Iridium Satellite Collision in Space
You might have seen the recent news reports about the collision between U.S. and Russian communication satellites. The U.S. satellite was one of the Iridium satellites. What wasn’t reported and you probably don’t know is that an object database management system (ODBMS) is an important part of the Iridium system. Even though ODBMSs are a [...]

Atomicity
The typical definition of an atomic task or process is one that cannot be decomposed further. This is vague and subject to interpretation. The Decomposition Matrix on this site uses a specific definition: A task (for business process diagrams) or a process (for data flow diagrams) is atomic if every input relates to every output [...]

Well-Formed Business Process Diagrams
My last posting referenced the criteria for a well-formed business process diagram mentioned in Business Process Driven SOA using BPMN and BPEL by Matjaz B. Juric and Kapil Pant. I am going to expand on their criteria to create a more comprehensive definition of a well-formed business process diagram. To start, here are three criteria from [...]

Recent Business Process Modeling Books
I recently received two new books on business process modeling. Both books looked interesting because they had great titles. As it turns out, one book is great and the other not so good. The not so good book is Business Process Driven SOA using BPMN and BPEL by Matjaz B. Juric and Kapil Pant. There are [...]

If the data in your database is complex or the mapping from the relational model to the Java object model is complex, it is best to use JDO with Java application servers instead of JDBC or SQLJ. This would mean that the mapping can be placed in one location outside of your application or application server as opposed to mapping data in multiple locations. See JDBC data conversion (new window) and SQLJ data conversion (new window). Having to map data in only one location simplifies both development and maintenance.

If you have new data and do not have an existing database that requires data mapping, take a look at EJB accelerators (new window).

For more information on JDO issues related to data mapping, see JDO data conversion (new window)

Also, if you are not familiar with the concept of complex data, see complex data (new window).

JBoss in Action: Configuring the JBoss Application Server
by Javid Jamae, Peter Johnson
Average Customer Review: 5 stars based on 6 reviews.
Customer Review: I bought this book about 6 months ago to prepare for a projected move to the JBoss AS from Websphere. As with most technical books I read as much as I needed for the tasks at hand. My project seems to be cancelled, so I may not go back to this book, but I'd like to leave this review. I believe this is the only book targeted at JBoss ...

Customer Review: A reader wrote that, "this book fails to address concurrency issues". But the books title never commits this. It's about teaching data-structures using Java (correctly). And it exactly does this with great success. Although I read it to refresh my knowledge, I enjoyed a lot as I learn the subject first time. It's CS for beginners, bu...

Customer Review: I was introduced to this book during a Jython class taught by Keven McGrath. He kept referring to the book in the classroom, and bringing up sample pages for examples. I was favorably impressed during the class, and even more so when the book finally arrived. They take a very important subset of Jython code for WebSphere and give con...
