GoingNative 2013 livestream pe channel 9

[M2G]

The theme of GoingNative 2013 is decidedly pragmatic - to inform and educate the global C++ developer community with the latest information about ISO C++11 and draft C++14. From libraries to compilers, you'll learn from some of the world's best C++ speakers (and rising stars) and subject matter experts (well, C++ superheroes, to be precise). This year is all about deep and practical knowledge for the practicing C++ developer. There will be three full days of excellent sessions and panels. Please join us in Redmond, Washington, September 4 - 6, 2013.

Come learn about the present and near future of modern, standard C++. You'll also learn about VC++ vNext and C++ on Microsoft's platforms. There's a lot to talk about! You'll want to be in the room for this three day C++ festival. See you there!

***This event will be LIVE STREAMED on the homepage of Channel 9 (http://channel9.msdn.com)*** We will accept questions from the virtual audience (simply type into the textbox under the multi-platform streaming media player). However, questions from attendees in the room will have priority. We do not guarantee that your questions will be answered. That said, please ask them!

The Cast

Bjarne Stroustrup designed and implemented the C++ programming language. To keep C++ a stable and up-to-date base for real-world software development, Bjarne has stuck with its ISO standards effort for 20+ years (so far).

Andrei Alexandrescu is a researcher, software engineer, and author. He wrote three best-selling books on programming (Modern C++ Design, C++ Coding Standards, and The D Programming Language) and numerous articles and papers on wide-ranging topics from programming to language design to Machine Learning to Natural Language Processing. Andrei holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Washington and a BS in Electrical Engineering from University "Politehnica" Bucharest. He works as a Research Scientist for Facebook.

Herb Sutter is a leading authority on software development. He is the best selling author of several books including Exceptional C++ and C++ Coding Standards, as well as hundreds of technical papers and articles, including the essay "The Free Lunch Is Over" which coined the term "concurrency revolution" and its recent sequel "Welcome to the Jungle" on the end of Moore's Law and the turn to mainstream heterogeneous supercomputing from the cloud to 'smartphones.' Herb has served for a decade as chair of the ISO C++ standards committee, and is a software architect at Microsoft where he has been the lead designer of C++/CLI, C++/CX, C++ AMP, and other technologies.

Scott Meyers is one of the world's foremost authorities on C++. He wrote the best- selling Effective C++ series (Effective C++, More Effective C++, and Effective STL); published and maintains the annotated training materials Overview of the New C++ (C++11/14) and Effective C++ in an Embedded Environment; is Consulting Editor for Addison Wesley's Effective Software Development Series, and, with Herb Sutter and Andrei Alexandrescu, is a principal in C++ and Beyond. He has a Ph.D in Computer Science from Brown University. He's currently working on a new book, Effective C++11/14, which he hopes to publish in early 2014.

Chandler Carruth leads the Clang team at Google, building better diagnostics, tools, and more. Previously, he worked on several pieces of Google's distributed build system. He makes guest appearances helping to maintain a few core C++ libraries across Google's codebase, and is active in the LLVM and Clang open source communities. He received his M.S. and B.S. in Computer Science from Wake Forest University, but disavows all knowledge of the contents of his Master's thesis. He is regularly found drinking Cherry Coke Zero in the daytime and pontificating over a single malt scotch in the evening.

Michael Wong is the IBM and Canadian representative to the C++ Standard and OpenMP Committee and is the co-author of a number C++0x/OpenMP features including generalized attributes, extensible literals, inheriting constructors, weakly ordered memory models, and explicit conversion operators. He is the past C++ team lead to IBM's XL C++ compiler and has been designing C++ compilers for fifteen years. His current research interest is in the area of parallel programming, C++ benchmark performance, object model, generic programming and template metaprogramming. He holds a B.Sc from University of Toronto, and a Masters in Mathematics from University of Waterloo.

Sean Parent is a principal scientist and software architect for Adobe's mobile digital imaging group. Sean has been at Adobe since 1993 when he joined as a senior engineer working on Photoshop and later managed Adobe's Software Technology Lab. In 2009 Sean spent a year at Google working on Chrome OS before returning to Adobe. From 1988 through 1993 Sean worked at Apple, where he was part of the system software team that developed the technologies allowing Apple's successful transition to PowerPC.

Stephan T. Lavavej joined the Visual C++ Libraries team in January 2007. He works with Dinkumware to maintain Microsoft's C++ Standard Library implementation. He originally joined Microsoft in July 2004, after graduating from Caltech, and worked on Outlook 2007 Search. His name is pronounced "Steh-fin Lah- wah-wade", or just "STL". His favorite data structures are the vector and the suffix tree, and his favorite algorithms are Huffman coding and the Burrows- Wheeler Transform.

Deon Brewis is a Principal Software Design Engineer on the C++ compiler frontend team. He designed and implemented the C++ language extensions for the Windows Runtime, the 'await' feature in VC++, and other frontend work

Eric Brumer is a software developer on the Visual C++ compiler team, specializing in code generation, optimization and performance of native code. For the last several years Eric has focused on auto-vectorization, auto-parallelization, and taking advantage of modern processor capabilities. Eric studied Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell University with a focus on CPU design. Outside of work, life revolves around family and friends, cooking and homebrewing, and when time affords it, Eric’s passion for technical writing gets the best of him.
