Mobile Portland: HTML, CSS, and JS: Welcome to Windows 8
Roll back
| description |

If you're a web developer, now you're a Windows 8 developer. Using standard web technologies, web developers can target the largest device market by deploying on Windows 8.
In this two-part presentation, Microsoft Developer Platform Evangelist Jeremy Foster will provide an introduction to Windows 8 design and development.
Part One: What differentiates Windows 8 apps from previous and competing platforms?
We'll explore how Windows 8's comprehensive design language provides a robust and cohesive methodology for pegging the UX meter.
Part Two: Developing on Windows 8
Welcome to Microsoft's native (but by non-proprietary) Windows 8 development environment! You'll meet the WinJS library: a wide-open JavaScript library for Windows 8. WinJS allows HTML5 compliant data-tags to become controls, templates, and Windows 8 contracts. It provides a very lightweight but powerful navigation framework that can hold rich page state. It implements asynchronicity through the CommonJS promise pattern. It provides classes and namespaces, and a lot more. Plus, your favorite 3rd party JS libraries work in Windows 8! JavaScript apps running natively on a device including graphical hardware acceleration -- that's awesome.
CSS, the styling language you know and love (even more now at version 3), is implemented very thoroughly and even has support for some new features like flexboxes and grids, so layout in a Windows 8 app is far less painful than web dev days of old.
About the Speaker
Jeremy Foster, Developer Evangelist, Microsoft
Jeremy Foster was educated in computer engineering and mathematics, gathered disparate industry experience in education, aerospace manufacturing, and insurance. With just enough and not nearly enough education and experience, he finally joined Microsoft with the goal of informing and inspiring other software developers to write code and write it right. When he is not working, he is likely spending time with his wife and son, hiking and camping, sailing, scuba diving, or working on house projects.

Collaborative Game Development for NGOs and NPOs

How can we create community based game development for social good?
Hosted by the 4th Annual Emergent Learning Commons conference.
Presenters:
Valerie Egan of Donate Life Northwest
Brandon Bozzi of Game It Forward
Local game developers Corvus Elrod, David Galiel and Wolfgang Wozniak
Hackathons and game jams often suffer from top-down approaches led by technology rather than the needs of users and clients. We flip this by inviting NPOs and NGOs to share their missions, goals and challenges; and, one of our case studies comes from Donate Life Northwest, an organ donation non-profit seeking to update their video game Scalpel Pal.
Our panel explores ways to approach the challenges of these NPOs and NGOs through game-based design perspectives. Following the conference, we will be hosting a startup game jam, Guts for Glory, to develop games for Donate Life Northwest.

Plug into the Supercloud- CS Colloquium
Roll back
| description |
Hakim Weatherspoon, Assistant Professor, Cornell University
Abstract:
Cloud computing is often compared to the power utility model as part of a trend towards the commoditization of computing resources. However, today's cloud providers do not simply supply raw computing resources as a commodity, but also act as distributors, dictating cloud services that are not compatible across providers. In this talk, I will discuss a new cloud service distribution layer, called a Supercloud, that is completely decoupled from the cloud provider. A Supercloud give its users the illusion of their own homogenized private cloud (albeit, layered on top of one or more third-party providers). Under the hood, the Supercloud can include different hypervisors, hardware architectures, storage subsystems, and connectivity fabrics. Leveraging a nested paravirtualization layer called the Xen-Blanket, the Supercloud maintains the control necessary to implement hypervisor-level services and management. Using the Xen-Blanket to transform various cloud provider services into a unified offering, we have deployed a Supercloud across Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), IBM, and Cornell University, and performed live VM migration between the different sites. Furthermore, Superclouds create opportunities to exploit resource management techniques that providers do not expose, like resource oversubscription, and ultimately can reduce costs for users.
Bio:
Hakim Weatherspoon is an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at Cornell University. His research interests cover various aspects of fault-tolerance, reliability, security, and performance of large Internet-scale systems such as cloud computing and distributed systems. Professor Weatherspoon received his Ph.D. from University of California at Berkeley and B.S. from University of Washington. He is an Alfred P. Sloan Fellow and recipient of an NSF CAREER award, DARPA Computer Science Study Panel (CSSP), IBM Faculty Award, the NetApp Faculty Fellowship, Intel Early Career Faculty Honor, and the Future Internet Architecture award from the National Science Foundation (NSF).

Using the Xen-Blanket to transform various cloud provider services into a unified offering, we have deployed a Supercloud across Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), IBM, and Cornell University, and performed live VM migration between the different sites. Furthermore, Superclouds create opportunities to exploit resource management techniques that providers do not expose, like resource oversubscription, and ultimately can reduce costs for users.

