We invite experienced Flex application developers to bring their resumes and meet Thetus Flex developers. \;\n \;\nBuilding and deploying complex Fl ex applications is a challenge. How \;\ndo you ensure repeatable buil ds that are correct on multiple platforms \;\nand in multiple IDEs? Maven is one tool that has been long used in \;\nthe Java community t o provide application lifecycle (build\, test\, \;\ndeploy) functiona lity that is standard across projects. By utilizing \;\na common file system layout and a predefined set of goals or targets \;\n(the Proje ct Object Model\, POM)\, you can easily move between \;\nprojects wit hout having to learn the intricacies of each project's \;\nbuild and deployment setup. Modern IDEs such as Eclipse and IDEA have \;\nsuppo rt for loading Maven POM files and configuring projects \;\nautomatic ally. Recent additions to Maven (flex-mojos) allow this same \;\npowe r to be applied to Flex as well. I'll show practical examples of \;\n how Maven works in a mixed Java/Flex project that deploys to the \;\n Amazon cloud. \;\n \;\nChristopher Mason is a Flex developer at Th etus corporation. A \;\nrefugee from bioinformatics\, Christopher ha s focused for more than 10 years \;\non building applications that ar en't afraid of large information sets \;\nand that scale both from a technology and a user-understanding \;\nperspective. \;\n \;\nM eeting starts at 6 PM.

You all know by now that you should be unit testing your code\, but do you know how? It is unfortunately reall y easy in flex to architect code which is very difficult to test. In thi s session\, we will explore how to build components and applications in flex which are inherently testable\, and see how we test them. \;\n&# 13\;\nJoin us Thursday\, October 14\, for food and networking at 5:30 PM sponsored by Thetus Corporation in association with the PDXRIA User Gro up.

He has been developing Internet applications since 1995 and working with Flex since its 1.0 beta. Michael is an Adobe Cert ified Instructor\, Community Professional\, and co-author of the Flex 2\ , 3 and 4 Training from the Source books and Breaking out of the Browser with Adobe AIR. \;\n \;\nAs an international speaker and team men tor on Flex and AIR projects\, he has consulted for many of the world’s most recognized brands.

Though we have orders of magnitude more power at our fi ngertips\, real interactivity is still illusive - but it need not be. 3\;\n \;\nInteractive applications have been a multi-decade goal. Fle x is yet another in a long history of frameworks for delivering interact ive applications\, but technology alone does not an interactive applicat ion make. You need to understand the problems\, existing solutions and t echniques for solving the problem\, and the user of the application. Fas t is never enough\, because the complexity will grow until the app is no t fast enough and pain limits what the user can do\, underscoring the pe rception of your app - what the pain prevents me from doing vs. what the lack of pain enables me to do. Scaling is the name of the game - let's talk about bigger problems than you can imagine. \;\n \;\nSpeakers \;\n \;\nRoy Hall has been writing interactive graphic applicatio ns for more than 30 years. Trained in civil engineering and architecture \, he started writing 3D interactive apps for stadium roof design on E&a mp\;S PSII's in the late 70's. He later wrote the rendering pipeline for Robert Abel and Associates (Tron - sucking Flynn into the computer and throwing him back out)\; was the system architect for Wavefront Technolo gies (Science and Technology Academy Award for that) - and which through many morphs is now the Maya animation software\; was an Assistant Profe ssor at Cornell's Program of Computer Graphics\; wrote the 'Joey 3D tool kit' extensions for Microsoft MFC in the 90's\; worked on the interactio n model for Sketchup\; and is now the CTO for Thetus Corporation.\n\nTag s: flex\, ui\, ux\, web2.0\, ria\, pdxria\n\nImported from: http://calag ator.org/events/1250459476 URL:http://pdxria.groups.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=post.display&postid=31 954 SUMMARY:PDXRIA: Putting The Active Into Interactive LOCATION:Thetus Corporation: 34 NW 1st Ave\, Portland Oregon 97209 United States SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20110913T221028Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20110929T183000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20110929T173000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20110913T221028Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20110920T212052Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250461324 DESCRIPTION:Who doesn’t love to be part of something new?

