finally I submit my dissertation last thursday. It was a really tough process for 2-3 months working on that dissertation. Now I am waiting the results which will be ready at November.

Now, I will return to Bahrain to start my new life. seeking for a job and building my career.

before leaving Manchester after two days from now, I am just relaxing and trying to enjoy my time. It is hard to move directly from a stressful time to a relaxation moment. however, trying to do some coding make me enjoying this time.

If anyone know any company have available vacancies, please let me know to help me to minimize the unemployment time.

sorry because I did not write anything from a long time. I really do not know why I don’t have anything to talk about!

Okay, just to start writing again, now this blog is working with WP 2.5 and finally i take a time to update the blog and chose a new them for it.

Thanks everybody who are reading.

Did you ever heard about the term web games? I start playing on one of the most famous games and its name is Travian. The Arabic servers is not so good as other languages severs but at least you can play.

The web games do not need for anything other than a web browser like Fire Fox or Internet explorer and you can start playing.  Because of that you can play it from anywhere and anytime even when you want to check your email on the university laps you can take a look on your web game account and do some actions.

I am addicted now to this game and I do not know what I will do if I lose the connection with the internet for two or more days.

what about you? did you like games? Zero hour? Fifa? any game? online or ofline game?

This fight come again and again when anybody start to talk about the best languages for the web applications. for example PHP lover will say PHP Rule! and ASP.Net fans will say chose it and forget about the others. Same for JAVA fans and so on,..

I am a PHP fan and I like it. It is free and you can code it using any text editor. you can upload it to the server and that’s it. You can also find a lot of PHP free hosting services. If you prefer to pay for a hosting company it will not cost you a lot to get a good PHP hosting company. But I should say that I find Asp.Net and Java interesting too.

But why when we like a programing language we ignore the rest? do we really think that the other programing languages are not good comparing with the one we use? or we are not really ready to change to new programing languages?

I am from the ones who don’t really want to change. I know how to program using PHP and MySql. But I don’t really try to use Ajax in my programs because I find it hard to redesign everything just for the sake of having Ajax enabled program. I ignore it for more than one year and then I relies that I should start thinking about it. You can’t hide your face one the ground and think that nobody can attack you. Because of that I plan to redesign my programing style to add some Ajax features here and there.

I used Asp.Net once when I had to do my project for one of the lectures. I try to encourage the lecturer to use the FREE PHP but he said: everyone want ASP.NET programs now and you should learn a bit about it. It wasn’t really ba. I just have to learn how to use Visual Studio which mad something take more than 5 minutes when you can make it in 2 and also make something take 30minutes done in 5 minutes. I have to forget also about coding everything and I start to learn how to use the Tools which Microsoft Upgrade one time per two or three years and you should learn it from the beginning! but it is okay to learn how to use it and program ASP.Net using C#.

I just finish my Project for one of the lectures that we should use Java as a programing language. I should use Java and Eclipse and Google Web ToolKit to produce a web Ajax enabled application. It is a great opportunity to use all of these for the first time! But I survived! yes I do it with a headache on my head at the end. Yet, I don’t do a perfect job because I don’t really like using something for the first time and it make you make some simple jobs in more than 30 minutes! when you can do it in 10-15 minutes by start coding! Also I hate the JAVA compiling thing. and the Java engine.It took a lot of my laptop resources to just run these!

But do you know! I think the problem is not in these programing languages, The problem within ourself. we don’t like to change and we like the way we are doing the job now. what about you? do you have a story to tell about changing in life?

I know. don’t be angry because I didn’t write anything for a long time ..

I don’t have to say why I didn’t write. but I can say what I am going to write about in this post.

I like programming. I like coding. But sometimes I don’t have the time and in other times I don’t have the mood to write any code. But I still like programming.

When you have time to read about this subject you may find that sometimes they differentiate between programming and coding. The Programming process as they say is the process where you think about the problem/project requirements and then develop a solution to meet the requirements.  where the coding is the process of write the code for a specific solution when you don’t have to think about the process of gathering any requirements because somebody else do that step.

Sorry, I don’t want to talk about technical stuff like that. I just want to let you know about some of my programming projects I have to do in the next months.

First of all, I have a very important project to do in next month and I hope I can do it. because I should do it from 6 months!

The second project is my coursework project using Java and Google WTK. I didn’t start yet. but I have around 15 days to do it. I hope I can finish it soon.

The third one is CMS script and I think I have the idea for it but need more time to plan for it. Maybe It will take me 3 months to do it because I done some important parts of it.

what about you? do you have any special projects to do next months?

If you are an IT guy please don’t shout on my face. It’s a book name: Does It matter? by Nicholas G. Carr.

He is talking about the IT and how some companies just implement the system because they think it will give them competitive advantage over other companies.
I don’t really start reading the book, but I am read some pages from it now. Also, I see Mr. Carr in on of the TV shows talking about his book. In some ideas I really agree with him. In others I should not agree because I am an IT guy and that what make me live .

If you want to read about the opposite viewpoint you should read this book.

Today, I will talk about “Distributed Systems”. If you few things about IT, you will probably know what I am going to talk about. If you are not an IT Guy, that is okay and I will do my best to simplify what I am going to say.

If we have a system that work from more than one source. we can say that this is a Distributed System. For Example, If we have an accountant software in one company and this software use some service like Credit Card Processing from another company in another location this is a Distributed system. even if the system don’t use any service outside the company. but it have multi computer work to make it run. This is a Distributed System.

you can read a lot of information about this topic in wikipedia :Distributed Computing.

I think that talking about e-Business is something interesting. Because of the BOOM of technology on the whole world. added to that, it is now easy for everyone to pay using credit card on the internet.

There are a lot of e-Business models. You may find one or more suitable for you even if you don’t know a lot about internet.

I will talk in the next days about these models and you can also visit my e-Business lecturer Website : Professor Linda A Macaulay. of course you will find a lot of information in her website.

see you soon.
