How to Write Your First iPhone Program
Short Description
The Apple iPhone is becoming a full-fledged development platform. It’s reliance on desktopclass operating system software is allowing it to become the most powerful mobile platform available. Here is how you can get in on the action, even if you have never written a line of code before! First, you need an Apple computer with an Intel processor and Mac OS X Leopard. I’m sure that Apple would be happy to help you with this step. We’re going to jump right into making a program, but first we need to define a few terms.

BMW Financial Services VB6-to-C# Migration Case Study
Short Description
In the past, Visual Basic (VB) upgrades were fairly painless and inexpensive because Microsoft made new versions of VB backward compatible, but things are different this time. An upgrade to .NET brings with it a radical shift in terms of architecture, design, deployment, features, and tools. The upgrade will be even more challenging if you decide to move from the forgiving VB compiler to the rigorous C# compiler. Confronted with declining vendor and community support and major migration challenges, BMW Financial Services in Dublin, Ohio set out to define a strategy that would allow us to adopt C# in an efficient and deliberate manner. Our objectives were to minimize disruption and costs and leverage the momentum of the platform change to move our capabilities forward. This article presents our strategy and some of the experiences we are encountering along the way.

Virtualization is More than Virtual Machine Software
Short Description
It is clear to those who have explored the topic of virtualization technology that it encompasses far more than just virtual machine software, such as VMware ESX Server, XenSource XenEnterprise or Microsoft Virtual Server. Over the last 30 years, virtualization technology has been developed to enhance how individuals access computing solutions, how applications are developed and deployed, how they are processed, where and how they are stored, how systems communicate with one another, and, of course, how an extended system environment can be made both secure and manageable. This broad view is very important if an organization hopes to make optimal use of this technology.

Modeling Web of Trust with Web 2.0
Short Description
“Web of Trust” is one of the recognized goals for Web 2.0. It aims to make it possible for the people to take responsibility for what they publish on the web, including organizations, businesses and individual users. These objectives, among others, drive most of the technologies and protocols recently standardized by the governing bodies. One of the great advantages of Web infrastructure is decentralization of publication. The primary motivation behind Web 2.0 is to assist the people to add contents for Collective Intelligence (CI) while providing mechanisms to link content with people for evaluations and accountability of information. Such structure of contents will interconnect users and contents so that users can use contents to find participants and vice versa. This paper proposes conceptual information storage and linking model, based on decentralized information structure, that links contents and people together. The model uses FOAF, Atom, RDF and RDFS and can be used as a blueprint to develop Web 2.0 applications for any e-domain. However, primary target for this paper is online trust evaluation domain. The proposed model targets to assist the individuals to establish “Web of Trust” in online trust domain.

Native Queries for Persistent Objects A Design White Paper
Short Description
Most persistence architectures for Java and .NET provide interfaces to execute queries written in an architecture-specific query language. These interfaces are string based: queries are defined in strings that are passed to the persistence engine for interpretation. String-based query interfaces have significant negative impact on programmer pro- ductivity. The queries are not accessible to development environment features like compile-time type checking, auto-completion, and refactoring. Programmers must work in two languages: the implementation language and the query language. This paper introduces Native Queries, a concise and type-safe way to express queries directly as Java and C# methods. We describe the design of Native Queries and provide an overview of implementation and optimization issues. The paper also includes a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the current design of Native Queries.

A Programming Languages Course at Web Speed
Short Description
Abstract - The immediate Internet availability of new developments in programming languages allows the core survey of programming languages course to illustrate language concepts with examples that bring students to the forefront of current practice. Ruby and C# each solve problems of current interest in an innovative way that will influence future languages. They are different enough to provide good contrasts and yet their commonalities may show the future direction of productive languages. We describe and provide materials for a survey of programming languages course with examples from Ruby and C#.
