HTML5: A Primer

with Heidi Pan, Staff Engineer, Intel Corp.

Abstract: We are at an inflection point today, where the performance and feature advances in HTML5 technologies combined with increasing device and OS fragmentation are fueling the adoption of the web as a platform of choice across the compute continuum.  HTML5 is emerging as a compelling programming platform with its rich OS-like features, high developer productivity and cross-platform reach. This talk provides a high-level technical overview of client-side web technologies that serve as the foundation for HTML5.
