Kent Welter\, a Principal Engineer at NuScale\, will give an overview of the technology and describe how NuScale has shaped the future nuclear energ y. \;\n \;\nThe world needs clean\, reliable ways to generate elec tricity. The United States is expected to need 300 gigawatts of new capa city – that’s 150 times the capacity of Hoover Dam – by 2030. Developing nations can only grow as fast as they can power their economies. Global demand for new electric capacity will outpace the U.S. by tenfold in th e same period. \;\n \;\nElectric companies and government leaders are looking for ways to ensure their citizens have reliable\, affordable supplies of electricity. They worry about the volatility of fossil fuel prices and the effects of green house gases. \;\n \;\nNuScale Pow er is providing one of many answers to this problem. NuScale has develop ed a small nuclear power system that is safe\, modular and scalable. The technology was borne of research by leading nuclear scientists with the support of the U.S. government. The design of the NuScale power plant b uilds on hundreds of combined years of operating experience with commerc ial light water reactors along with extensive research and laboratory te sting of advanced safety systems. \;\n \;\nMeeting future demand f or electricity requires that we use what we have more efficiently. We mu st also look to new technologies using wind\, solar and wave power and u se proven technologies such as nuclear power to meet the needs of future generations. \;\n \;\nJoin us in for a night of networking and sh owcase with local technology leaders and entrepreneurs. \;\n \;\nA GENDA: \;\n \;\n5:30 - 6:15: Business Networking Time with finger food\, no host bar \;\n6:15 - 6:25: 30-Second Mic (give us your techn ology business elevator pitch!!) \;\n6:45 Program: NuScale: A New Sca le for Nuclear Power \;\n \;\n$5 for SAO members or students\, and $15 for non-members \;\n \;\nRSVP TO: SAO by emailing sao-coordin ator [AT] corvallis.sao.or.us or on the Willamette Innovators Network 3\;\n \;\nIncludes finger food and no-host bar \;\nTicket Info: $5 for SAO members or students\, and $15 for non-members\n\nTags: corvalli s\, sao\, nuscale\, nuclear\, engineering\n\nImported from: http://calag ator.org/events/1250458135 URL:http://www.sao.corvallis.or.us/drupal/node/153 SUMMARY:January SAO Corvallis Tech Pub - A New Scale for Nuclear Power LOCATION:Renaissance on the Riverfront: 136 SW Washington Ave.\, Corvalli s Oregon 97333 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20091223T184328Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100115T170000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100115T170000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20091223T184328Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100115T195649Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250458104 DESCRIPTION:The Apprenticeships in Science &\; Engineering (ASE) Progr am is currently accepting applicants!

He will give not one\, but 2 talks: \;\n \;\n# Devoxx4Kid s: # \;\n## So your kid is interested in programming\, robotics\, eng ineering? ## \;\n \;\nDevoxx4Kids is a worldwide initiative that i ntroduces programming\, robotics\, and engineering to kids at an early a ge. This is achieved by organizing events where children can develop com puter games\, program robots and also have an introduction to electronic s. This effort won Duke’s Choice Awards at JavaOne 2013. This session wi ll share how Devoxx4Kids is engaging kids at an early age and teaching t hem computing concepts using Scratch\, Greenfoot\, Minecraft\, Raspberry Pi\, Arduino\, NAO\, Tynker. The session will show a path that can be f ollowed by parents to keep their kids engaged and build\, instead of jus t play games. The attendees will learn best practices to organize simila r workshops in their local setting. Tips on opening a local US chapter a nd how to build attendee base will be shared. \;\n \;\n# Continuou s Integration using Java EE 7 # \;\n \;\nTechniques such as automa ted testing\, continuous integration and continuous deployment allow sof tware to be developed to a high standard and easily packaged and deploye d to test environments\, resulting in the ability to rapidly\, reliably and repeatedly push out enhancements and bug fixes to customers at low r isk and with minimal manual overhead. What container-agnostic tools are available for testing\, continuous integration and deployment of a Java EE 7 application? \;\n \;\nThis talk will provide a quick overview of Arquillian and how it helps in testing across multiple containers. S eparate approaches for greenfield and brownfield applications will be sh own. Configuring Jenkins for Continuous Integration will be shown. Setti ng up multiple WildFly containers on OpenShift for testing and productio n will be shown in detail. At the end of this session\, attendees would have converted their development environment to leverage the power of Je nkins\, Arquillian\, and OpenShift to setup an automated Continuous Deli very pipeline. \;\n \;\n*Doors will open at 5:30\, and the present ation will begin right at 6p.

A Ce rtified Scrum Developer is someone who has demonstrated through a combin ation of formal training and a technical skills assessment that he or sh e has a working understanding of Scrum principles and has learned specia lized Agile engineering skills. \;\n \;\nThis three-day class is aimed at helping software development professionals and teams be more ef fective when implementing Scrum and other Agile methodologies. You will learn how to create and maintain high quality systems through industry standard practices such as Test Driven Development (TDD)\, Continuous In tegration (CI) and common software design patterns. This class was speci fically designed to deliver the core Agile Development Practices Learnin g Objectives of the CSD program and should prepare the participant to su ccessfully pass the Scrum Alliance CSD Candidate Assessment. \;\n \;\nThis class focuses on automated testing\, TDD (heavily covered in cl ass)\, Continuous Integration\, Design Concepts (Design Principles and P ractices) and Extreme Programming (XP) practices. Class is hands-on\, an d you will participate in a project where you will build an actual featu re using Agile practices and learn about the technical practices. You'll learn about how team members interact during sprints. Other topics cove red include Technical Debt: Strategies &\; Techniques to help reduce technical debt. \;\n \;\nIn order to earn the CSD certification\, the Scrum Alliance requires at least five days of formal training follow ed by a CSD assessment/evaluation. This class fulfills 21 of the require d 35 hours and can be paired with the Certified ScrumMaster class to com plete the requirement.\n\nTags: agile\, scrum\, developer\, engineering\ , continuous integration\, continuous development\, technical debt\, pai r programming\, extreme programming\, xp\, framework\, test driven devel opment\, tdd\, bdd\, Business Driven Development\n\nImported from: http: //calagator.org/events/1250473404 URL:https://www.braintrustgroup.com/class/certified-scrum-developer-agile -engineering-ae-portland-9-11-april-2018/ SUMMARY:Agile Engineering Course - Certified Scrum Developer (CSD) LOCATION:Courtyard by Marriott - Portland: 550 SW Oak St\, Portland OR 97 204 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20180717T230032Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20180804T150000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20180804T090000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20180717T230032Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20180717T230032Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250474014 DESCRIPTION:Practical\, Hands-on Training For Kanban \;\nLearn how to “Stop Starting and Start Finishing” \;\n \;\nJoin us for an all da y Kanban workshop on August 04th\, 2018\; featuring Suzanne Ward MBA MEn g PMP CSM CSPO PSM CSP\, a Scrum Master &\; Agile Coach/Trainer from Intel. \;\nOur Kanban workshop will help you adopt a value–centric sy stem of planning and executing your work.
