A Java Refactoring Story
‘Entropy is the price of a Structure ‘. But sometimes, the price turns too high to pay. Is your Java codebase turning untestable, unreadable, and unmaintainable? Does your costs to add new features aren’t meeting the ROI?

Do You Really Do Functional Programming in Java?
Many Java developers believe that Functional Programming (FP) arrived in Java 8, with the addition of first-class lambda expressions and the Streams API. But is this really true? This presentation discusses what FP really is, examines whether Java can really be said to be FP or not – and considers …
How Java & Scala Imitate Functional Languages
Functional programmers have been saying for decades that they know the way to the future. Clearly they’ve been wrong, since imperative languages are still far more popular. Clearly they’ve also been right, as the advantages of functional programming have become increasingly obvious.
How Java is Imitating Functional Languages
Functional programmers have been saying for decades that they know the way to the future. Clearly they have been wrong, since imperative languages like Java are still far more popular. Clearly they have also been right, as the advantages of functional programming have become increasingly obvious.
Functional Programming in Java with Lambda
Functional programming is a programming style that treats computation as the evaluation of mathematical functions and avoids changing-state and mutable data. It is a declarative programming paradigm in that programming is done with expressions or declarations instead of statements. For years, the conventional wisdom around attempting pure functional programming in …
Functional Libraries for Java 8
Java 8 provides us with new APIs to support a functional programming style. While the standard Java provides us with a good basis, we sometimes wish for even shorter or powerful ways to write clean code for complex tasks. This talk presents some additional libraries for Java 8 (and beyond) …
