| Re: December Meeting - 6:30 Comcast Center - Building Stuff With Erlang |
Hey folks,
It turns out that the catering and space in the Comcast center aren't available tomorrow due to a holiday party. Sorry to do this at the last minute, but I'm going to have to push the date of the meeting back to December 13th at the same time.
New doodle poll incoming shortly. Again terribly sorry!
Thanks,

As those of you who clicked the doodle link may have observed, the intended title is "Building Stuff with the Actor Model". The focus can be on Erlang though if people are into it.

Doodle poll is here - http://www.doodle.com/36v6xvn43y6sknt8And abstract as follows:Learn the basics of building massively parallel fault tolerant systems using the actor model. For those of you not familiar with the actor model it is a play on OO except with asynchrony, lots of parallelism, and plenty of room for failure. I'll probably focus largely on Akka and Scala, but credit must be given where it's due, Erlang, for popularlizing the paradigm. Slides aren't put together yet, so if there's anything in particular you would like to hear about requests are welcomed, but there are no guarantees.
Thanks,MBL
