Training:
Devan Shepherd - CEO, XMaLpha
Tuesday, December 4, 2001
Wednesday, December 5, 2001
This intensive two-day course will provide a complete overview of XML
technologies. This course starts with an explanation of well-formed,
syntactically perfect XML and demonstrates the approaches available to constrain
XML to enforce structural validity. Attendees will learn about XML and
CSS, XSL, XSL-FO, XSLT and other approaches to rendering XML data on client
user-agents. DOM, SAX and alternate APIs will be explored in the context
of middle-tier scripting. Database connectivity and interaction with XML
documents will be demonstrated along with approaches to integration of XML in
e-Business solutions. Business-to-business and business-to-government
integration using XML will also be discussed.
RECENT EVENTS:
XML For E-Business
Devan Shepherd, XMaLpha CEO will conduct a hands-on tutorial focusing on the
role of XML in the implementation of e-Business solutions. Devan is a

Implementing e-Business Solutions
Devan Shepherd - CEO, XMaLpha
October 25, 2001
8:30 AM - 4:30 PM
E-business, as implemented on the Internet, is the greatest driver of change
in the commercial community today. The importance of integrated
business-to-business transactions is increasing as the corporate world embraces
Supply Chain Management, e-Procurement, m-Business and related
technologies.
To effectively participate in the exchange of e-business transactions,
companies must adopt a common language for the exchange of structured
information. XML offers the means of creating common business
languages. This seminar will provide a hands-on, implementation-oriented,
review of major e-Business solutions and technological interfaces from vendors
such as Dell, IBM, Microsoft, Sun, Oracle, Commerce-One, and others.
Participants will not only have an opportunity to see the tools in action, but
also install all of the software packages on computers provided by Dell Computer
Inc. (one of several major sponsors of this exciting event) and produce
real-time business transactions in a simulated marketplace.

XML Business Symposium
The XML Business Symposium will again this year offer intensive two day
tutorials on major implementation focused solutions. Participants can
choose among several parallel tracks focusing on different aspects of XML
programming.
A Complete Overview of Cross-Platform XML Solution Design
Devan Shepherd - CEO, XMaLpha
November 7, 2001
10:30 AM - 3:30 PM
During this two-day tutorial, participants will learn to make use of
cross-platform application design using Java, in concert with XML. The
best combination of fully internationalized, open, integrated, and vendor
agnostic solutions can be accomplished by marrying the application capabilities
of Java with the data modeling capabilities of XML vocabularies. The future of
Business Solution Development will thrive on the "Write Once, Run
Anywhere" nature of Java and the intelligence of XML data structures. XML
and Java are powerful allies and the ancillary toolset is elegant and efficient.
Participants will learn about Transformation via APIs using SAX, DOM, JDOM,
and TRaX. A major focus on Web-based data binding solutions, using server-driven
approaches will be offered. In addition, XML based messaging, Webservices and
integration will be explored in detail with code examples that participants can
take away and use immediately.
