Android development best practices : Modularity
by Francis Toth
Francis is an Android/Java Developer with good experience in Web programming, and has been working more than 7 years for government institutions, web agencies, in investment banking, and in the tertiary sector as well.

Talk summary
Péreniser une application n'est pas chose aisée et nécessite de prendre en compte plusieurs paramètres pour y parvenir. Parmi ceux-ci, on retrouve la Modularité, nécessaire à la garantie de la maintenabilité et de l'extensibilité d'un système. Bien plus qu'un concept abstrait, cette notion s'avère être essentielle à tous les niveaux d'une architecture, depuis la relation entre deux objets, jusqu'aux interactions d'une application avec son environnement. Durant cette présentation, nous verrons les aspects fondamentaux de ce principe ainsi que la manière de l'appliquer dans un projet Android.
Achieving scalability is not easy and requires to consider several parameters. Modularity is one of them, and ensures a system's maintainability and extensibility. More than just an abstract concept, it turns out to be essential at all levels, from the relationship between two objects, to the interactions between an application with its environment. In this talk, we'll cover the main aspects of this concept and the ways to apply it.
Dependency Injection on Android with RoboGuice
by Etienne Caron
Etienne is a mobile software developer for Nuance Communications. He's part of the R&D team that works on Nina™, the virtual assistant for mobile customer service.
Talk summary
Dependency Injection has been a popular pattern in the web-oriented Java world for quite some years now. It was made popular in no small part following this article written in 2004 by Martin Fowler.
Google Guice was introduced in 2008, and being the first DI framework using Java annotations, it went on to win that year's Jolt Award for best Library, Framework, or Component.
This will be an introduction to RoboGuice, or "Google Guice on Android".
