This is an updated version of
an
earlier post in March.
A number of talks about
Rcpp are scheduled
over the next couple of months:
- On Wednesday May 14 I will be speaking at the Chicago R Users Group
meeting charmingly titled Warm Up for R/Finance, along with
fellow R/Finance organizer Josh
Ulrich, fellow R/Finance regular Kent Hosxey as well as Cliff
Clive. I will talk about Redis and my rather recent nascent
RcppRedis package.
- Our sixth international conference R/Finance
will take place May 16 and 17, 2014, at UIC in Chicago. See the current
agenda for details of the program---which
once again will be preceded by one-hour workshops. And as in the past, I will offer a one-hour
gentle introduction to Rcpp. This workshop requires
registration and a fee, and registraion will close shortly.
I will also present a short lightning talk about the
RcppRedis package
as part of the conference proper.
- A few days later, on May 20, 2014, I will present a one-hour webinar which is part of a series
organized by Ray DiGiacomo and the Orange County R Users Group.
See this page for details and registration
information; the talk itself will be free of charge.
- Later in the month, on May 30, 2014, I will give a talk / guest lecture about
Rcpp and
RcppArmadillo and
over in Economics at the University of Chicago. I reckon that this event is not open to anybody
not part of U of C.
- Another three-hour tutorial is scheduled for the tutorial day preceding
useR! 2014 at UCLA in early July. This tutorial will
also require registration as part of the annual useR! conference.
I am very honoured to have been asked to give one of the
invited keynotes at
useR! 2014. The talk may (or may not) cover at least some aspects
of Rcpp.
As my talk proposal about the recent
RcppZiggurat
package for faster Normal RNGs was accepted, I will also give a regular
conference talk.
So the month of June remains pretty open. If someone wants me to talk somewhere else, preferably on a
Saturday, feel free to get in touch.
