I'm curious if anyone have any really good tutorials/articles/books for learning about stack machines in general, and the JVM in particular. I know these ones:
http://www.artima.com/insidejvm/applets/EternalMath.html
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/ibm/library/it-haggar_bytecode/
http://www.theserverside.com/tt/articles/article.tss?l=GuideJavaBytecode
Appearently the books Inside the JVM by Bill Winners and Programming for the JVM are good, even though they are old.
These are all on my "toread" list, for rainy autumn weekends.
Anyone have any other suggestions?

I learned what the JVM did by reading The "Java Virtual Machine Specification" by Tim Lindholm back in 1999.
I don't really know where to find as good a resource about more modern technologies like the JIT compilation that the Hotspot VM can do.

I've found a lot of what I was looking for now, in the final chapter of "Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs". You are going to have to read through all the book though since they constantly build on examples and concepts from earlier on.

I have big project (not mine) in java EE , at first when I looked at it there were many many classes, when I try to understand a method of class there is another class which calls method in it and again and again, It's really hard to understand the code (there is no documentation) is there any tool to help me ?
Unfortunately there aren't really any tools to help with this, the most that you can hope is that someone created a UML Doc for the code you're viewing. However, as this is not the case, the best place to start is at the main method and slowly traverse the setup. I find that it helps to keep notes and diagrams, describing (functionally) what things do and in what order they happen.

Can someone suggest me beginners learning resources for DCOM technology using vc++
Those with Sample codes would be very helpful.
Thanks
Look at codeproject.com "DCOM D-Mystified: A DCOM Tutorial" - seven articles & sources for beginers
It depends quite a bit on your exp level with COM. Moving to DCOM is really just a matter of creating an EXE-server, registering it on the remote machine and instantiating it via CoCreateInstanceEx.
You can create simple servers using the ATL app-wizard in VS. MSDN has a number of samples you can d/l.
I realize this isn't a tutorial but you haven't really stated what you know now.

As resident techie I have been charged with teaching some colleagues VB specifically for use with Excel.
My main duties involve MySQL and Objective-C and haven't touched VB since University. While I'm not worried about the prospect of learning VB (how hard can it be, right?). I have no clue on where to point my "students" to start.
Any good books? Online tutorials? I will of-course be sending them to SO.
I like VBA Developer's Handbook by Getz and Gilbert for a book. On the internets, I always wind up at ozgrid.com and cpearson.com.
About.com often has good stuff.
After that maybe some Free VBA Tutorials
Google search came up with - http://www.vbtutor.net/VBA/vba_tutorial.html this one is very basic and probably you will just have to breeze thru it and then probably move on to my personal favorite www.ozgrid.com

I read this book:
Head First Object-Oriented Analysis and Design
Now i am looking forward to find a Software that make it easy to collect all my Ideas etc (specific Software for OOA).
At the moment i am using my Whiteboard to collect/design Ideas etc. Afterwards i am taking pictures of it and add text to our Wiki/Trac.
At school, we're using Objecteering, which is easy to use, integrated to Eclipse, but not free.
IMO blank paper is a must, but not always the easier to share and to edit.
Install mediawiki (the stuff that powers wikipedia, don't settle for anything less you will need the full feature set eventually) and put all your ideas in there. This makes it easy to refine them and to improve then as time goes by.

Are there any open source (or not) alternatives to the WCFTestClient?
The WCFTestClient has a lot of limitations that make it hard to work with (for example it does not support Entity Framework objects).
So I am looking to see if there is anything else out there that may be better (or even different).
WCF Storm or the open-source Storm
I prefer to create actual unit tests to test servers I write. The idea is that they can be rerun frequently.
You can also try soapUI.
