ModeShape (formerly "JBoss DNA") is a JCR 2.0 (JSR-283) implementation that provides access to content stored in many different kinds of systems. A ModeShape repository isn't yet another silo of isolated information, but rather it's a JCR view of the information you already have in your environment: files systems, databases, other repositories, services, applications, etc. To your applications, ModeShape looks and behaves like a regular JCR repository. Using the standard JCR API, applications can search, navigate, version, and listen for changes in the content. But under the covers, ModeShape gets its content by federating multiple back-end systems (like databases, services, other repositories, etc.), allowing those systems to continue "owning" the information while ensuring the unified repository stays up-to-date and in sync. ModeShape repositories can be used in a variety of applications. One of the most obvious ones is in provisioning and management, where it's critical to understand and keep track of the metadata for models, database, services, components, applications, clusters, machines, and other systems used in an enterprise. Governance takes that a step farther, by also tracking the policies and expectations against which performance can be verified. In these cases, a repository is an excellent mechanism for managing this complex and highly-varied information. But a ModeShape repository doesn't have to be large and complex: it could just manage configuration information for an application, or it could just provide a JCR interface on top of a couple of non-JCR systems.

Data, Context and Interaction (DCI) is a paradigm used in computer software to program systems of communicating objects. Its goals are: To improve the readability of object-oriented code by giving system behavior first-class status; To cleanly separate code for rapidly changing system behavior (what the system does) from code for slowly changing domain knowledge (what the system is), instead of combining both in one class interface; To help software developers reason about system-level state and behavior instead of only object state and behavior; To support an object style of thinking that is close to peoples' mental models, rather than the class style of thinking that overshadowed object thinking early in the history of object-oriented programming languages. The paradigm separates the domain model (Data) from Use cases (Context) and Roles that objects play (Interaction). DCI is complementary to Model-view-controller (MVC). MVC as a pattern language is still used to separate the data and its processing from presentation. DCI was invented by Trygve Reenskaug, also the inventor of MVC. The current formulation of DCI is mostly the work of Reenskaug and James O. Coplien.

The aim of this paper is a brief introduction to MDA technology and a summary / comparison to the approachments to MDA of AndroMDA and Acceleo, intending to be a practical and understandable summary Introduction Model-driven architecture (MDA) is a software design approach for the development of software systems. It provides a set of guidelines for the structuring of specifications, which are expressed as models. It was launched by the Object Management Group (OMG) in 2001 The Model-Driven Architecture approach defines system functionality using a platform-independent model (PIM) using an appropriate domain-specific language (DSL). One of the main aims of the MDA is to separate design from architecture. As the concepts and technologies used to realize designs and the concepts and technologies used to realize architectures have changed at their own pace, decoupling them allows system developers to choose from the best and most fitting in both domains. The design addresses the functional (use case) requirements while architecture provides the infrastructure through which non-functional requirements like scalability, reliability and performance are realized. MDA envisages that the platform independent model (PIM), which represents a conceptual design realizing the functional requirements, will survive changes in realization technologies and software architectures.

"Clojure is a dynamic programming language that targets the Java Virtual Machine (and the CLR ). It is designed to be a general-purpose language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language - it compiles directly to JVM bytecode, yet remains completely dynamic. Every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection. Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language, and features a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures. When mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system that ensure clean, correct, multithreaded designs. I hope you find Clojure's combination of facilities elegant, powerful, practical and fun to use."

"Some aspects of system implementation, such as logging, error handling, standards enforcement and feature variations are notoriously difficult to implement in a modular way. The result is that code is tangled across a system and leads to quality, productivity and maintenance problems. Aspect Oriented Software Development enables the clean modularization of these crosscutting concerns. The AspectJ Development Tools (AJDT) project provides Eclipse platform based tool support for AOSD with AspectJ. Our goal is to deliver a user experience that is consistent with the Java Development Tools (JDT) when working with AspectJ projects and resources. "

" Why Object Teams? Team spirit for your objects Building complex systems from isolated objects often yields poor structure which readily decays during system evolution. Objects should team-up in order to co-operate and jointly deliver complex behaviors. Objects play specific roles within a given Team. Context based dispatch Role instances are attached as specializers to existing objects. Object behavior is controlled by the currently active context that determines which roles are active at a given point in time. Contexts are reified into team instances, which may further be used to mediate between roles and maintain state of the collaboration. Modules larger than classes On the road to re-use of modules larger than classes two approaches compete: frameworks and components. For many applications white box frameworks are too fragile and black box components to rigid. Object Teams provide a middle road which balances encapsulation and adaptability. "

The Java Content Repository (JCR) standard, which is based on the Java Specification Requests JSR170 (version 1.0) and JSR 283 (version 2.0), provides a Java-centric object-oriented storage API specifically targeted at content management scenarios. The JCR is not a content management system or a full-fledged content management system API, but rather a content repository API. A content repository provides a common API for all content-driven applications and CMS components, which require access to the content. It provides methods to read, write, and query content. The primary motivation of the JCR standard is to provide a standard and vendor-neutral programmatic interface for content repositories, allowing applications of multiple vendors to interact efficiently.

JDBC realm has a lot of attention in recent months. This blog summarizes the evolution of the JDBC realm implementation in GlassFish and explains how the latest implementation works. I would like to thank Jean-Baptiste, and Richter for their contributions and comments. The participation from the open source community definitely helps everyone. I encourage all of you to give feedback, participate, and help evolve this feature further. GlassFish always had the capability for anyone to plug-in a realm. Implementing a custom realm in the Sun Java System Application Server EE 8.0 is described in the article Authentication Using Custom Realms in Sun Java System Application Server. In S1AS 7.x, there is a JDBC Realm bundled in sample. Jean-Baptiste formally filed an enhancement and provided a clear text version of JDBCRealm for GlassFish. Richter wrote another implementation because the GlassFish JDBCRealm at that time not compatible with Tomcat.
