Java Seminar: Concurrency and Performance with Kirk Pepperdine

Sun Microsystems, Inc. is bringing renowned Java Champion Kirk Pepperdine from Europe to deliver his Java Performance Tuning Course in North America. While he is in Atlanta we will be hosting a free evening seminar and you are invited! Please register!

Abstract: The move from single to multi-core is a silent revolution. It has happened without Java developers taking much notice. Part of this is because Java developers have been writing multi-threaded applications for a long time. Even so, multi-core is a game changing development and with a 1000 core CPUs on the event horizon, it's one that we must adapt to if we are to remain competitive. In this talk we will explore some of the developments that are taking place in the JVM, and in the JDK to help us. We will also look at techniques we can use to improve the performance of our applications running on machines with 10s or even 100s of CPUs.

Kirk Pepperdine, a Sun Java Champion since September 2005, is a primary contributor and consultant to javaperformancetuning.com, which is widely regarded as the premier site for information about Java Performance Tuning. Kirk is also the co-author of Ant Developer's Handbook.
