Multithreading is a common cause of headaches for programmers. Since humans are naturally not used to this kind of "parallel" thinking, designing a multithreaded program becomes much less straight-forward than writing software with a single thread of execution.
In this article, we will take a look at
The question pops up a lot both on the internet and when someone would like to check your knowledge of how Java treats variables:
Does Java "pass-by-reference" or "pass-by-value" when passing arguments to methods?
It seems like a simple question (it is), but many people
The Java Persistence API (JPA) is the persistence standard of the Java ecosystem. It allows us to map our domain model directly to the database structure and then giving us the flexibility of only manipulating objects in our code. This allows us not to dabble with cumbersome JDBC components
In this article, we'll be implementing the Observer Design Pattern to solve a commonly occurring problem in object-oriented software development.
Design Patterns are standardized solutions to common problems in the software development industry. Being familiar with them, a developer is able to recognize where each should be implemented and
Simulated Annealing is an evolutionary algorithm inspired by annealing from metallurgy. It's a closely controlled process where a metallic material is heated above its recrystallization temperature and slowly cooled.
Successful annealing has the effect of lowering the hardness and thermodynamic free energy of the metal and altering its internal
REST APIs are flexible and allow developers to make decoupled systems. With the rise of the microservice architecture - REST has matured even more as microservices can be built irrespective of the language or the framework used in the application.
Being "in the spotlight" - this means
From picking your cherished pair of jeans from your wardrobe to choosing the next movie to watch with your partner, human life is filled with searching for things.
While in day-to-day life, humans usually search between a few, if not a dozen, items. Computers have to deal with searching
Design patterns are a collection of programming methodologies used in day-to-day programming. They represent solutions to some commonly occurring problems in the programming industry, which have intuitive solutions.
Sooner or later, a desktop program, mobile app, or some other type of software will inevitably become complex and start exhibiting
