ESUG 2011 Videos now complete

by Marcus Denker

Hi, All existing ESUG 2011 videos are now on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL813665D04A2E4C0A Or for download in the ESUG archive: http://esug.org/data/ESUG2011/Videos/ Quality is a bit mixed... some are quite good and easy to follow, some have very bad sound quality or even parts missing. (The reason was that we could not use the local fixed video equipment as originally planed... considering that its not too bad) for the ESUG Board, Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- http://marcusdenker.de

[ANN][DBX] Phoseydon Beta2

by Guillermo Polito

Hi! I'm willing to announce the second beta release of Phoseydon, part of the DBXTalk project, supported by ESUG :). It's main new feature is a simple internal dsl to generate entities, so you can create applications from something like: personEntity := application entityNamed: #Person. personEntity hasString: #nickname; hasInteger: #age; hasBoolean: #isProgrammer. petEntity := application entityNamed: #Pet. petEntity hasString: #nickname. personEntity hasMany: #Pet as: #pets. petEntity hasOne: #Person as: #owner. Also, a little manual is already written in: http://dbxtalk.smallworks.com.ar/pier/Documentation For download: http://dbxtalk.smallworks.com.ar/pier/Download Issues, mails, questions: http://dbxtalk.smallworks.com.ar/pier/Support Cheers, the DBXTalk Team

Call for papers - Science of Computer Programming: Special Issue on "Advances in Dynamic Languages"

by jannik.laval

================================================ Special issue on "Advances in Dynamic Languages" ================================================ Special issue of Elsevier's Science of Computer Programming (SCICO) Context ------- Over recent years we have seen an increased interest in dynamic programming languages such as Smalltalk, Lisp, Scheme, PHP, JavaScript, Self, Python, Ruby, and so on. These languages have taken a prominent role in teaching, web development, scripting, rapid prototyping, tool building, language engineering, and many other domains. For this special issue we invite high-quality papers that focus on novel research related to dynamic programming languages and applications of these languages. We are interested in research that uses dynamic languages in the context of, but not restricted to: - Aspects, aspect Languages and applications. - Ambient intelligence, ubiquitous / pervasive computing and embedded systems. - Compilation technology, optimization, virtual machines. - Language engineering, extensions. - Model-driven engineering / development. - Meta-modeling, reflection and meta-programming. - Programming in the large; design, architectures and components. - Programming environments, browsers, user interfaces, UI frameworks. - Source-code analysis and manipulation (static analysis,refactoring, type inference, metrics). - Testing, eXtreme Programming / practices. - Web services, internet applications, event-driven programming. - Experience reports. The special issue is associated with the Smalltalks 2011 conference. The Smalltalks series of conferences (www.fast.org.ar) is a lively forum on Smalltalk-based software technologies that brings together more than 200 people from both academia and industry for a period of three days. Submission Guidelines --------------------- Papers should be written in English, in PDF-format and should not exceed 25 pages (including references and figures), using the Elsevier journal format. The LaTeX template for this format can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/authorsview.authors/latex Papers must be submitted through the EES submission system located at http://ees.elsevier.com/scico/default.asp When reaching the "Article type" step in the submission process, it is important to select "Special issue: Advances in Dynamic Languages". Each paper will be reviewed by at least 3 experts within the domain. The accepted papers will be published in a special edition of Elsevier's Science of Computer Programming. Papers submitted must not have been previously published (at least 30% new material) and must not be under review for publication elsewhere. Papers must strictly adhere to submission guidelines. If you have questions, please send an e-mail to Jannik Laval (jlaval(a)labri.fr) and Andy Kellens (akellens(a)vub.ac.be) Important dates (tentitavely) ----------------------------- - Submission round 1: March 16, 2012 - Feedback round 1: May 17, 2012 - Submission round 2: June 29, 2012 - Feedback round 2 (final notification): August 17, 2012 - Camera ready version: September 14, 2012 Guest editors ------------- Andy Kellens (Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium) Jannik Laval (LaBRI Bordeaux, France)
