ACCU London:Java, Python, Ruby, Linux, Windows, are all doomed
Java, Python, Ruby, Linux, Windows, are all doomed
The Multicore Revolution gathers pace. Moore's Law remains in force -- chips are getting more and more
transistors on a quarterly basis. Intel are now out and about touting the "many core chip". The 80-core
chip continues its role as research tool. The 48-core chip is now actively driving production engineering.
Heterogeneity not homogeneity is the new "in" architecture.
Where Intel research, AMD and others cannot be far behind.
The virtual machine based architectures of the 1990s, Python, Ruby and Java, currently cannot cope with the
new hardware architectures. Indeed Linux and Windows cannot cope with the new hardware architectures
either.
So either we will have lots of hardware which the software cannot cope with, or . . .
. . . well you'll just have to come to the session.
WANT TO LEARN MORE? THEN CHECK OUT OUR EXPERT WORKSHOPS!
Russel Winder's Python WorkshopIn this 4-day Python Workshop, you will learn both low-level details of Python as well as the idiomatic design approaches in Python. We'll start with the language basics after which we discuss various testing strategies and their rationale. Through lectures, exercises and discussions, we'll introduce Concurrency and Parallelism after which we'll learn about GUI's. We'll then explore Networking, XML processing and Persistence when developing applications with Python. Find out more here
Functional Programming eXchange 2013
Skills Matter is pleased to announce the Fourth Functional Programming eXchange our annual conference on the functional programming paradigm, practices, technologies and ideas. Join us for a day of talks, open-space discussions and brainstorming on Functional Programming, to share common challenges in the different languages, the latest ideas, best tools, best practices in scala, clojure, haskell and F# and common lessons learned.

Tomas Petricek’s and Phil Trelford’s Real-World F# Programming
Tomas Petricek’s and Phil Trelford’s two day course will teach you how to solve real-world .NET problems in F#. Will guide you through several areas where F# can help you be more productive and solve your problems faster, with code that is efficient and easy to maintain. The examples used in this course are based on experience of developing successful commercial applications in F#.
After attending, you’ll be able to recognize where using F# can save your time and money and you’ll know how to integrate F# components in the .NET ecosystem. Find out more here
Tomas Petricek & Phil Trelford's Functional Programming in .NET Tomas Petricek’s and Phil Trelford’s two-day Functional Programming in .NET course explains concepts that you need to write modern applications for .NET using F#, C# with LINQ as well as current and upcoming .NET technologies that arise from functional programming ideas.
Learning several simple functional concepts will help you understand these technologies and use them effectively. This means that the course will make you a better programmer even if you’re not going to immediately start using F#. This course is based on experience of developing commercial applications in F# and we’ll discuss good ways of introducing F# to your daily work.. Find out more here
