The Author
This is the personal blog of David Valcárcel Romeu.
I was born some time ago in Granollers, and my passports state that I am Spanish and Australian; but what has shaped me as I am so far, are the people I met in some incredible places such as Queensland, Catalonia, Spain, Occitania,
Poland and Luxembourg, where I have been living since 2006.
For as far as I can remember, I have always been intrigued by Computer Science, and (almost) everything that goes with it.
The Content
In my short professional career so far, I have been lucky enough to work on very different projects in Spain, France, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.
Whether I worked for a Fortune 500 company, a public institution or a individual; with experienced professionals or not so experienced; on a simple webapp or a complex distributed transactional system; on a small domain, or a large one…none of the projects could escape the inevitable truth:
Building high quality I.T. systems is extremely difficult to achieve and implies a huge amount of effort and passion on a daily basis by everybody involved, from project genesis to production deployment, and from maintenance to the inevitable project mutations.
In the field of computer science engineering, the expression ‘never a dull day’ is truly fulfilled, which makes blogging the perfect communication channel for sharing my experiences and ideas, plus any other random thoughts along the way.
The Technicalities
