The seminar will be held in Fort Washington, Pa on September 13th at
the Fort Washington Hotel and Conference Center from 8:30 am until
5:00pm.

The course fee is $295 for non-user group members and $260 for user
group members. This fee offering is a special arrangement between
Washington Area Midrange Users Group and MidAtlantic Midrange.
Members of other AS/400 User groups may also apply under the user
group rate.

Please see below for further information and registration
instructions.  For any further questions or reservations, contact
K.B. Soni at 301-590-7121 or email kbsoni@....

===================================================================

             MidAtlantic Midrange is offering "Migrating From SEU and
PDM to WDSC...And Beyond" With Joe Pluta

             This one-day seminar explores topics that will help
enhance your skill sets and abilities in iSeries Access in the
latest V5R4 technology environment.  During this packed seminar we
will be covering the very timely topics of:

       What you will learn:

In order to use the tools, you need to know about them.
You'll learn about Eclipse, the tool that is taking the Java
development world by storm, and how WDSC is descended from it.
You'll also get an understanding of how the Rational tooling from
IBM plays a part in the whole process.

       Migrating from SEU and PDM to WDSC
In this extended introduction to the WDSC tooling for RPG developers
you will learn how to perform all of the day-to-day tasks you do
today with SEU and PDM, as well as the many unique features of WDSC
that will make you more productive from day one.

       Web Application Architectures
Here you'll be introduced to the entire spectrum of web development,
starting with the basics of HTTP and moving all the way to the
advanced architectures of Java ServerPages and even Ajax. This is no
buzzword heavy blue-sky presentation, either. Joe's extensive
background in client/ server design is brought to the table to
provide you with real world techniques that integrate existing
business logic with the latest interface technologies.

       RPG and Java Interoperability
The biggest truth today is that no single technology provides the
total solution, and this is especially true in web application
design. Joe explains the ways that Java and RPG can be integrated to
provide stunning new applications.

       Debugging Web Applications
The day ends up with a live demonstration in which Joe deploys and
debugs a real, working web application before your eyes using only
WDSC on the workstation and RPG on the host. No gimmicks, no canned
demos, this is the real thing right before your eyes.


Joe Pluta of Pluta Brothers Design, Inc. has worked on and around
the IBM midrange for nearly 30 years and focuses on moving legacy
systems and their programmers into the next generation of web-
enabled applications. Joe has written over a hundred articles on all
aspects of IBM midrange technology, and his books on Eclipse and
WDSC are required reading in colleges and businesses around the
country. He is an expert on WDSC, Java, web development and EGL and
how to make them interact with RPG business logic. He mentors and
teaches courses around the country.


Seminar starts at 8:30 AM and ends at 5:00 PM and will be held on
Sept 13 at the Fort Washington Hotel and Conference Center at 432
Pennsylvania Avenue, Fort Washington, PA 19034 (215-643-3000)


The course fee is $295 for non-user group members and $260 for user
group members. This fee offering is a special arrangement between
Washington Area Midrange Users Group and MidAtlantic Midrange.
Members of other AS/400 User groups may also apply under the user
group rate.

The DVCUG web page showing 5:30-6:30 for Registration and Networking is correct.

The event reminder from Yahoo Groups was just sending out it's reminder mid-day
to everyone.

A very good question though.  Thanks for bringing it up.

A Power Day of Java and PHP Technology - "Grounds for Java & PHP"
With Blair Wyman from IBM Rochester

This one-day seminar explores topics that will help enhance your
skill sets and abilities in iSeries Java and PHP in the latest V5R4
technology environment. During this packed seminar we will be
covering the very timely topics of:

Grounds for Java & PHP - Series PHP: The 'H' is for 'Huge'

As programmers, we are pretty good about drawing logical
conclusions, but it doesn't take a programmer to figure this much
out: IF a programming technology bursts onto the scene and steals
the show THEN there's probably something "interesting" going on
ENDIF. Join Blair for a heads up birds eye view the latest language
to iSeries - PHP.

Intro to Java Native Interfaces

The Java language provides a rich set of programming capabilities
everywhere it is supported.  By design, Java's powerful capabilities
are independent of the underlying hardware and operating system;
portability is a hallmark of Java.  But how is Java's portability
accomplished, and at what cost?

This session describes the requirements Java's portability places on
the systems that support the language, the crucial role played by so-
called "native code," and the architected ways that programmers can
use native code as part of their own Java applications and solutions.

A full spectrum of approaches to native code "everything from Java's
Runtime.exec() through RPG's support for Java *OBJECT" will be
outlined, along with the relative costs and benefits of each.

By the end of this session, the attendee will understand: how Java
maintains portability, even in the design of its native interfaces,
how these native interfaces are used in various solutions, and how
to evaluate the use of native code in their own Java solutions.

Using the Java Native Interface (JNI)

Java uses virtual machine technology to provide common programming
facilities across a variety of operating system platforms.  For
programmers writing nothing but Java code, this is comforting: the
future value of that Java code is assured.

But what if a programmer needs to mix Java and non-Java ("native")
code in one solution?  Besides the obvious "process-level" solutions
such as "Runtime.exec()" from Java, or "RUNJVA" from Command Entry --
  suppose the programmer needs finer-grained access to native code?
How can a platform-independent virtual machine provide access to
platform-dependent function?

