GeneXus, a Knowledge-Based Tool

3,300 people attended the XV GeneXus International Meeting during which ARTech launched GeneXus 9.0, announced agreements with its partners, and where Breogán Gonda, President of ARTech, set the date for the end of the paradigm based on manual development.

Describing and not programming is the paradigm that ARTech's President Breogán Gonda proposes and confirms year after year. But at this XV GeneXus International Meeting, Mr. Gonda went beyond that and pointed out that in five years he expects the shift from the programming paradigm and the adoption of the description paradigm.

The sector will not be able to avoid the growing need for greater productivity in development, which increases at a rate that programming languages cannot emulate, while the complexity of the applications requested by clients rises. In five years the sector will embrace the need to work on business knowledge and not on technology.

"ARTech's mission is to deliver a tool that enables building applications which could not be made manually", stated Nicolas Jodal, Vice President of ARTech, during the XV GeneXus International Meeting and he encouraged the GeneXus community to be the leaders in the construction of the next business application generation.

Making inroads in its mission, ARTech presented during this event GeneXus version 9.0 which implies a 100% increase of productivity in GeneXus over its previous version, as explained Breogán Gonda, President of ARTech. (http://www.genexus.com/genexus90)

Besides, the fifteenth GeneXus international meeting was the framework of other important announcements referred to agreements between ARTech and its strategic partners. The creation of a laboratory together with IBM Uruguay and INCO was announced, which will be used to test large scale GeneXus applications on iSeries. The results were presented of a year of work with Microsoft in the Authorized .Net Solution Lab Center in Zonamerica, where 15 companies have participated in developing 100 thousand GeneXus objects and generating 200 million C# code lines. And together with Oracle, Hewlett-Packard and Tilsor, they launched Grid LAB, a laboratory devoted to performing demonstrations about grid computing technologies.

Three thousand three hundred people from 30 countries attended the conferences given over the three days of the XV GeneXus International Meeting whose material is already available online.
