August 28, 2008 – Toronto, Canada – DeviceAnywhere’s CEO & Co-founder, Faraz Syed will describe user-friendly mCommerce applications that guide mobile application developers to create effective applications at the 2008 Financial Services Technology Forum. 

   

Living up to expectations: developing user-friendly mCommerce applications

 

Consumers expect the same experience on handsets as on computers. MCommerce is particularly challenged by creating mobile applications that end-users will embrace. Applications used for online banking are not easily transferable to mobile devices. Just as consumers were initially skeptical of Internet banking, they will be hesitant to make financial transactions on handsets. Consumers must know that applications are secure and reliable.

 

Developers can ease these fears by ensuring that only the most user-friendly and secure applications make it to market. Fixing problems can be accomplished by developing and frequent testing across myriad devices – a feat most easily and cost-effectively accomplished through DeviceAnywhere.  DeviceAnywhere provides developers remote access to real devices over live networks – on which they can develop, test, and deploy applications. Unlike emulators, DeviceAnywhere employs real devices, so devices behave exactly as if developers were holding them in their hands. DeviceAnywhere empowers mCommerce developers with tools to create effective applications – thereby satisfying end-users.

August 27, 2008 – Toronto, Canada – Bradley Brown, Chief Technology Officer at TUSC will present the implementation and benefits of the lightweight Service Oriented Architecture at the 2008 Financial Services Technology Forum.

 

Internal and External Application Integration - Oracle Fusion Web Services

 

Having ventured down the path of a full bore implementation of internal and external application integration in what he perceived as the most efficient and cost effective manner; attendees will get the benefit of his hindsight introspection today. Specifically, he will explain the implementation and benefits of the lightweight Service Oriented Architecture (i.e. Web Services) wherever it makes sense. This presentation will discuss the good, bad and ugly about this approach that was taken.

 

While Brad is easily recognized as an accomplished Oracle author and world-renowned speaker, it is his technological expertise that clearly is his identity. While he has enjoyed a countless number of major implementation successes over the years, one milestone that clearly stands out centers around the development of “Periscope” which he released through TUSC in 2002. Periscope is breakthrough software that makes data from other data sources (i.e., Microsoft Access, Sybase, SQL Server, DB2, Web Services, file systems, APIs, etc.) appear as if it’s in one big Oracle Database. The data also can be inserted, updated and deleted from many source databases. The groundbreaking tool works with more than 100 databases.

Know What Healthy Food Is and How You Should Eat

When pursuing a healthy eating plan, you should remember the following:

1. Try and Eat a Variety of Different Colored Food – You should remember that different foods have different nutritional values. Food can be rich in antioxidants or Vitamin C. So, when you go to do your regular weekly shop, try and see what different colored foods you can pick up.

Down the fruit and vegetable aisle you should see greens, yellows, oranges and reds. You should have as much of a color variety in your trolley as you can. For example, when picking out fruit pick up strawberries, oranges, pineapple, apples, blueberries and bananas and you will notice what a large color selection you actually have. The same goes for vegetables. Basically, more color means that it is better and healthier for you.  Read more...
