Presentations
Easy Mobile Development Workshop: Mobile GUI Frameworks
Bring your laptop! This is a workshop specifically designed to get you up and running with popular mobile GUI frameworks and build feature-rich application in 90 minutes! Install a good Javascript/HTML editor, Google Chrome, and Safari (or another newer Webkit based web browser) and the latest PhoneGap release. Also install the latest Android SDK. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE COMING TO THE WORKSHOP. Of course, you're welcome to come watch as we work through the exercises, or pair up with a new friend. You can also install the latest iOS SDK if you have a Mac and are interested in iPhone/iPad development.
There are a number of great Javascript frameworks for creating slick-looking Mobile Web GUI's. In this session, we'll look at some of the popular ones while building a mobile GUI. We'll have a look at JQTouch, Jo, and jQuery Mobile.
This is a 90 minute workshop intended to teach you the basics of working with these mobile GUI frameworks. We'll work on several exercises as you build up a complete, feature-rich, mobile application that you can test on either Android or iOS devices. Topics we'll cover in this workshop: * Webkit web browser * webkit extensions * jQTouch ** Navigation ** UI widgets * Jo ** Navigation ** UI widgets * jQuery Mobile ** Navigation ** UI widgets * Creating a native app using PhoneGap ** PhoneGap overview ** Bundling your HTML/CCS/javascript in PhoneGap ** Building with PhoneGap
Easy Mobile Development: Appcelerator Titanium Introduction
Titanium is an open-source development tool for producing cross-platform mobile applications by Appcelerator. Using Titanium, you develop your mobile application using Javascript coded against the Titanium API's. Titanium Developer, a management GUI for your mobile apps, invokes their compiler and builder to take your Javascript and build a native application for iOS and Android.
This session will walk you through the details of building great apps for the Android and iOS platforms. We'll talk about Titanium development, its ecosystem, and architecture. We'll spend time looking at lots of code - we'll build an app, in fact, while we discuss and explore the framework. We'll also spend some time discussing best practices, what to expect when developing against it, and the limits of this type of development.

Java Database Programming with JDBC by Pratik Patel and Karl Moss is an updated edition of the authors' guide to the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) standard for database programming under Java. While the original edition was perhaps geared more to those developers who needed to write their own JDBC database drivers, a fairly arduous task, this new edition provides more background information on database connectivity issues in Java and so will be even more useful to the casual or intermediate programmer. After a general introduction to JDBC and Structured Query Language (SQL), useful even to beginning programmers, the authors start by building a simple database-aware applet. New chapters on "servlets," Java components that run on the server-side and manage database operations, as well as a general discussion of middleware technologies are particularly good. Database access for JavaBean components (from Sun Microsystems JDK 1.1) is also discussed, including working code for two database-aware beans. This book also includes a quick introduction to the Java language (which will only be helpful if you already know C/C++), a detailed reference for the JDBC API, and a working example of a text-based JDBC driver. Though this book is still oriented toward the JDBC driver developer, the authors now provide enough general discussion of JDBC architectural issues to make it worthwhile to any programmer who needs to ramp up on what JDBC is and what capabilities it offers.
