Hi,

IFAS Information Technology Office is organizing an intensive course
titled "Modeling Agricultural Systems Using the Object-Oriented Paradigm
and the Unified Modeling Language" to be held March 2 & 3, 2005 in
Gainesville, Florida. The course will be held on the University of
Florida campus, and is geared toward IT Managers, Programmers, Data
Modelers and Client-server/Web Developers. Participants will be
introduced to concepts such as abstraction, polymorphism and
encapsulation, and will learn how to use these concepts in
object-oriented software development.

Furthermore, this short course will help attendees understand what
classes, attributes and methods are, and how they can be used to build
software. The course will introduce the basics of the UML and
demonstrate how to build several UML diagrams required for software
development. 

Details of the program can be found in the attached PDF file of the
course brochure as well as on the course web site located at:

Hope this helps,

Sincerely
