The OS/2 SIG of the Philadelphia Area Computer Society invites
all interested computer users to attend the June meeting:
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 24, 1998 7:00 - 10:00 PM
The Episcopal Academy, 376 N Latches Lane, Merion, PA
*** FEATURE PRESENTATION ***
- - ADVANCES IN JAVA COMPILER TECHNOLOGY - -
The June meeting marks the official start of our expanded charter
to include Java technology and applications as they relate to and
are intimately associated with OS/2. We have a great technical
presentation planned for this meeting. Please mark the date, and
let's try to have a large turnout for our guest speaker.
The guest speaker will be Dr. David Shields, a researcher at IBM's
Watson Research Lab in Hawthorne, NY. He is a co-author of the
JIKES Java compiler.
Dr. Shields will talk about the latest advances in Java compiler
technology, some issues of language specification, and also plans
to demonstrate some recent Java-related work from IBM research.
A copy of the new GA release of Lotus SmartSuite for OS/2 Warp 4
will also be the main raffle prize for some lucky Warp 4 user.
Other agenda items include OS/2 news & new product announcements,
SIG business matters, Q&A session, software raffle, etc. An OS/2
system will be on hand for demos of OS/2, Java, Internet, etc.,
as time may permit. Free light refreshments will also be served.
A total of 123 OS/2 bumper stickers were ordered during May, and
are now on hand for delivery at the June meeting. Bumper stickers
will be mailed to those persons who aren't at the meeting.
