I am currently undertaking a small scale research project as part of a college project I was wondering if you would be willing to be interviewed, either through email, or phone as part of that research. The interview itself is very short with 10 or so questions.
The title of my research project is The Role of Communication in developing successful apps. The aim of my research is to discover why some apps are successful focussing on the contribution of effective communication between stakeholders. I will begin by looking at areas such as first mover advantage, marketing, and capabilities before concentrating solely on the role of communication.
I wont disclose any information about any of you. It is totally anonymous :good:
I know this is very forward as a first post on this forum, but I am having trouble getting suitable participants.
Many thanks Bodie

At our Android News site we created a portion of the site devoted to Indie Development and first time developers; our hope is to bring more attention to developers who haven't been able to really show off the full potential of their application to large majority of the public. As many of you have developed before, please help us out and get these guys the much needed publicity they deserve. If you have developed an application and would like some constructive criticism/a review/or more public attention we have a spot just for you guys: you can submit your own applications here!
Both us and the developers appreciate the feedback! Thanks!
We currently have 6 applications up and reviewed over the past few weeks including:
Bend the Laser
Just In Case
Emotisounds
Wifi Timer
NinjaRave

well, i’ll start off by explaining myself. I’m a second year software engineering student. The Stage one of my degree focused on the fundamental computing principles, where i stuied six modules ;- computer systems, computer communications, internet technology, software engineering, problem-solving and programming and computing mathematics.
In stage two my degree specialises to develop further areas within software engineering. Studies include formal specification of software systems, internet programming, software engineering group project and systems design and development.
Anyhow thats enough about me. I’m currently seeking a similar minded/age junior software developer whom are willing to work along side me in order to contribute towards a software solutions company, as i’ve got some funding to start my own company and will be willing to employ about 6 people as a start off to do some programming ,the more language(java,c++, javascripts, html, UML, XML…etc) you know the better, must be socialble and able to work within a group as most of the work will be team based. If this sounds interesting to you then please feel free to email me for more details with a portfolio attached.
Almost forgot, you must have some coding background before applying.
[email protected] ;- for more details
That's nice sir, but not here, please read the forum rules. Try the off topic threads and or want adds. Thank you and Thread closed.
Automatic news summary from many sources on smartphones!
How would it seem to you having automatically on your smartphone a single summary of the news from multiple sources? Unbelievable? Yet, now it seems that not only can it go into practice, but it is also offered freely to all so as to become a part of our everyday life! Its name: NewSum!
Who does it?
SciFY, a not-for-profit organisation which develops cutting-edge information technology to solve real life problems and offers it freely to all, including all design, implementation details and support needed.
What is NewSum?
A really innovative application, NewSum that automatically summarizes information from many sources and combines them in a single text! It is an intelligent summary of all the different information that you would get if you read all the articles from all the sources you visit (or that you would like to have time to visit...). With the use of cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology, news are summarised and all repeated information is not duplicated. All these in a user friendly, tested and effective application.
Why do they do it?
As SciFY puts it: "The goal of this project is to reinforce pluralism in news coverage. Think about it: How can you get the whole picture in your areas of interest, fast? Up to now, in order to be well-informed about what you really want to, you were obliged to visit at least 2-3 different sites/blogs and spend valuable time reading news that are by 80% the same… Newsfeeds, news aggregators are not real solutions: They just group articles, but you still have to do the rest of the job, since you have to visit all the different sources in order to get the information you need (when / if you have the time!). NewSum is on the way to change all this..."
Why is it important to help NewSum?
Indicatively:
it is offered freely to all using open source code and all the support needed.
it promotes pluralism in news coverage by using cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology.
it is developed by an not-for-profit organisation by young volunteers - entrepreneurs.
How you can help in this phase?
The first version is soon to be released and needs testing. SciFY creates now a small group of beta testers, who are going to be the first to have access to the application. Anyone interested to see it in practice can contact SciFY soon by contcting me by PM!
Thank you!
Hi,
we, the Software Engineering Group at Trier University (Germany), are currently
conducting a survey on the use of sketches and diagrams in software
development. We want to gain deeper insights into the work of software practitioners
(developers, testers, architects, etc.) to call attention to their
actual work practices, which we think is rarely done in academic research.
It is difficult for us to reach software practitioners, therefore I post my call for participation here.
Our short online survey (5-10 minutes) is available here:
st . uni-trier.de / survey
We can also discuss how and why you create and use sketches and diagrams when developing software in this thread.
Thanks in advance for your participation!
Dear users of xda developers
Within the context of a research project by the Institute of Technology and Innovation Management at the Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg, we are investigating the potential of online communities as an instrument for the prediction of future developments and trends. We are planning to execute an “idea contest” which separates in four phases. We have no financial interests in the ideas. We are only interested how online communities discuss about the future.
THE PROCEDURE
First phase
How will open source software and operating systems look like in the year 2030?
This phase is a brainstorming of the future development open source software and operating systems.
The ideas and concepts should be posted within this thread and be discussed with other users. It doesn’t matter how detailed the concepts or ideas are. There is no right or wrong. Every idea and concept, regardless how farfetched or ‘exaggerated’ will be considered.
Time period for this round: 14 days.
We are looking forward to your discussions!
If you have any questions, just write here in the thread or contact us. We will guide you through the contest!
And now let’s start with phase 1!

Hey folks, we,
@Zeng1987 and myself, are very eager to hear your ideas and concepts how open soruce software and operating systems look like in 2030!
Best regards,

Cloud Computing
Hey Guys,
This sounds quite interesting.
I think cloud computing will play an important role for the future and will replace external storages.
In my company everthing is saved and stored in a cloud.
What do you guys think?
