  Mining the intranet [December 12, 2003]
One of my early uses of Web services, back in 1999, predated SOAP and WSDL. It was a script to calculate what I called Web mindshare. It combined Yahoo’s capability of enumerating sites in a category with AltaVista’s capability of counting inbound links to each of those sites. It was a primitive version of what Google, then in beta, went on to prove dramatically: Links measure authority. What interested me even more, though, was how easily that little script was able to compose a novel service — ranking everything in a category — from two existing but unrelated services.
 
 
  DevPartner 7.1 is a powerful programmers suite [November 26, 2003]
The transition to Microsoft’s brave new world of managed code will probably take a decade, during which time Windows programmers will struggle with the complexities of a hybrid managed/unmanaged environment -- both in the Windows OS itself and in the componentized applications and services layered on top of it. Instrumenting these very different programming environments -- so that developers can analyze, profile, and more effectively debug programs straddling the unmanaged and managed worlds -- is a big challenge that Compuware's latest offering, DevPartner Studio 7.1, tackles fearlessly.

  The path to pervasive computing [December 12, 2003]
InfoWorld is one of the few IT publications that has taken up convergence, pervasive computing, and embedded technology as topics worthy of mainstream coverage. The concepts themselves are easy enough to get behind: We want each device to do as much for us as possible, to be cheap enough to put in everyone’s hands, and to be small enough to become an unobtrusive part of everyday life. What relegates these technologies to the fringe, or at least to the boundary between the serious and the frivolous, is that the best current place to study this new technology category is in consumer electronics. Don’t let that put you off. You’re about to witness the arrival of the next epoch. Do you remember the last one?
