AJAXWorld RIA Conference & Expo

Driving Profitability Through UX - June 22-23, 2009 in NYC

 

In the current economic climate IT managers are under continuous pressure to justify spending time and money on user experience research and design. What does that mean to developers, architects, business users, and value?

At the 7th International AJAXWorld RIA Conference & Expo in New York City this June, the Conference Theme is "Driving Profitability Through the User Experience" - there will be keynotes, General Sessions, breakout sessions, and industry panels that explore and explain how simple, rich interfaces that don’t get in the way of the user's experience but enhance it are increasingly becoming tied to value creation, profitability and staying-power in the marketplace.

IT professionals of every stripe will come away with an enhanced understanding of what it takes to effectively evaluate, design and build on-line experiences that are compelling, usable, and profitable. Our organizing principle is that attending delegates should leave the Conference with abundant resources, ideas and examples they can apply immediately to leveraging the technologies they see on display and hear under discussion.

Business-Critical Topics That Will Be Addressed June 22-23 in NYC Include:

  • Enterprise-Level RIAs: How do Rich Internet Applications and approaches such as AJAX help an enterprise make money? What’s the business downside of not AJAXifying my Website or business application?
  • Architectural Issues: Open source or closed source? Cloud-assisted or cloud-independent? What back-end suits what front-end?
  • Business Collaboration Tools: What’s the relevance of Facebook to the enterprise? How are simple, rich interfaces more usually associated with the consumer space making their way into businesses and internal applications and why?
  • Rich-Web Case Studies: Who already uses rich-web technologies in what verticals and how? We bring you sessions from Health, Manufacturing, Finance, Travel, Government, Retail, Insurance, Transportation, and Education.
  • AJAX Security: How can an enterprise ensure the security of its AJAX-based applications? What are the best practices to mitigate security problems in AJAX?
