MAC OS X TECH TALKS
Friday 7th May : Stockholm, SWEDEN Monday 10th May : Berlin, GERMANY ===================================================================
Dear Developer,
You've read about Mac OS X's UNIX-based, open source core in technical publications and the excellent development environment it offers. Now here's your chance to evaluate Mac OS X as a development platform in one afternoon.
You are cordially invited to attend one of two Mac OS X Tech Talks, brought to you by the Apple Developer Connection, in either Stockholm or Berlin (All presentations will be held in English)
------------------------- WHAT YOU'LL LEARN -------------------------
This free, half-day briefing provides an overview of the Unix underpinnings of Mac OS X and its associated development environment for developers and IT professionals. An array of topics will be covered, including:
Mac OS X and Developer Tools :
In this session we will present an overview of Mac OS X and introduce Apple's Developer Tools. We will describe Xcode, Apple's new IDE featuring advanced technologies such as Fix and Continue, Zero Link and Distributed Build. We will show you how to create and start new application projects, and demonstrate documentation access and search, source-level debugging, and integrated source control. We will also introduce new features in Interface Builder, Apple’s innovative UI design application and present examples of applications that are based on Xcode.
Optimizing for G5 :
Learn how to optimize your software for the 64-bit Power Mac G5. In this session we will present an overview of the architectural features and design goals of the Power Mac G5. We will describe the PowerPC G5 processor jointly developed by Apple and IBM and the high bandwidth system architecture employed on the Power Mac and Xserve. We will illustrate specific techniques to accelerate your software through specific code examples and real-live applications. We will also demonstrate how Apple's performance optimization tools can help you examine and improve the performance of your code.
Hardware Technology Update :
In this session we will present a high-level overview of the capabilities of USB, FireWire, Bluetooth, AirMac and other I/O technologies on Mac OS X, iTunes, iPhoto and the iPod. Learn about the latest developments with Bluetooth, USB 2.0, FireWire 800 and 802.11g and the standard drivers and capabilities already built into Mac OS X. Lastly, we will discuss how networked media devices can work with iTunes and iPhoto and opportunities for developing solutions that connect to the iPod.
Enterprise Update :
Apple has returned to the Enterprise. Learn about today's IT trends and how Apple's strengths in technology, ease of use and cost performance position the Mac OS X platform for success in the Enterprise. This session will present an overview of Apple's hardware and software technologies, including Xserve G5, which delivers over 30 gigaflops in a 1U enclosure, and Xgrid, which uses Rendezvous to make cluster computing easy. We will also describe initiatives in open standards and high performance computing, including an overview of the cluster computer project at Virginia Tech. Lastly, we will review existing Enterprise Alliances and describe opportunities for developers in the Enterprise.
