\ninfluence that each language has on it’s web framework: Ruby On Rails,
\nGrails, Lift & Cascade.<\/p>\n
\nwhich language. While all the languages can do almost all of the tasks
\n(they are all general purpose languages), each shines a bit more than
\nthe others in some areas.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>
\nThe audience and panelists will start off with a discussion of the
\nexamples from the previous session. For each language, we will discuss
\nwhy one is better than the other. We expect all the languages to come
\nout winning, but in different areas.<\/p>\n
\nwhat is a dynamic language, Polyglot Maven and Ola Bini’s Language Pyramid.<\/p>\n

\nFrederic Jean (Ruby) has recently joined Time Warner Cable’s Advanced
\nTechnology Group. Frederic focuses on using dynamic languages such as
\nRuby and Groovy to build and test complex applications. Frederic worked
\non Project Kenai at Sun based on JRuby, to provide a hosting facility
\nfor Open Source Projects. Frederic is the speaker coordinator for the
\nBoulder Java Users Group. In Colorado Frederic has spoken at Boulder
\nRuby Users Group, Derailed, DJUG, BJUG, DOSUG and CSOSUG.<\/p>\n
\nnetworks work better for businesses and consumers. For training Scott
\nfounded ThirstyHead.com, that specializes in Groovy and Grails training.
\nScott published one of the first public websites implemented in Grails
\nin 2006 and has been actively working with the technology ever since.
\nAuthor of the book Groovy Recipes: Greasing the Wheels of Java and two
\nongoing IBM developerWorks article series (Mastering Grails and in 2009,
\nPractically Groovy), Scott writes extensively about how Groovy and
\nGrails are the future of Java development. Scott teaches public and
\nprivate classes on Groovy and Grails for start-ups and Fortune 100
\ncompanies. He is a regular presenter on the international technical
\nconference circuit (including No Fluff Just Stuff). In 2008, Scott was
\nvoted the top Rock Star at JavaOne for his talk “Groovy, the Red Pill:
\nHow to blow the mind of a buttoned-down Java developer”. In Colorado
\nScott was president of DJUG and BJUG. Scott has spoken at DJUG, BJUG and
\nIASA Denver.<\/p>\n
\ncurrently building an open source release of IDD (Intelligent Documents
\n& Drawings) an interactive drawing, symbolic math and stylistic editor
\napplication written in Scala. Tom is writing a series of papers titled
\n“The Scala Way” to explore advanced concepts about OO, functional
\nprogramming, concurrency and Ola Bini’s language pyramid layers. In 2009
\nTom introduced Axiom’s “A Practical Road Map to Enterprise Architecture”
\na refined approach based on 12 core practices for 4-Tier platforms with
\nAgile and quantitative benefit methodologies. The “Road Map” summarizes
\n14 years of enterprise architect experience at Williams Communications,
\nDMR, XCare and Axiom. In Colorado Tom has spoken at DOSUG, BJUG and CSOSUG.<\/p>\n
\nat the Denver Open Source User’s Group on April 6, 2010. Daniel has
\nrecently spent time with two Clojure based web frameworks, Cascade (a
\nweb framework authored by Howard Lewis Ship) and Compojure. Daniel is a
\nsoftware architect with over twelve years’ development and architecture
\nexperience for companies like Comcast, BellSouth and NBC-Universal.
\nDaniel has designed and implemented a digital classroom, worked on
\nlarge-scale data processing systems for the state of California, and a
\nhigh-volume content management system for Telemundo.com. Daniel’s
\ninterests include functional programming, logic systems, and enterprise
\narchitecture. Daniel is a nationally-recognized whitewater kayaker who
\nrecently relocated to Castle Rock, Colorado, and spends most of his time
\naway from the computer either with his family or on the water. In
\nColorado Daniel has spoken at DOSUG, BJUG and CSOSUG.<\/p>\n
