Presentation: "Architecting Fun: Building League of Legends, a Massive Online Game"Time: Wednesday 11:45 - 12:45 Location: Fleming Room
Abstract: This talk will be a walk through of the software and data architectures as well as the development and testing procedures used by Riot Games to prepare for the launch of their game League of Legends. As companies shift to distributed development and processing models, however, the problems solved in the video game space will become the problems of more conventional organizations.
Keywords: Java, video games, online, large scale Target Audience: Software developers and architects who need to solve problems of scale in their systems will learn techniques to prepare for and validate their plans to build big systems. |
