![]() Speaker: Shel Finkelstein, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Abstract: Java is the platform of the future for middleware and servers, as well as clients and browsers. Java enterprise technologies provide connectivity to existing enterprise systems and data; there are also new directions which harness Java's ubiquity and productivity benefits with industrial-strength capabilities for enterprise information management and transaction processing systems. Aspects of Sun's Enterprise initiatives include:
We will also present examples of work undertaken by customers and partners which demonstrate that the Java Platform is the future of computing throughout the enterprise.
Time: Wednedsday, 4/2; 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm Speaker: Ted Goldstein, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Abstract: Smart Cards are at the vanguard of the next generation of computer technology: Individual Computers. Over 3 billion smart cards, providing computing power equal to or greater than the original IBM PC in a credit-card size, will be in consumers' hands by the year 2000. Many of these will be based on the Java Card API, a specialized version of Java that enables applications written for one smart card to run on all smart cards. The Java Card API represents a huge opportunity for Java Developers to extend their current development efforts into an entirely new arena. Smartcards are a great place to store secrets, and have a wide range of uses, such as storing medical and financial information. In this talk, Ted Goldstein will present Java Card API, JavaCard applications and the future of Java and smartcards.
Time: Wednedsday, 4/2; 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm Cost Justification for the Deployment of Java Technology: A Case Study by CSX
Facilitator: Steve Fritzinger, Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Time: Thursday, 4/3; 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Speaker: David Rivas, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Abstract: Java Media Players are Java objects for rendering time-based media such as audio and video. This presentation gives an in-depth look at the various classes and interfaces that make up the Java Media Framework (JMF) Player API, including what developers need to know to build applications that incorporate a wide variety of time-based multimedia. Java Sound is the new Java Audio API. Java Sound contains classes and interfaces that a developer will use to create and manipulate multiple audio and synthesis voices and to control the rendering of voices both directly and via MIDI commands. This presentation will look at the capabilities and uses of the Java Sound API.
Time: Thursday, 4/3; 3:15 pm - 4:15 pm Speaker: Eric Chu, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Speaker: Eric Chu, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Description: A quick high level overview of the JDK 1.1, additions including Security, AWT, I18N and RMI, including a roadmap to the future of the JDK for the coming year. Abstract: JavaTM Development Kit (JDK) has been the cornerstone for core Java technologies. With the release of JDK 1.1, Sun has raised the Java Platform to a new level by providing capabilities that simplify the task of creating enterprise-scale Java programs. This session will provide an overview of the new capabilities offered by JDK 1.1. In addition, it will provide a detailed roadmap on how the JDK will evolve over the next twelve months.
Time: Thursday, 4/3; 4:30-5:15 pm Speaker: Jonathan Brown, Sun Microsystems, Inc Description: Overview of the Java Electronic Commerce Framework and how it can be used for building electronic commerce applications. Abstract: The talk opens with a brief description of the Java Electronic Commerce Framework (JECF), the functionality provided in the Framework and why the Framework is the optimal launch platform for financial applications. Included is a demonstration of the Java Wallet, the cornerstone of the Java Commerce Toolkit. The demo leads to a detailed technical discussion of the Java Wallet's extensibility for developers providing financial service applications, electronic payment mechanisms and protocols, and electronic merchant services. The discussion closes with the current status of the JECF, plans for future expansion of the JECF, and questions.
Time: Friday, 4/4; 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Speaker: Roger Hayes, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Abstract: The 100% Pure Java certification process explained: what are the goals and criteria of certification, what test technologies are used, and how to prepare an application for certification.
Time: Friday, 4/4; 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Speakers: R. (Vasu) Vasudevan, Sun Microsystems, Inc. Description: Access to enterprise naming and directory services from Java. Abstract YDirectory services play a vital role in Intranets and Internets by providing network-wide sharing of a variety of information about users, machines, networks, services, and applications. This session will discuss the role of naming and directory services and explain how Java applications can take advantage of them.
