June 8th @ 6:00 PM - Functional Programming in Java 8 with Dr. Venkat Subramaniam

[nateb...@gmail.com]

Java 8 is the most significant change to the language since it's introduction, surpassing changes seen in any of the previous versions. It is not merely syntactical change or addition of a few extra features, it's a paradigm shift. Come to this presentation to learn about the power and capabilities of functional programming using Java 8 and how to benefit from those when building Java applications.

He has trained and mentored thousands of software developers in the US, Canada, Europe, and Asia, and is a regularly-invited speaker at several international conferences. Venkat helps his clients effectively apply and succeed with sustainable agile practices on their software projects.

Venkat is a (co)author of multiple technical books, including the 2007 Jolt Productivity award winning book Practices of an Agile Developer. You can find a list of his books at agiledeveloper.com. You can reach him by email at ven...@agiledeveloper.com or on twitter at @venkat_s.
