Don't Miss SATURN 2008 - Special Group and Course Rates Available
When you attend this year’s SEI SATURN Workshop along with three of your coworkers, you can all save 10% on the price of the workshop AND one of two SEI courses colocated with the workshop April 28th and 29th: Documenting Software Architectures (DSA) and Software Architecture: Principles and Practices (SAPP).
The DSA and SAPP courses—both part of the SEI Software Architecture Curriculum and Software Architecture Professional Certificate Program—provide specialized training for software architects. DSA provides in-depth coverage of effective software architecture documentation practices that meet the needs of the entire architecture stakeholder community. SAPP introduces participants to the essential concepts of software architecture and to software architectures in a real-world setting through “industrial-strength” case studies that illuminate the key technical and organizational issues involved with software architectures.
SATURN workshops provide a unique opportunity for participants to exchange best practices in developing and acquiring software architectures and using them to build predictable, high-quality systems through presentations, tutorials, and working sessions. Participants share how they successfully use software architecture practices within their organizations to ensure predictable product qualities, cost, and schedule.
The keynote speakers this year are both experts in the field of software architecture:
- Philippe Kruchten, software engineering professor at University of British Columbia, Vancouver, will present “On Software Architecture, Agility, Cost and Value.”
- Eoin Woods, software architect at Barclays Global Investors, will present “Putting Software Architecture in its Place - Fitting Software Architecture Into the Enterprise Technology Landscape.”
Also planned are half-day tutorials on
- T1: Predictability by Construction
- T2: Software Architectural Knowledge = Architectural Design Decisions + Architectural Design
- T3: Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture: A Pattern Language for Distributed Computing
- T4: Information Systems Architecture: Stakeholders, Viewpoints and Perspectives
- T5: Integrating Architecture-Centric Methods into Object-Oriented Analysis and Design
- T6: Evaluating a Service-Oriented Architecture
