From C++ to Advanced Java in One Day (Full Day)
Desmond D'Souza, ICON Computing, USA
This tutorial will enable developers to effectively and efficiently
make the transition from C++ to Java, within the framework of a solid object-oriented
design paradigm. Covering key differences between the languages as well
as between corresponding design approaches, it will illustrate these differences
with a series of examples.
DESMOND D'SOUZA is the president of ICON Computing, Inc. and a member of the faculty at the Software Quality Institute at the University of Texas at Austin. He has worked with object technology since 1985. He is the author of the Education and Training column in the Journal of Object-Oriented Programming and in Report on Object Analysis and Design.
Object-Oriented Distributed Computing
Mohamed Fayad, University of Nevada
This tutorial focuses on object-oriented distributed system
developments (OODS), and examines the advancements in distributed systems
arena: client/server, the collaborative computing based on peer-to-peer
networks, and enabling technologies, such as OO software engineering, OO
distributed operating system technology, and application technologies.
OLE/COM, CORBA, SOM/DSOM, DEC Object Broker, and other approaches will
be discussed, supported by case studies and "lessons learned".
MOHAMED FAYAD is Associate Professor at University of Nevada, a CACM Associate Editor, Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Computer Society Press Practices Board in Computer Science & Engineering.
Effective utilization of CORBA technology
Alan Noble, Schlumberger, USA
This tutorial presents an overview of the CORBA architecture and its
components and describes the steps required to develop a CORBA application,
using specific examples in C++. This tutorial will be beneficial to both
software developers and managers seeking to learn more about CORBA and
acquire practical knowledge of how to build CORBA applications. Knowledge
of C++ will be helpful, though not required.
ALAN NOBLE is a software engineering specialist with Schlumberger in San Jose, California. He has over 10 years experience developing and managing software projects on Unix and Microsoft Windows systems. He has been developing distributed object-oriented applications since 1986 and has been deploying CORBA applications since 1993.
