Please help me choose a technology to connect !

Hi, I am a MSc (Software Development) student from University of Huddersfield, UK. I have to submit a final year project proposal by the end of July.
My real client is a pharmaceutical company with many offices in many cities. They maintain a central database in one city. The need is to develop a means of accessing this database via a Java technology over the Internet as well as Intranet. The use of applets and web pages is discouraged by the non-technical company advisors. I wonder what can be the solution ?? Please guide me in the right direction and kindly point a right Java technology to be used in a Java Application for this need.
The relevant detail is:
1). Back end Database is in ORACLE.
2). Front END is supposed to be an Internet + Intranet enabled Application.
3). The choice of technologies to be considered:
RMI ??? (may be a rediculous question)
EJ Beans ??
Servelets ??
What should I think of ?? Please help me out as the time to decide is slipping out of my hands.
Regards,
Shahzad.

The use of applets
and web pages is discouraged by the non-technical
company advisors. I wonder what can be the solution ??You sure? That pretty much rules out any normal 'web' solution. Maybe they want a web solution which does not use applets, but other web technologies are ok.
If not...
The only thing left is a client-server application. Every client box will have to have the client application installed.
This means that you now have to implement not only a client solution but you will also have to create an install and handle security yourself.
The security problems are rather large. The server will have to have a port which is open to the internet. Transmissions will have to use encryption just to keep the kiddie-hackers out.

Hi,
First (non-technical people - like overpaid business managers) don't usually have a clue what they are talking about.
So, first, you need to make a case fro using simple well-known technology eg a tomcat server and the new buzz-word is SOAP (well it's not that new, but then the internet is getting old too).
Three web sites in 1996 (I quote Bill Clinton in the Dimbly lectures), maybe it was four!
On to SOAP, do a google/msn search on the subject.
It is a way of running a thin client/ server operation, passing all data as text or maybe xml (another buzzword?) through good old html.
You can therefore bypass firewalls with any data sent, there is not a need for expensive pcs (front-end users machines). The server does all the processing and returns a response as either a text response, an xml response, or just maybe a href link to a resource.
Just some ideas to think about.
Hope this helps

Help With Choosing The Technology

Hello,
I need help in choosing the appropriate technology for the application that I'm going to be creating.
The characteristics of the system that have been decided until now:
Standalone app built on either Flex/Flash/AIR
Restricted to using the system on a single computer, hence can be a tightly coupled system
The server component of the system needs to be closed source and robust, for which im thinking something like a Java backend,etc,etc.
In a completely new environment, all that i need to be able to do is install just the AIR application and not worry about installing extra stuff for the server support.
Thanks In Advance for anyone who can help me out with this.

If you are saying you want the server component to be on the same machine as the Flex app, then your choices are severely limited due to the sandbox, unless of course you are using AIR, then you can just use the SQLite database.
But if there will be a sevrer component on another machine on the web, you could use BlazeDS, and like I said, its free and very robust.

Please Help, My macbook won't stay connected to internet idk what to do

Hello, i just bought my macbook pro. Its a Mac OS X ver. 10.5.7 with a 2.26GHz processor.
I have a Netgear 54mbps wireless router WGR614 v8 and a Motorola SB5100 SURFboard Cable modem.
Now the problem im having is with the internet connection with my mac. I live in Virginia and It was working before i went on vacation to tennessee which is an hour behind virginia. It was able to connect with no problems. It was also connecting fine in tennessee as well. But when i came back to Virginia, the mac would connect to my router or atleast say its connected but i can't use the internet at all. I would load either firefox, safari, or itunes store and the page would begin to load and then stop loading in the middle. As if it was freezing, dropping the connection or something. When i look through the airport connectivity, it would stay connected to my router with still no access to the internet. I also checked to make sure i was in the correct time zone with my mac and it was correct.I have a wii, xbox, original pc that are connected to router that operate perfectly. its just my macbook wont connect wirelessly when it used to before i went to tennesse and took it with me. Some of the error messages that i get when i try to use the internet via macbook now are "can't open page because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection" but then minutes later it would connect again, then internet would work. But shortly after it would stop working for a while. and the process continues like a cycle. PLEASE HELP BECAUSE IM CLUELESS. i've looked at many forums but no solution.

