Chalk Talk at Intel Developer Forum '08 SF
I'm giving a Chalk Talk at Intel Developer Forum Fall '08 (San Francisco, Moscone Center, August 19-21), titled:
Multi-threaded Development on OpenSolaris* and Linux* using Sun Studio*

The talk will focus on Sun Studio tools, including compilers that help with MT applications, especially targetted towards multi-core chips. It will focus on four aspects that are basic to Sun Studio's value proposition:

Performance
Productivity
Parallelism (particularly, MT)
Platforms (OpenSolaris and Linux)

Chalk talks are a fun way to introduce technology, show a demo and deepdive into many interesting areas of upcoming development. I'll talk about Data Race Detection (and the Thread Analyzer tool which helps in this quest), MT debugging, DTrace and profiling tools, and emerging technologies like Transactional Memory .

My session is on Tuesday, August 19th at 9:45AM. Hope you can join me there!
