2009 Session: Playing on the edge

Wednesday, 15:35 - 16:25
Track: Java

Playing in the huge arena that is 'Java' requires a pragmatic approach and willingness to work at the edges:

  • Languages - Java is the core, but there is value in moving out when appropriate (JRuby, SQL, JSON, etc.)
  • Frameworks - Why code one, when you can find one: Eclipse RCP
  • Developers - local and remote, loose and Agile, and open source
We find efficiency gains from the use of open source, distributed development, agile techniques and language integration.

Prerequisites

Some experience with java desktop app development is useful

Expectations

Eclipse RCP, client-server, distributed development

Additional Info


Craig Taverner

I am a technology enthusiast, software developer, scientist and entrepreneur.

After formal training in pure scientific research, involving numerical modeling of physical systems, I was drawn into the world of professional programming, initially protocol development in Perl and C, then advanced engineering data analysis and optimization applications in Java, C++ and a host of other languages, and now finally I'm really enjoying open source development mostly with Ruby and Eclipse RCP.
