For more than a year now, EASYTEAM and Cinchéo have been working on a project that aims at creating new methods and tools to help IT departments to control the carbon footprint linked to digital services. It is a vast and complicated topic and a lot needs to be achieved. With MC2 (say M-C-square), we are contributing a small and modest part to the tooling ecosystem. In this post, I will explain the principles of MC2 and how it works. The source code is fully available on Github: https://github.com/cincheo/mc2. NOTE: MC2 it is still work in progress and is a

When I was a teenager, I used to go to the center of Paris to buy specific parts to build my PC myself: sound cards, video cards, power blocks, hard drive, CPU, fans, memory, you name it. Not only it was fun and instructive, but it was also good for the planet.

For those of you who think that Data Anonymization and being GDPR-compliant is just a matter of wiping out the names and other obvious info, unfortunately it is not that easy.

Quite recently, I had the chance to discuss with Philippe de Reffye, a French researcher who spent his life studying how plants grow. He built a generic mathematical model that can simulate the growth of any plant, assuming we can mesure some environmental parameters to calibrate the model. He wrote a very complete book about it (in French). The interesting point from my perspective is that his work managed to lower the computational complexity of simulating plant growth from an exponential to a linear function. What would take days to calculate can now be done in seconds, and it grows

A real-life example of migrating a Java application to JavaScript. In this post, I will explain how JSweet helps building the online JavaScript Web version of an Open-Source interior design application called Sweet Home 3D developed and maintained by Emmanuel Puybaret. Sweet Home 3D represents 130K Java Lines of Code (LoC). Amongst these, Emmanuel and I are able to transpile automatically around 50K LoC, leading to 68K JavaScript-generated LoC (by automatic transpilation, I mean that the generated JavaScript code can be run in the browser as is, without any manual adaptation of the code).

A transpiler is an Open Transpiler if programmers can open the hood of the transpiler and tune it for their own needs. In this post, I will explain what it means exactly, why we need it, and how it works. I’ll end up showing some specific JSweet v2 examples.

We are pleased to announce that JSweet 2 is now available. JSweet 2 is the outcome of several months of intense work with several partners that have been using JSweet for different purposes. It brings to you major improvements in the way you can transpile your Java code to JavaScript. Here are the main changes: More interoperability with JavaScript. By default the generated code gets rid of Java APIs and uses pure JavaScript objects (for instance Java lists and maps will translate to pure JavaScript arrays/objects). No Java runtime is required anymore (on contrary to other Java to JavaScript transpilers)

We are pleased to announce stable release 1.2.0. This release contains many bug fixes and new features. It takes into account our last-months experience developing real IONIC/Cordova applications with JSweet, but also many excellent feedback from the community (many thanks to the reporters!). Also, it is compatible with Angular 2. Check the release notes.

That’s official! JSweet allows using Java to write Angular 2 applications. It even was presented at JavaOne in the following talk: Full-Stack Java with JSweet, Angular 2, PrimeNG, and JAX-RS, by Kito D. Mann. JavaOne 2016.
