Programming to the extreme - Anemari Fiser

Mar 27th, 2018 2:25 PM

This talk is about sharing how a day of programming to extreme looks like, what are the struggles and mostly what are the benefits of writing code by starting with the tests (TDD), push code directly to production (covering CI, CD concepts) and last, but not least doing this with a pair side by side, 8 hours a day, every day. This methodology, even though had been around for some time now, it’s still a tabu subject and it’s still seen as a hard to approach process. I would like, via this talk to solve some of the doubts and uncertainties that lie around this subject.

Web Design and Front-end Development, who and for whom? - Marta Lobo de Pablos

Mar 27th, 2018 1:31 PM

Have you ever wondered why a website has a specific colour design, different from other? A particularly agressive or naive feel? Specific pictures regarding the topic? You sure have, or have not. I did have, an as I am a newby in this field, I have tons of questions and curiosity facts and doubts about what part of this job relies on the society and the culture of the final users. Because, aren't websites designed and developed for somebody? I would love to know about your opinions and thoughts about this, so if you want to rest from lectures and monologues, come and help me out! No script here, just enthusiasm for sharing knowlegde and experiences :)

Mar 27th, 2018 10:04 AM

En esta charla quiero contaros las principales vías de investigación en las que se está trabajando en el mundo universitario y los avances de las empresas punteras en robótica. Os presentaré la vida de Manuela Veloso, mujer pionera en el campo de la robótica y fundadora de la Robocup. Hablaré, entre otras cosas de un concepto muy interesante: la colaboración entre humanos y robots, conocido como Symbiotic Autonomy, de proyectos de investigación vigentes en la EU y USA sobre robótica, sobre las competiciones anuales y sus objetivos a corto plazo y de los avances de empresas como Boston Dynamics, Aldebaran/Softbank Robotics o Reem-PAL robotics.
