Demos and talks on February 23rd !!!
Hello,
The tech talks that i was talking about in previous post went on well!!There were changes in the agenda as Bala couldn make it up.Second year students are also a part of this activity now, and they talked on various topics.The audience also comprised of second years so we could not make it much technical.Here are the details,
Karthik and Sundaram talked on OpenSolaris for everyone.This had to postponed to saturday as per the college management's instructions.Not many people could come.(may be because their exams were nearing).
Anugraha talked on Project Indiana , and also showed a demo.She talked on the steps of installation of the slim install as well.Parkavi joined her.Deepika is also one among them.These friends from second year are going to be the coordinators of the sun club here after.they did a really good job.
Shridhar showed a demo of the computational grid formed at TCE using SGE, (on MAC OS, RedHat Linux and Solaris machines)He gave an elaborate talk on grid computing as the second year students were new to that topic.He gave demo on running batch job through the grid.he is working on running parallel programs.
Geethu talked on SunSPOT and showed a demo of forming wireless network and deploying projects to a remote sunSpot from the base station.
I talked on Sun Studio's features(dbx,Dlight,performance analysis) its compilers , OpenMP support etc.I also showed them a demo.On the whole things went on fine and good !!!I didnt take much pictures, few are here.

Hi all,
I am working for a software integrator company. My projects includes working on Java and Ruby on Rails and Ajax. I think Web Services is really cool. We also recently have to now work on REST and they are talking about mashups and Struts. Can anyone tell me if there are some good training or conferences so that me and my team members can get to speed with these technologies. Learning from books is not my cup of tea, even not when I was doing engineering ;)
All the help that group members can provide in this regard is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Vaibhavi

Hi Vaibhavi,
There are several online resources available that you just google for. If any of your team like to read then quality books from wiley and oreilly cover such technologies in detail.
I also highly recommend you could attend the upcoming Great Indian Developer Summit (developersummit dot com) that is covering Java, Agile, REST, JAX-RS, mashups, .NET, Rich Web, JPA, SOA, rich user experiences, Spring, Groovy and more. They have most of the creators of these technologies as speakers. My team is attending this summit 22-25 apr at IISc campus where we are attending the web conference on April 23 and java on April 24. We have been able to get very good discounts. Maybe all those who are interested from your group can sign up together and get a good bargain from them. what say? I also attended last year's conference and had a really cool time.
In Hyderabad there is Sun Tech Days with some sun speakers.
Thanks,
Anaz
