Here is a link to my presentation at the last CoE-Telkom Industry Seminar, which took place here at the University of Cape Town. It was at the presentation that I was asked about the Google Wave, which I blogged on some days ago.

Frameworks in Programming Context
In programming context, we can see a framework as a standard (De jure) that newer things can EMERGE from. It is excepted that such newer things must have obeyed the set rules/standards. Then we can say framework provides us with reusable components. Another keywords that I have come across is distribution system when reading about frameworks. In programming, we have come across emormous frameworks such PEAR, DotNetNuke, PHPNuke, CAKEPHP, SMARTY and recently ZEND.
I observed that some are specifically needed to accomplish certain tasks like portal development. In this case, we can talk of DNN(DotNetNuke). But it is different in the case of PEAR. One may need PEAR to develop his custom application. This is different from out-of-box solutions like DNN. I see ZEND in the same direction with PEAR.
In conclusion, portal frameworks are out-of-box solutions for web portal development. And these include DNN, PHPNUKE, PLONE while custom-based application frameworks include PEAR, ZEND, SMARTY and CAKEPHP to mention a few.
What comes to my mind is that a custom-based application framework like ZEND, PEAR can be used to generate new portal framework or other frameworks.
If that is the case, expect emmmm…. : A framework for multichannel application using single authoring soon.
Will talk more on that in future.
Thanks.
why have I re-activated my blog?
In a bid to keep record of all i do, i remembered that i created this blog wayback October 2004 during my National Youth Corp Service (NYSC). I couldn’t keep diary but will keep to this e-diary. Precisely two years after creation and abandonment, it is time i keep track of progress in my career, relationships, and experiences.
From Professor Iya Abubakar Community Resource Centre, Bauchi where i created this blog till date that I am updating it in Microwave Laboratory, Covenant University, Ota, series of developments have been made, straight-through records set, and sober reflections forgotten.
I will endeavour to connect the past to the present and the future in the course of using this blog now. You are welcome if by chance you got to this blog of mine.
