please read:
when i walked into IBM software development centre, bangalore, i was fascinated to find that it truly presented a multicultural environment. A software developer from CHINA working under a project leader from KOREA working with a software engineer from INDIA and a hardware architect from the U.S.A. and the communication expert from GERMANY were all working together to solve the banking problem in AUSTRALIA..

To Angel,
Thanks Question: What's the major difference between 32-bit and 64-bit windows? I never knew the difference, and have there questions:
1. Is the main advantage of 64-bit that it's faster than 32-bit?
2. Does the hardware like processor and mainboard have to be 64-bit too to run 64-bit operating system?
3. Are some programs that can run in 32-bit system can't run in 64-bit system? I mean does a software developer have to make different version for each system?
Thank you very much for any tutorial, as I'm quite confused :) Question: Now would this have assisted Collins project ? .NADC-82183-50

1_. Purposes of a SEE
"Software Engineering" is concerned with developing software sys-
tems that satisfy the requirements of the user over the whole life of
the system; a SEE assists the accomplishment of software engineering
through sets of computer facilities, integrated software tools, and
uniform engineering procedures. The term "weapon system software"
inherently implies a concern with software for embedded computer sys-
tems and support over the entire life-cycle. Among the aims of a SEE
are to increase productivity, support development of reproducible
software and promote standardization of software and software develop-
ment methods. The industrialization of computer hardware is already
successful in these areas; the SEE will enable a similar industriali-
zation of computer software.
Productivity
To increase productivity, the SEE must let users work in the most
productive mental surroundings, i.e., at a high level of abstraction,
dealing with the problem they are to solve, rather than the details of
the host computer system. DoD recognized this when they emphasized
High Order Languages (HOL's) and Ada1 in particular. The SEE must
automate what can be automated to free users of details irrelevant to
their work (how to access the compiler, organization of file struc-
tures, etc.), and guide users in systematic software development.
This guidance will both disencumber users and restrict what they
can do. Structured programming provides a taste of this freedom with
restriction. It makes one's thinking about decisions easier by pro-
viding a standard set of control structures. It also restricts use of
a large class of possible control statements because they may
adversely affect program quality. Thus, productivity is enhanced by
both the provisions and the restrictions of structured programming.
The SEE's guidance will have similar benefits.
Software sharing is also essential to increased productivity.
Repeated re-invention of software is a costly waste of resources.
Software developers should be able to make general, flexible

______________________________________… Question: What are the hardware and Software resources required for Optical Character recognition software developers? Question: What hardware would you use for a MAME machine? I have a lot of old hardware at my house. I have considered making another MAME machine with them. I was curious. I have gotten all of the hardware from others peoples trash. We have a recycling facility near my house and they get hardware like crazy. I can pick and choose and it is free. If you had the choice of any outdated hardware, which would you choose to make a MAME machine.
For those who do not know:
A MAME machine is a home-made arcade style game machine using software that is typically what is referred to as abandon-ware. This is software that the copyrights have not been registered again. Sometimes the rights have been kept up, but the developer or owner will not prosecute for use and development, but will prosecute if you mass produce and try to make money on it. Question: What do I need to know in order to start legal proceedings against a large games developer? (Codemasters).? Ok folks, I have had it up to here with Codemasters. What do I need to know in order to start legal proceedings against them? I downloaded a patch, and, unknown to me, (and millions of others I highly suspect),. the dodgy b****r*s had SecuROM sneakily hidden away in the patch, (patch 1.3 for Race Driver Grid), yet no mention of the said software was mentioned, only a wording of, "anti piracy software", and now my computer won't recognise my optical drive. It's been like this now for almost 2 months. The optical drive more or less instantly was no longer being recognised by my PC after the 1.3 patch was installed.
