What's the C# team up to these days? Who's on the C# 4.0 design team, anyway? With the looming problem of manycore facing developers now and certainly in the near future (to a much greater extent - programming for 80 core (asymmetric to boot) processors,
anyone?). I thought it was time to…
Concurrency is a problem that faces all developers as we move to the age of ManyCore processor architectures. Managing state is an important aspect of programming generally and for parallel programming especially. The great Brian
Beckman demonstrates three ways of labeling a binary tree with…
Hi, I am Daniel Moth This screencast assumes knowledge of the C++ AMP API, e.g. that you totally understand the matrix multiplication implementation in C++ AMP. So if you satisfy that prerequisite, watch this screencast on what features are available in Visual Studio 2012…

Josh Phillips(PM), Niklas Gustafsson(Architect), and Artur Laksberg(Developer) of the Parallel Computing Platform Team spend some time with me to discuss a managed (.NET-based) DSL (Domain Specific Language) for concurrent programming, Maestro. Maestro
incorporates well-entrenched language…
Here, we continue our exploration of the morphology of Windows 7 on Going Deep with windows kernel architect Dave Probert. You may remember him from an early
four part episode of Going Deep where he teaches us about general purpose operating system architectures and history:
Part 1,…
Scott Guthrie, Corporate Vice President, leads the teams that create the .NET developer and designer technologies and tools.
Silverlight 3 has arrived in beta form.
Expression 3 also ships today in Preview form. Grab the bits and play. Provide feedback. OK. That's the housekeeping stuff. Now,…
In this episode of 10-4, we start taking a look at Parallel Extensions to the .NET Framework. We'll look at some of the surface-area of the Parallel Extensions API and provide you with enough information to start working with it yourself in the Visual Studio
2010 CTP VPC.
Remember…
A few years ago I got the chance to learn about Software Transactional Memory for the first time while visiting MSR Cambridge.
The great Simon Peyton-Jones and Tim Harris explained to me the thinking behind STM and how it might evolve. It was a tremendously interesting…
It's always a pleasure to get a chance to sit down and geek out with Anders Hejlsberg. Anders is a Microsoft Technical Fellow (a Technical Fellow is the highest ranking technical position at Microsoft) and programming language design master. He's the creator
of C# and one of the founders…
