Type Classes in Scala Explained
by Vlad Patryshev
Agenda Not Set Yet
Room Not Assigned
The notion of type class is shrouded in a mystery. Even people that use it mostly cannot explain what it is. In this talk I explain type classes in simple terms, give examples, show how it is elegantly presented in Scala and give more examples.

Monoids For Regular Programmers
by Vlad Patryshev
Agenda Not Set Yet
Room Not Assigned
Monoid is the simplest structure from algebra, and you encounter it every day. I give you a bunch of examples, a good definition, and some specialized monoids.
It turns out trees, bags, sets are pretty much related with this notion.
The code is in Scala, but no knowledge of Scala is required, just be willing to understand the things that are not even new.

Consuming web services asynchronously with...
by Chris Richardson
Agenda Not Set Yet
Room Not Assigned
A modular, polyglot architecture has many advantages but it also adds complexity since each incoming request typically fans out to multiple distributed services. For example, in an online store application the information on a product details page - description, price, recommendations, etc - comes from numerous services. To minimize response time and improve scalability, these services must be invoked concurrently. However, traditional concurrency mechanisms are low-level, painful to use and error-prone.
In this talk you will learn about some powerful yet easy to use abstractions for consuming web services asynchronously. We will compare the various implementations of futures that are available in Java, Scala and JavaScript. You will learn how to use reactive observables, which are asynchronous data streams, to access web services from both Java and JavaScript. We will describe how these mechanisms let you write asynchronous code in a very straightforward, declarative fashion.

Scala for Java Developers
by Ramnivas Laddad
Agenda Not Set Yet
Room Not Assigned
Scala is a language that every Java developer needs to pay attention to. It uniquely combines object orientation and static typing with functional programming, which leads to much simpler, yet efficient code. It also has enough new ideas, especially for a Java developer, to make programming fun. Scala can also leverage the Java ecosystem effectively, so all the libraries and frameworks you've come to trust may be used seamlessly. This session will take you on a tour of the Scala language exploring both the object oriented and functional sides. It will examine a series of examples that will convince you to go and study Scala further.
Ramnivas Laddad is a well-known expert in enterprise Java, especially in the area of AOP and Spring. He is a Spring Framework and Cloud Foundry committer. Ramnivas is also the author of AspectJ in Action, the best-selling book on AOP and AspectJ that has been lauded by industry experts for its presentation of practical and innovative AOP applications to solve real-world problems. He has spoken at many leading industry events including JavaOne, JavaPolis, No Fluff Just Stuff, and SpringOne.
