09.30-10.30    MANAGING PARALLELISM: EMBRACE DIVERSITY

If you want to program a parallel computer, it obviously makes sense to start with a computational paradigm in which parallelism is the default (ie functional programming), rather than one in which computation is based on sequential flow of control (the imperative paradigm). And yet, and yet ... functional programmers have been singing this tune since the 1980s, but do not yet rule the world. more...

10.45-11.30    FUNCTIONAL WEB: FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMING FO

Sadek Drobi: Functional programming is often perceived as being good for either doing mathematics or multi-core programming. As for its huge benefits for modern web architecture and development, they are not really known. more...

11.40-12.25    BLAZEHTML: A BLAZINGLY FAST HTML COMBINA

Jasper Van der Jeugt: First, a brief overview of the Haskell web development scene is given. Then, we introduce BlazeHtml, a blazingly fast HTML combinator library. more...

13.30-14.15    LIFT: TRANSFORMING WEB DEVELOPMENT

David Pollak: Functional programming languages take a transformative approach to computing: inputs are transformed to output rather than changing variables and describing step-by-step instructions to the CPU. more...

14.30-15.15    CLIENT-BASED WEB APPS IN F# WITH WEBSHAR

Adam Granicz: In this talk, I will demonstrate how to use WebSharper 2.0, a web development framework for F#, to turn existing F# applications to WebSharper applications, and how to develop a small website project that consumes third-party JavaScript libraries. You'll learn how you can bring similar libraries into the typed discipline of F#, and to compose your site projects via various abstractions ranging from smallto site-wide. more...

15.30-15.50    VSLAB PLUGIN

Antonio Cisternino: VSLab is an F# plugin for Visual Studio allowing to draw graphics into VS toolwindows directly from the F# interactive session. more...

15.55-16.15    F# ON THE SERVER-SIDE

Tomas Petricek: Server-side applications are interesting because they concurrently handle multiple requests in parallel. On systems where threads are expensive, it is important to do this without unnecessary blocking of system threads. In this talk, we'll look how to use F# synchronous workflows to implement a simple web server. more...

16.20-16.40    SCRAP YOUR BOILERPLATE WITH SCALA

Miles Sabin: The "scrap your boilerplate" approach to generic programming in Haskell has shown how we can write generic traversals of data structures whilst still being able to accommodate type-specific cases. more...

11.40-12.25    F# IN THE ENTERPRISE

Simon Cousins: Not sure where or how to use F# in your applications? E.ON Energy Trading uses F# to develop algorithmically complex, business critical, low-latency components within enterprise applications. Key to the success of these components is the adoption of the functional programming style that F# encourages. Find out more...

13.30-14.15    SIMPLER SCALABILITY, FAULT-TOLERANCE, CO

Jonas Boner & Viktor Klang: We believe that writing correct concurrent, fault-tolerant and scalable applications is too hard. Most of the time it's because we are using the wrong tools and the wrong level of abstraction. more...
