Steve Mayzak (SpringSource, a division of VMware),
Josh Long (SpringSource, a division of VMware)
The Spring framework is the most ubiquitous Java framework today and the easiest way to solve many problems. At some point, however, developers start to feel Java applications just can't be any simpler because Java itself is not very simple. It is at this juncture that most people look for alternatives. For those, there is Spring Roo, the highly productive development framework for Spring users.

Paper: Above the Clouds_ Introducing Akka Paper [PDF]
Akka is using the Actors together with STM to create a unified runtime and programming model for scaling both UP (multi-core) and OUT (grid/cloud). Akka provides location transparency by abstracting away both these tangents of scalability by turning them into an ops task. This gives the Akka runtime freedom to do adaptive automatic load-balancing, cluster rebalancing, replication & partitioning
Bruce Snyder (SpringSource/VMware)

For existing programmers of any language at any level.
Zigurd Mednieks (Surfaceable.com)
One theme of Programming Android is that Android is now client Java. Client Java is what every Java coder started with when they start learning Java, but then, when it gets down to working for a living, it's all server Java now. So you have millions of coders who are primed for a successful client Java, and many of them work in enterprise IT. How will Android impact the work of Java coders?
David Blevins (Apache Software Foundation)
Apache TomEE, pronounced "Tommy", is a simple all-Apache stack aimed at Java EE 6 Web Profile certification where Tomcat is top dog. Built on a plain Tomcat zip file, Apache TomEE fills out the missing pieces in a way that is simple, to-the-point, and focused on the singular task of delivering the Java EE 6 Web Profile in a minimalist fashion. Get more from Tomcat without giving up anything.
Josh Long (SpringSource, a division of VMware)
Today's users expect their applications and data to follow them beyond the web-browser as they go mobile, watch TV, and work with their local operating system environment. In this talk, Josh Long introduces common ways to build these applications and how Spring can help simplify things both on the server side and client side.
Joshua Marinacci (Nokia)
Java is a great language but it's not supported on all mobile platforms. This session will show you how to use the open source GWT Java->JavaScript compiler and the PhoneGap build tool to create great mobile applications in Java that run on virtually all smartphone OSes: including webOS, Android, and iOS. We will see how to get started, build a few apps, and adapt them to different screen sizes.
Max Katz (Exadel)
Learn how to build JSF Ajax applications with RichFaces - a rich framework for JSF. RichFaces comes with over 100 rich and Ajax components, Skins, client-side validation, and a component development kit (CDK). This session will include numerous live code examples.
Robert "r0ml" Lefkowitz (Independent)
Many Java frameworks and servers depend on a maze of twisty XML files wherein many 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 code do what you want. And it is less verbose and more understandable.
Stuart Marks (Oracle)

You've heard about NoSQL. You've heard about the Cloud. What if you could spin up something like HBase in a couple minutes and try out both at the same time. By the end of this session, you'll learn how to do just that, in a way portable across several NoSQL projects and dozens of compute clouds.
Avinash Agrawal (SETI Institute),
Francis Potter (The Hathersage Group)
Most people have ideas on SETI; if only they had a chance, they would enhance the search. Wait no more. setiQuest gives you access to data, software that we just open-sourced after 20 years of being closed, and sophisticated front-end tools. Learn how you can help us improve the data and tools, or use them yourself to find ETI. If we succeed, this could be most profound scientific discovery ever.
Java 7 is out in 2 days and now is the time to do some old school hacking with it! We've picked some existing open source projects that could benefit from some Java 7 spring cleaning and you're going to help us wield the feather duster.
This session has limited space for 15 attendees on a "first come, first served" basis.
