Integrating Maemo development environment with Eclipse<br />
<strong>The</strong> integration of Maemo development environment and<br />
Eclipse is our effort to create an easy-to-use development<br />
tool for developing Maemo-based applications on the Nokia<br />
770.<br />
Pekka Reijula Reijula<br />
Pekka is 24 years old and about to graduate from Tampere University of<br />
Technology as a Master of Science in software engineering, industrial<br />
management, and hypermedia. He comes from a land of a thousand<br />
lakes called Finland, where many great things have been born, such as<br />
Nokia and of course their Eurovision champion Lordi.<br />
Pekka has been involved with computers since the C-64, so it is no<br />
miracle that he has come into the field of computer science. He started<br />
his career as a software developer in 2005 working on a developer tool<br />
project for the Nokia 770. Since autumn, he has been working in TUT as a research assistant<br />
along with his studies, which has worked out surprisingly well.<br />
In his spare time, Pekka loves to do slalom all over Europe and keep himself in good condition with<br />
different sports. On rainy days, he spends time with his never-ending computer configuration<br />
projects and, of course, educational projects.<br />
Automated Software Breaking and Repair:<br />
Culchie, LDTP, and DogTail<br />
Culchie is a tool which allows developers to expose their<br />
application to the silicon equivalent of a demented monkey<br />
on crack. Using the accessibility layer, it interacts with<br />
software in all sorts of ways that the developer may not<br />
have expected. Information obtained from culchie can be<br />
reused in automated test frameworks such as ldtp and<br />
dogtail, allowing the developer to reproduce the failure and<br />
diagnose the bug. This tutorial will provide an overview of<br />
how to do so.<br />

Tutorial<br />
Matthew Garrett is a PhD student in genetics at Cambridge University. As<br />
head of the Ubuntu laptop team he has been involved in making laptops<br />
suck slightly less under Linux, and now seeks to tackle other problems<br />
such as poverty, hunger, war and Bluetooth support. Autographs are<br />
available for €20 or a beer. Laptop support comes at the same price.<br />
