• MS and HPC

    I hadn’t noticed that the Microsoft HPC site went live. Cool stuff for doing distributed, high-performance computing on the Microsoft platform. Very cool. I actually submitted my CV for one of the HPC posts when the team was forming few months ago but never heard from Microsoft 🙁

  • .NET Service Logic Caching using WSE

    While discussing the production service logic deployment I mentioned in my previous post, I thought that it’d be nice to apply the idea of dynamic service logic deployment for caching purposes. That is, not caching of SOAP documents but of the service logic. This could be useful in mobile computing scenarios where an application that…
