Scala - An Introduction

Scala is a general purpose programming language designed to express common programming patterns in a concise, elegant, and type-safe way. It smoothly integrates features of object-oriented and functional languages, enabling Java and other programmers to be more productive. Code sizes are typically reduced by a factor of two to three when compared to an equivalent Java application.

Speaker: Martin Schürrer und Michael Greifeneder, JSUG Core Team.

Coding in JavaScript with Prototype and Scriptaculous

Prototype is a JavaScript Framework that aims to ease development of dynamic web applications. Featuring a unique, easy-to-use toolkit for class-driven development and the nicest Ajax library around, Prototype is quickly becoming the codebase of choice for web application developers everywhere.

script.aculo.us provides you with easy-to-use, cross-browser user interface JavaScript libraries to make your web sites and web applications fly with an animation framework, drag and drop, Ajax controls, DOM utilities, and unit testing. It's an add-on to the Prototype framework.

Speaker: Thomas Fuchs is author of the script.aculo.us user interface JavaScript library, a member of the Prototype core team and a Ruby on Rails core alumnus.
