Welcome to my GitHub Pages where you'll find everything I've made available online. There are Posts & Blogs I've written on all things related to Software Engineering as well links to code samples and 'hobby horse' projects. You'll also find an outline of the University course I've delivered on Software Architecture & Design at MTU.
-
Software Engineering - Blogs on a wide range of software engineering and architecture topics.
-
JVM Performance Tuning - A series of blogs I wrote summarizing my experiences tuning the JVM.
Here are public repos on GitHub that are in a presentable form.
