Conferences and Events

[Werner Keil]

Hi,

Aside from JavaOne there are a couple of other conferences and events in the next couple of months, sorry if I start with European events mosty, please add your suggestions

• World IoT Day, Globally April 9, 2014: http://iotday.org/
  I plan to participate in the IoT MeetUp Zurich that day, presenting JSR 363
  
• EclipseCon France and Unconference, Toulouse, June 18-19, 2014: https://www.eclipsecon.org/france2014/unconference
  The Unconference is especially for Working Groups like Science IWG, as well as others like IoT or LocationTech. 
  JSR 363 happens to be of interest to all 3, due to earlier approaches like 275 or the existing Unitsofmeasurement.org API both used by different Eclipse projects
• Java Forum Stuttgart, July 17, 2014: http://www.java-forum-stuttgart.de/de/Home.html (so far only German)
  I proposed a JSR 363 session, let's see if it's accepted. As I am based in Stuttgart I am likely to attend in some form, at least something around Adopt-a-JSR, should the main talk not be accepted
• IoTCon, Berlin Sep 1-3, 2014: http://iotcon.de/2014/cfp 
  
• M2M Innovation World Congress, Marseille, Sep 22-24, 2014: http://www.m2minnovationworldcongress.com/
  
• JavaOne US 2014, San Francisco, Sep 28-Oct 2, 2014: http://www.oracle.com/javaone/index.html
• JAX London 2014: Oct 13-15, 2014: http://jaxlondon.com/2014/
• DevoXX (Nov 2014, not sure if the date is set yet, no CFP at this time)
• JMaghreb 3.0 Hopefully we might get a session there, either by one or the other Sped Lead (one speaks French, which could be a bonus;-) or EG Members like Mohamed and others from MoroccoJUG

I am not listing further Unconferences, MeetUps, Hackathons or DemoCamps now. At least some selected Eclipse DemoCamps between late May and August (Trondheim) are also going to happen and feature Unit-API.

Kind Regards,

Werner

Hi,

My JSR 363 talk was accepted by JavaZone. 

The program was just published for JavaZone 2014. See what else is on alongside JSR 363 at: http://2014.javazone.no/program.html

Aside from JavaZone, there will be JSR 363 related sessions in Trondheim (also NO) next month at

Eclipse DemoCamp and Maker Faire

as well as 

JMaghreb 3.0, November in Casablanca

See the Unit-API Calendar http://unitsofmeasurement.github.io/pages/calendar.html for more,

Hi,

Ralph at Eclipse just mentioned a soon closing CFP (Sep 2) for Embedded World in Nürnberg (likely the same venue where I just spoke also about 363)

Anybody interested to propose either a general Java (ME) Embedded session, or specific to JSR 363, Sensors and Units?

Regards,

Werner

The Embedded World Conference in Nuremberg, Germany is one of the largest embedded conferences in the world. Last year they had over 26000 visitors, 1500 conference attendees and 856 exhibitors.

In 2015, Embedded World Germany, will be held from 24 - 26 February. The Eclipse Foundation has an opportunity to organize a large booth ( 50-60 sqm) that we would share with our member companies. Each member company will be provided space to setup their own demo stations and promotional signs. The cost for each member will be approximately 2,400Euros (6sqm) or 3,600Euros (9sqm). We believe that this is an interesting opportunity for our member companies as well as for the new and old working groups to present themselves to a large group of attendees.

While there is still some cost involved, we believe that we can offer a very good price/value proposition.

Please let us know if your company or the working group is interested in participating in the event. We have only a limited number of exhibition spaces available.

If you are planning on participating, please contact me or Jelena Alter

PS: The deadline for call-for-papers is is September 2. It would be great to see submissions from the various working groups!

If you are at JavaOne this year, please join us at a JSR 363 Hackergarten in the Exhibition hall today between 10:30 and 2:30 local time:

CU,

M2M Innovation World Congress has another CFP this year: http://www.m2minnovationworldcongress.com/call-for-papers

Most likely too shallow and not technical enough, a reason why the CFP was wasted last year, but let's see, if Jean-Marie thinks it was worth it. Marseille is relatively close to Toulouse and more importantly JavaOne is at least a month later this year;-)

A quick reminder that 2 sessions at Social Media Week 2015 in Copenhagen and Hamburg (one in English, the other preferably German) are taking place on February 24 and 26, also see in the calendar http://unitsofmeasurement.github.io/pages/calendar.html

CU there if you plan to attend either event,

Hi,

Filip who is also based in Oslo got a JSR 385 presentation at JavaZone aproved:

https://2018.javazone.no/program/48dbefe3-fedc-43f5-8b8e-e9f8ac92f043

Literally on the 4th anniversary of the JSR 363 Final Release on Sep 13 btw.;-)

Congratulations to Filip and thanks for spreading the word.

I'll submit the EDR in the next few days, and unless the PMO takes a bit longer, it could even be published by then or soon afterwards.

Regards,

Werner
