What Is Homomorphic Encryption?
“Homomorphic” is an adjective which describes a property of an encryption scheme. That property, in simple terms, is the ability to perform computations on the ciphertext without decrypting it first. Because this tends to sound either baffling or miraculous the first time you hear it, let’s begin…

In this post I will demonstrate that use of the join keyword in LINQ to SQL and LINQ to Entities is nearly always wrong.

I will discuss the capabilities of the control and consider the general problem of how to use controls designed for “plain” ASP.NET in MVC applications.

This is the fourth post in a series on using jqGrid with ASP.NET MVC. Today, we’re going to examine search and formatting results. I will implement a search feature and fix the problem with formatting date columns which I observed in the last post.

Having introduced jqGrid and written LINQ extension methods to make supplying data to the grid easy, we’re now ready to put together a demo application. The solution I’m going to build demonstrates sorting and paging. In a future post, I will enhance it to demonstrate search, formatting, and editing data. I’ve made the demo application available for download…
