The Future of application development paradigms is present in Chile
Nicolás Jodal on behalf of Artech, and Wilson Pais and Martín Cabrera for Microsoft, will talk about application innovation in Chile, on November 26.
The Future of Application Development Paradigms will take place on November 26 at 2 p.m., at the premises of Microsoft Chile (Mariano Sanchez Fontecilla 310, Piso 6. Las Condes Santiago, Chile). Registration is open.
The day's activities will be focused on application development and maintenance, and the complex challenges facing developers when it comes to choosing technological models to base their work.
Which model should I choose? Will the technology that I use allow me to adapt to changes in the future? How do I convert my Web applications to RIA? How relevant will cloud computing be? What effect will the creation of new programming languages have? These are some of the topics that will be considered

“We are in a moment when, in order to keep up with the pace of innovation, technology companies –software developers in particular- will have to change paradigms, that is to say, change the way they do things. In our opinion, developers should take the leap from writing applications to describing them."
"In spite of the continuous improvements introduced by base technologies such as .NET, Java, etc., software development is still a largely manual task. The abstraction level on which we keep developing our applications doesn't match the complexity required by the business today. Paradigms such as Knowledge-Based Development (GeneXus) make it possible to develop applications based on higher-level "executable models" that will allow us to reach productivity levels that are more adequate to reality.
Microsoft and Artech have been working together since the mid-90s to create comprehensive solutions for software development on the Microsoft platform.
Microsoft and Artech
In the year 2000, Artech was distinguished as the best software development company by Microsoft Uruguay. In addition, it was one of the 20 companies worldwide that took part in the ISV Early Adopter Program for .NET in the year 2001, becoming a member of the Visual Studio Integration (currently, Industry) Program (VSIP) in that same year.
