Application Architecture (

Have come to feel very uneasy with the usual object orientation. It simply does not deliver on its promises. That´s of course not the fault of object oriented languages like C# or Java or C++. It´s the fault of those who use them in a way that leads their...
In my previous blog post I hopefully was able to demonstrate how low the entry barrier is to asynchronous remote communication. It´s as easy as hosting a service like this 10 using ( var serverSpace = new CcrSpace ().ConfigureAsHost...
If you´ve read my previous posts about why I deem WCF more of a problem than a solution and how I think we should switch to asynchronous only communication in distributed application, you might be wondering, how this could be done in an easy way. Since...
Since I´m mostly concerned with software architecture and my clients are asking again and again when I´m going to write a book about the topic, I finally decided to set out and compile the material to go into the book. And I decided to do it publicly...
You´re fluent in object oriented programming. But now and again you´re wondering what the fuzz about component orientation is? There is supposed to be more to it than just using 3rd party controls in your user interfaces. But, what and how? Component...
My previous posting on Software Transactional Memory (STM) I concluded with the remark, NSTM was not finished. How true! Here is the next release of NSTM with a couple of improvements. You can download it from Google´s project hosting site . Here´s what...
The API for my .NET Software Transactional Memory (NSTM) I´ve described so far is straightforward, I´d say. It´s close to what you´re used to from transactional dabase access and it´s even integrated with System.Transactions : open a transaction, do some...
A while ago Carl Rosenberger - chief architect of db4o - mentioned in a personal conversation the concept of Software Transactional Memory (STM) [1, 8]. I was immediately intrigued by the idea - but the conversation went on. So I sat down later and read...
Recently I needed to set up some simple code to demonstrate WCF (as an alternative to some other means of communication in distributed applications). But when I googled around, I could not find a really, really simple WCF example. Sure, there are lots...
I started a new blog. I want to explore the world of O/R Mapping more closely and will report my findings in my blog O/R Mapping Adventures . It´s a subjective view of the topic as I dig deeper into it. Although I´ll start with some simple...