Everyday\, app s like yours could control how to send their data out into the world to circulate and bring back value to users. Certainly this would require a change in the way the world views data today\, and in the infrastructure that enables it to flow freely while protected. This event is a first s tep in building that infrastructure for the benefit of all. \;\n \ ;\nConsider the prospect of Facebook\, Google\, Amazon\, LinkedIn and ot her data silos bidding against each other for what data you might provid e. What kinds of data might be the most interesting? How could that valu e be enhanced? How could you collect it with minimal effort? How would your privacy be protected? What could you get in return? \;\n \;\n At this event you’ll pick a particular type of personal data and build a n app to show how its value as a personal asset can be enhanced.

Please re gister for this event on Eventbrite. \;\n \;\nCome learn about wha t Information Architecture means and about some of the challenges facing Portland's leading practitioners. \;\n \;\nIdeal for: Anyone inte rested in technology\, creative tech\, business of tech\, industry pros\ , students and everyone in between.  \;\n \;\nThanks to our sponso rs: AIGA\, IxDA\, PDX Web and Design Meetup\, Northwest Creatives Social Club\, People's Sandwich of Portland and Floyd's Coffee \;\n \;\n Our speaker lineup is amazing! \;\n \;\n10am: Jeanne Turner-Walmar t Labs  \;\nCultivating Good Will in the Digital World \;\nWhen we have to wait 20 minutes for service after being seated at a restaurant\ , or when a grocery store is disorganized and the clerk is distracted an d unhelpful\, then we know that something is wrong with the situation. I n the physical world\, lack of information and poor interactions are obv ious. In the physical world\, we know how to make improvements that incr ease customer satisfaction. How can we translate this understanding to t he digital world? What do we need to understand about human nature to i mprove digital experiences? In this talk\, Jeanne Turner will discuss co ncepts and techniques that allow us to cultivate good will in the digita l world. \;\n \;\n11am: Patricia Colley-Interactionflow \;\nCiv ilizing Information Architecture: A meditation on systems design \;\n What is the scope of information architecture practice? To design optima l architectural structures\, we know we must empathize with its inhabita nts\, and apply deep expertise in organization\, language and flow. But we've learned\, this alone will not ensure a design's success. As we div e deeply into the churning sea of design and technology trends\, tools a nd methods\, we often forget how we orient to design practice\, and its increasingly complex problems\, as thoughtful human beings. Will our app s\, widgets and gadgets come to serve us\, or will we lose ourselves in a wilderness of unmitigated digital distractions and breakdowns? To civi lize our digital future\, we are compelled to take a systems view of des ign practice. We are compelled to shift our perspectives and spark grand er dialogues.This session will examine the origins and evolution of the IA role\, the current and emerging climate in which our products reside\ , and put forth a few principles and methods to help answer the call to broaden our vision and expand our influence in a changing world. \;\ n \;\n12p: Huston Hedinger-Wikisway \;\nNetworks as a User Interfa ce \;\nThe mathematics of graph theory and its many applications via network science in sociology\, bioinformatics\, intelligence\, and even physics\, represent a paradigm shift in how we study and consider inform ation. Over the last 30 years\, machines have allowed us to structure da ta in such a way that allow us to analyze the complex interactions betwe en the individual actors in networks. These interactions turn out to rev eal patterns that are both predictable and obedient to mathematical laws - many in the academic community are just beginning to grasp the power a n the importance of these claims. The ability to visualize networks allo wing the researcher/user/customer to quickly understand the structure an d behavior of a network is the main focus of this talk. \;\n \;\n1 p: Matthew Baranauskas and Noah DiJulio-Ziba \;\nMeeting the Challeng es of Innovating on Top of Existing Platforms \;\nInformation archite cture is the keystone of every digital experience. It's where consumer n eeds and desires often collide with a brand's hopes and dreams. The dang er for companies as they grow is figuring out how to integrate new featu res into their customer's existing experience. Using real world examples and personal anecdotes\, Matthew and Noah will discuss how they navigat e the challenge of innovating on top of existing platforms using a consu mer-centric approach. You'll gain perspective on where to look for inspi ration and insight\, how to prioritize features into something that is m eaningful and authentic\, and how not to lose your mind in the process.& #13\;\n \;\n2p: Joel Barker and Michael Sulis-Wordlions and Summit En ergy Tech\, respectively \;\nCapture\, Tagging and Release of Institu tional Knowledge: Delivering Information in the Real World \;\nWhen c reating a system to deliver institutional information outside of the org anization\, the success of the project rests on understanding the requir ements and work process of all stakeholders. In this case study\, Summit Energy Tech and Word Lions collaborated to collect\, organize\, and mak e available the mission critical institutional knowledge that was the fo undation of our client’s relationship with their customers. This present ation will cover not only our solution\, but the points where understand ing the client capacity makes the difference between implementation and project failure. \;\n \;\n3p: Alison Stump-The Social Wall \;\n Visualizing Insight: Getting Started in Information Architecture \;\n Information Architecture has only recently been given the respect it des erves by those outside the realm of User Experience. Often the designs w e build are so elegant they appear simple. The average person on the str eet knows that a menu bar probably goes at the top of the page. In most cases its "\;common sense"\;. It is positioned on the top of the page because an Information Architect thought about all the options\, c onsidered the usability and user research data and delivered a product t hat just works.That is what information Architecture is. So how do you d o it? We will discuss a basic schema\, various tools and resources to he lp you get started as well as key terms and phrases that will allow you to escalate your career. \;\n \;\n4p: Dedrick Sprick-OHSU \;\n Progressive Content Strategy: A content commitment model \;\nThere ar e a lot of hurdles to overcome for managing content well on any site. Ma naging content well includes knowing your website\, scheduling tasks\, g etting the resources together\, staying on top of trends and responding to visitor needs. Learn how to tackle this monumental task one step at a time\, so your team can grow with your website. \;\n  \;\n \;\ nWe can have only 80 guests/session\, so it's all first come\, first ser ved\, so make sure you're on time!  \;\n \;\nAlso\, food and drink is allowed\, but not provided. Please go to Floyd's Coffee across the s treet or People's Sandwich of Portland to find food\, or bring your own. \;\n \;\nAfterparty @Backspace 'til whenever.

