Use the Power of C# 3.0 to Solve Real-World Problems

-- Larry Snyder, Emeritus Professor, University of Washington, Department of Computer Science and Engineering “Having the TouchDevelop book available made our events so much easier.

Event, the first book by Australian poet Judith Bishop, is the work of a border-crosser. Emotionally intense, formally inventive and musical, with influences ranging from Ted Hughes and Elizabeth Bishop to Yves Bonnefoy, these poems have won prestigious awards in Australia and the U.S. and feature in The Best Australian Poetry 2006 (U.Q.P) and The Best Australian Poems 2006 (Black Inc.).. Local and global at once, with a strong naturalist bent, they gather in birds, flora and fauna from across four continents, Australia, North and South America and Europe. Central to the collection is a striking sequence poem which inhabits the voice of the Aztec translator in the Spanish Conquest, La Malinche. Indeed, the human voice – a form of breath, but “irreversible” in what it says and does – performs the principal role in this book’s erotic theatre of love and betrayal. Event is, above all, a book of intimate dialogues between a human self and her others: lovers, animals, elements of the natural world, and deities, some distant, some destroyed. Wind, too, has a leading part, taking on the dual role of a natural force and of something close to fate. Rising as if out of nowhere in these poems, wind is a metaphor for the pure nature of events which occur without premonition and without recourse.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the IFIP/ACM Working Conference on Component Deployment, CD 2002, held in Berlin, Germany, in June 2002. The 13 revised full papers and 6 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on resource constraint systems, reconfiguration and evolution, success and challenges in component deployment, languages for adaptable components, and mechanisms for adaptation and connection.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 49th International Conference on Objects, Models, Components, Patterns, held in Zurich, Switzerland, in June 2011. The 19 revised full papers presented together with the abstracts of 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 68 submissions. The papers discuss all aspects of object technology and related fields, in particular model-based development, component-based development, language implementation and patterns, in a holistic way. The conference has a strong practical bias, without losing sight of the importance of correctness and performance.
