Once again I'm chairing the XML track at Software Development 2002
East in Boston this November 18-22. The call for papers is now live:
http://www.cmpevents.com/SDxE/default.asp?option=14&V=1&CPid=16
Tracks include .NET Programming, C++, Java Programming, Project
Management, Requirements & Analysis, Scripting Languages, Web
Services, Wireless, and XML, though I'm only personally invoked with
the XML track. Session types include 90 minute classes, full and
half-day tutorials, panels, roundtables, brown bag case studies,
birds-of-a-feather gatherings and keynotes. The deadline for
submitting abstracts is this Friday, May 10, 2002.
For the XML track, I try to select a broad range of tutorial-focused
sessions that cover specific technologies. For example, Intro to
Schemas, Intro to XSLT, Overview of XML Security, DOM for Java
programmers, etc. The key idea is that the session should be a
90-minute to full-day introduction and how-to session about some
specific XML technology that's reasonably well-cooked and can be used
today. We find that our audience likes very practical sessions and is
not as receptive to bleeding edge technologies (e.g. DOM Level 3,
XSLT2) and advanced, research level presentations (e.g. Designing RDF
Metadata, Optimization Schemes for XSLT, SOAP vs. REST). Our audience
tends to be Java and C++ professionals who are using some XML rather
than fulltime XML hackers. For the XML track, we are especially
interested in 90-minute and half-day sessions. If you have any
questions, feel free to e-mail me.
