QA&TEST has several benefits; one is the location

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

For the seventh time QA&TEST will be held in one of Spain’s most dynamic cities; Bilbao. Bilbao used to be an industrial city, but now a days it has been transformed into an modern and attractive city with architectural highlights like; the Conference Centre and Concert Hall Euskalduna Jauregia, where QA&TEST will be held, the Guggenheim Museum (Frank Gehry), the Calatrava airport , the Metro designed by Norman Foster,  and some Isozaki projects. These are examples of the sweeping vitality that breathe in Bilbao, a city in which converge tradition and modernity.

Euskalduna Jauregia

Besides all those modern improvements we can not forget Bilbao gastronomy, well-known for the quality of its products and expertise of its chefs: menus for all tastes and accessible to everyone. And of course, the famous pintxos may be tasted in traditional areas: Casco Viejo, “Pozas” and Deusto.
So besides the high quality of the conference you have the possibility to enjoy a warm and friendly city, with a rich culture and a fantastic gastronomy.

PPOOA architecture in QA&TEST

PPOOA, Processes Pipelines in Object Oriented Architectures is an architectural style for concurrent object oriented architectures. It can be used when individual paths of execution are required to be concurrent and several processes may be positioned along the path to control the action.
PPOOA is based on the paradigm of “production line” where different software processes are acting on the information in sequence and process or transforms the data, in the same way to a production line where different operators or machines process or assemble a product.
