In this session, we'll show you how OpenSocial's REST and RPC protocols allow access to social data from mobile devices - both as mobile-targeted web applications and as native applications. We'll demonstrate a mobile application and dive into code that uses the OpenSocial Java client library on the Android platform. For those who are attending Google I/O 2009(http://code.google.com/io/), these...

The message passing (MP) paradigm is often seen as a superior alternative to the typical mix of idioms in concurrent (shared-memory, locks) and distributed programming (CORBA/RMI). MP eliminates worries endemic to the shared-memory mindset: lock ordering, failure-coupling, low-level data races and memory models. It simplifies synchronization between data and control planes (no lost signals or u...

In the first half of this episode, we’ll learn how to write Erlang server processes using gen_server, a module in the OTP library. Then, in the second half of this episode, we’ll put what we learned into practice by incrementally refactoring two of our home-grown servers to use gen_server. As a result, you’ll be able to immediately apply gen_server to your next Erlang server p...

It's a rare Ajax application that doesn't need network access. To the despair of many a developer, though, there are almost as many ways of communicating with a server as there are servers. The usual alphabet soup applies (XML, JSON, SOAP, RPC, and others) but even once you pick one, you're really just getting started. Designing your services for scalability and performance is an art in itself,...
