E2E: Erik Meijer and Don Box - Perspectives on SOAP, Programming Data and M

Charles — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 16:52:00 GMT

Don Box is a Distinguished Engineer at Microsoft and has a rich history in the general purpose programming world. You remember SOAP, right? Don was one of the Gang of Four who designed SOAP. Don was also instrumental in the design and implementation of WCF. Don is currently building a new model-based data programming platform, code-named Oslo, along with a new language for describing data, M.

Erik Meijer, programming language and library designer, chats with Don about the history of SOAP, model-based programming, data and M. Don will be at PDC09 and in addition to giving his usual stellar performance as a session speaker, he will be part of the Future of Programming panel (a view into Microsoft's perspective on trends and possibilities for general purpose programming in the age of many-core and cloud computing).

An overview of the Oslo modeling platform

Matthijs Hoekstra — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 11:25:00 GMT

Microsoft werkt met Oslo aan de volgende generatie van hun ontwikkelplatform voor applicaties. Oslo gebruikt domein-specifieke modellen, de taal M en nieuwe tooling om je productiever te laten worden bij het ontwikkelen van applicaties. Modelleren van applicaties speelt hierbij een centrale rol. Maar, wat bedoelt Microsoft met modelleren en welke rol gaat Oslo spelen in je .NET applicatie? Deze sessie geeft een overzicht van Oslo en laat je zien wat de visie van Microsoft is ten aanzien van executable modellen, runtimes en het ontwikkelen van applicaties met behulp van Oslo in het algemeen. De vervolgsessie "The M language of Oslo" zal dieper ingaan op de taal M. Deze sessie is daarvoor een goede voorbereiding.

Deze video is opgenomen tijdens de DevDays in Den Haag in juni 2009. DevDays is het grootste evenement op het vlak van softwareontwikkeling en -architectuur in Nederland. Duizenden development professionals bezoeken dit jaarlijkse evenement om in twee dagen weer volledig op de hoogte te zijn van alle ontwikkelingen op hun vakgebied.

Chris Sells: On the History of DevCon, DSLs and Oslo

Charles — Mon, 11 May 2009 19:51:00 GMT

Chris Sells has been hosting DevCons for the past 5 years. What is DevCon? Why? What's the aim of these small conferences?

This year, Chris decided to focus DevCon 2009 on DSLs (Domain Specific Languages). Since Chris is a PM on the Olso team (which contains a set of technologies that enable the composition of DSLs) and DSLs are the programming language design industry's current obsession, Chris thought it would be a great idea to get some of DSL's most prominent thinkers (and doers) together for a few days here in Redmond.

Tune in and learn from Chris the story of What, How and Why of DevCon. We of course also talk about Oslo and what the heck it is.

Introduktion till 'M'

C9 Bytes: Don and Chris explain Oslo in 5 minutes

Dan Fernandez — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 18:52:00 GMT

In this Channel 9 video, Don Box and Chris Anderson explain exactly what Oslo is and what it's used for.

Don Box, Paul Vick and Chris Anderson: Introducing M

Charles — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:58:00 GMT

Don Box, Chris Anderson and Paul Vick dig into their new programming language (well, it's a data modeling language that you use to create DSLs to express your data as opposed to a general purpose language...). What is M, exactly? What does it do? What can it do? To answer these questions, Don, Chris and Paul create a Channel 9 language to express Channel 9 video data. Now that's a great idea! :) Tune in, learn the thinking behind M and how to build data grammars with it. It's a very interesting way to program data.

"Oslo": Repository and Models

System — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:38:25 GMT

"Oslo" is making news. We're taking silos of proprietary, platform, and application data and opening it up for sharing. What gets shared? Deployment configuration, web services definitions, workflow definitions, and that's just a start. Learn how to utilize platform models, how to extend models, and how to add your own models to the repository using the "Oslo" modeling language. Also learn how to version, secure, and deploy models.

"Oslo": The Language

System — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 16:38:23 GMT

The "Oslo" language, at the heart of the Oslo modeling platform, allows developers to quickly and efficiently express domain models that power declarative systems, such as Windows Workflow Foundation and "Dublin." In this session, we'll get you started writing models for your own domains by introducing you to key features of the language, including its type system, instance construction, and query. You'll learn to author content for the Oslo repository and understand how to programmatically construct and process the content to target your own specific runtime environment.
