HiMSS Oregon - Lunch and Learn "BYOD/Mobility - Best Practices within Health Delivery Systems"
Roll back
| description |
nil |

With the explosive growth of Smart Phones, Tablets and other mobile devices, Healthcare Delivery Systems (HDS) have to offer accessibility to both patients and practitioners. Mobility and support of a “Bring Your Own Device” (BYOD) environment have become increasingly necessary as we move into the digital industrial economy. Gartner predicts that Digital incompetence will cause a quarter (25 percent) of businesses to lose their market position by 2017. In the hyper-competitive HDS landscape, Hospitals have to offer more flexibility for access to both their external and internal customers to remain relevant and avoid losing market share.
This interactive panel discussion will focus on the challenges that Healthcare Delivery Systems face with these changes. This will include topics ranging from security issues, demands on the network, patient privacy, potential breach of data, and increased financial risk. The panel will discuss best practices within the clinical environment and the infrastructure required to serve the needs of the users, as well as protect the patient information.

RolodexPDX Turns One: Celebrate Entrepreneurial Networking

RolodexPDX’s next event will feature speakers Shashi Jain, Jeff Martens and Special Guest Speaker Marco Salazar de Leon.
Shashi and Jeff, with their years of experience with entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial ventures, will share inside stories, advice about cautionary tales aimed at empowering, educating and inspiring attendees.
Marco, who is flying all the way up from San Diego to celebrate with us, is an expert in community management and online engagement. He will share tips, key concepts and implementable take-aways about leveraging your existing network and how to build an essential team and tribe around you and your projects.
Plus, it’s a birthday celebration… so there will be cake!
The overall formula is simple: Three short and engaging talks giving by speakers who share their wisdom with the crowd of entrepreneurs, makers, techies, business folks, investors, coaches, and go-getters. After that, the group splits into smaller circles for a quick master mind session geared at authentic connection. Then the crowd rejoins for munching on food and great networking that is actually effective and fun. |

pdxbyte users group first meeting (C/C++/Assembly)
Roll back
| description |
A Portland Oregon users group primarily for languages that compile to machine native format such as C, C++, and Assembly.
5pm
Doors open, unstructured time.
6pm
The MOS 6502 might be the most historically significant processor for one reason: It fueled the PC revolution. You have probably used a device with a 6502, and maybe even programmed one, but do you know the historical context for it and what made it successful? This talk briefly covers the following aspects of the 6502: the events that lead to its creation, the elegance of the design, and the lessons we can learn from its success.
Speaker Bio:
Jason Dagit is a research engineer at Galois. He received a M.S. in Computer Science from Oregon State University in 2009. He has been active in the Haskell community since 2005 and he is currently a member of the Haskell.org committee. His areas of interest include functional programming, computer graphics, and most recently hardware design. He enjoys working in the space between pure research and industrial practice.
7pm
Popcount as an Example Of Microbenchmarking in C
Quickly determining the number of 1 bits in a binary machine
word, the so-called "popcount", has always been an
interesting problem for developers. Popcount is useful in
applications ranging from cryptography to games, so it is
worth trying to optimize. In this talk, I will report on a
number of different popcount algorithms and their C
implementation performance, in the context of a
"microbenchmarking" framework custom-built in C for this
purpose. I will also explore the pitfalls of C in
microbenchmarking and the issues, problems and relevance of
microbenchmarking in general.
Speaker Bio:
Bart Massey got his B.A. in Physics from Reed in 1987,
having learned C while he was there. After a couple of years
writing C code at Tektronix, Inc. Bart attended University
of Oregon, where he received his MSCS in 1992 and his
Ph.D. in 1999. For the past 14 years, he has been a Computer
Science Professor at Portland State University. He still
writes more C than he cares to admit. |

8pm
Head to an elevator. People might go someplace to continue chatting.
ARRIVING BY BIKE?
Cyclists are welcome to park their bikes in the New Relic office. Bikes are not allowed in the building lobby, however, and must use the freight elevator. To get your bike up to the 28th floor, enter the building's parking lot by going down the ramp at 5th and Pine. Go past the booth -- no need to pick up a ticket -- and turn right. Go straight until you almost run into the elevator lobby, then go right again. On the back side of the elevator block you'll see a beat up pair of double doors marked "freight elevator." You can get up by buzzing in with the intercom, and saying you're here for New Relic. Ride on up to the 28th floor, you'll easily find the bike parking.
A Huge thanks to New Relic for providing the venue and food.
Thanks to O'Reilly for sending books. |

Hack The People PDX
Roll back

We are a group of makers, hackers, coders, programmers, and technologists that want to contribute to the tech community by providing a place to learn from others.
**All are welcome, regardless of skill level**
Our meetups are intimate events designed to help create relationships between junior and senior people in various tech fields. Hack The People is looking for both mentees and mentors to attend our events. The events will focus around lightning talks about your pet projects.
Lightning talks, you ask?
Yes, each participant gets about 2 minutes to talk about anything they're working on, problems they've come across, or even just seedling ideas in their head, with an additional 4 minutes of time for people in the group to offer assistance in the form of new insights, perspectives, solutions, or anything else they can offer(please note that we don't allow soliciting/buy-my-app type of talks). It's like having a whole group of mentors to listen to what you have to say with an aim to help.
After the lightning talks round, we will head across the way to Bailey's to have a drink and chat a little less formally.
Please be punctual as we start on time and move through each portion with a minimum of dilly-dallying.
Here is what you can expect at this meetup:
Refreshments/Pizza
Keynote speaker - Adam DuVander
Lightning Talks
Drinks/Networking @ Bailey's
This event has a limited number of seats, so don't miss out and make sure to reserve your spot!

Civic Data Design Challenge
A project with Hack Oregon and PNCA
In our Civic Data Visualization Workshop, Hack Oregon and PNCA students have been working on a project to redesign the way Oregonians understand and interact with campaign funding in our state.
Join us for a day of creative co-working as we invite the community to use our API to tackle other creative challenges with data surrounding this election year.
We'll also show a sneak peak of our beta product before the official launch in May.
Don't worry if you're not technical-- every person has a valuable perspective and we'll have mentors from the politcal, tech, and design community to help bring ideas to life.
Register your own team, bring your own project pitch, or join others at the event.
Want to know more about our project and design workshop?

PMI Portland Agile Round Table
Roll back
| description |
The PMI Portland Agile Round Tables are held on the second Wednesday of every month during the noon hour.
The round table provides project managers, scrum masters and others engaged in agile projects an opportunity to discuss topics of interest, issues they're facing and to join in an evolving community to promote effective use of agile methods.
Bring your lunch, ideas and challenges to the table.
(Note: PMP's & PMI-ACPs can claim 1 PDU for attendance) |

Our topic this month is "Distributed Teams." One of the principles behind the Agile Manifesto is "The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation." And, we know that distributed teams, whether around the world or across a large corporate campus, are a fact of organizational life.
What have you seen or experimented with that has worked well? What's your thorniest remote worker problem? Have you been able to move to co-located teams? What persuaded the organization to do that? Has it helped?
This month we're moving to a larger space where we can move around, work in small groups, and get those sticky notes up on the wall!
