Burton Smith is a Technical Fellow at Microsoft who thinks about ways in which our platform needs to be structured to support general purpose computers that will soon have
clustered super computer processing power as we move closer to manycore everywhere (not too far off into the future...).…
Martin Thompson is the creator of Disruptor, a concurrent programming framework. He's passionate about solving hard problems - like writing scalable concurrent software systems. His session at YOW! - Tackling the Folklore Surrounding High Performance Computing - was excellent. You'll be able to see…
If there were a special geek merit badge for those whose desktop PC has the word "CRAY" across the front, Wenming Ye would have plenty of them. Wenming works just down the hallway from us on Channel 9 exploring the possibilities of HPC (High Performance Computing). I wanted Niners to meet…
