Optimize Managed Code For Multi-Core Machines(msdn.microsoft.com)

submitted by jamesewelch(2275) 4 years, 8 months ago

Multi-processor machines are now becoming standard while the speed increases of single processors have slowed down. The key to performance improvements is therefore to run a program on multiple processors in parallel. Unfortunately, it is still very hard to write algorithms that actually take advantage of those multiple processors. In fact, most applications use just a single core and see no speed improvements when run on a multi-core machine. We need to write our programs in a new way. read more...

11 Tools for Database Versioning(secretgeek.net)

submitted by joshirushabh(810) 5 years, 8 months ago

If you're developing code today, it's probably 'controlled' using a version control product of some sort. (We use Vault here, and in the past we used V S S) That's great, your code is covered. But what about your stored procedures, and your database schema? Many developers (I suggest 'most') have no form of version control on their stored procedures or their table structures etc. read more...

That makes it ideal for applications that need to store information such as settings or XML without first asking for permission. Application types such as ClickOnce or non-installable applications would benefit hugely from this capability. read more...
