Are you interested in learning the ins and outs of Sentilla's novel Java platform? Do you want to kick the tires and learn how to build efficient pervasive Java applications? Do you have questions about how garbage collection works? Do you want to know about the Driver model? How about performing asynchronous operations from a synchronous threaded context in Java? And how do you manage all those threads on a resource constrained device with only 10kB of memory?

You are in luck! I'm pleased to announce that I will be covering these topics and more at this year's JavaOne conference. I am presenting a Technical Session in the Java Mobile and Embedded Track (TS-5428). The session is intended for intermediate to advanced Java and system programmers. We'll be covering the cool technical details of how we fit all of this Java goodness into such a small package. More importantly, I'll tell you how you can take advantage of Sentilla's platform today to build applications that simply haven't been possible before!

JavaOne, held and sponsored by Sun, is the premier venue for everything Java attended by over 15,000 Java professionals. JavaOne is in San Francisco from May 6 to 9th. Registration is open now.

Topics include:

• Pervasive computing overview
• Virtual machine architecture for embedded computers
• Driver architecture
• Memory management
• Asynchronous in a Synchronous context
• Bridging the real world and enterprise world through objects

James Gosling tells us that this year's JavaOne registration is already up over last year's, with steady growth from year to year. We recommend registering soon if you don't want to miss out, and sign up for the Sentilla technical session. The important number you need to remember is TS-5428, that's the session identifier to sign up.

This is the first of many activities that Sentilla will be participating in at JavaOne. We'll going to turn tons of Java programmers into real world programmers throughout JavaOne. Stay tuned for many more announcements.
