When a Linux system is booted, we want certain processes to run immediately. In the old days, that is 25 years ago or so, this was done in „BSD-style“ by having certain magical shell scripts that start everything in the right order. When adding another service, this just had to be added to the shell …

How do we use Perl and Java together? Unlike many other languages, that for example run in the JVM, it is not particularly easy to combine them. But that is not the idea. A good starting point is thinking about houses and furniture. While it is perfectly possible to build houses of wood or furniture …

We often read that code reviews are a good idea. Bugs can be found, people are encouraged to keep to team standards, know-how is spread in both directions and code becomes more maintainable. Also it helps sharing responsibility. So basically the time spent for the code reviews is well spent and increases the long term …
The goal of spline approximation has already been explained in the previous article „Spline Approximation (Introduction)„. This article will cover the mathematics behind this approximation and develop an approach. If you do not care about the mathematics, just skip this article and read the Spline Approximation (Cookbook)“, that will come soon. Spline Interpolation We have …

We sometimes encounter a situation where a number of points with coordinates are given and we want to find a function such that for all of these points we have (interpolation) or (approximation). Most often we say that we want on average to be as small as possible and for whatever reasons usually the quadratic …
