What is Globalization? What are the steps to follow to get user's culture at run time?

What is Globalization?
Globalization is the process of creating an application that meets the needs of users from multiple cultures. This process involves translating the user interface elements of an application into multiple languages, using the correct currency, date and time format, calendar, writing direction, sorting rules, and other issues. Accommodating these cultural differences in an application is called localization.
The Microsoft .NET Framework simplifies localization tasks substantially by making its formatting, date/time, sorting, and other classes culturally aware. Using classes from the System.Globalization namespace, you can set the application’s current culture, and much of the work is done automatically!

What are the 3 different ways to globalize web applications?
Detect and redirect approach : In this approach we create a separate Web application for each supported culture, and then detect the user’s culture and redirect the request to the appropriate application. This approach is best for applications with lots of text content that requires translation and few executable components.
Run-time adjustment approach : In this approach we create a single Web application that detects the user’s culture and adjusts output at run time using format specifiers and other tools. This approach is best for simple applications that present limited amounts of content.
Satellite assemblies approach : In this approach we create a single Web application that stores culture-dependent strings in resource files that are compiled into satellite assemblies. At run time, detect the user’s culture and load strings from the appropriate assembly. This approach is best for applications that generate content at run time or that have large executable components.

What is Tracing and what are the advantages of using tracing to log exceptions?

What is Tracing and what are the advantages of using tracing to log exceptions?
Answer: Tracing is a technique for recording events, such as exceptions, in an application. There have always been ways to record errors in an application - usually by opening a file and writing error messages to it. But tracing offers the following significant advantages:
Standardization:Building tracing into the .NET Framework ensures that programming techniques are the same across all the applications you develop with the .NET Framework.
Built-in Web support:ASP.NET extends the .NET Framework tools by including information related to the performance and behavior of Web requests.
Configuration:You can turn tracing on and off using settings in your application’s configuration file. You don’t have to recompile your application to enable or disable tracing.
Performance:While disabled, tracing statements do not affect application performance.

Garbage collection in .NET

.Net is the much hyped revolutionary technology gifted to the programmer's community by Microsoft. Many factors make it a must use for most developers. In this article we would like to discuss one of the primary advantages of .NET framework - the ease in memory and resource management.
Every program uses resources of one sort or another-memory buffers, network connections, database resources, and so on. In fact, in an object-oriented environment, every type identifies some resource available for a program's use. To use any of these resources, memory must be allocated to represent the type.

.NET Remoting – Question and Answers

01. What distributed process frameworks outside .NET do you know? Distributed Computing Environment/Remote Procedure Calls (DEC/RPC), Microsoft Distributed Component Object Model  (DCOM), Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), and Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI).

02. What are possible implementations of distributed applications in .NET?  .NET Remoting and ASP.NET Web Services. If we talk about the Framework Class Library, noteworthy classes are in  System.Runtime.Remoting and System.Web.Services.

03. When would you use .NET Remoting and when Web services?
Use remoting for more efficient exchange of information when you control both ends of the application. Use Web services for     open-protocol-based information exchange when you are just a client or a server with the other end belonging to someone else.
