There will be a lecture on Dart this coming Wednesday at
Stanford. Here is the announcement:
Stanford EE Computer Systems Colloquium
4:15PM, Wednesday, Nov 2, 2011
Skilling Auditorium, Stanford Campus
http://ee380.stanford.edu[1]
Topic: A Walk on the Dart Side: A Quick Tour of Dart
Speaker: Gilad Bracha
Google USA
About the talk:
Dart is a pure object-oriented, dynamically typed language with
actor based concurrency. We'll take a quick tour of the Dart
programming language, focusing on its more unusual features, such
as optional typing and built-in factory support.
Slides:
There is no downloadable version of the slides for this talk
available at this time.
About the speaker:
Gilad Bracha is the creator of the Newspeak programming language
and a software engineer at Google. Previously, he was a VP at SAP
Labs, a Distinguished Engineer at Cadence, and a Computational
Theologist and Distinguished Engineer at Sun. He is co-author of
the Java Language Specification, and a researcher in the area of
object-oriented programming languages. Prior to joining Sun, he
worked on Strongtalk, the Animorphic Smalltalk System. He
received his B.Sc in Mathematics and Computer Science from Ben
Gurion University in Israel and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from
the University of Utah.
See the Colloquium website, ee380.stanford.edu, for scheduled
speakers, FAQ, and additional information. Stanford and SCPD students
can enroll in EE380 for one unit of credit. Anyone is welcome
