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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

The Design Decomposition Blog is written by Doug Barry.
This example uses the Java Data Objects (JDO) Binding. Notice that all the
code is Java. You will not find a
database sub-language in this example. The part in blue relates to the animation of transparent
persistence (new window). Note that the
same code would used for object-relational
mapping products (new window).
Transparent persistent interfaces work with both object database or
object-relational mapping products.
import javax.jdo.*;
import java.util.Collection;
PersistenceManagerFactory pmf; // assume this variable is set
pmf.setConnectionUserName(" ");
pmf.setConnectionPassword(" ");
pmf.setConnectionURL("database URL");
PersistenceManager pm = pmf.getPersistenceManager();
Transaction txn = pm.currentTransaction();
txn.begin();
Extent people = pm.getExtent(Person.class, false);

Data Structures and Other Objects Using Java (3rd Edition) by Michael Main Average Customer Review: based on 17 reviews. Customer Review: Even after taking a mid-level CS course where this book was the required text, this book still sits on my bookshelf at work for reference. Why? Well, certainly it is not the most comprehensive book of data structures in existence, nor is it written with a scholarly tone. But, that's the point! Michael Main's writing has the air of a...
