Python & Java: Side by Side Comparison: "Python & Java: a Side-by-Side Comparison
Updated: 2004-02-07
A programmer can be significantly more productive in Python than in Java. How much more productive? The most widely accepted estimate is 5-10 times."
Having read it briefly I'd have to say it appears to have more in common with PHP. An old comparison between Python and PHP can be found here: here

Job Scheduling in Java
by Dejan Bosanac
03/10/2004
On some projects, you find you need to execute certain jobs and tasks at an exactly specified time or at regular time intervals. In this article we will see how Java developers can implement such a requirement using the standard Java Timer API, and then we will focus on Quartz, an open source library for those who need some extra features in their scheduling system."

Title: RMI Internals
Title: RMI Internals: "Java RMI Internals
By Ahamed Aslam.K (aslam128@yahoo.com)
This article tries to answer the questions about RMI Internals such as
1. Who actually creates an object of stubs? Server, registry or client?
2. Which port the server is listening to?
3. Does the server listens to port 1099 (default port of RMI Registry)?
4. How will the client know to which port the server is listening?
5. Is a registry necessary for running the RMI system?
6. Can we use RMI without rmiregistry?"

Analysis When The New York Times leaked Google's intentions to create a branded mobile phone handset earlier this year, executives were furious, and heads rolled. Incredibly, the outrage wasn't synthetic. Only in a backwater like California - where the entrepreneurial, technological and social awareness of mobile phones lags slightly behind Cambodia and Albania - could such a caper be viewed as either original or posing some commercial merit.
(Nike is just one of several companies that had toyed with, and rejected, the idea of a branded phone. The reasons are obvious: in most of the world, users see phones as a fashion items, and change them frequently - often more than once a year. So this year's cool brand can quickly become next year's mullet.)" Article goes on to discuss Mobile Applications using Google.

The Tomcat 5 server provides built-in support for clustering and session replication. This first article in this series will provide an overview of session persistence and the inner works of session replication in Tomcat clusters. I will discuss how the session replication process works in Tomcat 5 and the replication mechanisms available for session persistence across the cluster nodes. In part two, I will discuss the details of a sample Tomcat cluster setup with session replication enabled, and compare different replication scenarios."

Google Scholar
Google Scholar: "About Google Scholar
Google Scholar enables you to search specifically for scholarly literature, including peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, preprints, abstracts and technical reports from all broad areas of research. Use Google Scholar to find articles from a wide variety of academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories and universities, as well as scholarly articles available across the web.
Just as with Google Web Search, Google Scholar orders your search results by how relevant they are to your query, so the most useful references should appear at the top of the page. This relevance ranking takes into account the full text of each article as well as the article's author, the publication in which the article appeared and how often it has been cited in scholarly literature. Google Scholar also automatically analyzes and extracts citations and presents them as separate results, even if the documents they refer to are not online. This means your search results may include citations of older works and seminal articles that appear only in books or other offline publications.
Please let us know if you have suggestions, questions or comments about Google Scholar. We recognize the debt we owe to all those in academia whose work has made Google itself a reality and we hope to make Google Scholar as useful to this community as possible. We believe everyone should have a chance to stand on the shoulders of giants."
