JavaPolis 2005 talks (and DVD) are here...

Every week we'll release JavaPolis 2005 talks on our wiki, let the virtual JavaPolis begin !
Make sure you block your agenda for JavaPolis 2006 - December 11th till 15th 2006 (Belgium)

XOM Design Principals by Elliotte Rusty Harold

XOM (XML Object Model) is an open source API for processing XML with Java using a streaming tree model. Although it is open source, XOM was implemented using the cathedral model of development (one designer's vision) rather than the bazaar model. This JavaPolis talk by Elliotte explores the design goals, basic API principles, XML principles, Java restrictions and requirements, and testing techniques and tools that have informed XOM's development. In the process, Elliotte identifies some general principles of API design for all Java libraries and systems.

Dali EJB ORM by Shaun Smith

With much fanfare, the EJB 3.0 specification has been brought forward for public review and an Eclipse project is currently building an open source API and exemplary implementation of tools for the definition and editing of Object-Relational (O/R) mappings for EJB 3.0 Entity Beans. During this talk, Shaun Smith will introduce Dali (the nickname for this project) and show how it can be used to build applications for deployment against your favourite J2EE server. Shaun Smith is a product manager for Oracle TopLink and co-lead of the Eclipse Dali EJB Object-Relational Mapping Project. He has been building systems using object-relational mapping technologies for almost a decade in both Java and Smalltalk in the banking, telecommunications, and energy industries. In recent years, Shaun's focus has been on the development of Test Driven Development (TDD) techniques for building enterprise systems with persistence needs. His current interests include developing tooling and TDD techniques for the new EJB 3.0 persistence specification.

Service Data Objects by Michael Rowley

In this talk, Michael Rowley will describe SDO and how it can be used to simplify and unify data access programming. Michael will describe the architecture and APIs that make up SDO and will show several examples.
Simplifying data access has been a perennial issue for Java developers and several technologies have been created for that purpose. Since SDO does not attempt to be all things to all people, there are times when it is complementary to other technologies, while in other cases it competes. This talk will compare code as it looks with SDO to code that uses other approaches.

JavaPolis 2006

JavaPolis 2006 takes place between December 11th and 15th in Antwerp (Belgium) at the venue MetroPolis. During the first 2 days you can attend in-depth University sessions and follow technical hands-on labs. Followed by the JavaPolis Conference (3 days) with 60 minute technical talks covering topics on Web, standard and enterprise Java, Security, SOA, Architecture, Methodology, case-studies, mobile and hot beans! Next to the conference we'll have 15 minute Quickies, informal BOFs and a new concept named Whiteboards. Whiteboards are one hour sessions where people can reserve a whiteboard and present, brainstorm, model with other interested developers. This year we'll again organize a RAD Race for which we'll send out a Request For Attendance through our newsletter. Just login on to our wiki to receive the JavaPolis newsletter. JavaPolis registration will start around August, make sure you register soon because JavaPolis will sell out... first come, first served. View here.

What is new in Next Generation Mobile Java? by Srikanth Raju

Java has come a long way from being an interesting experiment back in 1999 to what it is today : de-facto, mainstream programming platform for mobile devices. The fact that there are more than 700 million Java enabled devices today is a direct result of this ever-increasing adoption of the Java Platform as 'the' platform for mobility computing. In this talk, you'll receive a quick snapshot of where we are today including a brief discussion of some of the issues that developers are facing such as fragmentation. We will then start to discuss a key initiative from the Java community, namely the Mobile Service Architecture(MSA), which addresses this very issue. We will then dive into the details of MSA, architecture, implementation, etc. We will also discuss in detail, other evolving, next generation mobile java standards such as Mobile Operations Management APIs(JSR-232), which brings OSGiTM standards based, service-oriented, managed and secure computing environment for mobile Java. Srikanth will then take a look at a case study of how these technologies are implemented in Nokia Series 60 platform, and discuss day-to-day issues such as UI programming on this next generation Java platform.

