WEB-INF is a private folder we can't read its content without web.xml, but using annitations we are removing web.xml, in this case how can server read WEB-INF data with out web.xml
Relevant answer
Answer
In modern Java web applications, the need for a web.xml file has been significantly reduced with the introduction of Java Servlet 3.0 specification and the use of annotations. With annotations, you can configure your web application without relying on a web.xml file.
Regarding your question about reading the content of the WEB-INF folder without a web.xml file, it's important to understand that the WEB-INF folder is still considered private and inaccessible from the client side. The server is responsible for serving the contents of the WEB-INF folder to the application but not directly to the client.
Here's how the server can still access the content of the WEB-INF folder without relying on a web.xml file:
1. Annotation-based Configuration: Instead of using a web.xml file, you can use annotations to configure your web application. For example, you can use annotations like `@WebServlet`, `@WebFilter`, or `@WebListener` to declare servlets, filters, and listeners directly in your Java classes.
2. Deployment Descriptors: Although annotations are the preferred method for configuration, you can still use deployment descriptors in the absence of a web.xml file. Deployment descriptors are XML files that describe the configuration of your web application. The server can read these deployment descriptors to understand how to handle requests and manage resources. The deployment descriptor file is typically named `web.xml`, but you can specify a different file name using the `metadata-complete` attribute in the `web-app` element.
3. Default Configuration: In the absence of explicit configuration, the server may apply default settings and conventions to handle requests and manage resources. For example, it may automatically map URLs to servlets based on class names or use default servlet mappings.
Although annotations and default configurations provide ways to configure your web application without a web.xml file, the server still enforces the private nature of the WEB-INF folder. The contents of the WEB-INF folder, such as JSP files, configuration files, and class files, are not directly accessible to clients but are accessible to the server and other components of the application.
The use of annotations and other configuration mechanisms allows for more flexible and streamlined configuration of web applications, reducing the reliance on a web.xml file while still maintaining the proper access controls for the WEB-INF folder.
Good luck

Hey everyone,
I am looking for metrics which I can use to evaluate any mobile application, there are many heuristics and design principles available for the websites to evaluate their usability. However, I did not encounter such heuristics for the mobile Apps, in addition, the uniqueness and the nature of the mobile Apps User interface make it harder to apply what I saw in the web design principles.
Any recommendations for papers which did a usability evaluation on Mobile Apps?

Are there software tools that help web developers to create metadata using schema.org vocabularies? do web developers need metadata training for creating those metadata?
Relevant answer
Answer
Hi, since the introduction in 2011 the adoption of schema.org seems to have been a little slow at the beginning (Homoceanu et al., 2014). However, the adoption of schema.org have increased probably because it was pushed by Yahoo!, Google, and Bing (later joined by Yandex), see Guha et al. 2016 and Paulheim, 2015. Guha et al. reported that 31.3% of their sample pages used Schema.org as markup, they say that a key driver for the adoption is the extensive support from third-party tools such as Drupal and Word-press extensions and support from vertical-specific content-management systems (such as Bandsintown and Ticketmaster).
One paper that describes the problem of implementing and the designing of website schema.org was written by Tort and Olivé. On the websites I have helped implement schema.org, scripts are used to generate the code using schema.org as a reference and parsers as extracting tools to verify it. Google, Yahoo! and others provide tools to verify the structured data on homepages.

The terms “dependability”‎ and “security”‎ have been used interchangeably to describe the properties of secure and trusted software.
However, the extant literature shows that dependability attributes are considered as the cure for security threats, abnormal behavior and untrustworthy issues in a software system.
A system is considered dependable when it can be depended on to produce the consequences for which it was designed, with no adverse effect in its intended environment. Dependability comprises several attributes that imply availability, confidentiality, integrity, reliability, safety, and maintainability.
Methods and tools to attain the dependability attributes have been discussed in details in my previous publications.
I hope this can help you. Good luck.

Answer
I would like to suggest you, not to publish sensitive research data in "free" "cloud" storages as dropbox. All content stored in dropbox is fully available to economy spies like e.g. security agencies. Your paper may not be rejected, because it was published just ago by someone else. But anything stored in the dropbox is like published.
You may ask at your research facility / university, if there is an "in house" cloud storage solution. If not, you may suggest this to an admin there.
It is also possible, to set up your own cloud, using open source projects like owncloud.org - even on a raspberry pie...
Research costs money - so spreading your results for free to anyone - you don't loose your results - but did you really want to spread them at this moment of your progress?

In the early 2000s several methods were proposed for designing hypermedia applications (i.e. OOHDM).
Navigation through the application/processes workflow design is not trivial in hypermedia applications as web design has proven along those years.
In spite of most current web development frameworks relying on MVC, components and even solve routing quite decently, I still find a lack of abstractions in the navigation design layer (in industry).
So can anyone address me with current trends in the field, probably more in the research area than in industry?

