Hi, i want to protect my Java product by using some USB-based authentication and password management solution like you can buy it here: aladdin This mean that you have to connect a USB stick with a special software on it, before you can start your application. I would like to here some experience of users which have used hardware like ...
Hi All. I would like to create/start a simulator for the following microcontroller board: http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=707# The firmware is written in assembly so I'm looking for some pointers on how one would go about simulating the inputs that the hardware would receive and then the simulator would res...
I am going to be working with a few outside developers for some ASP.NET projects and wanted to setup a co-located server for version control, testing, and staging client sites until they are ready to deploy. I already have the ISP and have a 10 megabit connection burstable to 100, so I don't think bandwidth is going to be an issue. My...
I am pricing a new software development machine and looking at the dell precision series.

I have developed my ASP.net application with SQL Server 2005 which as installed version of .net Framework 2.0. Please some one suggest what are the hardware requirements (windows server) to host in Production server and its configuration to host the application. The total number of users around 10,000 per second around 10,000 requests...
Greetings! Anyway, My question, If you want to experiment developing for a Windows Mobile device, how would you go about testing your applications? I know there is a emulator but is not really ideal. Is there anyway, without paying a stupid astronomical cost, to get a development phone? Akin to what Google did with the android and I ...
Hi All -- Does anybody know of a good company that leases VMs so I can load test my web app? I need to be able to change the CPUs, memory and configure a virtual web farm. Thanks ...
I am going to use Microsoft.pointofservice library to communicate with point of sale hardwares. There isn't much documented by microsoft about this library. So before i spend my and other 5 developers time on this would like to get review of this libray if any one has ever used it. Please suggest there are any other way to communicate w...
I was recently reading about the Arduino's Hello World application, and I thought to myself, "I wonder if I can do that with hardware that I have right now." Since I don't have an Arduino, I grabbed a usb flash drive that I had laying around and started googling around for information about it. I didn't find much helpful information in...
Is there a library that would allow me to send and receive data on a Serial COM port? ...
From a purely theoretical level, how few transistors do you need to build a working CPU? ...
Hello everyone, I'm working on a bug reporting tool for my application, and I'd like to attach hardware information to bug reports to make pinpointing certain problems easier. Does anyone know of any Win32 API functions to query the OS for information on the graphics and sound cards? Thanks, Rob ...
Hi, I'm looking for a laymen's introduction to computer hardware and organization. Here are some of the topics I would like to cover. Brief intro to electronics. Gates and state machines, intro to register transfer and timing. Basic CPU design. Control. Microprogrammed CPU design. Cache systems. Memory hierarchy:regist...
Hello, What would be a good methodology for learning how computers and computer programming works? For example, would you recommend learning how circuits work, then assembly language, and then higher level languages? ...
I posted an answer to another stackoverflow question which requires some digital logic to be implemented in Verilog or VHDL so that it can be programmed into an FPGA. How would you implement the following logic diagram in Verilog, VHDL, or any other hardware description language? The numbered boxes represent bits in a field. Each field...
I posted this digital logic diagram as an answer to another stackoverflow question. It describes a logic system which will be coded in Verilog or VHDL and eventually implemented in an FPGA. The numbered boxes in the diagram represent bits in a field. Each field has K bits, and the bits for current and mask will be provided by a comput...
I happened across this article about hardware based hard drive encryption and realized that not only would this give a great way to protect your data but it would also speed up the applications that we use to encrypt that data. This lead me to wonder... Would it be possible to do the same thing for compression so that all of the data i...
Hello, maybe my question would be lost in the forum, but has somebody work with RFID tags? I know I can read them, but can I write or modify the inside data? Does anyone know where can I find more about this? ...
Do you guys think it's a good idea to get used to programming with a keyboard without a numpad? At work I use one with a numpad, but as soon as I use a keyboard without one, like in laptops, it slows me down considerably. So does it make sense to get used to programming on the left side of the keyboard even if you have a numpad? ...
