From LINQ to SilverLight – Watch videos and hear about all the cool technologies coming and the people behind them. http://channel9.msdn.com/Tags/technical+computing en Mon, 20 May 2013 04:15:36 GMT Mon, 20 May 2013 04:15:36 GMT Rev9 6 1 25 Stefan Karpinski and Jeff Bezanson - Julia Programming Language "Julia is a high-level, high-performance dynamic programming language for technical computing, with syntax that is familiar to users of other technical computing environments. It provides a sophisticated compiler, distributed parallel execution, numerical accuracy, and an extensive mathematical function library." - julialang.org

Here, we meet two members of the Julia design team - Stefan Karpinski and Jeff Bezanson - to get a casual peek inside Julia (why a new language, what makes it special, why "Julia" for the name, etc...). You can (and should!) watch Stefan and Jeff's Lang.NEXT 2012 session for more details (and more formality).

Tune in.

]]> http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Migrating-Your-HPC-Applications-to-the-Windows-Platform-Level-300 The latest version of Windows HPC Server offers the signature advantages of a Windows operating system such as ease of use, advanced professional development tools, and unparalleled binary compatibility. However, the migration of applications to a Windows platform can be a learning experience for a typical high-performance computing (HPC) developer with a strong UNIX background. In this webcast, we discuss the anatomy of a typical HPC application and the general porting process. We explain how to use cross-platform development tools such as Cygwin, CMake, Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA), and the migration API reference guide. We also provide an update on the status of OSS solver and I/O libraries.  Powerpoint Presentation 3286 http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Migrating-Your-HPC-Applications-to-the-Windows-Platform-Level-300 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 06:02:00 GMT http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Migrating-Your-HPC-Applications-to-the-Windows-Platform-Level-300 Wenming Ye Wenming Ye 0 http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Migrating-Your-HPC-Applications-to-the-Windows-Platform-Level-300/RSS HPC Server 2008 HPC Server 2008R2 math library migration Science Technical Computing Windows 2000 Server MSDN Webcast: Taking Scientific Computing Mainstream with Windows Client & Windows HPC Server 2008 R2 (Level 200) Powerpoint resentation link
]]> http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Taking-Scientific-Computing-Mainstream-with-Windows-Client--Windows-HPC-Server-2008-R2- The Windows operating systems are well known for binary compatibility, and this extends to high-performance computing (HPC) applications. In this webcast, we explain how on Windows the same Message Passing Interface (MPI) executable can run on a workstation or across a large cluster without having to recompile, making development, testing, and supporting of HPC software easier and lowering the barrier of entry for HPC application users. Learn how to take advantage of this capability with popular open-source code such as WRF, NAMD, GROMACS, VisIt, ParaView, HDF5, and PETSc, giving you the ability to deploy and popularize your scientific software as widely as possible. Powerpoint resentation link 4724 http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Taking-Scientific-Computing-Mainstream-with-Windows-Client--Windows-HPC-Server-2008-R2- Sat, 13 Mar 2010 06:01:00 GMT http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Taking-Scientific-Computing-Mainstream-with-Windows-Client--Windows-HPC-Server-2008-R2- Wenming Ye Wenming Ye 0 http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Taking-Scientific-Computing-Mainstream-with-Windows-Client--Windows-HPC-Server-2008-R2-/RSS HPC Server 2008 HPC Server 2008R2 math library migration Science Technical Computing Windows 2000 Server New Parallel Capabilities of the Visual Studio 2010 Profiler
