There is growing international interest in the use of assistive and ambient technology to support people with a range of impairments, whether developmental, acquired or age- related, in being able to function independently in the modern world.

Tomcat

Because Tomcat is written in Java, some people assume that you have to be a Java guru to use it. That is not so! Although you need to know Java to modify the inter- nals of Tomcat or to write your own servlet programs, you do not need to know any Java to use Tomcat or to write or maintain many JavaServer Pages (JSPs). You can have JSPs that use “JavaBeans” or “JSP Custom Tags”; in both …

TO THE CLOUD

The Internet had been around for a while when on July 5, 1993, the New Yorker magazine featured a cartoon that, in the minds of some, marked its real arrival. “On the Internet,” says the dog at the computer screen to his canine friend, “nobody knows you’re a dog.” I knew it was time to write this book when I woke up one morning, downloaded my digital edition of the October 8, 2012, Ne…

The ThoughtWorks Anthology 2

I love anthologies. When I was a lad, I was a huge fan of science fiction. I was lucky to have access to a rich ecosystem of sci-fi magazines. Every year, each magazine would take its very best stories and anthologize them, presenting the cream of the crop. I whiled away many hours reading those best-of collections. I loved those anthologies because each story had a different author; the chang…

It seems they are simply throwing lots of complex-sounding …

Each chapter discusses one myth, explores why it’s popular, and then uses the history of innovations—recent and ancient—to explain the truth.

The Four Intelligence of The Business Mind

Information overload is the new normal. We have too much to think about and too little time to manage the rush of information coming at us from multiple sources. The nonstop tsunami of structured and unstructured data that slams into our lives throughout our waking hours—and, for some of us, throughout our sleeping hours—can adversely affect our clarity of thought and, thus, our decision-ma…

The Business of Android Apps Development

The mobile application business model is essentially the new get-rich-quick scheme. There are many who put out their app on smartphone platforms, and begin to start receiving profits from users, advertisers, and shops within their applications. There is, of course, a lot of work involved before the developer can simply sit back and watch the money roll in. This was certainly the case for iOS du…

The Art of Agile Development

Agile development is popular. All the cool kids are doing it: Google, Yahoo, Symantec, Microsoft, and the list goes on.* I know of one company that has already changed its name to Agili-something in order to ride the bandwagon.

Test-Driven iOS Development

A common goal of many software projects is to make some profit for someone.The usual way in which this goal is realized is directly, by selling the software via the app store or licensing its use in some other way. Software destined for in-house use by the developer’s business often makes its money indirectly by improving the efficiency of some business process, reducing the amount of time pa…
