Bram Smeets

Senior Consultant at Interface21, Core Developer of Spring Modules and DWR

Bram Smeets
Bram is an enterprise java architect who started working with java since 1996 and J2EE since early 2000 and has been in the lead for numerous Agile development projects over the last years. He has been using Ajax since the summer of 2004 extensively in many projects. He has been working for JTeam and Interface21 since both were founded.

Currently, Bram is core developer for Spring Modules. Spring Modules aims at facilitating the integration between the Spring framework and other projects, without extending Spring's core. Furthermore, he is developer for DWR, a project that aims to provide easy AJAX for Java. His main focus is on the integration between DWR and Spring.

Apart from his passion for Java, Spring and Ajax he likes to travel the world with his beloved girlfriend Petra. His favorite destinations are the best scuba diving spots, which luckily happen to be the most beautiful parts of the world.

This session will focus on using DWR within a web application environment to add rich, dynamic behavior without the hassle of knowing the ins-and-outs of XmlHttpRequest.



Buzzwords like AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript And XML) and HttpXmlRequest have been flying around Java blogs for months now. Frameworks around these technologies are growing more mature.

At the end of the day Ajaxian frameworks set out to accomplish one primary directive: make it as easy as possible to create rich web applications that enhance the overall user experience. The DWR (Direct Web Remoting) is one project that aims to support this directive by providing easy AJAX for Java.

This session will focus on using DWR within a web application environment to add rich, dynamic behavior without the hassle of knowing the ins-and-outs of HttpXmlRequest. Most importantly, attendees will learn practical techniques to improve the user experience.
