The ServiceLocator Pattern: Does EJB 3 Really Kill It Off? (2005)
ABSTRACT:Soon, ServiceLocator will be replaced by Dependency Injection (also known as Inversion of Control) type annotations in EJB 3. However, as these annotations won’t be available to helper classes like current JNDI lookups are, the ServiceLocator singleton might still be around even after EJB 3’s release. With EJB3 fast approaching, are JNDI’s days numbered in enterprise development? Brandon Werner takes a look at whether IoC will put the final nail in the coffin - from commentary by JavaLobby
How to Save JEE, And It’s Not EJB 3.0 (2005)
ABSTRACT:‘SOA is bigger than Java,’ says Brandon Werner, which is why BEA, IBM and the rest ‘aren’t even submitting their SOA ideas to the JCP at all,’ he contends. ‘In a world where we are moving to a SOA style of implementing business processes and modeling business needs into the architecture, we must stop thinking in terms of concrete technology (faster bubble sort, smoother scrolling) and start thinking in terms of patterns and methodologies that best address the problem we are solving.’ - from commentary by JDJ

Building Ontological Data From Lists For Semantic Processing (2006)
ABSTRACT: This paper explores using functional procedures for enhancing extraction of semantic relationships by presenting a language for information extraction and relationship building through macros, Applying research from Eugene Agichtein & Silviu Cucerzan regarding predicting performance of relational extraction tasks (RE), it may be possible to greatly enhance relationship processing given the inherent benefits of a functional approach.