Apps and websites have merged into one. In simple terms\, a responsive web desig n uses "\;media queries"\; to figure out what resolution of devi ce it's being served on. Flexible images and fluid grids then size corre ctly to fit the screen. From a QA view\, how can we effectively test RWD . The Technology Association of Oregon (TAO) is excited to provide an op portunity to gather and discuss lessons learned and real life strategies to test these applications. \;\n \;\nOn Thursday\, February 28th\ , the Quality Assurance Forum of the TAO is presenting a panel discussio n on Responsive Web Design – Testing. Come join us for an engaging eveni ng with your SQA peers centered on how to test Responsive Web. \;\n&# 13\;\nPanelists: \;\n \;\nLyza Danger Gardner\, co-founder\, Cloud Four \;\nSince co-founding Portland\, Ore.-based mobile web start-up Cloud Four (http://www.cloudfour.com) in 2007\, Lyza has tortured and t hrilled herself with the intricate ins and outs of the bazillion devices and browsers now accessing the web globally. Lyza and co-founder Jason Grigsby are the authors of Head First Mobile Web. \;\n \;\nTrent P eterson\, co-founder\, AppThwack - \;\nTrent Peterson spent seven ye ars at Intel designing system-automation solutions trusted to test produ cts used by millions of customers with an emphasis on simplicity and use r experience. He left in early 2012 to co-found AppThwack\,a mobile app testing service that helps developers quickly and automatically test the ir apps on real devices. \;\n \;\nPawel Wojnarowicz\, co-founder\, AppThwack - \;\nPawel Wojnarowicz built an automation platform in h is spare time that became the official solution for testing all wireless products at Intel.

They range from simply no test plan at all to fossilized relics left over from the Waterfall days. So what does the Agile Manifesto say about test plans? I t says two things\, but nothing really specific: "\;working software over comprehensive documentation” and "\;responding to change over following a plan”. What does this all mean when it comes to the Agile Te st Plan? \;\n \;\n \;\nIn this hands on workshop\, we will spl it into teams\, analyze a real-life case study\, devise a test plan (or perhaps discount the test plan)\, and answer this question once and for all.

