developed for parsing PDFs, and potentially performing optical character recognition (OCR) in case of non-searchable PDFs. For searchable PDFs, an open source tool called Apache PDFBox is available, while for non-searchable PDFs, depending on quality requirements, OCR needs to be performed by going to a paid Google Vision API or using open-source tools like Tesseract. A strategy pattern based solution Figure 3 - Strategy pattern based parser The application provides a PdfProcessor…

A scenario that best elucidates the operation of a 24 hour knowledge factory involves three or more geographically and temporally distributed software R&D teams. Traditionally, this scenario required that the complete project is sequentially moderated and assigned alternately to each of the teams. Collaboration between the teams, in this case, is minimal, restricted to communicating through the various interface provided. Unlike the traditional development model, the 24-h knowledge factory…
