JDL is a trading name of John Deacon. I have been providing IT and security services for over 25 years now
I specialize in training
and consulting in object-oriented and
distributed technologies with an aim of:
- successfully mastering and adopting object technology;
- mastering software engineering methods, notations and CASE tools such that they serve a project, rather than intrude upon or end up dominating a project;
- choosing an implementation language and infrastructure -- my
usual list of candidates being Java, Smalltalk, C++ and CORBA;
- understanding and working with the strengths, weaknesses and
dangers of the chosen technologies;
- solidly establishing the considerations, techniques and forces
that drive object design;
- establishing the distribution strategy (including the possibility
of no distribution at all);
- achieving location, language and operating system transparency
with Enterprise Java (J2EE), CORBA or CORBA/DCOM bridging, as
appropriate;
- establishing the strategy and tactics for achieving any required
object persistence.
I have worked with all manner of systems. Much of my work, at the
moment, is with the high-energy physics and astronomy
community.
I am also one of the founders of Matrice
(formerly Lattice Limited).
Information about matters other than training and mentoring, including
books (Object-Oriented
Analysis and Design), book support and resources (such as a UML guide), is over at www.johndeacon.net
