ABC J2ME Client

We just finished our Pervasive Computing project. In the project we have implemented a small ABC-client (an Activity-Based Computing component) for the J2ME environment. The implementation is based around a small core framework which handles communication with the ABC-server (through the simple abcp protocol) and the execution of applications running services in the active activities. ABC applications (implementing ABC services) can then be written in the framework and deployed on MIDP 2.0 enabled mobile phones.

What a weekend

Oh, what a weekend! Friday night at about 02:30 we woke up to the sound of sirens. A fire had broken out in our building and there were very bad smelling smoke coming out of one of the apartments. The fire started in a 51 years old man’s apartment. His neighbours found him in his kitchen but he was badly burned and smoke poisoned. Even the man’s poor cat got poisoned by the smoke and had to be rescued.

The next morning we found our car with the side window smashed in with a brick and the car radio stolen… And the worst part is, that the car window is much more expensive than the cheap radio that was stolen… fools!
