Virtualization impacts human behaviour -- let alone machine!
My son, Ronav, just turned one and I have been trying to make him walk. Every time I hold his one hand, he quickly grabs me with other because of the natural fear of falling down. By holding with both hands, his body gives his mind some sort of a feedback loop, which calms him down and the brain then instructs his body that it's safe to walk!After watching this for couple of days, I thought of tricking his mind using "virtualization" technique. I held his one hand, like always, but this time I…See More

I started painting the storyboard, and all of a sudden got this overwhelming feeling of how "real" the…See More

Going back few years, I found an interesting article on application quality that discusses the need for a Quality Architect in an enterprise:"Quality begins in the team - not the application. Proper planning, communication and processes are essential to any successful project. Projects that lack these fundamentals will likely produce problematic applications. I'm a firm believer that large teams with diverse skill sets need a Quality Architect - a highly skilled technical person on your team…See More

SOA Projects: Too Many Constraints Equals Poor Quality
Have you assessed your investment in SOA lately?Is your SOA project running over budget? If so, is it because you have overstaffed to meet your deadline? Or have you just made poor budgeting decisions? Or, is it both? Are you delivering quality and speed? Over the past few years, I've seen SOA projects run over budget and over deadline and still deliver poor quality. I don't find my observations surprising. In fact, they are right in line with Gartner's prediction two years ago that unplanned…See More
