SUMMARY:Observing and Optimizing your Application with DTrace
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Angelo Rajadurai (Sun). As application complexi
 ty increases, observing it in action becomes harder. Traditional tools a
 re not very useful when going across programing languages. DTrace is a r
 evolutionary tool that allows you to observe applications in AMP stack a

 uch more. This session will teach you DTrace and demonstrate techniques 
 of using it.

  Django web applications. A graph database, such as Neo4j, is a database
  that models data as a graph data structure with focus on the relationsh
 ips between entities, and each node as its own entity, rather than the s
 tructure of data records. This makes it a good fit for object oriented w
 eb frameworks like Django.

SUMMARY:Upgrading to Rails 3
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Michael Bleigh (Intridea). Rails has reached a 
 degree of popularity among web developers, so there's a lot of Rails 2.x
  series code floating around.  Of course, once Rails 3 is released, it's
  not like these apps will explode, ceasing to function in an any meaning
 ful way, but it would be nice to get all the new hotness that this relea
 se brings.

SUMMARY:Ruby and Mirah on App Engine
DESCRIPTION:Presented by John Woodell (Google, Inc. ), Charles Nutter (E
 ngine Yard, Inc). Ruby apps can now be deployed to Google App Engine tha
 nks to JRuby. New app instances spin-up on demand so there is no need to
  provision hardware but each new JRuby runtime can take several seconds.
  Mirah (formerly Duby) is a new language with Ruby-inspired syntax that 
 compiles directly to Java bytecode. Duby is compelling for App Engine de
 velopment because new instances can spin-up in a second.

SUMMARY:Test and Behavior Driven Development in JavaScript
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Steven Parkes (smparkes.net llc). Testing is Ja
 vaScript's Achilles' heel: the language is powerful with good library su
 pport, but testing practices are cumbersome to non-existent. This talk d
 emonstrates a set of tools that make test/behavior driven development in
  JavaScript as quick and effective as Java, Ruby, or Python, including a
 spects unique to JavaScript such as the browser environment and asynchro

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Florian Cramer (Piet Zwart Institute, Willem de

 sign programme of the Piet Zwart Institute has, for years, employed Open
  Source more radically for all course work, on servers and clients, with
  a focus on the command line, coding and FLOSS philosophy to foster reth
 inking of media instead of off-the-shelf design.

SUMMARY:Dist::Zilla - Maximum Overkill for CPAN Distributions
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Ricardo Signes (Pobox.com). Perl's CPAN system 
 is its killer app: a massive collection of libraries for nearly any task
  at hand.  The code on the CPAN ranges from dreadful to superb, but the 
 code used to build CPAN packages has typically hovered around "mediocre,
 " largely due to artificial constraints.  Dist::Zilla breaks free of con
 straints like performance, footprint, and good taste to provide you with
  unbridled power.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Simon  Phipps (Open Source Initiative). We've a

SUMMARY:Distributed, Modular Grid Software for Management and Exploratio
 n of Data in Patient-Centric Healthcare IT
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Andrew Hart (NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory), D
 avid Kale (Children's Hospital Los Angeles), Heather Kincaid (NASA Jet P
 ropulsion Laboratory). Medical informatics lags behind the progress of o
 ther “big data” domains, in large part because data is often held hostag
 e in proprietary applications and schema. We present a grid software sol
 ution to this problem that utilizes NASA JPL’s Object Oriented Data Tech
 nology (OODT) and is being deployed at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles t
 o enable new data-driven clinical decision support tools.

SUMMARY:Frink
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Alan Eliasen (Frink).  Frink is a practical pro
 gramming language and calculating tool designed to make physical calcula
 tions simple.  It tracks units of measure through all calculations, ensu
 ring that answers are correct. Back-of-the-envelope calculations become 
 trivial, and more complex physical and engineering calculations become s
 impler to write and read, and allow transparent use of any units of meas
 ure.

SUMMARY:Newspeak
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Gilad Bracha (Ministry of Truth). Newspeak is c
 lass based dynamic language geared toward software engineering combined 
 with high productivity. Newspeak is based on two key ideas: all names ar
 e late bound, and there is no global namespace. Newspeak offers outstand
 ing modularity and reconciles security with dynamism and reflectivity.

SUMMARY:Thoughts on the F# Productization
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Joe Pamer (Microsoft). F# was already a fairly 
 mature language with roots in Microsoft Research, Cambridge, and a stead
 ily growing user base when the decision was made to officially support i
 t in Visual Studio 2010. Having just shipped F# 2.0, the goal of this ta
 lk is to outline the experiences, both positive and negative, we had in 
 transitioning the F# language and its implementation.

SUMMARY:CoffeeScript
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jeremy Ashkenas (DocumentCloud). CoffeeScript i
 s a little language that compiles into JavaScript. It's a thought experi

 Recommended for folks who are interested in languages that run in the br
 owser as well as the server.

 gnostic language with backends for JVM bytecode, Java source, and more p
 latforms planned. It borrows features from several static and dynamic la
 nguages, but with a twist: no runtime dependency on any additional libra
 ry; everything is done at compile time.

 of E-like security in a simple compatible subset of JavaScript.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jonathan Edwards (MIT). Mainstream programming 
 languages are imperative: the programmer dictates the order of reads and
  writes to memory. Declarative languages (for example functional and log
 ic languages) remove this major cause of complexity and error. Unfortuna
 tely, declarative languages impose severe constraints on the structure a

SUMMARY:High Wizardry in the Land of Scala
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Daniel Spiewak (Novell). Scala is an intensely 
 powerful language. One of the most obvious ways in which this manifests 
 is the syntax, which is wonderfully amenable to internal DSLs and flexib
 le APIs (not to mention endless reams of obfuscated sources and fanciful
  operators). Despite the superficial flash of Scala's syntactic skin, it
 s true power lies in the type system and in the language's deep semantic
  constructs.

SUMMARY:What We Need are Standards in the Cloud
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Sam Johnston (Google), Benjamin Black (Boundary
 ), Subra Kumaraswamy (eBay Inc), Mark  Masterson (CSC), Patrick Kerpan (
 Cohesive Flexible Technologies), Stephen O'Grady (Redmonk). Do standards
  matter in the cloud, are they important or a pointless waste of time wh
 ich is more likely to inhibit innovation rather than benefit it?

SUMMARY:Are Open APIs Enough to Prevent Lock-in?
DESCRIPTION:Presented by George Reese (enStratus Networks LLC), James Du
 ncan (Joyent), Subra Kumaraswamy (eBay Inc), Mark  Masterson (CSC), Patr
 ick Kerpan (Cohesive Flexible Technologies), Stephen O'Grady (Redmonk). 
 One of the major concerns around cloud computing is lock-in but can open
  APIs solve this problem. Are they enough to create portability and inte
 roperability between providers? Can Open APIs mean that a proprietary pl
 atform can be a friend to the open source world?

  such as Smalltalk, in which everything is an object and every operation
  a message send, a clear and beautiful model.  But then something went v
 ery wrong.
