Face recognition in RIA applications

Face recognition is exciting machine learning task which during the last decade has brought some good results, used mainly in security applications to perform person identification. However it used to be reserved only to university research and implemented only by companies specializing in this field. But the time invested into this field by universities, companies and independent developers has brought its result in the means of several open-source libraries which any developer can use to perform image processing tasks including face recognition. Take a look…

Déployer les applications .NET sur cloud

Un de nos derniers projet de recherche et développement a été le développement d'une application de banque en ligne, qui nous a permis d'expérimenter les dernières tendances de développement sur la plateforme .NET. Quand est venu le moment de déployer l'application, nous n'avions pas de machine disponible. Mais attendez, de nos jours, lorsque l'on a besoin de déployer une application, on peux simplement la publier sur le cloud le plus proche ! Evidemment, nous avons choisi la plateforme Azure. La question était juste de savoir…

Taking .NET applications to the Cloud

One of our latest  research and development projects has been an online banking application, which we use to demonstrate the latest tendencies in .NET development. When it came to deployment, we could not find a suitable machine to publish the application. But wait, these days that’s not a problem any more. When you need to deploy a new application you can just publish it to the nearest cloud! The choice obviously came to Azure platform. The question was just how painful the deployment will be?…
