01

Angular JS

AngularJS is a framework which boasts a wide variety of native features. It enables you to take advantage of a range of options directly, making it possible for you to commence any project faster. The architecture of AngularJS allows automatic data synchronization between its components. It comprises of an inbuilt dependency injection subsystem which enables quick and easy Angular app development and testing. It also comes with extended HTML terminologies which provide instructions for how a model can be projected into the view. It is also testable in its initial development stages.

02

React JS

React.jsis maintained by Facebook that makes use of its components on a lot of pages. It is also used by many famous websites such as Twitter, Yahoo, Airbnb, Uber, Netflix, Reddit, Pinterest, PayPal, Wix, Imgur, Udemy, Feedly, Walmart, Tumblr, Stripe and more. Its components are highly reusable and enable the use of JS to write Native IOS applications. The framework allows both servers as well as customer-side rendering. There is a virtual React DOM which randomly updates all the parts that need to be updated or have been changed. You can find a separate option for creating a pure JavaScript template. It is easy for beginners as it has a small API.

03

Node.js

Node.js can act as a server in itself rather than a framework which works with Google Chrome V8 JavaScript engine. It has a unique callback concept that enables you to achieve an entirely new concept of single-threaded event-driven server programming. Node.js can simplify the development of complicated web applications. With the capability of workload distribution to different service providers and clients, there is a lot you can extract from NodeJs.

04

Vue.js

It is a progressive framework which is mainly used for creating user interfaces. This framework mainly focuses on the view layer that enables the developers to integrate it into the on-going projects in a hassle-free manner. It is an ideal choice for building single-page applications and it provides developers with the capability to build applications with modern technologies. Vue.js has become quite popular due to its gentle learning curve and scalability. The framework can be used in single-page applications and small components on large websites. It has easy adaptability and can be integrated with bulky projects for front-end development without much difficulties.

VueJs can code robust apps without any need for external libraries and additional plugins. Due to its simple coding, it ensures better maintainability of codes that ultimately decreases the bugs and eventually saves the developers’ time that could be wasted in fixing bugs. The framework comprises of detailed documentation which is quite comprehensive so that any user who has even little knowledge of JavaScript and HTML can easily develop apps on their own.

Principles of object oriented programming

•Encapsulate what varies.

•Code to the interface, not to the implementation.

•Favor composition over inheritance.

•Strive for loosely coupled designs between objects that interact.

•Classes should be open for extension but closed for modifications.

•Depend on abstractions. Do not depend on concrete classes.

•A class should have only one reason to change.

PHP stands for Hypertext Pre-Processor. PHP is a scripting language used to develop static and dynamic webpages and web applications. Here are a few important things you must know about PHP:

PHP is an Interpreted language, hence it doesn't need a compiler.

To run and execute PHP code, we need a Web server on which PHP must be installed.

PHP is a server side scripting language, which means that PHP is executed on the server and the result is sent to the browser in plain HTML.

PHP is open source and free.

PHP is open source and free, hence you can freely download, install and start developing using it.

PHP has a very simple and easy to understand syntax, hence the learning curve is smaller as compared to other scripting languages like JSP, ASP etc.

PHP is cross platform, hence you can easily develop and move/deploy your PHP code/project to almost all the major operating systems like Windows, Linux, Mac OSX etc.

Popular Content Management Systems like Joomla, Drupal etc are developed in PHP and if you want to start your own website, you can easily do that with PHP.

With PHP, you can create static and dynamic webpages, perform file handling operations, send emails, access and modify browser cookies, and almost everything else that you might want to implement in your web project.

PHP has in-built support for MySQL, which is one of the most widely used Database management system.

It can be used to create Web applications like Social Networks(Facebook, Digg), Blogs(Wordpress, Joomla), eCommerce websites(OpenCart, Magento etc.) etc.

Comman Line Scripting. You can write PHP scripts to perform different operations on any machine, all you need is a PHP parser for this.

Create Facebook applications and easily integrate Facebook plugins in your website, using Facebook's PHP SDK.

Sending Emails or building email applications because PHP provides with a robust email sending function.

Wordpress is one of the most used blogging(CMS) platform in the World, and if you know PHP, you can try a hand in Wordpress plugin development.

Key concepts of IOT

Hardware

The heart of IoT is billions of interconnected devices with attached sensors and Actualators that sense and control the physical world.

In addition to network connectivity to transmit the data they collect these devices require some basic processing and storage capabilities provided by a micro controller Or by an integrated circuit such as a System on a Chip Or a field programmable gate array.

Embedded programming

IoT devices are embedded devices and may be prototyped using commoditized micro controller platforms such as Arduino with custom printed circuit boards developed at a later stage.

The embedded programs are often developed using c++ or c. However python and javacript are becoming more popular for prototyping IoT devices.

Security

Security is one of the most critical concerns in IoT closely related to data ethics privacy and liability with millions of new devices connected every day the number of potential points of attack grows daily.

With so much at stake security engineering skills including threat assessment ethical hacking encryption to ensure data integrity securing the network and more move to the foreground of the IoT development projects.

Networking and cloud integration

Network design and management are essential within IoT due to the sheer volume of connected devices and due to the impact that network design decisions can have at scale.

Connectivity enables devices to communicate with other as well as with applications and services that are running in the cloud.

Data analystics and prediction

The number of IoT devices transmitting data increases on the daily basis which turns big data into huge data developers will need securely and reliably ingest, store and query the vast quantities of heterogeneous data originating from these device.

Besides as many IoT devices generate latency or time sensitive data it is also necessary to filter or discard irrelevant data.

Machine Learning and AI

To deliver value and make sense of the huge volumes of data that is generated by IoT devices machine learning and Al skills are the ultimate must have skill for IoT developers.

To be truly intelligent big data analytics needs to apply cognitive computing techniques drawn from data mining, modeling, statistics, machine learning and AI.

How Compiler works in JAVA

First, the source '.java' file is passed through the compiler, which then encodes the source code into a machine-independent encoding, known as Bytecode.

While converting the source code into the bytecode, the compiler generates a '.class' file.

The main class file is passed to the Java Virtual Machine

In JVM Class Loader loads the .class file.
Bytecode Verifier then verifies the Bytecode.
Just-In-Time compiler

Finally, the computer reads this translated code and performs the tasks.