I can't re-install my operating system, and I'm worried it, (SecuROM), will automatically infect any other optical drive I install. I wish to use them for damage caused to my pc and stress not knowing what this crap is doing. I have tried several times unsuccessfully to remove it; I tried a few methods, but it's still there I'm sure. No matter what I do, I just cannot get my PC to recognise my optical drive for any sustained length of time, it shows up for an hour maybe maximum, but at random within that time-span it vanishes off the Device Manager list of currently installed hardware.
How do I start legal proceedings against these unscrupulous, lying, cheating, and interfering ***holes? Am I obliged to pay for all legal costs? How? How do I do it please folks. For the record, I live in London UK, and am currently unemployed. :(

97. Which position h Question: Were there integration problems with Collins software ? Were there timing problems ? Were interface messages? misunderstood ? Was there mechanical interference ?
Question: Was a (rogue ?) outfit running Collins software effort like some sort of Ikea project ? Question: Future Careers: Are software engineers the same as developers? Would computer engineering be a better route? I've decided I want to go back to school within the next year or so to become a software engineer. Now, the problem here is that everyone has a different view of what a software engineer is and how they relate to a software developer. Does the title software engineer earn one more money than calling oneself a developer or are they one in the same?
I want the title and status of computer engineer, but my real interest lies in software and programming rather than hardware. Perhaps I should get a degree in computer engineering, but look for a job focusing on software. But everything I would learn about hardware would then be useless resulting in an unnecessary workload.
Would a computer engineer with a general understanding of all hardware and software earn more than someone who specializes only in software? What is the quality of life for these professionals (time for travel/leisure/stress)? Any advice or recommended books for a novice with interests in this field? Thanks.
Question: How do I become an ADC Member with Apple Developer? I've been registered as an Apple developer for a while now and have been trying to figure out how to become an ADC Select member. I want to get the full benefits such as Pre-release software, Hardware discounts, software seeding, etc. If they replaced this program with another and/ or still offer all the benefits then please tell. Thanks a bunch!
Question: What are the different types of computer careers (in layman's terms)? I have found some lists but sometimes the different titles have the same descriptions, it's a bit confusing.
Programmer, software developer, software engineer etc etc
Also what job would allow me to continuously learn how to fix and upgrade software and hardware, install and configure OS's, and learn a bit of programming and web development? I was told I.T. technician by a friend.
Thanks, just a small description or a link would do, but if you'd like to go into detail then great.
Question: Is Steve Ballmer a good CEO? Since Bill Gates stepped down from his position as CEO of Microsoft last year and became the chairman, I have seen nothing but good things coming from the company. Windows 7, Windows Mobile 7, Project Natal (for the Xbox 360), the Zune HD, etc. (I don't want to hear any crap from fanboys. You know these are good things no matter how close-minded and biased you may be.)
My question is: is Steve Ballmer to thank for all this? I mean, clearly there's thousands of programmers, hardware developers, software developers, and so on that make the company what it is. But seeing as how Steve Ballmer now overseas it all, do we have him to thank? Is it a coincidence that as soon as Bill Gates steps down, Microsoft starts to shine bright again? Or is it just bad timing for Gates?
Question: Please recommend card access website in Malaysia.? Kindly recommend the best RFID based card access control system - hardware and software developer in Malaysia.

Question: Who hates Microsoft? Are they a monopoly? Microsoft develops new OS and dumps them on us while still full of bugs and when our old OS are doing fine. Then they stop supporting and selling the old OS so we are forced to upgrade. Software developers are then forced to find patches to get their programs to work. Everytime I have to change OS I either lose compatibility with some of my hardware or software like games. Games that I loved I can no longer play because they are not compatible with newer OS no matter what microsoft claims about backward compatibility.
Question: What should i do in college? Hi im in year 11 about to choose my A levels. I wana becum a software developer or a hardware engineer but im really confused cuz i dnt know what A levels to choose. Im thinking of choosing maths,computing,physics and is double award in IT better or computing
Question: what's your opinion on free software? Do you think that Software should be shared with everybody or not?