WhereCampPDX 5 Kickoff Party
Roll back
| description |
Join us for the Fifth Annual WhereCampPDX Kickoff Party this Friday at Geoloqi HQ. Beers and banter will be provided. With the growing numbers of geonerds this weekend, we're hoping to acquire more space just downstairs at either Lotus Room or Nedspace. Watch this space for details.
WhereCampPDX is a free, volunteer-created unconference for anyone interested in geography and technology. This yearâs event will be happening October 12th-14th, with a full day of unconference sessions at Metro Regional Center on the 13th.
An unconference is a conference planned by the participants. We convene together, plan sessions, and break-out into the proposed session discussions and activities. This gives everyone an opportunity to bring to the table the things that interest them the most, and talk about emerging topics that are still new and exploratory. We value open participation, providing access to new voices, and lowering barriers to participation. As a result, the event is driven by the interests and talents of the participants.
To attend, you'll need to have signed up at http://wherecamppdx5.eventbrite.com/ by the party time! |

Growth Hacking Workshop: Lean Marketing for Startups
Roll back
| description |

Are you struggling trying to figure out how to get customers for your product? Do you want your product to grow virally? Growth Hacking: Lean Marketing for Startups is a workshop at General Assembly designed to help early-stage startups think critically about the problem of user growth. Because figuring out how to get new users at a startup can sometimes feel like being a chicken running around with its head cut off, we've created an interactive and friendly environment for learning the frameworks, tactics and best practices of growth hacking.
If you're at a startup trying to launch a product, its essential that you arm yourself with a solid understanding of growth hacking and the strategies you need to succeed. With the right framework, you'll know what the hell to do and where to focus your efforts for the highest return. Come with questions, and be ready to have some fun and build a few things!
In this workshop we'll cover growth hacking principles to get you on the right path. We'll spend about half the class setting up some basic growth hacks ourselves.
What we'll learn:
Mapping out your product's user flow
The 5 key user lifecycle stages â i.e. the Growth Hacking Funnel
Moving users between user states
Building a viral campaign
Building and execute an A/B test
Identifying your most valuable acquisition channels
Optimizing site conversions
Increasing user retention & engagement
Prerequisites: You should bring a laptop to class. It helps to come in with a specific product or project in mind.
Mattan Griffel runs the world's growth hacking agency based out of New York City. He has helped launch over a dozen companies and products. He's a regular teacher at General Assembly and NY Ambassador to the Sandbox Network, a collection of young leaders under 30. Mattan organized the first-ever Social Activity Summit and Assembled Fashion in NYC. He has spoken about growth hacking at various industry events â including at Bloomberg, Internet Week, and Social Media Week â and has been featured in BusinessWeek, Mashable and The Next Web. |

WhereCampPDX 5 Kickoff Party
Roll back

nil |

Join us for the Fifth Annual WhereCampPDX Kickoff Party this Friday at Geoloqi HQ. Beers and banter will be provided. With the growing numbers of geonerds this weekend, we're hoping to acquire more space just downstairs at either Lotus Room or Nedspace. Watch this space for details.
WhereCampPDX is a free, volunteer-created unconference for anyone interested in geography and technology. This yearâs event will be happening October 12th-14th, with a full day of unconference sessions at Metro Regional Center on the 13th.
An unconference is a conference planned by the participants. We convene together, plan sessions, and break-out into the proposed session discussions and activities. This gives everyone an opportunity to bring to the table the things that interest them the most, and talk about emerging topics that are still new and exploratory. We value open participation, providing access to new voices, and lowering barriers to participation. As a result, the event is driven by the interests and talents of the participants.

Plug into the Supercloud- CS Colloquium
Roll back
| description |
Hakim Weatherspoon, Assistant Professor, Cornell University
Abstract:
Cloud computing is often compared to the power utility model as part of a trend towards the commoditization of computing resources. However, today's cloud providers do not simply supply raw computing resources as a commodity, but also act as distributors, dictating cloud services that are not compatible across providers. In this talk, I will discuss a new cloud service distribution layer, called a Supercloud, that is completely decoupled from the cloud provider. A Supercloud give its users the illusion of their own homogenized private cloud (albeit, layered on top of one or more third-party providers). Under the hood, the Supercloud can include different hypervisors, hardware architectures, storage subsystems, and connectivity fabrics. Leveraging a nested paravirtualization layer called the Xen-Blanket, the Supercloud maintains the control necessary to implement hypervisor-level services and management. Using the Xen-Blanket to transform various cloud provider services into a unified offering, we have deployed a Supercloud across Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), IBM, and Cornell University, and performed live VM migration between the different sites. Furthermore, Superclouds create opportunities to exploit resource management techniques that providers do not expose, like resource oversubscription, and ultimately can reduce costs for users.
