Ajax and comet are great techniques for getting data to and from the
server, But they do little to address the requirements of sophisticated
web application user interfaces. Cross-component interactions,
synchronization, state management and other requirements for such
applications may be solved through an event-driven approach. Dojo and
other toolkits significantly extend the browser-provided event models
(usually limited to the DOM) to include method-to-method connections,
topic/publish/subscribe models, aspect-oriented programming advice, and
other advanced event techniques. This talk will compare event models
across popular toolkits, and provide examples for several real-world
application interface development use cases.

It all started in 1999 when Dylan dropped out of the PhD program at UCLA and left the fascinating world of statistics of shear-induced rearrangements in a two-dimensional model foam and the accumulation of glucosaminyl(acyl)phosphatidylinositol in an S3 HeLa subline expressing normal dolicholphosphomannose synthase activity to refocus his efforts on the future of the web. As CEO of SitePen and co-founder of the Dojo Toolkit, Dylan is best known for building web applications that make use of JavaScript/Ajax, Dojo, and other standard web development technologies. He has helped develop web apps for companies including Renkoo, Informatica, Security FrameWorks, and Vizional Technologies.
