Announcing 2018 Duke's Choice Award Winners
<p>In keeping with its 16-year history, the 2018 Duke's Choice Award winners were announced at the Groundbreakers Hub at Code One. The winners include JPoint, a self-driving car; community winners BgJUG (the Bulgarian JUG) . Among the winners announced were also tools from ClassGraph, Twitter4J, Apache NetBeans and Jelastic vertical memory scaling along with open source initiatives, MicroProfile.IO and Project Helidon. </p>
<p><strong><a href="https://netbeans.apache.org" target="_blank">Apache NetBeans</a> - Toni Epple, Constantin Drabo, Mark Stephens </strong><br />
An integrated development environment (IDE) for Java. NetBeans allows applications to be developed from a set of modular software components and runs on Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, and Solaris.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://jug.bg/en/" target="_blank">Bulgarian Java User’s Group, BgJUG</a> - Dmitry Alexandrov, Nayden Gochev, Ivan St. Ivanov, Mihail </strong><strong>Stoynov</strong><strong>, Martin Toshev</strong><br />
The BgJUG deserves recognition for their mastery of two pillars: the technical side and the community. Influencing the adoption of Java for more than 10 years, the group organizes highly effective events regularly. The passion, dedication, and professionalism at BgJUG are highly contagious. The human aspect, the empathy, the collaborative nature, and the diversity this team consistently promotes is very refreshing.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://github.com/classgraph/classgraph" target="_blank">ClassGraph</a> - Luke Hutchison</strong><br />
ClassGraph is an uber-fast parallelized classpath scanner, module scanner, and build-time/runtime annotation processor for JVM languages. ClassGraph directly parses class files to build a graph of the relatedness of all visible classes, methods, fields, and annotations, and this graph can be queried or visualized in a wide range of ways, bringing valuable meta programming features to the JVM ecosystem.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://jelastic.com/" target="_blank">Jelastic</a> - Ruslan Synytsky </strong><br />
Elastic JVM with Automatic Vertical Memory Scaling allows the JVM<br />
to dynamically adjust the maximum memory limit for running Java process without JVM restart, and releases unused memory back to the host machine to save money for companies running workloads in the cloud.</p>
