  • Automating Data Protection Across the Enterprise

    This article builds on the foundational Regulatory Compliant Cloud Computing (RC3) architecture for application security in the cloud by defining a Data Encryption Infrastructure(DEI) which is not application specific. DEI encompasses technology components and an application architecture that governs the protection of sensitive data within an enterprise.

  • Designing and Implementing Hypermedia APIs

    This article (the first in a four-part series) talks briefly about the concept of using hypermedia as an application programming interface (API) and how to design a hypermedia type to use as a basis for your API. In upcoming weekly installments of the series, details of implementing hypermedia servers and clients will be reviewed along with techniques for evolving the API safely over time.

  • Interview and Book Review: A practical approach to large-scale Agile development

    A Practical Approach to Large-Scale Agile Development tells the story about applying agile and lean principles in a large scale software development program for the HP laserjet futuresmart firmware. An interview with with two of the authors, Gary Gruver and Mike Young, about agile principles, managing change, collaboration between distributed teams, and the benefits of using agile.

  • Sharing Code in WCF without Code Generation

    One of the principal problems with normal WCF development is code reuse. No matter how well you design your classes on the server, once the proxy generator has touched them you get nothing but simple DTOs. This article shows how to bypass the proxy generator so that your client and server can share code.

  • Getting Started with Shuttle Service Bus

    Shuttle Service Bus is a .NET open source framework providing distribution support for command and event messaging useful in building an EDA system. This article introduces Shuttle and a case study of its use in production.

  • Designing a World at Your Fingertips: A Look at Mobile User Interfaces

    User interface (UI) is a critical component of any successful mobile application. In this article, Forrest Shull presents his interview discussion with Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) researchers about mobile UI principles and other areas of ongoing research including multiple devices, privacy and security, and voice. He also talks about the challenges when developing mobile user interfaces.

  • Java EE Mobile Application Development using the AeroGear Framework

    AeroGear is a mobile development framework from JBoss that supports mobile web, hybrid, native apps on iOS & Android, and server side resources with extensions into existing projects like RESTEasy. Jay Balunas and Marius Bogoevici spoke at JavaOne 2012 Conference about AeroGear framework. InfoQ caught up with them and Anil Saldhana to speak about mobile development using AeroGear.

  • Designing Next-Generation Massively Multithreaded Architectures for Irregular Applications

    In this article, authors discuss Cray XMT, a massively multithreaded architecture framework that addresses the needs of irregular data-intensive applications in emerging fields like bioinformatics, semantic databases, natural language processing, and social network analysis. They also compare this approach with other multithreaded architectures such as GPUs and UltraSPARC processors.

  • Interview With Demis Bellot, Project Lead of ServiceStack - Part 2

    ServiceStack is an Opensource .NET and Mono REST Web Services framework. InfoQ had the opportunity to get insights from Demis Bellot about the project. In Part 2 of this two-part interview, we learn more about ServiceStack features and the role of Microsoft and Mono in open source .NET.

  • Interview With Demis Bellot, Project Lead of ServiceStack - Part 1

    ServiceStack is an Opensource .NET and Mono REST Web Services framework. InfoQ had the opportunity to get insights from Demis Bellot about the project. In Part 1 of this two-part interview, we discuss mainly about the motivation behind ServiceStack and various design choices made in the project.

  • How to Succeed with an OpenStack or CloudStack Project

    Dan Bode, Puppet Labs, and Floyd Strimling, Zenoss, provide advice for those interested in starting an open source cloud project built on top of OpenStack or CloudStack platform.

  • A Proposal to Enhance the UML Notation

    Raul Rugiero proposes an enhancement to the UML notation whereby requirements and test cases, in particular acceptance tests, are strictly related. Agile methodologies highlight this aspect basing themselves on test driven approaches. The notation of UML use cases may be enhanced in order to allow enhanced UML tools to properly handle links between use cases and tests.
