Guten Tag
Um es vorwegzunehmen, wir würden Sie als Mitwirkenden in der Open Source
Bewegung am Freitag, 24. Oktober 2003 gerne an der Universität Bern als
Teilnehmer des Kickoff-Meetings begrüssen dürfen.
Worum es geht: Wir sind im Begriff eine Plattform zu initiieren, bei
welcher sich Open Source Entwickler mit hochwertigen Lösungen einem
interessierten Publikum aus den Bereichen KMU, Dienstleister, Bund,
Kantonen, Gemeinden, Forschung und Industrie vorstellen können.
Reger Ideen- und Gedankenaustausch und die Förderung der Open
Source-Idee sowie den Aufbau von Geschäftsbeziehungen sind unsere
Hauptanliegen. Die Veranstaltung soll eine Ergänzung zu den bestehenden
Technik-lastigen Events und Manager-Tagungen bieten und nach dem
Bottom-Up-Prinzip organisiert werden. Dazu führen wir am Freitag, 24.
Oktober 2003 ein Orientierungs-Treffen durch, das uns eine Tuchfühlung
mit Entwicklern, Dienstleistern und Anwender erlaubt.
Mit besonderer Freude haben wir Wolfgang Tietz, Informatikstrategieorgan
Bund, Leiter des Bereichs Architekturen, Standards und Technologien, als
Keynote-Referenten gewinnen können. Er wird über die Erfahrungen der
Bundesverwaltung mit Open Source Software und deren zukünftigem Einsatz
beim Bund berichten. Ausserdem wird Oscar Nierstrasz, Professor am
Institut für angewandte Mathematik an der Universität Bern, als Patron
des Events seine Unterstützung dafür bekanntgeben. Und nicht zu letzt
sind Sie als Teilnehmer gefragt, Ihre Vorstellungen einer Open Source
Begegnungs-Plattform einem interessierten Publikum kund zu tun. Gerne
können Sie uns bereits im Vorfeld des Orientierungs-Treffens Ihre
Meinung und Ideen mitteilen.
Nachfolgendend das Programm des Kickoff-Veranstaltung am Freitag, 24.

AGENDA
------
17:00 - 18:15h: Talk incl. Q/A
Afterwards you are invited to a refreshment.
ABSTRACT
--------
Java has taken the world by storm. Its vibrant and dynamic platform offers
today a real alternative to older languages, even those as established as
Smalltalk. Factors such as uncertainty in terms of vendor support, or
expert staff shortages should increase significantly the need for Smalltalk
to Java migrations. Indeed, re-development is a very costly and lengthy
alternative, frought with risks.
Smalltalk and Java show significant differences, posing problems when
attempting to automate a translation process (for instance, dynamic typing
versus static typing or the fact that blocks do not exist in Java).
DirectJava is a 4-step iterative process : Automated Smalltalk source code
analysis, Types Detection, Correspondence Repository building, and the
Translation Engine itself. Specific code translation examples illustrate
how DirectJava is able to deliver such a high degree of accuracy in
automated translation.
Case Study: CCR (Caisse Centrale de Réassurance) part of the top 25
reinsurers in the world has successfully migrated applications of over 1
million lines of code from VA Smalltalk into VA Java using DirectJava.
BIOGRAPHY
---------
Olivier Picot is the founder and General manager of Object'ive, a company
specialized in Object-Oriented Technology. He has 10 years experience in
software architecture and engineering, and is the main developer behind
DirectJava, an automated translation tool from Smallalk to Java. His
experience includes software development for IBM as well as consulting in
the area of application migrations.

Einladung zum ersten Vortrag im Wintersemester 2003/2004:
Dienstag, 21. Oktober 2003, 17.30 Uhr
in der Uni Engehalde, Engehaldenstrasse 8, 3012 Bern, Hörsaal 001 (1. UG)
Referent: Dr. Leszek Lilien (Department of Computer Sciences, Purdue
University, West Lafayette, Indiana, USA)
Developing Pervasive Trust Paradigm for Authentication and Authorization
Traditionally, authentication and authorization (A&A) in computer systems
guard only user interfaces, thus providing only a perimeter defense against
attacks. We search for an A&A approach that satisfies the requirements of
multiple lines of defense and defense in depth. After reviewing and
classifying a variety of security paradigms, we propose the paradigm of
pervasive trust. It is analogous to a social model of interaction, where
trust is constantly --if often unconsciously-- applied. In an initial study
performed in our lab, we investigate using trust for the perimeter-defense
A&A model, in which the capability to use trust ratings for users was
applied for enhancing the role-based access control mechanism.
Dr. Leszek Lilien received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University
of Pittsburgh. His research at Purdue University concentrates on trusted
computing and computer security.

SSUG the Swiss Smalltalk User Group in collaboration with CHOOSE is
glad to invite you to the next half-day tutorial given by J. Pelrine
(MetaProg GmbH):
"SCRUM: A Methodology to Keep the Team Going" on tuesday, October
14th 2003 from 14h to 18h at the IAM Room 001.
http://www.iam.unibe.ch/~ssug/Events/20031014.html
Scrum, one of the agile processes, has been used to develop systems and
products since 1995 on thousands of projects in hundreds of
organizations. Scrum implements in several days and delivers
increments of functionality within thirty days. Scrum wraps existing
engineering practices. Because Scrum is a development management
process, it has also been used for such projects as marketing,
research, and hardware product development.
In this talk, we'll discuss how Scrum and all agile processes work, the
theory behind them and their underlying practices of inspection and
adaptation. Then weíll look at Scrum's detailed practices of
iterations, increments of code, emergence of requirements and
design, and self-organization of teams. Through these practices,
Scrum introduces a heartbeat of regular productivity to an
organization that foments customer and engineering collaboration. If XP
is wrapped by Scrum, XP's engineering practices ensure the quality
of this code and stability of the emerging product, while Scrum
provides the organizational framework which allows development to
flourish.
