Carlo Bonamico’s weblog

I am happy to announce that I will be speaking at the Javaday Rome 2010, the main Italian event for and by the Java community. An event not to be missed!

My talk will focus on the use of many power tools that are part of JDK since version 1.5, but are at the same time unknown to many developers; specifically, I will discuss how to

• find active JVMs with jps
• anaylze memory consumption and garbage collection behavior with jstat
• get an overview of VM activities with jconsole
• analyze in depth VM behavior with VisualVM, both in the case of local and remote Virtual Machines
• analizzare i bottleneck prestazionali con i profiler di VisualVM
• detect threading issues with the Thread Dump Analyzer
• find causes of OutOfMemory errors and PermGen errors
• detect memory leaks
• trace and debug running applications in production with btrace

If you want to meet me at the event, drop by at my company (NIS) booth in the exhibition hall.

Just a quick post while we recover from the organization effort… I will write a more detailed report as soon as possible. The IDE day was a success, with a participation level that definitely went beyond our best expectations, both in terms of attendance (about 130 people!) and in term of audience interaction (the speakers were overwhelmed with questions!).

Presentation slides will be loaded on the http://www.ideday.org website in the next few days.

In the meantime I publish this picture of the speakers with the organizing group for Genova, which give me the opportunity to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who made this event possible.

The last meeting of the Genova JUG was a very interesting event… you can have a look at the presentations on Model Driven Engineering in Portofino and Nasa World Wind with Java on the JUG Website.

The next meeting will take place on the 22th January 2008 at DIST.  More details will be announced soon…
