Event Description

With the recent trend towards multi-core processors there is a new need to write applications to take advantage of the hardware. There are multiple ways to do this in .NET and in 4.0 it has gotten even easier.
In this talk we will cover the basics of parallel programming, common problems with multi-threaded applications, the Parallel Extensions to the .NET framework (included in .NET 4.0) including the Task Parallel Library, and PLINQ and the coordination data structures.