Do you think if Software would have been more affordable you, you wouldn't mind paying for it. We've seen some of the benefits of collaborating free software developers with some of the Google success on mobile phones. Is that still making the market evolve and improve on having to deal with the competition. Why are free software developers asking for donations, aren't they not already compensated for that already by Hardware companies that uses there software like phone makers eg: Samsung. If games would be half price would you consider buying them on premier day instead of waiting for a year for a price-drop? That's enough food for thought for now, thank you for paying attention!
Question: What do you think linux OS need to do, to start competing with windows and mac outside the low-end market? I personally think that the linux OSes, need to develop their WINE more.
Contact hardware manufactures and software developers to ask them to make a Linux version or to have it open source (hardware manufacturers only)
Make it that the main Linux OS, have a universal installing program. Right now its .rpm for fedora and .deb for ubuntu and Debian.
Promoting Linux operating systems through multimedia platforms (IE: tv, radio, ads)
Question: Need suggestion on Server Hardware Configuration? Hello,
I've been developing a large DOT NET Web Application for GPS Tracking device. My Client had proposed me a additional project of maintaining that live web server. This server will be in charge of hosting the only dotnet web application. This machine will run Linux (not yet decided on the distro). But the client demands on Cluster to be configured.
To give an idea of what the system needs to be capable of: the customers will be accessing this server to view where their vehicles are moving and to fetch various reports. And this must run 24X7X365.
What would you suggest in terms of hardware? However, I'm more of a software developer than a network engineer, so I would welcome suggestions.
Thank You.
sorry.. its not going to be linux server. Its gonna be Windows Server 2003. So, plz guide on Hardware configuration. Also should I buy some license for running Dot net application on the server.
Question: How can I seek a permanent position at a company I am temporarily employed by? I got a job this week working for a web developer/e-commerce business. They needed a "college student" to finish a "quick IT/Networking" project. Basically, their IT guy quit, and left the place a mess.
I have already completed wiring the network throughout the building, and everyone is up and running. They have asked me to organize some of the hardware and software, as it was previously a mess.
Currently, it seems, I am employed project to project, I would like to stay on with this company but I am primarily a web-designer, does anyone know of any techniques, or have any advice on how I make the transition from, the guy sorting through boxes in the corner to a new designer?
I am sure I am slightly less qualified than their other designers (not totally familiar with Flash, etc), but are there any techniques I can use to sell the attributes I do have?
Question: I'm a web developer/designer. What should I put on my personal/professional website? I've been developing websites for years, mostly in the corporate environment. For my own public web site that I'll use to showcase my work, skills, etc., what things should I put on there? Having my portfolio and skills is obvious. I was also thinking about putting all the awards and personal kudos from co-workers on there as well (I used their initials in case. Is that a good idea, or does it look pompous? I also listed my "toolbox", including software, hardware, and I added all the books that I own and refer to as well. Not sure if that's too much. What's your thoughts?
Question: After B.Sc. Graduation will MC-SD or MC-SE certification is use-full for job in software industry? I have completed my BSc (Electronics) graduation in 1993 and still working in Computer Hardware filed. Now I wan to join the software development field.I have soft hand over C,C++,Vb6. Is it possible to me to be a part of software developers.
Question: How to establish an Information Technology Institute / Firm? I am software developer aquiring masters degree in IT and 2 years of industry experience.
I want to start my own business reletaing IT.
as per the scope initially i want to start an institute providing all courses for IT like Basics to Programming, Database and many more.
Then i want to move towards conrtracts from other companies for Hardware & networking and finally after looking at the scope moving towards actual S/W developement which would be the typical IT firm.
Question: I'm going to go back to college for computer science and...? I'm not sure what major to take. Computer Science, or software engineering. I do not know if I want to be just a software developer. I am interested in so many different aspects of a computer. Technical support, hardware design, web design, game/software design, coding, networking, configuring, and pretty much any portion of computer even art stuff like graphic design. Any suggestions?
https://www.cs.drexel.edu/undergraduate
degrees designed for software engineering are pretty new...could I go computer science and still get a job as a software engineer?
