CUSEC 2006: Day 3/3
The final day of the conference started much later than the previous days. David Heinemeier Hansson, Rails founder, was supposed to present Ruby on Rails. Due to a snowstorm problem and planes locked down, Chad Fowler had to present it instead. I guess this was not really a problem for anyone as Chad is a good presenter after all.

CUSEC 2006: Day 2/3
The second day of CUSEC started with only a few people. Most of the attendees decided to get a few more hours of sleep after yesterday’s party. They probably should have selected to coffee option, because they definetly missed a great session at 9. Here is the session lineup for the day:
- Considering AJAX, by Chris Laffra
- Modular Concurrency, by Peter Grogono
- Testing in a Creative Environment, by Karine Roy
- A Panacea or Academic Poppycock: Formal Methods Revisited, by Connie Heitmeyer
- Model Based Development of Advanced User Interface, by Peter Forbig
- Creating Passionate Users, by Kathy Sierra
As a side note, this entry has been written in multiple parts, so don’t bother if things don’t really fit together.
CUSEC 2006: Day 1/3
I’m currently sitting in the Apple-sponsored Internet Cafe at CUSEC 2006 (Canadian Undergraduate University Software Engineering Conference). Thankfully, the wireless network is wide open and I don’t have to type from a Mac and an Aqua theme. I will mostly update this entry as the conference advances.
Here is the list of sessions I have attended to:
- Fight the Traffic, by Chad Fowler
- What Hollywood Taught me about Software Engineering, by Robert Sabourin
- Software Testing as a Social Science, by Cem Kaner
- Static Analysis Using the Eclipse Test and Performance Tools Platform
