Topic: Rich Internet applications
Back in the late nineties, "browsing the web" meant going online to read text and view static images. But that model was limiting. Today, people increasingly use the web for collaboration.As more people and businesses connect to the web, we witness a network effect resulting in data and services explosion opening up new possibilities. Cutting edge technologies that provide richer, responsive user experiences have emerged and become a critical success factor.
In 2002, Macromedia (now Adobe Systems) coined the term Rich Internet Application (RIA) ushering in a new era of engaging digital experiences over the web. RIAs combine the flexibility, responsiveness, and ease of use of desktop applications with the broad reach of the web. There is also a greater demand to seamlessly integrate the user experience across the traditional desktop, personal devices and the internet. In this talk, we discuss the state of the art in RIA, introduce Adobe Flex as an enabling technology and also explore how the Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR) is transforming the web |

Topic: Getting Ready for the Enterprise 2.0 World
Just as the emerging Enterprise 2.0 world demands enterprise information as a service, the new generation of business users demand the same level of ease-of-use, ease-of-combination, and ease-of-distribution from their enterprise sources, as is available from the consumer web – within their context and on all their front-end interfaces.
The session will focus on how enterprises can prepare themselves to meet the demands of this emerging Enterprise 2.0 world, and be ready to serve mashed-up information from its multiple enterprise sources to its myriad users, on their interfaces and devices, without replacing their current enterprise information infrastructure.
This session will also walk the audience through screenshots of Extensio Symphony, an Enterprise 2.0-ready information delivery framework that provides extraction, assembly and delivery of mashed-up information from enterprise and web sources, on multiple user front-ends such as Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Outlook, Desktop Gadgets, Web Widgets, Web Services, Browser Interfaces and Mobile Phones, with enterprise security and scalability.

Topic: Building NextGen Infrastructure for Web Applications
What is supposed to go wrong will go wrong. However, building an Infrastructure that will reduce the risks is very important. An application is not just about development and functionality it is a lot more than that. A lot many factors decide the availability, usability and performance of the applications. As one understands the various technical factors it becomes clear why IT infrastructure architecture and Management are also important considerations while developing and hosting a Web based application. End user experience will drive all the future development effort and that needs to be given maximum focus.

Topic:Is Online Marketing a Different World?
As conventional marketing fades away, the new tools become irresistible. Over the last decade, the online media has provided marketers everywhere with a framework that allows them to capture attention with seemingly little effort and cash.
However, the new marketing or online marketing isn’t magical as most of the people think. What’s magical is what happens when an organization aligns itself to adapt to this new medium. For any business, whether a new or an established one, online marketing only works when it is aligned with organization’s business objectives and is in sync with its fundamental marketing strategy.
This session will educate the audience on the importance of looking at online marketing in a holistic way. The audience will get an understanding of the framework (via case study and practical examples) using which a business can realize the best potential of online marketing.
