Antwerpen (www.cvoantwerpen.be), a community college in Belgium. He received
a Ph.D. in Applied Physics from University of Antwerp in 1986. He worked for 20
years in the software industry as a developer and consultant in several companies,
and for 10 years as a project manager at the University Hospital of Antwerp. From
2000 onward, he switched to partly teaching and partly developing software
(KHM Mechelen, CVO Antwerp). He also wrote an introductory book in Dutch
about developing in Ruby and Rails: Programmeren met Ruby en Rails, Van Duuren
Media, ISBN: 9789059403659, 2009, 420 p. In 2012, he authored a book on the Go
programming language: The Way To Go, IUniverse, ISBN: 9781469769172, 600 p. Dzenan Ridjanovic is a university professor who is planning his early
retirement to focus on the development of web applications with Dart, HTML5,
web components, and NoSQL databases. For more than 10 years, he was a
Director of Research and Development in the Silverrun team (http://www.
silverrun.com/), which created several commercial tools for analysis, design,
and development of datadriven applications. He was a principal developer of
Modelibra (http://www.modelibra.org/) tools and frameworks for modeldriven
development in Java. Recently, he has been developing the Dartling framework for
design and code generation of Dart models. His projects are at GitHub (https://
github.com/dzenanr), where he is considered a Dart expert (http://osrc.dfm.
io/dzenanr). He writes about his projects at On Dart blog (http://dzenanr.
