Presentation title:	Flex in new generation monitoring interfaces
Presentation abstract (200 words max):	Monitoring is critical for applications server maintenance and needs to be reactive and accessible to maintain the quality of service. Such reactiveness can be reached using new Rich Internet Application frameworks. Flex, thanks to its Flash inheritance, brings animated, high level visual components for web interfaces and makes graphical widgets more expressive and easy to use. Such interfaces are highly interactive, more striking and intuitive for administrators and improve their feeling about servers state. Flex also helps in development and design. It provides a modern, standards-based language and programming model that supports common design patterns. It also gives powerful features such as data binding or Java EE interaction using RMI or JMX. Flex is then completely suitable for monitoring interfaces design as it provides reactive and accessible visual components and interact with servers using advanced programming features. OW2 has already started the migration of its middleware monitoring tools to brand new Flex interfaces in order to leverage its actual monitoring architecture like JOnAS audit system.

Speaker bio (150 words max):	Mathieu works as an engineer for SERLI on various Java technologies and UI toolkits. He started his collaboration with OW2 by providing easy-to-use installers for some of the best middleware products hosted by this consortium : JOnAS and EasyBeans. Then, after building a complete JOnAS audit system, he worked on bringing new monitoring interfaces for OW2 middleware components such as JOnAS or EasyBeans. Previously, he worked on image manipulations for bringing old movies to life. He also make research on behavior and emotion related to user interfaces by programming a virtual pet (Aibo) for autistic children. Moreover, he produced some reactive and accessible user interfaces for On-demand services on mobile devices.
