Main Presentation
Title: Parallelism in .NET : Doing more with more of less
Description: We stand at the edge of a new paradigm in computing, brought about by the evolution of multi-core CPUs. Programmers have long left multi-threaded programming to the few diehards, while enterprise developers were able to live happily within a single thread. Those times are changing, and the Parallel Extensions to the .NET Framework are here to help. Come learn how Microsoft is innovating in this space, and how you can use this framework to bring your skills forward, after learning just a few simple rules.
Presenter: Tim Rayburn is a Principal Consultant with Sogeti USA, and a Microsoft MVP for Connected Systems Development. He has worked with Microsoft technologies for over 13 years, and is the President and Founder of the Dallas Connected Systems User Group, the organizer of the Dallas TechFest, and blogger at TimRayburn.net. When he’s not pursuing the ever moving technology curve, he is an avid gamer, from consoles to table-top RPGs and is the host of a podcast called Radio Free Hommlet. He welcomes questions about any of the above to tim@timrayburn.net.
