DESCRIPTION:Presented by Yehuda Katz (Strobe, Inc.). Just a few years ag

 elopers only needed to worry about single-device applications. Today, pe
 ople expect to use applications on their desktops and seamlessly switch 
 to phones, tablets or even televisions. Instead of just building an iPho
 ne app, companies should think about the multi-device trend when designi
 ng a mobile strategy.

SUMMARY:What We Need is More REST and Less ROT
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Mike Amundsen (Layer 7 Technologies). One of th
 e key properties of RESTful Web applications is the ability to evolve ov
 er time. Too many Web APIs don’t evolve; they just get old, and useless;
  they rot. Why? Because they are little more than URI-based RPC calls re
 turning serialized objects. Instead, Web APIs should rely on well-crafte
 d media-type messages driven by links; they should be more RESTful.

SUMMARY:API Design Anti-patterns
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Alex Martelli (Google). Designing interfaces so
  that other code can interact with ours (whether our code is a library, 
 framework, application, website...) is a very common and clearly crucial
  activity, but fraught with dangers — stuff we all keep doing wrong time
  after time. This talks shows some common cases of API design errors enc
 ountered in the wild, with tips on how to avoid them when you design you
 r next API.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dean Wampler (Think Big Analytics). You've hear

  will improve all the code you write. FP changes practices like TDD; lea

 style functions and data structures are actually more reusable than obje
 cts. Leave with new tools that eliminate bloat, improve code quality, an

SUMMARY:RESTful Web Services for Scientific Computing
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Joshua Boverhof (Lawrence Berkeley National Lab
 ), Shreyas Cholia (NERSC). RESTful HTTP web services have many advantage
 s over the "big" web services paradigm of SOAP/WSDL/XML Schema.  RESTful
  services are simpler to create, use, and test.  REST/HTTP is native to 
 the web, thus it's easy to digest these services from Javascript or a ba
 ckend.  NEWT is a RESTful web API to NERSC HPC resources, used by other 
 scientific portals.

SUMMARY:PHP and MySQL - Recent Developments
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Johannes Schlueter (Oracle). PHP's MySQL suppor
 t recently received many changes under the hood: PHP 5.3 introduced mysq
 lnd - the MySQL native driver which is a replacement for libmysql deeply
  bound into PHP. mysqlnd for instance allows developers to hook into its
  inner workings which allows a transparent client side query cache or a 
 transparent read-write splitting.

 but continues to thrive.

SUMMARY:Structural Prototypes: Resolving the Statically-typed Object-fun

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Daniel Spiewak (Novell). Object-functional lang

 in practice. Unfortunately, the merger brings with it a raft of complexi

 d the notion of statically-typed functional object prototypes.

SUMMARY:Plaid: Programming with Typestate and Permissions
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Karl Naden (Carnegie Mellon University), Jonath
 an Aldrich (Carnegie Mellon University). Plaid is a new programming lang
 uage with native support for typestate and permissions. Typestate captur
 es the changing states an object can be in, allowing the object's interf
 ace, representation, and behavior to change. A gradual (optional) type s
 ystem tracks the typestate of objects, using permissions like "unique" t
 o reason in the presence of aliasing. The PL's power is demonstrated by 
 examples.

SUMMARY:Fighting for the Future of the Social Web: Selling Out and Openi
 ng Up
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Joseph Smarr (Google). OpenID, OAuth, and other
  efforts to open up the social web are a dizzying mix of successes and s
 etbacks. Are they being widely adopted, or eclipsed by proprietary alter
 natives? Are they good enough for mainstream users, or still too geeky? 
 And have their fiercest proponents “sold out” by taking jobs at Google a
 nd Facebook, or are they continuing the fight from within? Come hear the
  inside story.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Mingsheng Hong (Vertica, An HP Company). When w
 orking with structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data, there is
  often a tendency to try and force one tool - either Hadoop or a traditi

 r some analytics projects, and a purpose-built analytics platform for ot
 hers.  The magic comes in knowing when to use which and how these two to
 ols can work together.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Martin Odersky (Typesafe). Multicore processors

SUMMARY:Coding over Configuration
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Robert "r0ml" Lefkowitz (Independent). Many Jav
 a frameworks and servers depend on a maze of twisty XML files wherein ma
 ny get lost.  In a system where the source code is unavailable, such an 
 approach allows for customization.  But when you can modify the source, 
 the configuration files are unnecessary.  After all, you can make the co
 de do what you want.  And it is less verbose and more understandable.

  those, there is Spring Roo, the highly productive development framework

SUMMARY:Ephemeral Hadoop Clusters in the Cloud
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Greg Fodor (Etsy). The data & analytics teams a
 t Etsy build up and tear down more than a thousand independent Hadoop cl
 usters on EC2 each month. This talk discusses the benefits of this appro
 ach, where Elastic Map Reduce serves as a "meta-cluster" in which on-dem
 and Hadoop clusters can be created, used, and shut down quickly and easi
 ly.

SUMMARY:MVCC Unmasked
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Bruce Momjian (EnterpriseDB). Multiversion Conc
 urrency Control (MVCC) allows Postgres to offer high concurrency even du
 ring significant database read/write activity. MVCC specifically offers 
 behavior where "readers never block writers, and writers never block rea
 ders". This talk explains how MVCC is implemented in Postgres and highli
 ghts optimizations which minimize the downsides of MVCC. This talk is fo
 r advanced users.

SUMMARY:MySQL for the Large Scale Social Games
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Yoshinori Matsunobu (DeNA). We at DeNA (largest
  social game provider in Japan) handle over 2 billion page views per day
  with MySQL. We heavily use SSD and tune Linux. We run non-trivial solut
 ions such as non-stop, automated MySQL master failover. We also use MySQ
 L not only as traditional RDBMS but also an extremely high performance N
 oSQL. I'd like to introduce our MySQL solutions to make our social games
  scale better.

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Andrew Aksyonoff (Sphinx Technologies), Adam Ri

SUMMARY:Facebook Messages and HBase
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Nicolas Spiegelberg (Facebook). In November, Fa
 cebook launched a new version of Messages that combines chat, SMS, email
 , and Messages into a real-time conversation.  Facebook relies on Apache
  HBase, a NoSQL-style database, for storing this real-time message data.
   This talk will elaborate on our decision process, system configuration
 , scaling issues, and advantages gained by choosing Open Source.

SUMMARY:Lumberyard: Time Series Indexing at Scale
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Josh Patterson (Cloudera). Time Series sensors 
 are being ubiquitously integrated in places like cell phones, environmen
 tal sensors, and the smart grid. As we scale out this type of data RDBMS
  systems strain to scale with the high insertion rates and real time que
 ry requirements. In this talk we introduce “Lumberyard” which is a scala
 ble indexing and low latency fuzzy pattern searching time series data.

SUMMARY:Designing for Engagement with Gamification in Open Source
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Gabe Zichermann (Gamification.Co & Gamification
  Summit). Creating engaging user experiences in software have become the
  mantra of businesses big and small - but what about open source? Do we 
 do enough user-centric design and are we creating the kind of long-term 
 user engagement we want?  What are the challenges for open source advoca
 tes and developers to building truly engaging experiences and how can ga
 mification make open-everywhere a reality?