Question: Can I get into trouble for attemtping a system restore? i'm working in a software corporation as a software developer. to solve some software problems I attempted a system restore, which didnt happen successfully, resulting in some major applications such as Internet failing.(error messages of AvMan.dll not being able to be loaded etc). Can I get into trouble for trying to manage the computer hardware, settings, etc since this is not in my domain?
hardware and networking people answer please.
thanks
Question: What are all costs of employment? I am trying to calculate average expenses that employer has to take care of when hiring a person (more specifically - software developer). So it is: basic salary, equity - explicit expenses. What about other? I have very vague idea about specific items and values (like how much to pay for his/her portion of office space, med insurance, hardware/furniture, what else and how much).
I would very appreciate if someone would direct me to some good source of this information or give me an idea of this expenses breakdown.
Thanks!
Question: I'm a web developer, what hardware specifications are most important on a new PC for me? I'm a web developer and fairly knowledgeable about computer hardware already, but I'm a little uncertain about which specs on a new PC I should really prioritize over the others, and how much power I really need.
Primarily I use the following programs:
Microsoft Office 2007
Flash, Photoshop, Fireworks, Illustrator and Acrobat from Creative Suite 3
NuSphere PHPed 5.5
Other than that I don't really use any other programs, at least not any that are critical to my business. So my question is, between the following factors when buying a new computer:
Processor speed
Hard drive speed (size doesn't matter)
Graphics card memory
RAM
What is the lower / upper limits of what is appropriate for my situation, looking to the future and assuming I'll continue to upgrade my software as the years go on. Furthermore, which of these factors is the most important in allowing me to work efficiently?
Question: How much RAM should I have for Vista? I have vista home premium with 2GB of RAM on a 64bit processor. How much should I have for the computer to be considered 'good'
I'm a software/videogame developer, and even though my games usually dont require really good hardware, they still go pretty slow at times, especially when I try to render shadows in IrrLicht!
Question: Mac OS X hard drive scrubber? I am going to start a web business and hire some developers eventually, but I am planning ahead and trying to figure out all the software/hardware they'll need. One thing that I have noticed is its extremely important to secure the deletion of files - especially since they will be using laptops (which can be stolen).
I have used hard drive scrubbers before to prepare to sell a PC on ebay, but our company will be Mac based. What are the best and most trusted for Macs?
Any additional information on business security are appreciated too.
Question: Would there have been a formal validation plan for Collins ? (Surely there was ?) Was it ever used? It's a bit rich telling the supplier his system doesn't work, if the formal validation plan was never followed.
< Question: I'm a 3rd-year student pursuing a BA in Business w/an HR "concentration." Where should I look for internships? Most firms are looking for people enrolled in M.A. programs. I'd like to be a staff trainer/developer, particularly in the design/instruction of software/hardware for . . . well, any industry at this point. As an intern, it's unlikely any company will let me "teach" employees who are both older and/or more educated than I am.
I'm reasonably patient with both young and old, good at explaining things, especially where the arts meet science. I consider myself artistic, but also very technical. I enjoy fixed and stable conditions: for example, I like to sketch/draw, but only on graph paper. I create and give good presentations and enjoy working "behind the scenes" but can be "in the spotlight" if I need to be.
Is there are particular "position" I should apply for? What kinds of tasks should I market myself as capable of doing in order for a company to be interested? I don't mind simply pushing paper if it's at a reputable firm, but I'd prefer a meaningful/useful internship.
Thank you!
Question: How do I become a mobile phone developer? Mainly software like apps and stuff and the general interface of the phone rather than the hardware stuff.
I have no clue how to get into it apart from learning some languages such as for developing iPhone applications.
I'm still in university studying Computer Science and I don't know whether places like Nokia have summer internships and what not.
Any help would be much appreciatedn (I'm from the UK)
Question: Do you believe in what the iphone really is used for? That the iphone is a trojan horse for government surveillance.
this is what they saw on the internet "iPhone contains a backdoor spyware module that allows hackers or the government to conduct secret surveillance of the user, part of an established trend of corporations and the state working hand in hand to eavesdrop on citizens via widely-used software and hardware products.
