This talk will present a high-level overview of the hardware structure of modern computer systems, and then will use this structure to show how the laws of physics put limitations on the design and implementation of concurrent software. Venue permitting, it will...
What makes an apparently good patchset fail? Despite the fact it hasn’t been applied, did you know that working on this patchset might have actually been a great benefit for you and the kernel? A necessary step even? Sometimes we involve into an idea that looks good...