I've been having the same problem for the last 2 weeks, because it's a macbook air it's completely useless!
I spent a tenner on a usb/ethernet cable but it's not Mac Compatable, to buy an official one is going to cost ...god knows. But this machine comes with no superdrive, no ethernet, no adapter for an ethernet. The least they can do is make sure the wifi works! I think I upgraded the OS, but I can't be sure if that coincided with the crap internet speeds.
I'm really angry now, I don't have the time to take it down to shop, and looking on the internet it appears this is really common problem. It's a beautiful machine, but if I knew it was going to be this much hassle I wouldn't have bothered. This is the first and last time I will buy a mac.

Please Help with Forms and SQL Plus Connection Issues in XE

Thanks, Vikas!
But I did a search for 6iServer.conf and did NOT locate any such file
Please help
TIA
SHANKAR
Shankar,
It would have helped if you had indicated what is the full version of 9iAS that you have installed. By default the portnumber that is used is 7778.
As per the entries, they should have already been made in the config files. But check that the 6iServer.Conf file and it should contain the entries that you are being told to update. If not, then add the entries in the 6iServer.conf file and that is all you need.
HTH.

PLEASE HELP Me Choose the Perfect dv7t Quad Specs

am customizing an HP Pavilion dv7t quad edition notebook PC.
I have a few choices to make. Money is not really a problem, but I don't really want to spend an extra $150 if the difference for the price is utterly minimal. I would really appreciate you reviewing my current selections and determining whether or not I should upgrade or downgrade them, where applicable. Also, I would really appreciate you answering any questions found throughout my post. Thank you so much.
I want my laptop to:
1) Run RuneScape with no lag (except for lag from the game itself)
2) Load webpages and programs extremely fast, and maintain the performance as the computer gets older.
3) I do not want my laptop to overheat. My current dv7t from 2009 becomes so hot every time I use it that I cannot let it touch my skin or it will hurt badly.
4) Have a beautiful graphics display
5) Be physically appealing. My scale is: The Samsung Series 9 is considered beautiful, the Alienware is considered hideous
With these requirements in mind, please tell me whether or not you think my proposed laptop is a good choice. Also feel free to tell me about any other laptops that you think might work well for me. (PS: would the Samsung Series 9 be able to handle Runescape? Thanks!)
1) Operating system
Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
2) Processor
2nd generation Intel(R) Quad Core(TM) i7-2720QM (2.2 GHz, 6MB L3 Cache) w/Turbo Boost up to 3.3 GHz
One step down: 2nd generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2670QM (2.2 GHz, 6MB L3 Cache) with Turbo Boost up to 3.1 GHz
One step up: 2nd generation Intel(R) Quad Core(TM) i7-2820QM (2.3 GHz, 8MB L3 Cache) w/Turbo Boost up to 3.4 GHz (+$200.00)
"Both of those processors are rated at 45 watts, so if you go with the lower powered one, you might see just a few minutes of battery at best over the higher rated processor. Since the speed is ever so close, and the features are the same between the two, I would go with the 2720 due to the fact that it's about $200USD less. You will not see a difference in speed for 100mhz. Only long calculations, such as compressing a movie, MIGHT gain you just a minute or so with the extra 2mb of cache on the 2820, but not really worth it I think."
3) Graphics card
2GB Radeon(TM) HD 6770M GDDR5 Graphics [HDMI, VGA]
One step down: 1GB Radeon(TM) HD 6770M GDDR5 Graphics [HDMI, VGA] (-$50.00)
Two steps down: 1GB GDDR5 Radeon(TM) HD 6490M Graphics [HDMI, VGA] (-*75.00)
What is the importance of the memory of a graphics card?
4) Memory
8GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)
5) Hard drive
1TB 5400RPM Hard Drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection
One step down: 750GB 7200RPM Hard Drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection (-$80.00)
6) Primary battery
9 Cell Lithium Ion Battery
One step up: One 6 Cell and One 9 Cell Lithium Ion Battery (+$30.00)
Two steps up: Two 9 Cell Lithium-Ion Batteries (+$60.00)
When does it become oversized? does a larger battery make the laptop hotter?
7) Display
17.3" Full HD BrightView Infinity LED(1920x1080)
One step down: 17.3" HD+ HP BrightView LED (1600 x 900) (-$150.00)
Is there a noticeable difference?
8) Primary optical drive
Blu-ray player & SuperMulti DVD burner
9) Personalization
HP TrueVision HD Webcam with Integrated Digital Microphone and HP SimplePass Fingerprint Reader
10) Networking
Intel 802.11b/g/n WLAN and Bluetooth(R)
What does bluetooth do?
This question was solved.

