  2. With so much customer interaction happening on social web sites right now, companies need to know what kind of information they can extract from them. Can we work out where our customers are? What they want, as a group, from our products? Can we apply qualitative measures to the information we can mine?

  3. We've all seen refactoring sessions that deal with the very granular means of refactoring code, but how do you get started? What do you do on day 1 when you are faced with a project wide refactoring job, Something like a VB6 to C# 4.0 project? Lets get together and discuss ways in which we can tackle such projects. Lets also talk about the correctness continuum, where about on that line should we be aiming for when refactoring on this scale? What part do functional decomposition and sub-tree refactoring indices play? Do you have an opinion? Are you just curious?…

  5. Many organizations rely on Microsoft SharePoint to manage content and aid collaboration. It has become their tool of choice because of its flexibility. However, this flexibility doesn’t come without challenges. Since a SharePoint farm can grow organically, backing up and restoring of all of its components in a consistent fashion is significantly more challenging than backing up closed, static files. In this session, we will share strategies for protecting and recovering collaboration infrastructures, including SharePoint 2003, 2007 and 2010. Participants should walk away with a feeling that they can save the day if disaster ever strikes.

  6. Despite many private sector businesses now seeing a much improved economic outlook, many still consider the cuts in both manpower and budget restraints made during the last 2 years will remain tightly controlled throughout the next 12-18 months.

    Through several discussions both with businesses and with other IT consultants, Andrew Bettany from the University of York draws the conclusion that businesses will continue to look for further cost reductions through some or all of the following:

    efficiencies – using technology to make a quicker ROI outsourcing where possible rather than employing skills automation of repetitive tasks rental rather than purchase…

  10. The purpose of this theme is conveying ideas to overcome the economic crisis through hardware and software. We can do more with hardware and software to help find solutions more economical. The Green IT and many solutions already exist and are being implemented, but discussing with the public can find more ways, ideas, strategies to try with less money to make at least the same.This is a current problem that faculties and universities are facing and trying to solve.

  13. Discuss the changing view of application migration work from being a sunk cost to a mechanism for ongoing efficiency. Have packaging processes changed? Have virtualization technologies been introducted to help ease the migration? If so, what impact has this had on timelines and skills required for your ongoing packaging process lifecycle? Have the remediation issues detected during a migration project had an impact on software procurement and assessement?

    Join this interactive session to discuss some great tips on how to set up your own user group, and more importantly how to make it succeed and grow. Combining tips from many successful and experienced UG leaders, Andrew…

  16. Enterprises often use a reliable IBM mainframe or midrange system to run their line-of-business applications. But Windows is the preferred front end for new capabilities that need access to those systems. IBM on one side, .NET on the other—how do you get them to work together? Applications can be mission-critical, and can have a proven record of reliability. Similarly, companies might not have the ability to replace existing hardware and infrastructure investments, or to incur the cost of rewriting mainframe applications.Microsoft BizTalk Host Integration Server 2010 offers key enabling technologies that allow enterprise organizations to integrate their mission-critical host applications…
