Rob Rusher on Delivering to multiple platforms with Adobe Open Source technologies

ActionScript can be used to build web applications that run as standalone client as well as browser applications.  Adobe AIR unleashes the creativity of designers and developers by providing a consistent and flexible development environment for the delivery of applications across devices and platforms.  Support for Android, BlackBerry Tablet OS and iOS mobile operating system, and TVs is now available.  This session will discuss and demonstrate how to use Adobe technology to build engaging front-ends that work on many platforms.

 

John Lowe on Programmable Logic

This presentation provides a technical overview of programable logic devices, chips whose logic building blocks and their interconnect is specified (programmed) by the user using high level languages.  Amazingly, this technology is available not only to industry, but to individuals for education, research, hobby projects, and just plain geeky fun (Yes, you can build your own PDP-11 and run Unix!).  We'll look at what programmable logic devices are, why & when they are used in industry, and walk though a demo to explore the "code" & tools for these magical devices.
