EEB1: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Process - From Eclipse to Jazz

  • Erich Gamma IBM OTI Labs, Zürich
  • Keynote

    The Eclipse Platform was developed using agile practices. In the course of pursuing our goal of ongoing transparency and project health through continuous consumption and feedback, we adapted and evolved our practices and those we learned from the agile community. This has resulted in what we now refer to as the "Eclipse Way" practices that we (and others) have applied to other software development efforts as well. Being tool smiths ourselves, we have naturally been exploring how tools can help with these practices. Our goal is to build a team collaboration platform that understands our development process, enables pervasive transparency, and supports collaboration for distributed teams. This talks reports experience in building and developing with such a platform (Jazz).

    EEB2: The evolution of software development environments

  • Nuno Sebastiao European Space Agency
  • Session (75 Min.)

    Usually software is developed using stovepipe approach which fails to deliver on large scale projects. Realizing this, ESA's EGOS initiative promotes product families based on a unified framework. In this presentation we discuss how this initiative leverages on two key aspects: MDSD and Eclipse and how ESA sees the evolution of software engineering and software development environments.

    EEB3: Eclipse application as a service provider node in the SOA world

    Session (75 Min.)

    With combination of Axis and Java EE, OSGi on Server enables an Eclipse application to be a first class citizen in the SOA era. It enables us to place Eclipse plug-ins and wrap them as a Web Service and this, enabling them as a service provider and not just as a consumer. We used this technology in the OHF project powering a set of Healthcare .NET and LAMP applications through this technology.

    EEB4: Faster, better, more consistent: adding a Software Factory to Eclipse

    Session (75 Min.)

    Speed, quality and consistency are important ingredients of successful development projects. Developers are using patterns, best-practices and partial code generators in order to achieve this in their code base. However, success is not guaranteed. Using a software factory (with model-transformations and code-generators) the target software architecture can be enforced resulting in better software.

    EEB5: JFire: ERP goes Eclipse

  • Alexander Bieber NightLabs Consulting GmbH
  • Short Talk (30 Min.)

    The JFire project aims to be a base on which Java/Eclipse developers implementing ERP or trading applications can build upon. This talk shortly describes the technical base of the framework and shows how extensions can be realized. Additionally it discusses business cases that might build around JFire and presents applications and companies that have already started doing so.

    EEB6: Using XML-based Markup Language for Developing RCP Applications

  • Aleksey Aristov WeigleWilczek GmbH
  • Stephan Wilczek WeigleWilczek GmbH
  • Short Talk (30 Min.)

    The Rich Client Markup Language (RCML) combines XML and JavaScript to program and configure rich clients based on Eclipse's Rich Client Platform (RCP) in a very efficient and cost effective way. RCML allows you to quickly build interactive, Java-based rich client applications based on SWT/JFace.

    EEB7: The state of Eclipse and Linux distributions

  • Andrew Overholt Red Hat
  • Short Talk (30 Min.)

    The Eclipse on Linux Distributions Project aims to "Bring Eclipse technology to Linux distribution users." This talk will give an overview of the current status of Eclipse technology in Linux distributions. Current issues blocking the further adoption of Eclipse technology by the Free and Open Source Software communities will be discussed. Work to resolve these issues will also be presented.

    EEB8: General Session: Quo Vadis Eclipse Eco System

  • Sebastian Meyen Software & Support Verlag
  • Mike Milinkovich Eclipse Foundation, Inc.
  • Mik Kersten Tasktop Technologies
  • Erich Gamma IBM OTI Labs, Zürich
  • Session (75 Min.)

    This Eclipse Forum Europe General Session represents a mixture of people who stand for the eco system, for business based on Eclipse plus some brand-new technology aspects. Finally there will be a panel discussion and some Q&A by the audience.

    EEB9: Business Process Management und Eclipse

  • Robert Sauer SunGard
  • Business Process Management Day

    BPM-getriebene Projekte stellen an beteiligte Entwickler oft hohe Ansprüche bezüglich der Breite zu integrierender Technologien. Zur Vermeidung von Produktivitätsverlusten muss daher eine gute IDE-Unterstützung von Anfang bis Ende gewährleistet werden. Im Rahmen des Vortrages werden sowohl das Potential einer nahtlosen Integration von BPM-Werkzeugen in die Eclipse-Umgebung, als auch eine Variante der Umsetzung einer solchen Integration in das JDT (Modellvalidierung, Debugging), WTP (Rapid Prototyping) u.a. vorgestellt.

    Zeit: 26. April 2007, 14.00-14.45 h
