NLP and Data Science – are they related?

10/12/2018: Natural Language Processing is right at the cutting-edge of Artificial Intelligence, and the handling of data is critical to its success. Computers, as you know, thrive on standardised instructions and structured data – and natural language, with all its nuances and subtleties, is anything but that. It has been developed by humans over thousands of years and involves a complex range of words, sayings and idioms. Data science plays a key role in transforming that unstructured data so that computers can process it. So yes, NLP and data science are absolutely related. Let’s explore NLP in...

Containerized Applications training course

Containerized Applications - faster Development?

07/11/2018: Containerized applications are becoming very popular and it’s easy to understand why. They provide so many benefits to organisations, especially when it comes to bringing new applications to market. Let’s look at some of the benefits here, using Docker and Kubernetes as examples. Faster development Docker containers package up software and its dependencies into self-contained units that contain everything it needs to run (code, runtime, systems tools, system libraries and settings). This guarantees that the application will always run consistently and reliably – no matter what computing...

React vs React Native ...

26/10/2018: React.js (also known as React or ReactJS) is a popular JavaScript library for building user interfaces. Originally developed by Facebook, it was heavily influenced by Facebook’s XHP, an HTML component framework for PHP. The technology has been open-sourced since 2013. React is used to create large, fast and scalable web applications. It uses Virtual DOM and a diffing algorithm for rendering, and allows developers to create applications where data that changes over time can be viewed without reloading the page. The diffing engine makes DOM manipulation extremely fast – faster even than...

Machine Learning – can it help your organisation?

26/10/2018: Many organisations today use Big Data to understand their customers, analyse trends and make smarter decisions. The challenge, of course, is that the sheer scale and complexity of the data can make it very difficult to analyse – especially in real time. That’s where Machine Learning comes in. It’s a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that Data Scientists use for analysing data and making predictions from it. Machine Learning algorithms identify data patterns and make decisions with minimal human intervention. But more than that – they learn from the experience and get better over...

Kotlin - Latest Developments

06/08/2018: Kotlin develops quickly! Last year brought us many changes and possibilities. Both in the community and in the language. Let’s summarize them.

C# Language - Moving Forward

31/07/2018: Since the first release of .NET (in 2002) much has changed, both in the .NET Framework and the .NET languages. Notable language features added over the years include support for Generics and Lambdas. In terms of languages usage C# appears to be gaining dominance compared to VB.NET, although resulting in some organisations needing to port to C# as VB.NET developers become more scarce. In recent years there have been smaller, but important additions to the C# languages. The notably C# 6 feature of 'string interpolation' has made creating strings so much easier. Meanwhile C# 7 has added...

Agile & Scrum - Some thoughts...

31/07/2018: There have been some exciting developments in Agile over the past few years, especially around requirements and user stories. Story Mapping, a technique developed by Jeff Patton, allows the business and development teams to visualise the completeness of the Product Backlog, prioritise against business objectives, and to carve out minimal viable releases. Story maps work equally well at the Sprint level as they can be used to drive out goals for upcoming sprints because they naturally group related functionality into themes. If that wasn’t enough to pique your interest, they also provide...