Earlier this week, a technology group in Russia released the results of their attempts to reverse engineer the iPhone, concluding that the product has "A built-in function which sends all data from an iPhone to a specified web-server. Contacts from a phonebook, SMS, recent calls, history of Safari browser - all your personal information can be stolen."
The module could act as a backdoor for trojan developers or AT & T, said the report, adding that "government structures" would have access to the information.
some thing like that so do you believe that the iphone really is a government surveillance .
all that I can say is who cares it's fu***** awesome bring on da iphone to the uk.
yeah
Question: Differences between these processors? - 2.5 GHz AMD Turion II Dual-Core Mobile M620 processor
-2.13 GHz Intel Core i3-330M dual-core processor
I wanna know the differences between these two processors. Exactly, for what kind of use do you recommend me do they work better, I mean, for gaming, software developing, web designing, etc... I wanna buy a laptop, and I don't know exactly which one buy. In this link ---> http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-Satellite-A505-S6004-TruBrite-16-0-Inch/dp/B00313JXKG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1271710513&sr=8-1 You can check those laptops with they hardware specification. Also I wanna know the performance of the Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD, or what does It can do. I'm a software developer, but also I wanna play some games... So, thank you for responding!
Mmmm I see, but what do you think is the best game that the Intel's Graphics Media Accelerator HD can run? I've been looking at some sites, and I found that it has shader model 4.0, but I couldn't find specific information of performance of this Graphics Media Accelerator...
Question: How do you keep records of flat nonsense that has occurred in your project or organization, so the same? mistake won't be made again ? How do you avoid treading on people
s toes, "rubbing them up the wrong way" ?
Most big projects will have examples of flat nonsense that has already occurred on the projects.
Example of flat nonsense:
Some sort of car is designed to be able to do say 70 mph.
There are problems causing a caveat to be issued that the engine control software only allow say 45 mph.
Software or hardware is put in place to deny speed requests for over 45 mph.
Someone writes a change proposal that the whole system be upgraded
so as to meet the original intent of 70 mph.
The way this change proposal is handled is all wrong. A system developer or maintainer simply removes the software or hardware that was disallowing speeds over 45 mph. The system has NOT been upgraded and the reasons for the original caveat (faulty roads, unskilled drivers, faulty engine, fault suspension, etc, whatever the reason was) most probably still apply.
Unless an organization can keep records of previous attempts at problem solution, including examples of flat nonsense, its problems won't be fixed.
The above example would be hidden, and remain in the system.

Question: I like to develop a browser under GNU. Could you clear my doubts? please see details. Thanks.? I need your advice and links to articles/groups.
> Which is better, bulding from base or redevelop existing one?
> If I re-develop or redesign an existing browser (like Kameleon, Firefox, Mozilla), can I release it as a new one with a new name? New name is not for commercial, but for new branding.
> If re-developement is better, which is browser's coding is best to work on?
> What are the needs (programming languages, software, hardware and type of internet connection) to work, develop & debug?
> Can a single man make a complete browser? is it possible? If no, how much and what kind of developers do I need to hang-out?
Please explain me. Thanks in advance.
Question: Hybrid Drives are VISTA ONLY. Your thoughts? Isn't it wierd that Hybrid Drives ONLY run on Vista and not any other OS like Linux? Something's obviously up.
MY GUESS:
The point of the Microsoft-Samsung partenership was to make the drives ONLY compatible with Vista - aka Shi'sta. This was done by Microsoft getting the patents for the ReadyDrive software, it's necessary for the drive to work, and the Hybrid Drive hardware. To make Samsung agree they offered a bribe per drive sold and didn't ask for royalties.
If software developers want to use ReadyDrive like software in their OS - they can't. This is because Microsoft and only Microsoft can licence ReadyDrive. So would they licence it to a rival developer with a rival OS? NO WAY!
