User experience driven architecture

Location: 
Legends Ballroom - Robinson-Whitman
Abstract: 

Coming from a traditional web application background, the definition of user experience was slapping some UI jazz on top of some data received from the server. On a recent project, developing tablet based learning platform, our world was turned upside down because the user experience was a major focus of the platform, almost to the point where it was driving our architecture in a big way. Come experience for yourself the exciting journey we have undertook in building user experience driven architecture.
