No more jackets and ties... --RAH] The Digital Commerce Society of Boston Presents Paul St. Pierre, Vice President of Engineering and co-founder, WearLogic, Inc. An XML-based Software Platform for Interacting with SmartCards in your Wallet Tuesday, June 6th, 2000 12 - 2 PM The Downtown Harvard Club of Boston One Federal Street, Boston, MA XML is increasingly being used as a container for complex data, in both Business to Business (B2B) and Business to Consumer applications. A major virtue of XML over HTML is the separation of content from formatting -- XML encapsulates the data according to its meaning, but can be rendered according to the characteristics of the user's display device. In addition, XML defines Processing Instructions, which can be used to cause the "processor" (the XML interpreter) to perform certain actions at key points in the XML stream. This talk examines the XML software platform being developed by WearLogic <http://www.wearlogic.com> for its SmartWear(TM) electronic wallet products, and its applicability to a variety of SmartCard types and applications. This meeting of the Digital Commerce Society of Boston will be held on Tuesday, June 6th, 2000, from 12pm - 2pm at the Downtown Branch of the Harvard Club of Boston, on One Federal Street. The price for lunch is $35.00. This price includes lunch, room rental, A/V hardware if necessary, and the speakers' lunch. The Harvard Club has relaxed its dress code, which is now "business casual", meaning no sneakers or jeans. Fair warning: since we purchase these luncheons in advance, we will be unable to refund the price of your meal if the Club finds you in violation of what's left of its dress code. We need to receive a company check, or money order, (or, if we *really* know you, a personal check) payable to "The Harvard Club of Boston", by Saturday, June 3rd, or you won't be on the list for lunch. Checks payable to anyone else but The Harvard Club of Boston will have to be sent back. Checks should be sent to Robert Hettinga, 44 Farquhar Street, Boston, Massachusetts, 02131. Again, they *must* be made payable to "The Harvard Club of Boston", in the amount of $35.00. Please include your e-mail address so that we can send you a confirmation If anyone has questions, or has a problem with these arrangements (We've had to work with glacial A/P departments more than once, for instance), please let us know via e-mail, and we'll see if we can work something out. Upcoming speakers for DCSB are: July NO MEETING: (4th of July and Tall Ships) August Bruce Schneier TBA We are actively searching for future speakers. If you are in Boston on the first Tuesday of the month, are a principal in digital commerce, and would like to make a presentation to the Society, please send e-mail to the DCSB Program Committee, care of Robert Hettinga, <mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
