Software Defined Networking (SDN) replaces dedicated network hardware with standards based software running on servers that implements the control plane of switches and routers. Dr. Turbyfill, Director of Engineering at The Applied Research Center for Computer Networks (ARCCN), a non-profit organization, located in the Skolkovo Innovation Center, Russiaâs answer to Silicon Valley, will discuss ARCCNâs SDN work and ARCCNâs relationship with Skolkovo.
The Skolkovo Innovation Centre goal is âto concentrate international intellectual capital, thereby stimulating the development of break-through projects and technologies.â
ARCCN is focused on creating enabling technologies for the next generation of computer technology. Its vision is to develop a world class Russian center specializing in SDN âto commoditize network hardware and provide a standard-based application development platform taking much of the features and functionality that exist inside custom proprietary software and driving it into an open SDN space.â OpenFlow is an example of SDN. "OpenFlow offers a standard-based Application Programming Interface or API that links an Ethernet switch and a controller. This offers a model in which layer 2 Ethernet switches are low-cost merchant silicon based devices where flows are directed by a centralized controller(s). ARCCN is building collaborative relationships with international academic, research and commercial organizations to achieve its goals.
A light dinner of pizza and beverage will be supplied.

Glass Plate GAme
Roll back

The Glass Plate Game, inspired by Hermann Hesse's Glass Bead Game, is essentially a conversation in the trappings of a board game. The idea is to spark creative and interesting dialog as the players explore connections between ideas against a dynamic mosaic map. There are no winners or losers. There is no order of play. Conversation continues throughout, and anyone can make a move at any time. The end result is an artifact of the conversation. The "game board" makes it easy to follow the twists and turns of the conversation.
This time the game will be played with a theme: Arts.

FounderDating November Applications due

Applications due for FounderDating's Portland chapter. This is the second round of applications, so if you were rejected last time, feel free to re-apply.
FounderDating (FD) is an invite-only, online network for entrepreneurs to connect with cofounders. What makes them different?
High Quality - members are carefully screened for quality and readiness (no recruiters, etc.) Applications and members’ identities are confidential, but a few of the folks who are part of the network are former founders or early employees from: stackmob, snapfish, Zynga, Loggly and Gilt just to name a few.
Balanced - 50% engineering & 50% non-engineering
Reach-- FD’s online network allows you to connect with people in your city and beyond to share ideas and begin building something you’re passionate about.
No Idea Necessary - FD is about the people, so you don’t need to have an idea, just be ready to work on a serious side project

Hacking Social Impact
Roll back
| description |
Hacking Social Impact is an unconference to encourage access to the broader stream of activity. Itâs an un/conference with curated guests, organizations, and learning activities â the best aspects of a conference, but with an engaging dose of hands-on learning and networking.
Register at https://www.hackingsocialimpact.eventbright.com.
When: Monday, November 12th, 5:30-8 pm and November 13th,
8 am â 5:30 pm
Where: Portland, OR: Monday, November 12th at Ecotrust;
Tuesday, November 13th venue TBA
Registration: $25 unconference only;
$50 unconference + workshop (student/entrepreneur rate),
$75 unconference + workshop (general registration),
$100 Registration at the door
Why: The field of social entrepreneurship, impact investment, and social venture capital is emergent, quickly changing, and global. Ultimately, itâs about people (who work as businesses, government, NGOs, foundations, or citizens) solving social problems in new and measurably better ways: collaboratively, using proven innovation methodologies, while exploring new financing and organizational models.
Think: Attend typical unconference-style learning sessions or sit in on office hours with key organizations & individuals. Do: Participate in hands-on, experiential activities during the event to develop new skills in finance, fundraising, organizational development, entrepreneurship, getting involved, philanthropy, crowdfunding, and more.
Share: Capture video and photos, participate through live streaming or via Skype/real-time chat w/ global partners, connect through social media. |

Bring your questions. Bring your Problems. Join us for Lean Coffee facilitated by Dianna Larsen.
Lean Coffee started in Seattle in 2009 when Jim Benson and Jeremy Lightsmith wanted to combine lean and Knowledge work. Now, Seattle Lean Coffee happens every week, and is very popular.
Lean Coffee is a structured, but agenda-less meeting. Participants gather, build an agenda, and begin talking. Conversations are directed and productive because the agenda for the meeting was democratically generated.
(http://leancoffee.org/)
Details and Pizza:
This event is free and is at Puppet Labs. It begins at 6:30 pm with pizza, sponsored by PNSQC (Many thanks to both Puppet Labs and PNSQC for supporting agile in Portland).
The program starts at 7:00 pm. |

November Meetup - Cluster Analysis in R
Roll back
| description |
<p><span>Michael Schilmoeller is presenting on cluster analysis in R for our November meetup! Note that due to proximity with Thanksgiving, this meetup has been scheduled for a Tuesday instead of a Wednesday.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Talk Title:</p>
<p>Cluster Analysis in R</p>
<p><span>Desc</span>ription:</p>
<p><span>We will present two applications of the Agnes cluster analysis package. The first will illustrate considerations in selecting a distance metric. The second will show a technique for evaluating the size and number of clusters appropriate for representing data. Both examples are from electric power generation and transmission modeling.</span></p>
