PDC Day 0
After some unusual flight conditions and horrible airport UI, I managed to get to Los Angeles for PDC. The first day, I spent and entire day in a session about multiprocessing. This was a very good session with a lot of good information. From it, I think I can take our existing commands that implement IThreadableCommand and use a better set of tools to ensure that the parallelism is more efficient and more reliable. IThreadableCommand is our approach to making image processing parallel.
During a break in the session, I had the chance to speak with Joe Duffy, one of thre presenters, and was happy to get a quick piece of brainshare from him. Thanks, Joe, and thanks for a copy of your book on multiprocessing.
