The Art and Science of Dashboard Design
by Lee Lukehart
Agenda Not Set Yet Room Not Assigned
To correctly portray complex data a developer must utilize modern data visualization techniques. This session will describe how to create data graphics (charts) and dashboards that are concise, attractive, and usable. Learn these practical design principles that apply to every data graphic you produce. Without this firsthand knowledge one can innocently construct visuals that erroneously represent data and mislead viewers. I will cover Important Visual Perception Patterns to Know, the Top Common Chart Design Errors, and The Dashboard Design Mantra: Simplicity, Usability, Efficacy, Interactivity. I will also share the knowledge framework for creating effective graphical data dashboards. Apply the best design pattern every time using the "three threes" -- a convenient memory hook representing the distinctions between systems that “monitor, measure, and manage” performance metrics for “operations, tactical or strategic” purposes. Become a hero of interactive data visualization. Copious examples included.

Lee is president of SavvyData, a database consulting and training firm based in the SF Bay Area. Lee led the design team that created CRM portals for Microsoft, HP, and Verisign. He has presented at Macworld Expo, SVCC and other developer conferences. Lee's current focus is building data visualization solutions for legacy or newly-collected data, to help users discover meaningful trends, patterns and exceptions. It is said that on a good day he can make a trend line with only 1 data point. ;-)

Agenda Not Set Yet Room Not Assigned
Visual Studio LightSwitch is the easiest way to create modern, data-centric, line of business applications for the enterprise. In this demo-heavy session, we will build and deploy end-to-end, a full-featured business app that runs in Azure and provides rich user experiences tailored for modern devices. We’ll cover how LightSwitch helps you focus your time on what makes your application unique, allowing you to easily implement common business application scenarios—such as integrating multiple data sources, data validation, authentication, and access control. We’ll cover complex business rules and advanced data services for facilitating custom mobile reporting dashboards. You will also see how developers can use their knowledge of HTML5 and JavaScript to customize their apps with custom controls, client-side logic, and CSS themes.

Building apps with Backbone.js and Require.js
by Sidney Maestre
Agenda Not Set Yet Room Not Assigned
When developing HTML5 application, your code is bound to get more complex over time.  Employing design patterns like MVC are important for separating concerns and creating more modular and reusable code.  Backbone.js is one of the more popular JavaScript frameworks to help you do this.  Unfortunately, like most open source, the documentation is a work in progress. In this hands on session, we'll walk you through a series of examples that build on each other as I show how the moving parts work together.  We'll add the StackMob JavaScript SDK to extend backbone.js and persist your data in the cloud.  We'll wrap up our session looking at how require.js allows you to break your backbone.js code into discreet modules during development. Once you are ready to deploy you can use require.js to build an optimized version of your javascript for production. For those wanting to live code, please bring along a fully charged laptop.

Sidney is eating, sleeping and breathing all things mobile as StackMob's Platform Evangelist. He spent the last three years working with jQuery to build mobile apps and sharing his knowledge with others. These efforts included speaking at Adobe MAX, SenchaCon, HTML5DevConf, Silicon Valley Code Camp, creating a jQuery Mobile course at uDemy.com and organizing the Bay Area Mobile meetup.
