September Meetup: Parallel Computing in R

http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/9/6/c/a/600_274418602.jpeg Hey everyone, thanks again for the impressive turnout at last month's meeting. Thanks to the Ansir Innovation Center (http://aicenterca.com/) as well for lending us their great space.

We will be hosting our next meeting at the San Diego Supercomputer Center. Glenn Lockwood, a team member of the SDSC, will be presenting on parallelization libraries such as parallel and snow followed by an overview of Hadoop implementations in R. For more information on this topic checkout the CRAN Task View: High-Performance and Parallel Computing with R (http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/HighPerformanceComputing.html).

The presentation will start at 6:30pm and last approximately one hour. Information on parking/getting there:

I'll bring some taco platters to hold you guys over until dinner.

I'm looking forward to seeing you all there,

P.S.

My company is looking for a data science intern. If anyone knows of a compsci or stats student (w/ some dev experience) that is comfortable with a client facing role. Please forward me their info.
