Learning About Aspects

Posted by: Ron Bodkin on 11/15/2006

I enjoyed being back at a couple of No Fluff Just Stuff conferences this fall (including the Rocky Mountain Software Symposium this past weekend). Jay Zimmerman continues to do a great job of providing fresh technical content with great speakers and it's always fun to talk the audiences at these about topics like Glassbox, AOP, and AJAX.

For those who are interested in digging in to aspects more deeply, I highly recommend the Aspect Leadership Program (ALP), which will be held in Vancouver this March 14th and 15th.

The ALP is an opportunity to learn from seven of the world's leading experts, who will provide a two-day crash course on everything you need to know to figure out what aspect-oriented programming (AOP) is all about; identify whether and how you can use it to add value, drive quality and improve productivity in your enterprise; and provide practical guidance on implementing AOP. I'm also proud to be part of the presenters at this event. Please pass on the word about this to others who might be interested, too!
