Be careful when copying information from this article! The paper is already published and you will be charged with plagiarism! As we read before in the Introduction, collaboration is a recursive and iterative process with the purpose of solving a problem or a situation in a systematic way (Dictionary 2007). It implies two or more individuals or organizations involvement in a mutually interested common goal. This process is creative in nature and its results are dependent on knowledge sharing, on learning from each team member and on building consensus towards a commonly recognized solution. Because humans are essentially different, the tendency […]

Radu Poenaru's Master thesis - The natural gesture of touching employed by the new devices’ interface led to it becoming ubiquitous. The interface dissolved itself in the device that we are using, creating a more natural interaction.
While creating the Windows Phone7 version of my Master Thesis project, I needed to show some custom dialogs. Because I wanted a clean, nice look which would be also familiar, I choose the layout of the Windows MessageBox.
Just joined Microsoft Students Partners for few days, and me and my colleagues in Team West were invited to a Code Camp for learning how to develop for Windows 7 Phone with XNA. The camp was established in castle, in Freusburg. We traveled from Köln after my RIA Business Applications presentation in the Springboard conference.
I was in charge with our brand new solution for an online Healthcare project – Alensa Online. The CEO trusted me the all the decisions in all software and hardware technology that were imposed by the architectural changes that we thought of. I’ve been asked to overview all aspects regarding our online presence: hosting company, maintenance and updating Windows 2003 Server including setup and configuration of IIS Web server and SQL 2005 Server.
The User Experience that a library provides must be at least equal with is quality and speed. And frankly, CSVtoLINQ rocks on latest two, but lacks a little on the User Experience(in our case Developer Experience) by not having some events of starting, progress and ending of the parsing.
The most challenging query for me by now is the grouping of data based on two columns from a table. Let’s assume that we have a table that contains some users that share books. The question is: how do we count how many books that the users share to another one, grouped on user pairs?
Assume that you have an plain text, old Comma Separated Values file filled with your precious export from a legacy system. How can you process it easily now? The first answer that is worth considering is parse it to LINQ, the language-integrated query, which is a collection of extensions to the .NET Framework that encompass language-integrated query, set, and transform operations.
I am very close to finish another project in Fraunhofer FIT: IdeaPitch on the Microsoft Surface. This concept is very simple, you are able to “store” ideas in a repository, created using PHP and MySQL, and later on manipulate it on Microsoft Surface, along with the rest of the contributors. Other clients, iPhone and Air, were developed and are able to connect to the repository and register the ideas there. They are acting like individual clients, the iPhone can’t be used comfortable by more than one person. Not to mention that this is kind of personal device by its nature. The Surface […]
For sure at some point in your Microsoft Surface application you'll need to do programatically some screenshots. This article explains how to do it in two simple steps.
Just a reminder for posterity : posting with .Net its so easy! Check out the Cocoa touch framework to realize the difference!
Scott Hanselman had a presentation at Mix 09 conference – File | New Company: Creating NerdDinner.com with Microsoft ASP.NET MVC. This was in its unique style – fun, rich in content, tricks, advices but most of all was fun. This year he managed to create a new type of presentation – without the actual presentation! No more constrained to some slides, just him, Visual Studio and the audience. Yes, the audience – who seemed to absorb any words spoken there, helping Scott with few advices in some key points.
