update Calagator::Event 1250469976 Before You Code - Planning Before An Agile Project? Roll back

description Just because your project is agile doesn't mean you shouldn't plan. After all, isn't failing quickly on paper faster than in production? In this talk, we will discuss what elements of your project can and should be defined up front. We will discuss estimates, wire framing, sequence diagrams and you will leave with tangible practices and examples -this isn't another theory talk designed to espouse project management dogma. This is "real" world software development. Just because your project is agile doesn't mean you shouldn't plan. After all, isn't failing quickly on paper faster than in production?

create Calagator::Event 1250469962 Galois Tech talk: Toward Extracting Monadic Programs from Proofs Roll back

description nil abstract: The Curry-Howard Isomorphism motivates the well known proofs-as-programs interpretation. Under that interpretation, sufficiently different proofs yield different programs. This work is a step toward extracting monadic programs from proofs. In working with the list monad as a motivating example, we discovered that the standard type bind (M a -> (a -> M b) -> M b) does not contain enough information to allow many proofs to go through. For lists, an implicit assumption on the function of type ( a -> M b) is that the input of type a is an element of the list of type M b. We developed an new typeclass of epsilon-monads to be able to strengthen the function type. Epsilon-monads are monads that support a membership predicate. Epsilon-monads enabled the development of a bind-induction proof rule which allows the extraction of monadic programs using the bind operator. Also, epsilon monads allow for extensional specifications of monadic programs. We used the Coq theorem prover to formalize the definitions and to prove many properties of the formalization. This is joint work with Hadi Shafe’i. bio: James Caldwell is Professor and Head of the Computer Science Department at the University of Wyoming. He earned his PhD from Cornell in the Nuprl group advised by Robert Constable. Before moving to the University of Wyoming in 1998, he was a researcher in the formal methods group at the NASA Langley Research center. He moved to NASA from the Electric Corporate R&D center in Schenectady, NY where he was first exposed to formal verification. He has MS and BS degrees in computer science from SUNY Albany. Before coming to computer science he studied painting and sculpture at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

create Calagator::Event 1250469960 Refactoring for Asynchronous Execution on Mobile Roll back

description nil To improve responsiveness, developers often use asynchronous programming. In the post-PC era, asynchronous programming is even more in demand because mobile and wearable devices have limited resources and access the network excessively. One current development task is refactoring long-running, blocking synchronous code (for example, accessing the Web, a cloud, a database, or a file system) into nonblocking asynchronous code. This talk describes the refactorings that improve responsiveness, along with the obstacles of using asynchrony. It also presents the challenges of retrofitting asynchrony and presents program analyses and transformations and a growing, practical toolset and resources for retrofitting asynchrony. Speaker Danny Dig- Assistant Professor in the School of EECS at Oregon State University and an Adjunct Professor at University of Illinois He published over 50 journal and conference papers on refactoring, of which five won awards at top Software Engineering conferences. According to Google Scholar, his publications have been cited 2200+ times. His PhD dissertation on API refactoring won the David Kuck Outstanding PhD dissertation award at U. of Illinois, the First Prize at the interdisciplinary ACM Student Research Competition Grand Finals, and the First Prize at the ACM SIGPLAN SRC. He wrote the world’s first open-source refactoring engine for Java (which was downloaded over 17,000 times in 2001). Some of his other refactoring tools are shipping with the official release of Eclipse, NetBeans, or VisualStudio IDE and are used by millions of Java and C# developers. He regularly teaches on the topic of refactoring at summer schools, conference tutorials, and technical courses in industry. More info about his research and teaching is available on his homepage.

create Calagator::Event 1250469956 Rust Hack Session Roll back

description nil This is intended as a general-purpose hack session where folks with a little more experience writing/using Rust or who have an open source project or two that could use new contributors are encouraged to invite newcomers to hack-a-long for a few hours. There will be no specific topic or presentation, just a bunch of nerds nerding out on a (presumably) rainy Saturday afternoon. Just to be clear, this is intended for all levels of programming/rust experience: * Folks with more experience will benefit by possibly gaining new contributors for their projects. * Folks with little/no experience will benefit from direct guidance working on a specific feature/bug in an existing project. Recommendations for those with projects in mind: Since we are asking that some of you come prepared with a project or two in mind that could benefit from additional contributors, the following will help: * Post a comment on this [meetup.com] event with a link to the open source repository that you would like to invite people to work on. * Create a list of issues that your project(s) could use help on. If you use Github as a project management tool, a github issue for each bug/feature/improvement you have in mind would be immensely helpful as a way to establish continuity between you and your new contributors after this meetup. * Keep in mind the varying levels of skill/experience other folks might have and be prepared to offer some relatively low-hanging fruit in addition to more difficult tasks. Also, don't let your lack of experience with programming/rust or lack of ownership over a particular project prevent you from proposing a project to work on...I personally have very little Rust experience and no projects of my own but know of a couple projects that could benefit from new contributors!
