Windows 8 development with XAML/C#
Windows 8 is without a doubt an intriguing opportunity for every developer. For people with prior WPF, Silverlight or Windows Phone experience, this is the continuation of a journey started in 2006 in the XAML landscape. For others, the learning curve is steeper but made easier by the active community in these platforms. From networking to sensors, from best practices to visual tools, this half-day should give you a kickstart in the Windows 8 world.

Mastering Continuous Integration with Jenkins
Students will come away from this workshop with a solid understanding of how to implement a Continuous Integration environment in their organization. They will be able to set up a working instance of Jenkins server, complete with automated builds, tests, code quality audits and reports, and automatic deployment to an integration server. They will also be able to integrate Jenkins with other tools in the development environment, such as issue tracking systems and source code browsers.

13.30-16.30
Rediscovering Modularity with Restructure101
The principles of modularity are applied routinely in the development of classes, but not to the organization of the classes themselves. This is unscalable; inevitably it will extract a big tax on development dollars as the team starts to drown in an ever-expanding sea of classes. This tutorial gives concrete strategies for constructing a hierarchical, levelized, modular structure for an existing code-base, with minimal impact on working code. Many pattern-action-result examples are given.

Hypermedia and ASP.NET Web API, where do you want to go today?
Building hypermedia systems these days is all the rage. Those who achieve building hypermedia systems are promised fame, success and mountains of riches. OK that’s not true! But hypermedia does help you to build systems where the client and server can evolve somewhat independently, and that is a big deal. Come this talk and we’ll deep dive into exactly what hypermedia is and different ways to achieve building hypermedia driven systems with ASP.NET Web API.

Building Real-Time Web Applications with ASP.NET SignalR
WebSockets is introducing web developers to a whole new world of real-time programming but that isn't the end of the story. SignalR gives ASP.NET developers the ability to build real-time web apps that work both with and without websockets and with an API so easy to use it almost seems like magic (really). You want scale too? No problem; SignalR scales out with your application. Come and see why web programming will never be the same again.

Retrofitting a software architecture to an existing code-base
We can do without architecture early on, but at some point a clearly communicated architecture offers big productivity benefits to developers who otherwise drown in the expanding implementation-level detail. When you realize you are heading for a Big Ball of Mud, you have 3 choices – start over, suffer on, or knock your codebase into shape. This talk outlines principles, options and examples using Structure101 to get the best return for the cost and intellectual effort invested in a codebase.

Async in C# 5.0 - No More Callbacks!
For modern connected apps, asynchronous programming is necessary to ensure responsiveness of devices and scalability of services. However, asynchronous programming tends to be a teeth-grinding quagmire of dynamically wired-up callbacks, busting any attempt at well-structured code and practically ensuring bugs and poor error handling. C# 5.0 changes all that. The new 'async' language feature along with futures/promises-based APIs bring back the good old imperative experience. Come see how!