I studied that NAND gate occupy less area than NOR gate. I need explanation or proof why it so?
Although in NAND gate pmos are in parallel and in NOR they are in series, so NAND gate is faster than NOR. 
Relevant answer
Answer
It depends on your desing or gate library....
1) Both NAND2 and NOR2 gates have four transistors each one. Therefore, if you set equal W and L for all transistors, both gates will occupy exactly the same area. However, timing behavior would be very different (for rise and fall transitions).
2) To make lage digital circuits, ussulay a gate library is used. The gate library has information about each gate that can be used in the circuit along with its timing behavior (delays) . To design (set W and L of transistors in each standard gate) the gate library, an inverter gate  with minimum area but...  that has balanced (equal)  rise and fall delay is taken as design reference.  This means that the other gates (including nand and nor gates)  are designed in such way that their delays match with  this simetrical inverter.
3)  Remember that mobility of PMOS  is less than mobilty of NMOS, thus, to match rise and fall delays in the inverter, on-resistances of each transistor should be similar:   Tfall=RnCL   =  Trise= Rp*CL. The mobility differences is conmpenstated making Inverter PMOS greater than NMOS (lets said twice).
Then, simetrical inverter has:  Wp=Wmin x 2   ;   Wn= Wmin  
4)   The NMOS  stack arrangement in NAND gate and the PMOS stack arrangement in NOR gate are  sized up twice to match NAND and NOR gates delay with reference inverter delay.   Therefore, we have:
for inverter (ref):   Wp=Wmin x 2 ; Wn= Wmin
for nand:                Wp=Wmin x 2 ;Wn= Wmin x 2 
for nor:                    Wp=(Wmin x 2) x 2   ; Wn= Wmin
5)    Areas are:  
  Ainv= (Wp+Wn)* L  = 3 Wmin L
 Anand= (2Wp+2Wn)* L= 8 Wmin L
  Anor= (2Wp+2Wn)* L =  10 Wmin L
As can be seen,  NOR area is greater than NAND area  if a balanced timing behavior is required.

I am trying to show one image in pop up portion in a div. It's quite easy & it's showing in Mozilla Firefox and opera, but it's not showing in google chrome & related servers like Chromium, Comodo Dragon, etc.
It's also not showing in Safari and IE.
Guys It's really an unusual problem that I've never faced.
The I give absolute path on the image portion and the popup is showing in facebox By jQuery.
Note: I am using HTML 5
I explain Below....
1) This is the div::::::::::
___________________
<div id="info3" style="display:none;">

</div>
</div>
</div>
_____________________________________
TO show this div in a popup window,I call jQuery
______________________________________
like :----
window.onbeforeunload = function(e){
//alert('uuuuuu');
$.facebox($("#info3").html());
// window.onbeforeunload = '';
return "Do you want to Quit";
}
To know facebox I have provided two links here.
The Images are perfectly showing in firefox and opera but, it's not showing in Chrome, Safari and IE.
To investigate this problem, I am using firbug. The html is clearly good, but the portion showing the status of the images is pending whether the status of the images are 200K (Connected Successfully).
To help me to solve the problem...

Wanted to know any popular eCommerce architectural styles which can be implemented practically.
Relevant answer
Answer
Dear Prashant,
There are various eCommerce architectures available; perhaps a starting point would be to determine which approach best addresses the projects needs. Option 1 could be to utilize a turnkey eCommerce solution such as “OsCommerce” or “Zen Cart”. Option two could be a custom build application; this may be a costly proposition for some, however the advantages of complete control of the cart and functionality may be justifiable. The third option, and perhaps the most common, would be the modification of a turnkey eCommerce solution to address the needs of your organization.
Once you have identified which approach is aligned with the business needs of the company, it will make the process of evaluating eCommerce architectures that much easier.

1. Does a highly available IT hardware Infrastructure with sound disaster recovery plans and redundancy, guarantee high availability on the software?
2. Is there a model for designing Highly available Enterprise Software end to end solutions?
Relevant answer
Answer
Yes, there are models for that but you need to realize that there are different threats and failure modes you might want to protect against. Things can get quite complex very quickly when you mix HA and FT.
In the simplest form, FT H/W can mitigate faults that are bounded to a single machine. RAID storage arrays can mitigate faults bound to physical media. Then HA clusters can address faults bounded to a comprehensive FT machine or a network.
Then you can get into hybrid models, using HA clusters of FT nodes. Ideally, you would want to do so with a heterogeneous OS, to avoid the case where running code hits a driver error causing a crash of Node A. If the same OS/App load is then restored on Node B it is possible for Node B to crash after executing the same instruction set.
If you would like to go one step further you can also add HA Geo units, which are geographically distributed to avoid data center failure. The complexity and investment are unbounded, so it really comes down to what s the cost of downtime and how much of an investment makes sense to prevent that service outage.
Hope that gives you a sense of the possibilities out there.
