• Client/Server Apps with HTML5 and Java

  by James Ward

  The web application landscape is rapidly shifting back to a Client/Server architecture. This time around the Client is JavaScript, HTML, and CSS in the browser. The tools and deployment techniques for these types of applications are abundant and fragmented. This session will teach you how to pull together jQuery, LESS, Twitter Bootstrap, and some CoffeeScript to build the Client. The Server could be anything that talks HTTP but this session will use the Play Framework. You will also learn how to deploy Client/Server web apps on the cloud using a Content Delivery Network (Amazon CloudFront) for the Client and a Cloud Application Provider (Heroku) for the Server.

• Reducing Technical Debt in OpenJDK -- The Legacy and the Burden

  by Stuart Marks

  Like many projects, OpenJDK has technical debt. OpenJDK, being an implementation of the Java platform, bears a greater burden: evolving the platform makes its own implementation go out of date. It's an enormous effort to keep the JDK up to date with Java. This talk examines this kind of technical debt in OpenJDK and presents some paths toward mitigating it.