This research project is in its second year of a five-year duration\, with a geographically distributed team representing ten universities across the U.S. This research team is developing a hy dro-economic optimization model and relevant inputs that will be used to evaluate management scenarios for south Florida water and environmental resources. A unique human systems dimension is also included as input t o the model. Risks from potential climate change impacts\, such as sea level rise\, are major drivers for pursuing this work. \;\n \;\n Alicia introduced Agile management and Adaptive Action concepts have bee n introduced over the last nine months\, including iterative development \, retrospectives\, Scrum\, kanban \, and agile chartering. This combina tion of ‘light-weight management’ concepts has enabled researchers to co ntinue to pursue their scientific inquiry independently\, while ensuring collaboration across the sciences. Ensuring individual creativity with simultaneous collaboration and integration additionally maximizes stewa rdship of federal funds. The effectiveness on integration and productiv ity will be continuously analyzed through tools such as in-depth intervi ews\, retrospectives\, and online surveys of project participants and st akeholders. \;\n \;\nAlicia's inner fire is stoked by helping tea ms achieve big dreams using agile project management\, adaptive action\, and unique facilitation methods. Alicia is intrigued by the possibilit y of a world of (non-software) teams who understand the power of being a gile\, and have tools to help get them there. Her clients include munici palities and state organizations\, distributed university teams\, and bu sinesses. When she started her own company 11 years ago\, she gave hers elf the gift to study anything that piqued her curiosity. That gift led to her exposure to agile principles\, human systems dynamics\, servant and facilitative leadership concepts\, importance of retrospectives\, un ique facilitation methods\, Lean\, and more. She currently manages the LinkedIn site ‘Agile Project Management (non-software)’. Prior to start ing her own company\, she worked for over 13 years at CH2M HILL\, and 6 years at North Carolina State University. She is a registered Professio nal Engineer in California\, Oregon and North Carolina\, as well as a Hu man Systems Dynamics Professional. \;\n \;\n\n\nTags: agile\, pmi\ , XP2014\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250466351 URL:http://www.pmi-portland.org/roundtables SUMMARY:PDX PMI Agile Roundtable: Applying Agile Management Concepts to a Complex\, Multi-Year\, High Stakes Scientific Research Project LOCATION:Thetus Corporation: 34 NW 1st Ave\, Portland Oregon 97209 United States SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140530T154657Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140618T183000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140618T173000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140530T154657Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140530T154657Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250466357 DESCRIPTION:This event is sponsored by MapR\, one of the biggest Hadoop D istributions on the market\, and big contributor of Apache Hadoop projec ts like HBase\, Pig (programming language)\, Apache Hive\, and Apache Zo oKeeper. \n\n\nDescription Hadoop has been a huge success in the data wo rld. It’s disrupted decades of data management practices and technologie s by introducing a massively parallel processing framework. The communit y and the development of all the Open Source components pushed Hadoop to where it is now. That's why the Hadoop community is excited about Apach e Spark. The Spark software stack includes a core data-processing engine \, an interface for interactive querying\, Sparkstreaming for streaming data analysis\, and growing libraries for machine-learning and graph ana lysis. Spark is quickly establishing itself as a leading environment for doing fast\, iterative in-memory and streaming analysis. This talk will give an introduction the Spark stack\, explain how Spark has lighting f ast results\, and how it complements Apache Hadoop.

We aim to help change that. \;\n \;\nWhat information can/should/mus t we collect from employees\, and how do we connect it to large business and benefits management systems? \;\n \;\nJoin us on October 7th as we explore Big Data and What it Means to Your Workforce. \;\n \ ;\nPanelists: \;\n \;\nEric Wilson\, Principal\, HR Integrated Sol utions -- Eric will try to separate the fact from fiction with regard to how big data is likely to impact the future of HR. How do you determin e what data you should consider acquiring and from what sources? Once y ou get your hands on the information how do you turn that “raw” data int o something that is actionable\, with potentially predictive relevance? How do you present the data in a way that can drive decisions to achiev e organizational change? This should be a thought-provoking primer rega rding the relevance of Big Data in HR. \;\n \;\nCheck back for additional panelists. \;\n \;\nModerator: \;\n \;\n[Gloria I lg](https://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=47309006&\;authType=NAME _SEARCH&\;authToken=nBhN&\;locale=en_US&\;srchid=17482848141082 0288761&\;srchindex=1&\;srchtotal=2&\;trk=vsrp_people_res_name& amp\;trkInfo=VSRPsearchId%3A174828481410820288761%2CVSRPtargetId%3A47309 006%2CVSRPcmpt%3Aprimary)\, SVP of Human Resources Worldwide\, Rentrak\n \nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250467055 URL:http://www.techoregon.org/event?eventid=12628581427 SUMMARY:Managing and Utilizing Big Data for Your Workforce | HR Event LOCATION:Thetus Corporation: 34 NW 1st Ave\, Portland Oregon 97209 United States SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
