Understanding Globally Unique Identifier (GUID)
Short for Globally Unique Identifier, a unique 128-bit number that is produced by the Windows OS or by some Windows applications to identify a particular component, application, file, database entry, and/or user. For instance, a Web site may generate a GUID and assign it to a user's browser to record and track the session. A GUID is also used in a Windows registry to identify COM DLLs. Knowing where to look in the registry and having the correct GUID yields a lot information about a COM object (i.e., information in the type library, its physical location, etc.). Windows also identifies user accounts by a username (computer/domain and username) and assigns…

Understanding this environment, how it works and what it is composed of will allow you to build better apps and be well-prepared for potential issues that might arise once your apps are released into the wild.

What is URL Encoding and How does it work?
You may think that a "valid" URL is self-evident, but that's not quite the case. A URL entered within an address bar in a browser, for example, may contain special characters (e.g. "上海+中國"); the browser needs to internally translate those characters into a different encoding before transmission. By the same token, any code that generates or accepts UTF-8 input might treat URLs with UTF-8 characters as "valid", but would also need to translate those characters before sending them out to a web server. This process is called URL-encoding or percent-encoding.

14 Tips for Writing Spring MVC Controllers
In this article, I'm going to share with you some of the fundamental techniques and best practices for writing a controller class with the Spring MVC framework. Typically, in Spring MVC, we write a controller class to handle requests coming from the client. Then, the controller invokes a business class to process business-related tasks, and then redirects the client to a logical view name, which is resolved by Spring’s dispatcher servlet in order to render results or output. That completes a round trip of a typical request-response cycle.
