Apple's WWDC event is planned for June 7-11 in San Francisco

Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June will feature iPad development sessions, hands-on working labs for iPhone OS 4, and Mac OS X core technology labs.

The annual event will be held June 7-11 at the Moscone West convention center in San Francisco.

“WWDC provides a unique opportunity for developers to work side-by-side with Apple engineers and interface designers to make their iPhone and iPad apps even better,” said Scott Forstall, Apple senior vice president of iPhone Software, in a statement released by the company.

The event offers advanced content for developers across five key technology tracks: Application frameworks, Internet and Web, graphics and media, developer tools, and core OS.

Apple released the iPad device and announced iPhone OS 4, featuring multitasking, earlier this month. WWDC will not be the first-ever developer conference for iPad, however. The iPadDevCamp conference, also this month, apparently holds that distinction.

Some of the sessions at WWDC will include Implementing Local and Push Notifications; Future Proofing Your App; What’s New in Foundation for iPhone OS 4; and Working Effectively with Objective-C on iPhone OS.