The Java Native Interface (JNI) is a partial answer to this dilemma,
in the form of a specification that describes:

* How Java calls "native methods" procedures implemented in
another
language,
* How native code calls back into Java to interact with the VM,
* How a native program can "embed" a VM for Java in its own
processing.

By the end of this session, you will understand the initial
motivation for
JNI: to provide for VM-independent native methods; the two
distinct "sides" of the JNI: native methods and the Invocation API;
the complete set of programming facilities provided by the JNI the
role of JNI as a model for other platform-independent native
interfaces such as JVMTI.

Using the Java Virtual Machine Tools Interface (JVMTI)

Obviously, using Java code as part of any programmed solution means
using it with a Virtual Machine for Java.  While many of us are
familiar with various platform-specific tools (i.e. oscilloscopes,
JobWatcher, PTDV, svmon, tprof, WRKACTJOB, etc.), the challenge for
the Java architecture is to facilitate this type of tooling in a
platform-independent fashion.

The first version of this architecture separated "debugging"
from "profiling," and resulted in the Java VM Debug (JVMDI) and
Profiling (JVMPI) Interfaces in JDK 1.2.  While separating these
features makes logical sense (rarely is profiling done
simultaneously with debugging), the design overlap between these
interfaces suggested they ultimately be combined into a
single "tools" interface.

The result of this combination the JavaVirtual Machine Tools
Interface (JVMTI) is the subject of this session.  By the end of
this session you will understand:

* How the JVMTI is structured in terms of calls and data
structures
* How to write JVMTI agents that inspect and interrogate the VM
* How IBM can and does extend JVMTI in its new IBM Technology
VM for Java

JDK 1.5 Enhancements Overview

Java continues to evolve, in direct response to the wants and needs
of its developers. The latest version of Java supported on System i -
  JDK 1.5 - includes many new and enhanced features, in both the
language itself and the core set of Java library APIs.

This session begins with a brief overview of Java's evolution over
its five major releases, continues with a high-level survey of the
version 1.5 language enhancements, and wraps up with
selected "deeper dives" into a few of these enhancements using
examples and code snippets.

By the end of this session, you will be able to describe the 1.5
enhancements to Java:

* The basic types of enhancements included in version 1.5,
* The review and recommendation processes that made them
possible,
* Their possible impacts on existing code, andtheir positive
impact on the design of new or re-engineered code.

Blair Wyman works in the IBM Rochester lab specializing in Java and
PHP resources. He is a regular speaker at the IBM iSeries Technical
Conference and a many Local User Groups, as well as other national
iSeries technical conferences such as COMMON.

These seminars start at 8:30 AM and ends at 5:00 PM and will be held
on:

I just wanted to let everyone know that the Excel 2007 IBM Client
Access Add-In was resolved by the service pack SI 26879.

The symptoms were that within Excel, when you clicked the button in
the button bar to download or upload a file, nothing happened.  It
has now been fixed.

The last time that SPIN had a software engineer from NASA speak (back in the 1990's), it was one of the most interesting talks I had ever heard

Her talk was fascinating.  This one also sounds like another great topic and speaker!

SEIMENS is located one block from the Malvern HILTON where we often have our August DVCUG meeting. 
=============================================================================

The next meeting of the Philadelphia-Area SPIN will be held on December 11, 2006 6-8PM at Siemens, Malvern PA.
TOPIC: The Value of Managing the Review Process presented by Mike Chapman
More on this topic:
It is the thirtieth anniversary since Michael Fagan introduced his review process to the software world. Yet development organizations either have no review process or they are inefficient. The review process is central to the development cycle and affects every team member. The data to evaluate the process is now available and clearly shows that for each 100 KLOC gross savings exceeds $250,000 over the life of the project. This paper and presentation re-examines the issues related to the internal review process and presents very specific numbers that show the value and the trade-offs that have to be managed proactively.

More on Mike Chapman:
Mr. Chapman has eighteen years experience in software development including nine on development teams and nine on IV&V and IV&V research teams.  He is the Principal Investigator for NASA’s Metrics Data Program.  Now beginning its fifth year of operation, MDP collects software project artifacts; generates metrics on those projects; and makes the data available to the software community.  As part of the MDP effort, his team was tasked to automate and collect metrics on the review process for NASA’s Glenn Research Center, Marshall Space Flight Center, and for elements of Goddard Space Flight Center. His company, Integrated Software Metrics, Inc., commercialized the resulting tool, InSpec. 

 Using data from MDP he is co-author of the following IEEE published papers:
 Learning Early Lifecycle IV&V Quality Indicators; T. Menzies and J.S. Di Stefano and M. Chapman; IEEE Metrics '03; 2003

When Can We Test Less?; T. Menzies and J. Di Stefano and K. Ammar and K. McGill and P. Callis and R. Chapman and J, Davis; Accepted by IEEE Metrics'03; 2003;

 The agenda for the meeting includes:
6:00 - 6:30 Check-in,lite dinner, and networking
6:30 - 7:30 Presentation
7:30 - 8:00 Networking
