Joe Duffy, Huseyin Yildiz, Daan Leijen, Stephen Toub: Inside the Task Parallel Librar

[NewsBot]

Joe Duffy, Huseyin Yildiz, Daan Leijen, Stephen Toub and I gathered in a conference room in building 122 to dig into the Task Parallel Library infrastructure. You've heard about the Parallel Computing Platform that Microsoft is working a few months ago in an interview with Anders Hejlsberg and Joe Duffy. We didn't go too deep in that talk. It was an introduction to the Parallel Computing Platform.

 

Here, we take a dive down into the technical rabbit hole with Daan, Joe, Stephen and Huseyin.

 

Daan is an MSR reseacher who's work has been instrumental in bringing TPL and the Parallel Extensions for .NET to life. Of course, Joe is the guy who invented PLINQ (he*wrote the original Think Week paper on it*and Bill*was impressed!)*and is a lead developer on the Parallel Computing Platform team. Stephen is the Program Manager (and is the one driving and scheduling many of the interviews you will see covering*Parallel Computing Platform here on C9*- Thanks, Stephen!)*and Huseyin is a developer who recently joined the group and is already making a big impact.

 

Most of the time here*is spent on the whiteboard with Daan. Make some time for this conversation. There's an awful lot to learn here.

 

Enjoy!
