Registration, coffee, tea & refreshments at Clojurex 2012

 09:20-10:00     LIVE PROGRAMMING WITH CLOJURE

Sam Aaron: A talk entirely live coded. In Clojure! View the podcast here...

 10:00-10:40     THE REFINED CLOJURIST

David Nolen: Constraint Logic Programming (CLP) is a powerful extension to relational programming systems. In traditional relational programming systems like Prolog the primary constraint is a strategy know as unification. However this approach does not comes without costs - in fact reasoning about costs in Prolog-like systems is surprisingly challenging. View the podcast here...

 11:00-11:40     A WALKING TOUR OF CLOJURE'S HISTORY*

Kris Jenkins: Work on Clojure began in 1958. Forty-nine years later the first version was released. Well, that's sort of how it went. Join me on a tour through the history of LISP, from its algebraic roots to the present day dialect we know and love. View the podcast here...

 11:40-12:20     A PRACTICAL TOUR OF CLOJURE WEB DEVELOPMENT

James Reeves: A look at how to design and structure Clojure web applications, and how to make effective use of the tools and libraries available in the Clojure ecosystem. View the podcast here...

 12:20-13:00     CIAO! LEARNING A FOREIGN LANGUAGE THE CLOJURE CORE.LOGIC WAY...

Malcolm Sparks: If, like me, you want to pretend to learn a foreign language but actually play with core.logic, then this talk will get you started. We will build up the grammar to Italian and use core.logic to help us conjugate verbs and progress towards building a simple language translator. View the podcast here...

 13:00-13:40     LUNCH AT CLOJUREX 2012

Lunch at ClojureX 2012

 13:40-14:20     CLOJURESCRIPT ALL THE WAY DOWN

Bodil Stokke: Node.js is really hip these days. Of course, a barrier to adoption for any sensible programmer is the fact that while the opportunities it provides for network programming are shiny and brilliant, it expects you to write your code in Javascript, a language born with so many design flaws it makes you pine for the halcyon days of COBOL.

 14:20-14:40     API DESIGN WITH PROTOCOLS – TECHNIQUES, TRADE-OFFS

Meikel Brandmeyer: Protocols (and multimethods for that matter) are a means to define APIs which are open to extension to types not anticipated during development of the API providing library. However things are not as trivial as “just use it.” Careful consideration has to be done. This talk will provide some insight in the details of protocols and considerations for designing an API around them. View the podcast here...

 14:40-15:00     REVIVING THE USWITCH BACK OFFICE WITH CLOJURE

Ryan Greenhall: A revolution is underway at Uswitch, the UKs leading energy comparison website. We will share our experience of using Clojure to completely replace the existing monolithic back office system with an eco-system of smaller, focussed Clojure applications throughout 2012. View the podcast here...

 15:00-15:20     PLAYING NICE

David Humphreys: David James Humphreys will cover practical methods for introducing Clojure to your projects. Some tips and tricks for playing nice with other technologies to help introduce Clojure into your current and future projects. View the podcast here...

 15.20 - 15.40     BUILDING A CLOJURE GOOGLE+ CLIENT LIBRARY

Ian Barber: Ian Barber will cover how Google has built a discoverable, flexible API system with the aim of making it easy to build powerful client libraries for each product that is added to the ecosystem. View the podcast here...

 16:00-16:40     THE PERSISTENT DATA STRUCTURE MENAGERIE

Philip Potter: This talk will go through every persistent data structure in clojure's core language, describe the implementation of each, and use examples to show the efficiency gains which are being made over naive copy-on-write immutable data structures. View the podcast here...

 16:40-17:20     BUILDING MUSICAL PERFORMANCE SYSTEMS IN CLOJURE

Nick Rothwell: A presentation of some tools written in Clojure for making music software (conventional products like Ableton Live, or live coding environments like Overtone) more amenable to live performance. View the podcast here...

 17:20-17:25     IMPROMPTU RICH HICKEY LIGHTNING TALK

Rich Hickey: A welcome surprise to proceeding as Rich Hickey gives a lightning talk before his closing keynote at the Clojure eXchange. View the podcast here...

 17:20-18:00     THE LANGUAGE OF THE SYSTEM

Rich Hickey: Most software systems are not single processes written in a single programming language. Instead, systems are composed of a suite of processes, often written by separate parties. Even when every process is written in the same language, there is another language present, emerging from the interfaces, protocols, facilities and semantics the components offer to each other.