Hi,
For computers/laptops, nothing is perfect. You always can find a better one tomorrow. Depending on what do you need/want you can buy a suitable laptop for TODAY.
2. Processor: 2670QM should be fine
3. Graphics: stick with 6770M
5. HDD: I prefer 7200rpm HDD, in theory should be faster
6. 6 or 6 cells is ok, again depending how long you use the machine w/o power point nearby
7. It depends but I prefer full HD (1920 x 1080)
8. I would buy BD/DVD combo as mentioed in the specs
9. No choice anyway
10. BT (Bluetooth) is a technology which allows you to transmit and receive wirelessly over a short distance (I really don't know how far it can go but my phone only works within around 10 meters). You can use it for a BT mouse, keyboard, phone ... Please read more information from this:

Please help me choose a Mac Mini

I have not owned any mac computer and have been waiting for the new mini for a few months. I need a decent mac computer without having to spend too much to program iOS and maybe some photo viewing and casual editing. So the OS X is important to me.
The new Mac mini is kind of disappointing. I would expect a better quad CPU and user expandable memory (still uncertain so far). So I am struggling between two choices:
1. I may choose the new 2.6 G model and definitely need the memory to be 16GB. I am not sure if I want the 1TB fusion drive for $200.
2. There are still some old 2012 quad models available at some online stores and I may get one and expand the memory to 16 myself. Can we easily swap out the hard drive and install one 1TB SSD? How do we transfer the OS and app with the box to the new SSD? The biggest concern on this option is if I can update the OS to OS X Yosemite and even later versions because I will use it for programming iSO apps and must be able to update to the latest OS X.
Thanks.

From what I see in the Apple Store, the new Mini still does not have a quad-core cpu
nor did the older Mini (Late 2012) across any they had listed. However if you need a
quad core model and performance, looking into the future, you should seek to inspect
the higher specification computers in the line. Since there is a limited upgrade, I can
see why the Mini is desired. If you get a Mini server model, internal storage options
can be increased. New MINI 16GB RAM upgrade is an Online Store-only upgrade.
http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/mac-mini
The only small computer with quad-core cpu technologies in the Store, is 15" MB/Pro
portable, offering several features but at a higher price; including a Retina display.
Of these, two models; both near & above $2K USD; the dual GPU model may have
gotten past the hardware earlier model owners cited issues with over a few years.
http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/macbook-pro
An SSD and RAM upgrade could make the MINI a fair computer, even though it only
has the Dual-Core technology. However the upgrade may affect AppleCare coverage.
There often are Late 2012 model Mini Macs in the official online refurb store page, &
they qualify for the optional AppleCare; however they don't offer custom upgrades.
The low-end MINI has similar specs to the low-end non-Retina MacBook Pro 13-inch.
A little faster bus speed, and a slightly newer graphic processor...
At least the newest Mini, according to the online Apple Store, says it will ship with
Yosemite; so with 16GB RAM, that can be a good start. You should ask an Apple
genius or specialist what they can do for you in the way of an upgrade to larger SSD
or HDD, after delivery, so AppleCare is not affected. If they still let you do anything.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

Please help me choose a technology to connect !
