Chapter 28: Designing SharePoint LOB Applications For more details of the topics covered in this guide, see Contents of the Guide. In this chapter, you will learn about the architecture for a typical SharePoint line-of-business (LOB) application, and the components it contains. You will see the key scenarios and the important design considerations for SharePoint LOB applications. You will also learn about deployment, key patterns, and the technology considerations for designing SharePoint LOB applications. Microsoft Windows Server® is the core operating system on which SharePoint LOB applications run. SharePoint integrates tightly with the broader Microsoft platform, using Internet Information Services (IIS) as a front-end Web server to host Web sites, and SQL Server as the networked store for site definitions, content type definitions, published content, and configuration data.

HTML 5 Reference It is useful to make a distinction between the vocabulary of an HTML document—the elements and attributes, and their meanings—and the syntax in which it is written. HTML has a defined set of elements and attributes which can be used in a document; each designed for a specific purpose with their own meaning. Consider this set of elements to be analogous to the list of words in a dictionary. This includes elements for headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, links, form controls and many other features.

Developer's Guide to Microsoft Prism patterns & practices Developer Center February 2012 Prism provides guidance designed to help you more easily design and build rich, flexible, and easily maintained Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) desktop applications, Silverlight Rich Internet Applications (RIAs), and Windows Phone 7 applications. Using design patterns that embody important architectural design principles, such as separation of concerns and loose coupling, Prism helps you to design and build applications using loosely coupled components that can evolve independently but which can be easily and seamlessly integrated into the overall application. These types of applications are known as composite applications. Prism is intended for software developers building WPF or Silverlight applications that typically feature multiple screens, rich user interaction and data visualization, and that embody significant presentation and business logic.

Object Computing, Inc. - Java News Brief - March 2009 by R. Mark Volkmann, Partner Object Computing, Inc. (OCI) last updated on 6/2/13 robotics news The ROSCon 2017 organizing committee aims for ROSCon to represent the entire ROS community, which is diverse and global. In addition to promoting technology that is open source, we also strive to ensure that our communities themselves are as open and accessible as possible, since we recognize that diversity benefits the ROS ecosystem as a whole. Whoever you are, whatever you do, and wherever you do it, if you're interested in ROS, then we want you to join us at ROSCon. To help reduce the financial barriers to conference attendance, the ROSCon organizing committee is offering a number of scholarships to members of traditionally underrepresented groups in the tech community. Thanks to the support of the program's sponsors, these scholarships each include a complimentary conference registration pass and three nights' accommodation shared with another recipient*. Limited travel support is available for participants whose travel to the conference would otherwise be infeasible.

WPF Hands-On Lab: Get Started with the Prism Library In this lab, you will learn the basic concepts of the Composite Application Guidance for WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) and apply them to create a Composite Application Library solution that you can use as the starting point for building a composite WPF application. After completing this lab, you will be able to do the following: You will understand the basic concepts of the Composite Application Guidance for WPF. You will create a new solution based on the Composite Application Library. You will create a module and load it statically. You will create a view and show it in the Shell window.

Kinect for Windows Blog BUILD—Microsoft’s annual developer conference—is the perfect showcase for inventive, innovative solutions created with the latest Microsoft technologies. As we mentioned in our previous blog, some of the technologists who have been part of the Kinect for Windows v2 developer preview program are here at BUILD, demonstrating their amazing apps. In this blog, we’ll take a closer look at how Kinect for Windows v2 has spawned creative leaps forward at two innovative companies: Freak’n Genius and Reflexion Health. Left: A student is choosing a Freak’n Genius character to animate in real time for a video presentation on nutrition. Introduction to Unity By using dependency injection frameworks and inversion of control mechanisms, developers can generate and assemble instances of custom classes and objects that can contain dependent object instances and settings. The Unity Application Block supports this functionality, allowing developers to use techniques such as container-configured injection, constructor injection, property injection, and method call injection to generate and assemble instances of objects complete with all dependent objects and settings. The Unity Application Block exposes two methods for registering types and mappings with the container: RegisterType.
