Advanced Bionics, LLC is offering a four hour discussion on May 1st, 2009 covering the technical difficulties facing software engineers.

Advanced Bionics, LLC makes cochlear implants, and is headquartered in Valencia, CA, but our software department is located in Sylmar, CA. For more information about who we are and what we do, please visit www.bionicear.com.

The day will be spent discussing the architecture and infrastructure of AB’s fitting software, SoundWave. SoundWave is a C# WinForms application developed over the past five years used to adjust stimulation settings for one or more cochlear implants on a patient. SoundWave has a multilayer Service Oriented Programming (SOP) architecture that uses our own implementation of an Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) infrastructure to handle everything from thread marshalling to enforcement of our state machine rules. Multiple static threads are used to keep SoundWave responsive.

Tech Talk Topic: Living in the Cloud: Hosting Data & Apps Using the Google Infrastructure

Building modern web applications is hard work. The traditional problems of infrastructure, systems administration, and scalability need to be taken into account throughout the software life cycle. Data needs to be published in a way that makes it accessible to others, and will probably need to be consumed from existing services as well. All in addition to actually building your application.

This talk will provide an overview of two technologies that aim to make this process easier by building upon Google's distributed computing system: Google App Engine and the Google Data APIs.

Please RSVP online here.
