Lecture
Ruby 101
An Introduction
Since the last lecture at jambit about Ruby, some things concerning Ruby have changed:
- Ruby has become an ISO standard
- Version 2.0 has been announced for the next year
- With the help of RubyMotion (among other things), Ruby has made its way into app development
This programming language and its community are still very active despite the flattened hype (Rails).
This introduction presents a basic understanding for the programming language itself and a comparison to other languages used at jambit and discusses the concepts behind Ruby.
Another goal is to open the participants' minds to a new intellectual world of programming as seen through Ruby, without attempting to replace a hands-on workshop or The Programming Week.

Munich Network Conferences
Mobile Connectivity Evolution - Syposium
In Munich
Previously being mere lonely application islands, mobile data communication is becoming a key element in the reorganization of traditional and creation of new markets that has accelerated. The innovative variety of applications is undergoing an evolution towards scalable general applications and platforms. In this respect, the largest markets are approached: New vehicle generations, utility infrastructures as intelligent networks for the supply with electricity and gas , systems embedded in mobile and stationary applications, mobile analytics and diagnostics in the medical field do not realize their new key functions until they are interconnected in a mobile data network.
The symposium addressed the new challenges in this development: The 'mobile technology evolution' offering new solutions, benefits and business models, the internationalization and standardization, as well as safety, security and privacy that are key factors in the success.
In its presentation My apps are going mobile: new standard for the seamless integration of Smartphones, jambit provides an excurses into the current development of the new MirrorLink™ standard.

Introduction to Security Engineering
Why the security of software systems is not (just) a technical problem
The security of software systems is frequently seen as an exclusively technical matter, which can be ensured by developers through following established best practices.
This presentation shows how security is influenced by business processes, and demonstrates why the rational development of a security concept requires an in-depth understanding of the business model supported by the software.

HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript
"How" and for "what"
At the moment, everyone is talking about HTML 5, whether in connection with dynamic websites without Flash or the development of mobile apps. Whenever HTML5 apps are talked about, CSS3 and JavaScript are also always meant. Due to the diversity of application possibilities and the further development of modern browsers, a great deal is possible today, that would not have even been thought of one or two years ago.
During this talk our colleague will be showing how new challenges can be mastered with the new upgrades of former, well-known technologies.

LHC Computing
Or why do we need half a billion CPU hours and 100 petabytes to find the Higgs?
As the world's largest particle accelerator, LHC has been searching for the Higgs boson, dark matter and 'extra dimensions' since 2010, with approx. 1 petabyte of data being produced per second, but only approx. 100 petabytes of storage being available altogether.
The talk held by our colleague will be presenting the motivation for the search for new physics and some challenges for LHC Computing.

Ruby
Introduction
During the past 5 years, Ruby and Rails have had a tremendous impact on the server-side web development, and many others have copied the concept. But why? Ruby on Rails enables web applications to be developed within the shortest time, thereby aiming at making the developers faster and producing readable code. And furthermore, Ruby itself allows interesting concepts, e.g. internal domain-specific languages (DSL), embedded language, powerful regex patterns, etc.
This evening presentation conveys a compact overview of the Ruby ecosystem. Outlooks show further possibilities for self-study.
