- <abstract>Because Debian calls itself "the universal operating system", it was inevitable that it would have come to the first F/LOSS-friendly mobile phone, the Openmoko Neo FreeRunner.</abstract>
- <description>Debian on the Openmoko FreeRunner is not a new port nor a new distribution, but instead a different underlying system for the various Openmoko distributions (originally based on OpenEmbedded). At the moment the Debian FreeSmartphone.Org team has focused its works mainly on the FreeSmartphone.Org stack, which is intended not only for the Openmoko devices, but as a general stack for all mobile phones.</description>

- <abstract>Network Storage Devices (NAS) are gaining popularity and are available quite inexpensively. For most customers, they are basically just a hard drive that you connect to the network for file storage. In reality, these devices are complete, even if fairly low-end, computers - and Debian can be installed on some of them.</abstract>

- <language>English</language>
- <abstract>Grid Computing with Debian, Globus and ARC - collaborations in high-performance computing beyond programming and packaging.</abstract>
- <description>Debian is known for being developed from its userbase. The individuals mutually trust each other, implemented mechanisms for peer review and have the technical support for authorisation and authentication. This way, the workload to provide the software packages for the compute infrastructure is shouldered by many individuals. Grid computing takes this collaboration further. Here, research groups offer access to their local resources not only to other research groups, but they may even grant the right to admit users to virtual organisations - much like the Debian keyring.\r
-\r
-The presentation presents an overview on current grid middleware and computational grids established. The Globus grid middleware and its Debian packaging are explained, together with the packages of the Advanced Resource Connector (ARC). \r
-\r
-Today, the most usecases of the technology are the sharing of the computational resources like plain compute power or storage. With the advent of these packages in the Debian main distribution, the adoption of these packages is expected to become more of a commodity to exchange computational workflows, share the burden to maintain rapidly changing data, or control the limited access to special hardware.\r
-\r
-The speakers are researchers at the Universities of Copenhagen, Lübeck and Uppsala. With funds from several national and international projects in high-energy physics or grid computing, the three are contributing to the development of the ARC grid middleware - and for the provisioning of its Debian packages.</description>

-Debian GNU/Linux supports 12 hardware architectures and 4 more are in various stages of development. Debian GNU/Hurd, Debian GNU/NetBSD and Debian GNU/kFreeBSD are works in progress. Several other distributions use Debian as their foundation.</description>

- <language>English</language>
- <abstract>The [http://www.adaic.com/standards/05rm/html/RM-E.html Distributed Systems Annex] is an optional part of the Ada language that allows writing programs that are distributed across several computers.</abstract>
- <description>Each "partition" of the program, running on one machine, communicates with the others by means of remote procedure calls and shared data structures. Ada provides facilities to make this communication completely transparent to the programmer. Thanks to it, writing a distributed program is no more complex than writing a monolithic one. Indeed, it is possible to recompile a distributed program to make it either distributed or monolithic with no changes to the program source. There are two Free Software implementations of Annex E for GNAT, the GNU Ada compiler: GLADE and its successor [https://libre.adacore.com/polyorb PolyORB], both licensed under terms of the GPL.</description>

- <abstract>NARVAL stands for "Nouvelle Acquisition temps Reel Version 1.6 Avec Linux". It is a distributed data acquisition software system that collects and processes data from nuclear and particles physics detectors.</abstract>
- <description>NARVAL replaces an older system based on C, Fortran and proprietary technologies with Ada and Debian GNU/Linux and is itself Free Software. In order to ensure maximum data safety most of the program is written in Ada with heavy use of Annex E, the Distributed Systems Annex. Software engineers and physicists from several countries use this system for fundamental research. The talk will present the NARVAL architecture in detail with some focus on the multi-tasking dataflow core and the configuration done through Annex E.</description>

- <abstract>This talk will give an introduction to areas inside OOo amenable to graphics hackers - stuff that has the desirable property of instant visual gratification.</abstract>
- <description>Layout: there's currently work underway to give OOo's dialogs an auto-layouting facility. Besides work on the layouting core, there's also help solicited for converting existing dialogs to the new layout-enabled scheme.\r

-Canvas: the new OOo rendering subsystem, and what it can do; showing a prototype of an OpenGL-based implementation plus pointers where interested hackers can start helping Slideshow: probably the easiest way to make an impact to millions of OOo users is to code another Impress 3D slide transition – here's how to do that.</description>

- <track>Systems</track>
- <type>Podium</type>
- <language>English</language>
- <abstract>During this talk, we aim to give you an overview of the Cobbler project,\r
-explain where we'd like to see it going and explain a few use cases.</abstract>
- <description>Cobbler is an installation server, written in Python, which allows for rapid\r
-deployment (and re-deployment) of large amounts of physical and virtual\r
-machines by defining distributions, repositories, profiles and systems as\r
-objects. It's easy to get started with Cobbler, but we ship a lot of\r
-advanced features to make it as versatile as possible, so you won't get\r
-bored with it.</description>

- <abstract>There are many ways of how to ensure the availability of a MySQL Server and how to provide additional redundancy and fault-tolerance.\r
-\r
-In this talk, Lenz will give an overview over some best practices and commonly used HA setups for MySQL.</abstract>
- <description>The talk will cover the Open Source components and tools that are frequently utilized, with a focus on Linux and OpenSolaris. The session will also cover MySQL Cluster, the architecture and relationship to the MySQL Server.</description>

- <track>Systems</track>
- <type>Podium</type>
- <language>English</language>
- <abstract>This talk takes a trip along the Roadmap for Upstart 1.0, introducing\r
- what features will be available.</abstract>
- <description>Linux has always traditionally lacked good service management\r
- facilities, so much so that the typical daemon doesn't use what ones we\r
- have and instead relies on hokey shell scripts.\r
-\r
- Upstart is being developed to not only solve this problem but also how\r
- it, through integration with D-Bus, DeviceKit and similar frameworks,\r
- allows service lifecycles to be tied to hardware and system state.</description>

- <title>Syslinux and the dynamic x86 boot process</title>
- <subtitle></subtitle>
- <track>Kernel</track>
- <type>Podium</type>
- <language>English</language>
- <abstract>This talk will discuss the x86 boot process, how to make it work in a\r
-dynamic system, and the tradeoffs between versatility and reliability.\r
-It will also discuss the Syslinux modular interface and how to use it\r
-to quickly add new features with a minimum of coding.</abstract>
- <description>Originally written during an all-night hacking session in 1994 with\r
-the intent to better support the then-ubiquitous install boot\r
-floppies, Syslinux has evolved over the years into a widely used boot\r
-loader suite with an advanced modular interface, with emphasis on ease\r
-of use and reliability. It is now the most commonly used x86\r
-bootloader for removable media, and is increasingly used for\r
-conventional hard disk booting as well.</description>
