and/or Scalability Optimization.-
July 6, 2009 -- ODBMS.ORG, a vendor-independent non-profit group of high-profile software experts
lead by Prof. Roberto V. Zicari, today announced that Adrian Marriott, Principal Consultant,
Progress Software Inc., was awarded the ODBMS.ORG Awards for the best Common Persistent Model
Patterns for Performance and/or Scalability Optimization, for his pattern "Query Visitor".
“Query Visitor represents a query to be performed on the elements of a
persistent object structure. Query Visitor allows you to define new result set formats without
changing the underlying persistent object model, and avoids polluting the persistent classes with
rendering logic.”, explains Adrian Marriott.
The Awards ceremony took place on July 2, 2009, at ETH in Zurich, at the evening reception of
the International Conference on Object Databases (ICOODB).
Query Visitor and all 25 persistent patterns submitted are available for
free download.
