Note: All webcasts requires vendor registration ASP.NET 2.0 - Membership, Roles & Profiles ASP.NET 2.0 introduces a new provider based model that allows developers to use login, role management and profiles easily. Understanding components of .NET The .NET platform constitutes a set of blocks that manage most of the day-to-day programming tasks for the developer for e.g. memory management. In this session we will talk about the various components that make up the .NET platform JIT, NGEN, GC, BCL, CAS, GAC, <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">AppDomains</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">IL</st1:State></st1:place>, Generics, Reflection etc. We will discuss what are their functions and how they help the developers to develop applications faster by doing most of the mundane programming jobs for them. AJAX Enabling your ASP.NET 2.0 Applications Tips and Tricks This session helps you understand how you can <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">AJAX</st1:place></st1:City> enable your existing ASP.NET 2.0 Applications. It details the various steps involved in getting your ASP.NET 2.0 Application AJAX enabled and provides tips and tricks on getting started quickly with ASP.NET AJAX. Rich Web Applications using ASP.NET <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">AJAX</st1:place></st1:City> Framework Dive deeper into the Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Server Extensions and understand how to energize the UI of existing ASP.NET 2.0 web applications to create powerful user experiences. Exploring ASP.NET AJAX After exploring ASP.NET AJAX Extensions and the Update Panel control, here we start exploring the other handy controls such as Update Progress, Triggers etc., Also, we will explore how Microsoft ASP.NET AJAX helps web developers make network callbacks directly from client-side script code. Advanced ASP.NET <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">AJAX</st1:place></st1:City> This session deals some of the advanced topis in ASP.NET AJAX including web service call backs, predictive fetch patterns, paging pattern etc., and deals with some of the internals of ASP.NET AJAX including the Update Panel internals. Upgrading from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005 SQL Server 2005 offers exciting new possibilities and opportunities but to make use of the new features found in SQL Server 2005, companies must first upgrade their existing database environments. This webcast contains guidance for SQL Server administrators, developers, and IT decision makers who want to move their SQL Server 2000 or 7.0 databases to SQL Server 2005. This webcast would walk through the upgrade risks by providing prescriptive, best-practices technical guidance about how to upgrade specific SQL Server features across all editions Introduction to .NET 3.0 NET 3.0 Elements. Application, Usage, Scenarios and Working of these elements for building applications that have visually compelling User Experiences, seamless communication across technology boundaries, and the ability to support a wide range of business processes. Overview of .NET 3.0 The Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 (formerly WinFX), is the new managed code programming model for Windows. It combines the power of the .NET Framework 2.0 with four new technologies: Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), Windows Workflow Foundation (WF), and Windows CardSpace (WCS, formerly "InfoCard"). Use the .NET Framework 3.0 today to build applications that have visually compelling user experiences, seamless communication across technology boundaries, the ability to support a wide range of business processes, and an easier way to manage your personal information online. Whats New in C# 3.0 C# is one of the most popular, powerful and loved mainstream general purpose programming languages in the world, and in its third release it gets even better. The designers of C# have added several forward looking features to the programming language which open up new styles of programming hitherto available only to some esoteric languages. These enhancements include dynamic type inference, lambda expressions and more. If you are a C# programmer, you would not want to miss this session. Understanding Windows Workflow Foundation Virtually all software supports a business process that can be specified as a discrete series of steps known as a workflow. Windows Workflow Foundation is the programming model, engine and tools for quickly building workflow-enabled applications on Windows. This session is a code-focused introduction to this new technology and shows you how to design, build and debug workflows. Learn how to build the "hello world" of workflow-enabled applications and also how to make the right decisions when choosing to use workflows in everyday applications. Exploring Windows CardSpace Password fatigue and online fraud is a growing problem and is shaking users' confidence in the safety and security of the Internet. CardSpace is the codename for a new technology from Microsoft that helps address the problem of managing and disclosing identity information. CardSpace implements the core of the Identity Metasystem, using open standard protocols to securely negotiate, request and broker identity information between trusted identity providers and requestors. In this session, learn about the rationale behind the Identity Metasystem, CardSpace and how technologies including the Windows Communication Foundation can help you easily integrate a secure, consistent identity infrastructure into your own applications, Web sites and Web services. Next Generation Applications with Windows Presentation Foundation Understand the next generation of user interface, Windows Presentation Foundation and learn about the WPF Everywhere (WPF/E) initiative to create out-of-the-world user experiences. Building Next Generation User Interface with Windows Presentation Foundation This session makes the case that user experience matters - well-designed applications give users a greater sense of trust in the application, improve customer satisfaction and reduce support and training costs. We look at how to use Windows Presentation Foundation to build attractive applications through the use of styles and templates, how to share common design elements across your application through the use of resources, and give a preview of the Microsoft Expression suite of designer-orientated tools. Language Integrated Natural Query (LINQ) Accessing Data the Natural Way Data Access languages like SQL and X-Query are quite different from programming languages like VB and C#. Also, the world of objects and the world of relational data has what is typically referred to as an impedance mismatch. The set of technologies shipping in Orcas try to solve this problem in a number of ways and Language Integrated Natural Query (LINQ) is one of them. If you write a lot of data access code, your world is about to change! Silverlight: Light up the web! Microsoft Silverlight, formerly known as WPF/E, doesnt just have a new name. It has a lot of new features announced at MIX 07 and you can find out about all of these in this session. Learn how to light up the web with Silverlight.
