Register for StS 2004 here and hear Paul Baumann talk about SRP:

Introduction to State Replication Protocol (SRP)
presentation
Paul Baumann:
Monday 8:30:00 am to 9:15:00 am

Abstract: SRP is a multi-dialect framework for binary serialization of objects. SRP currently exchanges objects between seven Smalltalk dialects: Dolphin, GemStone/S, Smalltalk/X, Squeak, VisualAge, VisualSmalltalk, and VisualWorks. SRP excels at portability and space efficiency.

An overview and demonstration of the SRP is presented. Participants will understand how to use the framework, how data is encoded for portability, how to customize replication, how to exchange objects, and how to apply various encoding options. Other topics likely to be discussed are portable mapping rules, metastates, remote references, and proxies. Version 3.0 of SRP will be available at the presentation.

Bio: Paul Baumann has developed Smalltalk applications since 1992. He is proficient in code management and in the development of portable frameworks.

See you in Seattle!