Smart and entertaining phones means smart business by Mikael Nerde

Phone manufacturers know that developers are looking to create an application that will take the mobile phone market by storm, something that will attract the business user or the private consumer, but why do some applications seem to be more popular than others? What is it that gives one application an edge over another? Are the most successful applications targeting a specific audience or does it span market segments, do they need to stand out to have appeal, or is the success of the application down to the technical specifications and abilities of a specific phone, or is it all a matter of how much marketing money you spend? In this talk, Sony Ericsson will examine several of the key factors that make certain applications more appealing to the mobile phone market than others, including marketing and technical rationales. Mikael Nerde will be examining what is required to make an application successful, as well as elaborate on the types of applications that are not yet created but there might be a market for?

Hi

How about a few GoogleEarth placemarks (venue, train stations, etc) somewhere on the web site - It will help with the hotel planning, etc

Thx

Check out the venue and JavaPolis Hotels which are also mentioned at the top of this page.

Stephan,

How do you suggest foreigners pay? I don't have a euro-denominated account. Do I really have to go off to my bank and get them to issue me a euro cheque, then snail-mail it to somewhere in Belgium?

Or maybe this is just a euro-zone conference this year? Brits, Norwegians, etc stay away?

I'm pretty sure that isn't what is meant, but it kind of looks like it.....

Posted by Don Stadler at Nov 13, 2005 09:52 | Permalink

Don, if you check out the FAQ you'll notice you can pay through paypal OR at the registration desk with a credit card or cash.

Posted by Stephan Janssen at Nov 13, 2005 10:02 | Permalink

Next year we'll make sure you can pay online with credits cards

Hello Don,

The registration wizard has been optimized compared to last year, where you don't have to signup on our wiki anymore to register for JavaPolis.

We've succesfully received your registration some time ago and I've also replied personally to you some time ago giving more info about the registration.

I believe all communication states 300 Euro + VAT (which is 21% in Belgium) for 5 days. However if you only want to attend University OR Conference you only pay 150 Euro (+VAT), which is a joke compared to other Java conferences.

Hope this helps ?

I agree that the conference fee is very reasonable, Stephan, but it's important to make it clear just how much it will cost up-front I think. Most prices in Europe are tax-inclusive. This one wasn't. It's not that big a deal, though.

I didn't mind signing up to the wiki - as long as I could register and pay online. It's good that you dropped the wiki - but bad you dropped the online payment mechanism.

Hello Stephan,

I agree with both you, that the price is very reasonable for the conference, uni or both (for most US conferences I know the hotels take more per night and that does not even include VAT or local taxes )

In most European countries I have however seen VAT and other fees already includes. Some like e.g. Switzerland even include the tip in most common prices (like taxi, hotel, etc.) but therefore those are also at least 10-20% more expensive ;->

Stating the extra taxes and fees would not have been so bad. At least 363 EUR for all events still is less than 1 EUR per day of the year

I guess those who speak (I am scheduled for the University) also have to register and pay for those days?
Having such a moderete price for everybody I do not complain in that case. Just want to be sure about that.

Regards,
Werner Keil

Don,
To add one more note to your statement about the "true" price, Austria has just forced all airlines advertising to their citizens (so to some extent it might even affect German speaking web sites of the most popular discount flyers, at least if they have and want to keep landing permissions for Austrian airports) to only use prices with all taxes and fees included (so no 1 EUR or 99 Cent offers, if today's fuel prices push that up to e.g. 99 EUR in the end )

Hi all,

Thanks for organizing a very informative and fun conference.

One of the organizers overheard me mention a small improvement and told me to post it to the sight or he would forget. So here it is.

Next year, please put all the events (BOFs, quickies, talks) together on the same schedule so we don't have to flip back and forth.

Thanks,

Charles

Excellent!  I wasn't fortunate enough to make it to the conference last year, so I purchased the 2004 DVD.  It is a fantastic way to keep up with the latest and greatest Java technologies.  They really do a good job of getting the right speakers on the right topics.

I am looking where I can order the JavaPolis 2004 DVD (yes, not the 2005 - this one I found).

Can anyone send the link?

Posted by Yaniv Shaya at Jun 23, 2006 04:53 | Permalink

And also 2003 in case there was such (I think there wasn't but maybe ...)
