OpenDolphin: presentation models for compelling user interfaces

<!--HTML--><p align="justify"> Shared applications run on the server. They still need a display, though, be it on the web or on the desktop.</p> <p align="justify"> <a href="http://open-dolphin.org/" target="_blank">OpenDolphin</a> introduces a shared presentation model to clearly differentiate between &quot;what&quot; to display and &quot;how&quot; to display. The &quot;what&quot; is managed on the server and is independent of the UI technology whereas the &quot;how&quot; can fully exploit the UI capabilities like the ubiquity of the web or the power of the desktop in terms of interactivity, animations, effects, 3D worlds, and local devices.</p> <p align="justify"> If you run a server-centric architecture and still seek to provide the best possible user experience, then this talk is for you.</p> <h4> About the speaker</h4> <p align="justify"> Dierk K&ouml;nig (JavaOne Rock Star) works as a fellow for <a href="http://www.canoo.ch" target="_blank">Canoo Engineering AG</a>, Basel, Switzerland.
