| [eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee] Suggested Themes for ECE |
|
All, I was reviewing the call for papers for ECE. I would like to suggest we include some themes/tracks for people to consider when submitting their ideas. In my experience this is important to set the overall tone of the conference. Below is what I would suggest. Anne, mentioned to me that it was suggested to use the old EclipseCon themes of Making with Eclipse, Making at Eclipse and Making Community. In my experience these themes are too inward looking and make it hard for external people to really understand what EclipseCon is all about. Ian ECE 2011 Proposed Themes 1. Better Application Lifecycle Management - Presentations and cases studies on the tools and techniques that improve the application development and management lifecycle. Suggested topics include Mylyn, testing tools, integrating Maven and Hudson, test driven development, migrating to git and others. 2. Models in the Real World - Eclipse modeling technology has become a standard for organizations using a model driven development approach. Topic for this track will explore how Eclipse modeling technology is being used to the technical challenges for these organizations. 3. Building Industry Solutions with Eclipse - Eclipse has proven to be a powerful platform for building flexible and extensible applications. Many organizations are building platforms that address the needs of a specific industry, like banking, insurance, automotive, aerospace and others. This track will explore the technology, architecture and policies required to build industry solutions with Eclipse runtime technology. 4. 10 Years of Eclipse - At EclipseCon Europe 2011 we will be celebrating 10 years since the first release of Eclipse in November 2001. During these 10 years Eclipse has had substantial influence on how people build software, perceive open source software and view developer tools. Tell us how you and your organization have changed over the last 10 years and what is in store for the future of Eclipse, open source and software development. --
