Travis Hill
Scaling Web Edition Applications
Learn how to take your Web Edition applications to the next level! This session will demonstrate how to scale your web application to support thousands of users and provide true redundancy so your application is still online and available even when a server unexpectedly fails.
Travis is a technology entrepreneur and angel investor. In the 90s he created one of the first BBS platforms that could support multiple lines on a single workstation, without any additional software. Later he created the first widely available, multi-protocol instant messaging client. More recently, Travis founded Media Enforcer- the first business to comprehensively monitor peer-to-peer networks and other new online distribution systems.

Joe Strout
Data Mapped UI
This session will include a presentation of a new framework Joe has developed through years of experience writing business apps that makes it easier than ever to build a UI for a database and other data-intensive apps. Controls automatically update themselves to reflect the data model, and when manipulated by the user, automatically update the model to reflect the control, updating any related controls in turn. All this happens with little to no coding, greatly reducing development time and the possibility of errors.
Software development has been Joe's passion since elementary school. He obtained his bachelor's degree at Miami University in 1994, and master's degree from UCSD in 1997. Since then, he's served in several tech companies, including as senior engineer at REAL Software, Inc., and CTO at Inspiring Applications, Inc. Joe is also a writer with over 30 publications in such journals as MacTech and Dr. Dobb's Journal. When not programming, Joe loves to spend time with his family, bike and hike, and build custom robots.
