A Recipe For A Happy Software Development Team - Michał Śliwoń

Making software developers happy is hard. They're smart, they put a lot of energy and emotion in what they do and their road to becoming better is full of obstacles: slow computers, a need to do guesstimates and ongoing Internet debate whether to put a semicolon at the of line or not.We were lucky, things worked for us. After a while spent together, countless rounds of feedback - we found our rhythm. Boiled in uncertainty, heated by questioning everything, topped with a spoonful of team initiatives - our team was ready to be served. We found ourselves happy to be working with each other.I'd like to share with you our recipe for a happy software development team hoping some of the ingredients or procedures will enrich your team as well.

A robot is born - Martin Gravråk

How CAD software, 3D printers and cheap parts from eBay have made designing and building robots a lot easier for the average geek.

I’ve spent the last few weeks creating a robot arm from molten plastic. The parts have been modeled in Autodesk Inventor and 3D printed in PLA, assembled and brought to life with lots of servos and an Arduino microcontroller. In this lightning talk I’ll share the mistakes and lessons I’ve learnt from this hobby project. You will learn the basics, see the robot and get some tips for how you can make your own.

Improving web performance - Ronald Mavarez

Have you been in a queue and thought everyone in front is just so slow!!! Its annoying isn't it?. Now imagine that you designed web pages like that, wouldn't you want to fix it!

Exactly the same is happening with most web pages where the resources haven't been optimized and in this session we will talk about preventing slow files and loading our code faster.

I will show you some small simple but clever optimisations that are quick to implement but will have a big impact in the performance of your web applications.

This talk requires some understanding of JavaScript and HTML5.

Composing 3D Objects in WebGL - Sean Trelford (8)

In this live session I will demonstrate the use of a domain-specific language, written in F#, to compose complex 3D scenes live in WebGL.

Making a web-powered MIDI-controled synthesizer - Stian Veum Møllersen

The web is becoming a very interesting platform for creative experimentation. The introduction of the WebMIDIAPI and the capabilities of the WebAudioAPI for creating sounds has opened the doors for musical expressions in a myriad of ways.

One such way is to build a simple polyphonic supersaw synthesizer which you can control with a MIDI-enabled interface (such as a tiny keyboard). This is easier than it sounds, and I will show you how. Leaving this talk you will be equipped tostart creating music and explore the creative side of the web.

How does the common cold spread through a group of friends or co-workers. What about other contagions? Can a contagion be used for good? Doc explores how things like disease, politics, and even moods travel through (meat-space) social networks. What impact do we have on others? What impact do they have on us? And what does this mean for members of the software development community?

This is a new talk, based on benchmarking work I did for the NoSQL database company AerospikeDB. In this talk you will learn best practices for performing database benchmarking on the AWS cloud. More broadly, these processes can be applied to your production workloads to get more speed and efficiency.

Topics include set up practices and tuning techniques you can use to minimize network, disk, cpu and RAM bottlenecks. Also included is understanding how to choose and tune the appropriate AWS AMI instance type for your data workload.

Databasese used are AerospikeDB and Redis. Additionally included are techniques to maximize performance for these two commonly used key-value stores on the AWS cloud.

OWASP illustrates that developers keep making the same mistakes over and over again, but what about more esoteric vulnerabilities? In this session Barry will take you beyond SQL injection covering some of the code behind now fixed ASP.NET vulnerabilities. By the end of the session you should be poring through your own code looking for problems with dictionaries, compression, encryption and more.
