This post aims at explaining the component model proposed by Microsoft, namely, Component Object Model (COM). This technology of Operating Systems enables software components to communicate with each other. The component model evolved from clipboards, which evolved to DDE. OLE 2.0 removed the defects in DDE and later OLE evolved into COM. To enable communication between components in a distributed environment, DCOM was proposed.
The technology proposed by Microsoft to support distributed commerce application is called as Microsoft Destributed Component Architecture (MDCA). MDCA lays out the rules governing software components and their usage in complex commerce system. MDCA uses distributed COM (DCOM) technology.
Microsoft provides COM interfaces for many Windows application programming interfaces such as Direct Show, Media Foundation, Packaging API, Windows Animation Manager, Windows Portable Devices, and Microsoft Active Directory (AD).
COM is used in applications such as the Microsoft Office Family of products. For example COM OLE technology allows Word documents to dynamically link to data in Excel spreadsheets and COM Automation allows users to build scripts in their applications to perform repetitive tasks or control one application from another.
Evolution of DCOM
Initially, clipboard was used as a fundamental method of sharing data between applications on Windows. By using clipboards, the user can copy data from the data provider application onto the data consumer application. Read the rest of this entry »

MacPaw, who used to work on Mac's system utilities, has released a brand-new software CleanMyPC for PC maintenance, a "brother" product of its well-known Mac utility CleanMyMac.
As a veteran PC user, I'm quite familiar with kinds of system utilities. No matter which version of Windows you are using, a maintenance tool is necessary, which can help you avoid frequently crashes and running slow down. CleanMyPC, just as its name implies, will clean up your PC and keep it in a great condition in a very easy way.
After a short installation, the main interface of CleanMyPC emerged to me. It's a blue and well-designed interface. For the first step to clean and optimize your PC, CleanMyPC provides an overall scan for the computer's C: drive. The scan is totally safe and not removing anything. The left sidebar of the window consists of two main parts, "My computer" and "Utilities". During the scan, the four categories in "My computer" will be referred.
Among these four items, two of them are a little new to me that I seldom took notice of before, the "Help files" and "Extra Languages". Although the unneeded files of these two items are not a big amount, CleanMyPC offers more options in different aspects for you to manage your disk space. You can personalize to choose which help file or language to keep and delete after scanning. Read the rest of this entry »
