Seaside: Building Complex Web Applications Simply
======================================

20 April 2004 at 17h30
Institut fuer Wirtschaftsinformatik (IWI), Universitaet Bern,
Engehaldenstrasse 8, 3012 Bern, Hoersaal 001

Abstract
======
Seaside  is a framework for developing sophisticated web applications
in Smalltalk. In this talk I will present some of its unique features, 
such as its
approach to session management: unlike servlet models that require a
separate handler for each page or request, Seaside models an entire user
session as a continuous piece of code, with natural, linear control 
flow.
Furthermore I will create a small web-application as a demo together 
with
the audience and present a complex production web-site that has been
built using Seaside. I will present the new features of the just 
released version 2.5.
