Conferences and workshops
14h00 - 2D Animation Engines and Perf Experiments by Louis-Rémi Babé
The Open Web offers different options to create 2D effects and games: DOM manipulation, HTML generation, canvas 2D drawing and even WebGL.
In this session, we'll see how to create a 30loc Animation Engine able to use those different "backends", how they compare in performance and what are their other advantages/inconvenients.
about the speaker: Louis-Rémi is a long time Open Web enthusiast and jQuery contributor with a passion for performances and 2D graphics. He is constantly experimenting with new ways to improve animation performances and is now an intern at Mozilla Paris, writing technical blog posts and demos for hacks.mozilla.org.
15h00 - WebGL osgjs framework by Cédric Pinson

In 2007, he joined Outflop where he served as the project leader for 3D client technology. He is a contributor to the OpenSceneGraph project and the author and maintainer of osgAnimation, the OpenSceneGraph's animation nodekit.
