Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Design Principle: Coupling, Cohesion, and Granularity
In the realm of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) design principles, the concepts of Service Coupling, Service Cohesion, and Service Granularity play pivotal roles in shaping a robust and effective architectural framework. Service Coupling refers to the degree of interdependence between any two business processes. In the context of SOA, weak coupling is highly preferred as…
What Software Patterns (or Design Patterns) are and an introduction to the most common one
Software patterns, often referred to as design patterns, are a reusable and generalizable solution to a common problem that software developers face when designing and building software applications. Design patterns are essentially templates or blueprints for solving recurring design problems in a systematic and efficient way. Design patterns serve several important purposes in software development:…
On Genetic Algorithms as an Optimization Technique for Neural Networks
Genetic algorithms are an optimization technique inspired by the process of natural selection and genetics. In computer science, they are used to solve complex problems and find optimal solutions by mimicking the principles of evolution. A population of potential solutions is created and evolves over generations through the application of genetic operators such as selection,…
Using DataCamp for getting familiar with Data Science concepts
I am sharing a collection of classes in DataCamp that may help you in getting familiar with data science concepts in a practical manner. DataCamp is a paid service, however, students can normally use it for free. Probably the university where you are studying have an institutional subscription or, if that is not the case,…
Free Resources That Will Warm Up Your Programming Environment
This article considers some free resources to warm up your programming environment. These are particularly useful if you plan to do a programming oriented thesis where you analyze data by writing some code.

Improving the performance of XML based technologies by caching and reusing information
Improving the performance of XML based technologies by caching and reusing information. Is it possible? Abstract: The growing synergy between Web Services and Grid or cloud based technologies is enabling profound, dynamic interactions between applications dispersed in geographic, institutional, and conceptual space. Such deep interoperability requires the simplicity, robustness, and extensibility for which XML has…
Client Side Estimation of a Remote Service Execution
Is it possible to achieve a Client Side Estimation of a Remote Service Execution? Abstract: Many use cases, concerning the monitoring and controlling of real physical instruments, demand deep interaction between users and services that virtualize the access to such instruments/devices. In addition, in order to realize high interoperable solutions, SOA-based Web/Grid Service technologies must…
The API Economy: Resources for Programming the Web
The API economy is an effective way to leverage the possibility of programming the Web. The definition of this practice is relatively simple: API Economy (sometimes known as API-driven economy) simply refers to the exchange of value between consumers and providers through APIs. An application programming interface (or API) is a computing interface which defines…