If a hard disk maker where to make a Hybrid Drive device they would licence the hardware patent from Microsoft - like Seagate did. Microsoft won't give them the licence if they won't use ReadyDrive - which can only run on Vista because of Micro$oft's patent.
Thus HHDD is now OS locked.

/does-bathtub-curve-apply-to-modern-software
"Q/Does bathtub curve apply to modern software?
Of course software doesn't wear out, but few decades ago it was generally believed, that late in application's life-cycle code maintenance introduces more bugs, then it fixes.
But does the bathtub curve apply to the modern software developed with modern software engineering methods? "
"A1/Short answer is "yes". Long answer is that the bathtub distribution isn't a very good model, because of the lack of continuity in the way failures work. Say for example that an input value of 42 causes a divide-by-zero error; then the distribution of those failures will be exactly the distribution of 42 values in the input. It's not like hardware, as you say: software doesn't fail over time, it fails when it's wrong.
Now, it may be that you're misusing the words here: you my mean a defect rather than a failure. A failure is one occurrence of incorrect behavior; a defect is a flaw in the implementation, a "bug".
The appearance of defects in software tends to have a bathtub-like distribution, but it really isn't anywhere near as clean as your picture: bugs tend to be observed early and taper off, then spike on patches and new releases, with a general upward trend starting farther into the life of the software. Even that takes careful definition, though, as you really are talking about defects observed per unit time.
Now, having said that, modern SE practices tend to change the actual rates but not the distribution of observed defects over time. "Modern" here is worth a little definition too: the Space Shuttle HAL software have very low defect rates, using SE techniques that were "modern" 20 years ago: strong specification, structured programming, rigorous review and OCD version control and testing. Extreme Programming tends to have low "defect" rates, but many of the things more traditional methods would call "defects" XP calls "user input" — since there's no finite and rigorous definition of what it should do, a "defect" is just another story.
There have been decent studies to show that XP/TDD do result in low defect rates, but I'd be very surprised if the defects/unit time distribution is a different shape.
Charlie Martin "
"A2/ Not really, the most bugs are found during the initial deployment of the software. After that its usually a gradual set of bugs, mostly caused by modifications to the code or addition of new features. Nothing like the initial code release. As the developers who made the original product die off, and upgrades cease, then too the bugs come to a grinding halt.
Al Katawazi "
"A3/The bathtub curve is really a descriptor of hardware failures (and a good one, at that) not software.
However, there is something similar going on with software. Generally speaking in most software production, our ability to create complexity has continued to slightly outpace our ability to handle it --- i.o.w. there is some sort of Peter principal at work where software systems (collectively) grow in complexity until they become unmanageable, and then stay there. So while today we're much better at handling some of the systemic problems of the 1990's, than we were back then, we're not much better at handling the systemic problems of the 00's. Such is life.
I don't think this looks quite like a bathtub, though.
simon "
"A4/ I think there is some (small) truth in the graph. After the first release or two, you're introducing new functionality and new bugs along with the bug fixes to previous bugs, so I think you've got a constant flow of new bugs. But after a while the code base becomes fragile and hard to maintain, and so I believe the flow of new bugs goes up sharply. That's when finally (hopefully) you can convince your bosses to stop patching and start re-engineering.
Paul Tomblin"
"A5/ I think a lot of it depends on how well it is maintained. I've got one large GUI application where I'm practically the only programmer that's maintained it, and its defect frequency has steadily decreased over the years, and I don't anticipate it going up at any point in the future.
However, had I let a junior programmer maintain it, I wouldn't feel the same way, as there is a great temptation for a maintainence programmer to code a 'good enough' fix and not 'the correct' fix. I can't blame him entirely, he probably doesn't have the knowledge of the code that the original programmer did.
Regarding the right side of the bathtub, if you consider external factors, such as Operating Systems, then there can be some correlation, as I've had some apps that newer versions of Windows broke, usuall
...y through no fault of the app. But this is a relatively small number.
Marc Bernier"
