Here are details of my submitted topics:
Head First i18N (Internationalization)
This presentation will explain the first steps of creating
multi-language applications and methods in ColdFusion with best
practices. The main goals will be explaining the structure of
multi-language applications, defining requirements and solutions, and
providing best practices with code samples.
Explaining the theory for i18N (internationalization), L10N
(localization), g11N (globalization) and other known approaches,
defining opportunities to create effective solutions such as Java
platform tools usage or designing better database or setting up your
environment to make multilingual applications easier to write are some
of the topics.
Hands-on: Creating our first i18N (Internationalization) Application
This session is designed to create a basic application which has i18N
capability with static, dynamic content and database and other platform
integration. Every possible integration points such as database, XML or
web services etc. will be included in the application with samples.
Designed for 3 hours session and needs to have a laptop with ColdFusion
installation and one of the database engines of MySQL or MSSQL.
Multi Lingual (i18N) Flex & AIR Applications
This presentation will explain the theory of creating multi-language
applications and methods in Flex & AIR with best practices. Main
goals of this presentation are explaining multi-language applications
theory, defining requirements and solutions, and providing best
practices with code samples.
The Power of Refactoring
During this session, we will get into the power of refactoring. Why?
How? And why it is actually saving time instead of wasting time.
Examples will be provided from a legacy code and ways to refactor with
modern software techniques and architecture.
Designed for mid to senior level ColdFusion developers.
Hidden Secrets of ColdFusion Hosting
Hosting is a part of all our web based activities and deciding on the
right company would be a key decision on production environments.
Having a reliable service with required hardware/software and
environment would be a life saver. Key points such as conditions,
support for technology, hotline support, location, fees etc. would be
hidden points while deciding a hosting solution. This presentation will
cover defining better hosting requirements and steps of evaluating
hosting services based on a well formed check list. All possible
hosting solutions such as shared, dedicated/virtual server or managed
hosting will be covered.
Sourceless Code Deployment
This presentation will explain "Sourceless Code Deployment" which is a
new feature that comes with ColdFusion MX 7 & 8. It also focuses on
confusion about sourceless deployment and J2EE deployment (EAR or WAR)
or which version of ColdFusion we need to do which task. There will
also be some examples of different scenarios in the presentation.
The Power of MySQL
MySQL has become the world's most popular open source database because
of its consistent fast performance, high reliability and ease of use*.
*This is why the big players such as Flickr selected MySQL would be a
good case in point. Not only is MySQL the world's most popular open
source database, it is even easier to use with ColdFusion 8 because of
native support. This presentation will cover the benefits of using
MySQL as a database platform and showing possibilities and key points
of ease of usage. Troubleshooting in ColdFusion 7 and old versions and
correct usage of new ColdFusion 8 drivers and hidden gems will be also
included. Presentation will also provide real time performance tests
with MySQL and other database solutions with ColdFusion.
Building Scalable Web Applications with ColdFusion
This presentation will explain the importance of the architecturing
software and steps for considering future of the applications. Both
software and hardware systems of any application needs to be designed
in a proper way to handle unexpected load or number of records in the
database and possible problems and solutions to address these issues.
Designed for mid to senior level ColdFusion developers.
Building Social Web Applications
As a person who works for a company which has more than 20 different
social web applications with ColdFusion, I would like to share our
experiences. Beside ColdFusion, this presentation will give some sample
cases which can be utilized related technologies such as BlazeDS,
CoComo or search engines APIs which are designed for social web
solutions.
Geolocation with ColdFusion
What's the killer app of the web? It might just be geolocation, a
service that opens up tons of new business and service opportunities.
Plus, the visual rock. See the cutting edge in mapping from the
entrepreneurs leading the way with ColdFusion.
Adobe Server Platform Solutions Explained for Managers
This presentation will contain information about Adobe Server Platform
Solutions such as ColdFusion, Flex, LiveCycle, BlazeDS etc. for
managers. It is always valuable to explain technologies to the decision
makers and sometimes a big mandatory to get right direction and budget.
I did this presentation approximately for every company that I worked
for and would like to share tips with developers.
The Power of 64 bit
64 bit platforms are everywhere now and it is time to utilize them in
our business. ColdFusion also has 64 bit support and benefits are
promising and needs to be considered when especially performance is an
issue. And not only ColdFusion, 64 bit OS and database solutions would
be also important for a healthy platform. Scale up!
ColdFusion Server Security
While talking about secure ColdFusion code, we should also consider
security on the server side. This presentation will focus on the server
side security problems with possible scenarios including security on
the related platforms such as database and web servers.
Content Management Systems (CMS) with ColdFusion
When we consider possible CMS (Content Management Solution)
alternatives in CFML worlds, we can see really powerful solutions. It
is good to have alternatives and it is time to decide a proper solution
for our case. Which CMS solution can be helpful for our case? What are
pros and cons? This session will be an evaluation of possible CMS
solutions with demos.
Project Management 101
Everybody can learn doing project management better. As an IT guy who
worked for different kind of software projects as a developer, project
manager and technical manager, I would like to share some best
practices on project management. The main goal is understanding teams,
environments, technologies, and organizing all of these aspects with
evolving IT culture. This presentation will include project management
fundamentals, concepts, methodologies, and self-check practices with
well known project management problems.

Have fun! :)
I have a surprise this morning that I need to present another topic at WebManiacs and today and just ~2 hours later. :)
Confrence team requested from speakers to fill out some presentations and I had replied that I can present this topic. But there was no confirmation. While checking the topics this morning I saw my name on the list. :)
I think this is probably because of a small disorganization and I had to check all topics in advance. But anyway I have to prepare my slides now. :)
See you ...
