Congratulations Madam, it’s a phone
Now that the cat is out of the box, I can finally tell you a bit more about this project. You probably have seen all the press releases, so I don’t need to recap what you can expect out of it as a user. This is about what’s in for you as a developer, because this is what has attracted me so much as …
Upcoming Conference: Open Source in Mobile
I’m very pleased to be able to attend the first conference on business case and technology: Open Source in Mobile unavailable in Amsterdam this week. Not only will this be a great opportunity to discuss the merits of open source with business guys and operators, but also a chance to talk about the p…
Gtk+ Theming Woes for Embedded GUIs
In the project I’m working on, we want to have a visual user experience that is guaranteed to blow you away. Eye candy and usability combined. This is about eye candy. In theory, the Gtk+ theming capabilities are good. In practice, it sucks. I won’t go into complaining about the most underdocumented…
Back from Trolltech DevDays’06
The two days event run by Trolltech in the Hilton Park Hotel unavailable in Munich was fully loaded with a sophisticated technical program, interesting partner exhibits, and really good food (excluding the Trolltech cookies, which only looked cute)! Add two nice giveaways (a Trolltech branded back…
Back from OEDEM’06

Getting there wasn’t that easy and since there are already documentations for installing other L…
Conferences Ahead
I enjoy going to conferences. When I was younger, I really loathed travelling. Now that I am much more open minded, I’m having fun seeing other towns and countries and meeting people from all over the planet. Currently I’m looking forward to attending two important conferences next month: OEDEM’06 …
Thesis Submitted
Today I have submitted my Ph.D. thesis “Component-based adaptive Middleware for mobile distributed systems” to the examination office! My thesis shows how the encapsulation of distributed systems middleware functionality into components can lead to an adaptive middleware system that — by the means o…
The Trouble with NDAs
NDAs are pretty common in freelance work projects. The acronym NDA stands for “Non Disclosure Agreement”, which basically means that you are not allowed to talk about anything related to clients, vendors, hardware or software specifications, market strategics, etc. While I understand (and of course …
Thesis Progress
Since May 2006 I’m no longer employed at the Frankfurt University (they have limited 5-year contracts for offspring researchers) and getting time to proceed with my doctoral thesis got much harder. I had to find calm periods between starting my freelancer career unavailable and a lot of everyday lif…
