Am 2012-03-05 lädt die Enterprise Java User Group (http://community.ejug.at) zum eJUG Seminar ein.

Die Veranstaltung wird um 18:30 im Hotel Spitz in Linz stattfinden. Auf dem Programm stehen die Themen "Are you talking my language? JetBrains Meta Programming System" und "Promises to keep - Groovy Parallel Systems". Als Sprecher konnten wir für diesen Termin Vaclav Pech gewinnen.

Parken ist entweder in der näheren Umgebung möglich oder in der angeschlossenen Tiefgarage.

Agenda:

• 18:30-19:30 Are you talking my language? Jetbrains Meta Programming System, Vaclav Pech
• 19:45-20:30 Promises to keep - Groovy Parallel Systems, Vaclav Pech

Abstracts:

Let's write better Java code, faster. Can we get Java with closures, tuples or functional programming today? Will it help us build web applications? How intuitive Domain Specific Languages will it let us create and will they be type-safe?

JetBrains MPS gives positive answers to all of these questions. MPS is an open-source language workbench that aims to make programming life easier and give you more problem-resolution focus. In this talk we'll give you an introductory tour to MPS. We'll create several Java language extensions, play a bit with the existing ones, show several handy DSLs, build a web application and then put all the pieces together so you can get a complete picture of what MPS can do for you and your projects. If the promise of headache-free programming excites you, this session is for you.

We all make promises and so can our code. Teach your objects to make promises and to trust the promises of others and concurrency becomes a breeze. Get your objects off the couch - make them active. Allow your functions to discover parallelism by themselves without your help. Data will flow smoothly through asynchronous processors. Parallel tasks will become deterministic and well behaved.

My promise - in this talk youll learn about easy and intuitive concurrency. Well look at actors, dataflow, functions and other edge-of-your-seat concepts. If you want the promising future of concurrent programming to be your future, come.
