When application object files and executable binary files become unhandily large, it is helpful to be able to see inside such files. In order to do that it is necessary to know what tools are called for in such an inquiry and which parts can be reduced in size. In her oracle.com/technetwork post Miriam Blatt discusses these issues, reviewing the contents of binaries and the tools that are available to read, extract and delete sections. She concludes with a discussion of the effect on binary file size of compiler flags and how to reduce the size of the executable.

In his 27 minute video on Java EE 6 Using WebLogic 12c, NetBeans, and MySQL Arun Gupta shows how to develop and deploy a Java EE 6 application on WebLogic 12c using NetBeans. It builds a simple application using Java Persistence API 2.0, Enterprise JavaBeans 3.1, Servlets 3.0, Java API for RESTful Web Services 1.1, Java Server Faces 2.0, and Contexts & Dependency Injection 1.0. The video also explains how to configure MySQL database in NetBeans and use it for accessing the database tables in the Java EE 6 applications.

With the release of Oracle Studio 12.3, enterprise developers will find it possible to use the new Code Analysis tool to quickly detect application vulnerabilities, including memory leaks and memory access violations, improving application quality and reliability. Furthermore, the release accelerates performance of SPARC T4 and x86-based applications up to 300 percent by leveraging Oracle’s advanced compiler technology. Developers will also find it convenient that Oracle Solaris Studio 12.3’s built-in remote access capabilities, makes it possible to create Oracle Solaris or Linux applications easily, whether from Oracle Solaris, Linux, Windows, or Mac OS desktops.

Oracle Solaris Studio 12.3, Oracle's advanced C, C++ and Fortran development tool suite, delivers accelerated application performance of up to 300% on Oracle Systems. The release provides extreme application observability and enhances developer productivity. Oracle Solaris Studio 12.3 is optimized for Oracle Solaris, Oracle Linux, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating systems to deliver up to 300% faster SPARC T4 and up to 150% faster x86-based applications with Oracle Solaris Studio C, C++ and Fortran compilers, Terri Wischmann blogs. Users can perform remote development of server-applications from any Oracle Solaris, Linux, Microsoft Windows or Mac OS desktop.

Dr. John Feo summarizes his findings on two dozen personal codes: those written by single users or small research groups for their own use and not otherwise distributed. For all but two of these programs, Feo writes, it was possible to improve single processor performance by margins of from 2x to 15.5x with a simple average of 4.75x. Feo concludes that personal scientific research codes are highly inefficient and not running parallel chiefly because developers are unaware of simple optimization techniques. His recommendation is to require graduate students to take a semester length course in optimization and parallel programming.
