsers -- a critical step toward rapidly developing high-quality, rich AJAX applications....; Tags: Prentice Hall Inc., AJAX, Internet, Software/Web Development, Web Development, Web 2.0; Book chapters 2007-08-08
Could you say 'Unix' in Ada?: Could you say 'Unix' in Ada?Leaky AbstractionsWhat you are argueing is that Unix is full of leaky abstractions instead of sound design principles, so a largely unsafe systems programming language should be used to write application software.I think you are very wrong.Unix promotes enforced isolation of components (strong process isolation,...; Tags: Programming languages, C/C++, Operating systems, Ada, Unix, C; Discussion threads 2007-06-06
Cancer therapy without side-effects?: Most of you know at least one person who has been affected by cancer and treated by chemotherapy, suffering from side-effects such as hair loss or nausea.
