Normally smartphone events are tightly coupled to your phone device itself. When your cell phone is ringing, your phone speaker plays a ringtone. When you get a new text message, your phone displays it on its screen. Wouldn't it be thrilling to make thoses phone events visible somewhere else, on your wearable, in your living room, on your robot, in your office or where ever you want it to occur? Or would you like to use your smartphone sensors, like the accelerometer, light sensor, compass or your touchscreen to control other devices? 'android meets arduino' is a toolkit, basically consisting of an Android application and an Arduino library which will help you to interface with your phone in a new dimension. You can build your own interfaces almost without any programming experience.
Apache Shiro is a powerful and easy-to-use security framework that performs authentication, authorization, cryptography, and session management.

Hazelcast is an open source clustering and highly scalable data distribution platform for Java, which is:
* Lightening-fast; thousands of operations/sec.
* Fail-safe; no losing data after crashes.
* Dynamically scales as new servers added.
* Super-easy to use; include a single jar.
Hazelcast is pure Java. JVMs that are running Hazelcast will dynamically cluster. Although by default Hazelcast will use multicast for discovery, it can also be configured to only use TCP/IP for environments where multicast is not available or preferred.

Buoy is a library for creating user interfaces in Java programs. It is built on top of Swing, but provides a completely new set of classes to represent graphical components. It offers many advantages over using Swing directly, including:
* A much simpler, cleaner, and more consistent API
* A better mechanism for laying out interface components
* A far more powerful event handling mechanism, which is based on dynamic binding of arbitrary methods as event listeners
* Built in support for serializing user interfaces as XML, then reconstructing them again
Other important features of Buoy include:
* It forms a "transparent wrapper" around Swing. It hides the complexity of Swing when you don't want to deal with it, but doesn't get in your way when you actually need that complexity.
* It is very small and efficient. The entire compiled library is only 200 K.
* It is written entirely in Java, and works on any JVM that is compatible with J2SE 1.4 or later.
* All source code is in the public domain.
