Scaling Lean Thinking and Agile Methods to Offshore development - Part I
What inhibits applying Agile and Leanvalues, principles, and practices to a large, multisite or offshoreproject, and what can we do about it?
In this talk, I'll share our experience at Valtech tackling this challenge with ourValtech India division for offshore development
We'll also explore scaling practices that have been applied with other recent projects, and how those can and most likely will apply to our future offshore projects.

Introduction to Agile Developement Pratices - Part I
A Hands-On Demonstration of Continuous Integration and Test Driven Development
What does agile development look like to a typical developer? How do continuous integration and test driven development really work? We will answer these questions by following a developer's first day coding on an agile development team. This demonstration will be live and interactive. Attendees will receive step-by-step instructions to set up a continuous integration environment from scratch and reproduce the exercises on their own.

Exploring the value proposition of Rails - part I
By now many of you have heard the growing rumble of the approaching train. Rails is taking the web development community by storm. Large numbers of people are taking notice of the productivity gains that it enables. This presentation will cover the foundations of Ruby and Rails and answer the “how” and “why” questions: how does Ruby and Rails work, and why should you care? We will begin by highlighting the Rails fundamentals that are most important to productivity gains. We will then compare Rails and the Java stack. We will look at the specifics behind the risk/reward equation, and clearly explain where the Rails sweet spot is and how to make an informed decision about usage.

Combining the power of Flex 2 and Ruby On Rails - part I
Can the combined power of these two new technologies make them the “perfect couple?” How does it change the way we build corporate web applications ? How does it compare to competitors, such as the future WPF from Microsoft?
This presentation will cover these topics, looking at the core features ofthe technologies in relation to their interactions (not a full description of each of them). It will then examine interaction scenarios between the two in the context of a classical, data-oriented corporate application with complex data entry, data search and data reporting (textual and graphical).

An introduction to Aspect Oriented Programming - part I
How am I going to get my architecture to do that?!
Aspect Oriented Programming is fundamental to JBoss implementation. JBoss' useof AOP in JBoss Tree Cache AOP provides the backbone for supporting highly-scalable, stateful session beans. JBoss Seam is based on stateful session beans and it also uses AOP for its implementation. Neither would be possible without the use of AOP.

Test and other ways to make your code work right the first time - Part I
An introduction to JUnit 4.x
JUnit is a tool that is nearly universally used to support Test-Driven Development (TDD). While there are other tools, such as TestNG, none of have had a greater impact on unit testing or the support of TDD. JUnit4 offers significant changes to how we organize and write tests, and it also offers backwards compatibility with environments that don't yet support it.
Learning what it takes to move to JUnit 4 is more important ever, since the upcoming release of Eclipse 3.2 will have built-in support for JUnit 4.
Many people aren't familiar with the annotations or static imports in Java 5, so seeing a few exampleswill help them appreciate the changes JUnit 4 offers. It will also introduce them to some of the new features in Java 5.
