Technical Overview of the CLR

Hi again, and welcome to my blog. In this episode i'll talk about the article named technical overview of the Common Language Runtime. An article written by Erik Meijer and Jim Miller. Click on the next link to read it: http://34.212.143.74/s201911/tc3048/clr.pdf.
Hope you enjoy it :)

The main topic of the article is the difference between Common Language Interface, its acroniy CLI, and the Java Virtual Machine, that is JVM. The CLI develop system which allows programs (of different programming language) to be run on different devices. CLI includes Common Type System and Common Language Specification. So you can ignore the programming language where the program is written, because with the use of IL, Intermediate Language, where programs will be compiled. Then it will be compiled by the Common Language Runtime(CLR) to the target machine language. About the Java Virtual Machine, it executes Java programs, which first they are compiled with the intermediate language called Bytecode to then be executed on the platfotm JVM has.

Another important thing on this article, is the introduction to the concepts assembly and intermediate language, that in summary intermediate language are like generic language which can interact with th assembly, and that, is practically what CLI is. Away from the title,  This also include the introduction to what CLI and JVM are, and the exposition of new concepts. At the end, i think CLI is more useful because it envolves a complete solution to some problems both have to face, and that makes it very interesting. if you want to know about this problems or to know about the article more deeply, please go and read the article with the link I provided at almos the beginning of the blog. Bye.

The hundred-year language

This time, i´'ll talk about "The hundred-year language". an article made by Paul Graham. The main idea of this article, is like to guess how the programming language could be in one hundred years in the future. so, can you imagine how programming language could be in a hundred years or more, from now? Well, that's a really difficult question, because well, we arr talking about predicting future is difficult. People, countries, technogoly and a lot of thing can change in a few years, and when someone puts on the table a hundred years, i cant even imagine. But Paul Graham talks about which language could disappear sooner. A language Paul mention is Java and I've read that Java is slowly dying, so the author could be correct. For a language to "survive", has an option an it is  to combine with another newer. A problem for language, is that they are very slowly to improve because they are not a technology by themselves. An important think Paul mentione

Hi. My name is Marco Isaac Buendía Mejía. I am 22 years old. I'm studying the carrier Computer Systems Engineering at Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey. I live in Tecámac, but because my house is far from the school, I moved to an apartment. My hobbies are play videogames, watch anime series, play card games and climbing. But the last one, since I had an accident, I decide to leave the activity for a time. My future plan is to find a work in Japan and buy a house there. For that, I'm studying Japanese language.

Internals of GCC

This time, Internals of GCC is a new type of activity in this course, because now it is not an article to read, it is now a podcast recorded by Software Engineering Radio with Morgan Deters as guest. If you like to hear poadcasts click on the next link to go to the page, tso you can hear it: www.se-radio.net/2007/07/episode-61-internals-of-gcc/. Hope you like it. :) The topic of the poscast is about software engineering, but mainly compiling. The process of it, the parts and what they like about GCC. The speaker starts to talk about how the compiler composes, and he explained that compilers have three parts: front-end, middle-end and back-end, that are the one that translate raw code to trees, optimizes and process all data that has come between all that phases. An important thing that was discussed is that Gcc is a portable compiler that can create different outputs for some processors where the compiler has been used, a powerful strength for GCC, because is capable to compile program
