  Top Ten Software Architecture Mistakes Posted by Niclas Nilsson on Oct 12, 2007 08:39 PM Community Architecture Topics Enterprise Architecture Eoin Woods , one of the IASA Fellows has published an article ... about what he considers to be the - mistakes that are too often learned the hard way. Brief excerpts of the ten points are below: Scoping Woes. "This is the sort of situation where a simple travel booking system ends up with full expense claim management facilities being built into it, with inevitable repercussions for project costs, timescales and quality...It is really true that no security is needed beyond simple login? Once logged into the system can users really perform any system operation?" Not Casting Your Net Widely . "A related mistake that many of us have made is to focus on just a couple of our system stakeholders – classically the acquirer (who is paying for the system) and the end users get all of the attention." Just Focusing on Functions. "…unless the system exhibits a   [More...] [Less...]

  10 Linux commands you’ve never used 

  http://bashcurescancer.com/10-linux-commands-youve-never-used.html

  It takes years maybe decades to master the commands available to you at the Linux shell prompt. Here are 10 that you will have never heard of or used. They are in no particular order. My favorite is mkfifo. ... pgrep , instead of: # ps -ef | egrep ' root ' | awk '{print $2}' 1 2 3 4 5 20 21 38 39 ... You can do this: # pgrep -u root 1 2 3 4 5 20 21 38 39 ... pstree , list the processes in a tree format. This can be VERY useful when working with WebSphere or other heavy duty applications. # pstree init-+-acpid |-atd |-crond |-cups-config-dae |-cupsd |-dbus-daemon-1 |-dhclient |-events/0-+-aio/0 | |-kacpid | |-kauditd | |-kblockd/0 | |-khelper | |-kmirrord | `-2*[pdflush] |-gpm |-hald |-khubd |-2*[kjournald] |-klogd |-kseriod |-ksoftirqd/0 |-kswapd0 |-login---bash |-5*[mingetty] |-portmap |-rpc.idmapd |-rpc.statd |-2*[sendmail] |-smartd |-sshd---sshd---bash---pstree |-syslogd |-udevd |-vsftpd |-xfs `-xinetd bc is an arbitrary precision calculator language.

  Big WebOS roundup - 10 online operating systems reviewed at franticindustries - web 2.0, social networking, IT technology trends. 

  http://franticindustries.com/2006/12/21/big-webos-roundup-10-online-operating-systems-reviewed/

  While we’re waiting for Google to launch its own Google OS (if the rumours are true, of course), I’ve checked out 10 web operating systems and what they can do. Not many of them feel like finished and ... fully usable products, but there are some true gems among them. Admit it: you didn’t think there were that many WebOSes around, did you? Neither did I. You can find month or two old articles on the web which talk about a WebOS as a recently forged concept, yet to be realized. YouOS was practically the only one that had media coverage, so when I began the research for this article, I hoped to find five usable WebOS applications at best. I was wrong. There are over 10 fully functional WebOS applications out there, and a couple more that are announced or in closed betas. But what is a WebOS (not to be confused with another definition of the term, see here ), or a Webtop , anyway ? Here’s a simple definition: WebOS is a virtual operating system that runs in your web browser . More precisely,   [More...] [Less...]

  PC World - The 10 Biggest Web Annoyances 

  http://www.pcworld.com/printable/article/id,138872/printable.html

  The 10 Biggest Web Annoyances The new, improved Web won't deserve that name until sites make clear what they do with your private data. And online tech support gets a lot better. And... Ryan Naraine In ... its relatively short life, the World Wide Web has already made many of our most mundane, tedious tasks quicker and easier to perform. But there are still a surprising number of activities--from helping us buy concert tickets to protecting our privacy--that, for one reason or another, the Web still can't get right, stirring the ire of even the most patient users. We look at ten of the worst of them. Beyond obvious, nagging problems such as e-mail spam, phishing lures, viruses, and spyware, a great many commonplace online frustrations--some dating all the way back to the earliest days of the Web--remain unfixed. We asked visitors at our online forums to identify what they consider the most dysfunctional aspects of the Web; then . For each difficulty, we identified an "aggravation factor"--   [More...] [Less...]
