JavaOne Conference-Day 1




This morning's general session was such an amazing kick-off for this year's JavaOne. Jonathan Schwartz the president of Sun Microsystems gave a remarkable speech on how Java began to conquer mobile world and became a must-have for every mobile user.




It is interesting to know, apart from the vast invasion of Java virtual machine in every desktop, Java has significantly transformed itself into an essential part of every mobile device so that companies like Symbian, Microsoft and Palm desperately attempt to stay updated with the latest modifications in JME in order to well adapt and achieve the best performance.







He then called James Gosling the founder of JAVA programming language and Scott McNealy the former president of Sun Microsystems up on stage. It was so fascinating to see these three geniuses together, who have undoubtedly changed the way the world evolves.





The sessions I'm attending today at 8:30 am-10:30 pm are:

  • The Real-Time Java™ Platform Programming Challenge: Taming Timing Troubles
  • Mobile Service Architecture 2: Introducing New Features in Mobile Devices
  • Real Time: Understanding the Trade-Offs Between Determinism and Throughput
  • The Java™ 2 Platform, Micro Edition Mobile Information Device Profile 3.0 (MIDP 3.0)
  • Building Real-Time Systems for the Real World
  • Java Card™ 3 Platform: A Platform for Embedded Systems

  • Step-by-Step Development of an Application for the Java Card™ 3.0 Platform
  • Electronic Health Records (EHR) on Java Card™ 3.0 Technology-Based Devices
  • Inside the Sun Java™ Real-Time System

Persian History in the British Museum

I've been seeing the advert below quite often at London underground stations for the past few months. As I am Persian and very much interested in great Persian history, I would definitely pay a visit to the Persian section of the British Museum.










The last time I visited the British museum was roughly 4 years ago. I pretty enjoyed the proper arrangement of the different collections which nicely represented the trend of history.





April/2005




I spent hours on the Persian, Roman, Greek and Egyptian galleries. Unfortunately due to the so called irregular stance of the current government of Iran with the western world, Persian history is not being represented very well and in most cases is confused with other Middle eastern civilizations. What' s obvious is that ancient Persian civilization made a great contribution to the development of human civilization.
