[Alan Gunderson]

*2009 Greetings from the Tulsa Java Users Group  *

My name is Alan Gunderson and I am the VP of the Tulsa Java Users 
Group.  I am responsible for arranging presentations for our group.  We 
are very fortunate to have an awesome presentation for our first meeting 
this year.  See the details below or on our group web site at 
http://www.tulsajava.com.  Our first meeting of 2009 will be held 
Monday, January 5th starting at 6:00 p.m.  I would like to extend an 
invitation to the members of the OKC Java User's Group to attend our 
presentation or to schedule time in the Oklahoma City area with our 
speaker on January 6th or 7th.

**The Tulsa JUG is very fortunate to have this presentation from 
Alexander v. Zitzewitz of hello2morrow, Inc. 
<http://www.hello2morrow.com/> Alexander is visiting us from the Boston 
area.  I encourage everyone that can attend to do so.  **

**  Golden Rules For Managing Your Architecture
**

*

It is always beneficial for a project to define a clear software 
architecture.  But how can you fight growing deviations between the 
planned architecture and the physical code base?  How can you avoid 
expensive redesigns and refactoring phases?  How can you achieve an 
outstanding technical quality of your code base?  The session explains 
the basics concepts of architecture management for Java projects and 
introduces several simple rules that help you to keep your project on track.

In the session you will learn:

*

    * **how to cut your application into layers, vertical slices and
      subsystem and define the allowed dependencies between these
      elements.**
    * **how to map your code base to these logical entities.**
    * **some useful software metrics, that help you to fight local
      complexity.**
    * **strategies to automatically enforce dependency restrictions and
      metric rules**

*

At the end of the session a tool based approach for architecture 
management will be shown.

ImageAlexander v. Zitzewitz is one of the founders of hello2morrow and 
has more than 20 years of experience with object oriented software 
development and software architecture in general. He has a degree in 
Computer Science from Technical University of Munich. In July he moved 
to Massachusetts to build up the North American operations of 
hello2morrow. Besides computers and software architecture Alexander 
likes Red Wine, good Jazz, hiking, strategy games and sunny weather.
