Con motivo del lanzamiento de Java 8, vamos a tener la oportunidad de hospedar una de las citas del NightHacking Tour de Stephen Chin.

Cuando tengamos una idea más clara del número de asistentes, anunciaremos el sitio donde se celebrará.

Este es el abstract de la charla:
"Java 8 Lambdas and Devices

Java 8 is the most impactful update to the Java ecosystem since Java 5, introducing an entirely new programming model with lambda expressions, and a whole new platform of applications with support for ARM embedded devices. In this presentation, you will learn how to take advantage of the new lambda-enabled Java 8 APIs including enhanced collections, functional interfaces, and simplified event handlers. Also, you will see live demonstrations of Java 8 technology running on embedded platforms such as Raspberry Pi and Lego Mindstorms EV3, allowing Java-based applications to support the internet-of-things. Come and learn how to build the future of Java.
