Leichtgewichtige Architekturen mit Spring, JPA, Maven und GroovyThorsten Kamann
Gute Software sollte sich an der entsprechenden Fachdomäne orientieren und nicht an der zugrundeliegenden Technologie. Um dies zu erreichen, wird allerdings eine Basis benötigt, die technisch ausgereift ist ohne Einschränkungen für die Entwicklung. Eine solche Basis kann mit dem Springframework geschaffen werden. Die Kombination von Spring, Annotations, Java Persistence (JPA) und Unit-Testing erlaubt eine flexible und modulare Architektur und könnte eine mögliche technische Basis für ein solches Softwaresystem sein.
Dieser Vortrag stellt einen Lösungsansatz anhand eines einfachen Beispiels vor. Die Aufbereitung der Inhalte orientiert sich dabei an einem typischen test-zentrierten Entwicklungsprozess. Folgende Themen werden angesprochen:
* Einleitung Spring und JPA, Maven, Groovy
* Projektstruktur
* Entwicklung der API (der Schnittstellen)
* Test-getriebene Entwicklung der Implementierung
* Spring-unterstützte Integrationstests
Ausblick:
* Spring 2.5 - mehr Annotations; Verwaltung von Entities mit Spring
* Webschicht - Anbindung einer Webanwendung mit Java Server Faces (JSF)
* Spring-Webservices - Contract-First Webservices mit Spring-WS 1.0
The document presents slides on managing individual stress in organizations. It discusses the concept of stress and stressors, and how an individual's personality, perceptions, and experiences can influence their stress levels. Sources of work stressors are identified as workload, job conditions, role conflicts, career development, and interpersonal relations. The slides describe the physiological, emotional, and behavioral effects of stress, as well as its impacts on health and job performance. Both individual initiatives like time management and relaxation techniques, as well as organizational initiatives like modifying work stressors and employee assistance programs are presented as ways to manage stress.
