Show and Tell

This is the first installment in a new series that will present - or rather explore - a project from start to finish. Each month, another part of the project will be highlighted, usually also with focus on a different implementation aspect. The project is for a factory or warehouse type of simulation. The first part presents an overview of the system and a look at some Service Applications.

Spotlight Presentation

"Gang of Four" Patterns 101

"Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software" by Gamma, Helm, Johnson and Vlissides is the seminal text on patterns first published in 1994. To really communicate with serious software designers, we must have a working understanding of the 23 basic patterns presented in this book. This session provides a 50,000 foot view of patterns and should convince you to dig a little deeper if this is a new topic for you.

Bill has designed and developed software on everything from mainframes to PCs in dozens of languages including various assemblers, various COBOLs, various Pascals, various VBs and now C#.
