Why Smalltalk? A Healthcare Perspective on Creating Internal Domain
Specific Languages
June 20, 2008 3:30 pm - 4:15 pm
The current challenge facing Healthcare is not so much a clinical
problem; rather, the challenge is a business problem. As an industry,
Healthcare stands far behind its counterpart’s ability to retrieve and
report clinical and business data for a multitude of reasons.
This presentation will use this extra-ordinary setting to explore some
of the ways in which Smalltalk is well suited to create an internal
Domain Specific Language (DSL) that can enable Healthcare organizations
to overcome the following obstacles:
• Minimal development staff
• Constantly changing reporting requirements
• Technically challenged workforce
Finally, we will discuss the emergence of the excellent tools available
(such as Squeak and Aida) which makes the creation of such DSL’s
possible for ordinary programmers willing to take the plunge.

AIDA/Scribo, a powerful CMS at your fingertips!
June 21, 2008 9:15 am - 10:00 am
AIDA/Scribo is a light-weight but full featured Content Management
System, with CMS core and blog, forum, wiki, sites, and RSS plugins.
Scribo follows Aida philosophy, so it is very easy to use, understand
and extend. Scribo runs on top of AIDA/Web, an opensource Smalltalk web
framework, which allows to write rich, complex but easily maintainable
web applications without a fuss. Presentation will show design goals,
architecture, concrete examples and future plans for both AIDA/Web and
Scribo.
So, we will be very well represented on Smalltalk Solution this year.
Thanks again Rob and Michael for your initiative!
Janko
