Understanding Computation: The C# Memory Model

Every programmer needs to understand how memory models work in order to write more intuitive code. My target audience for this talk is anyone who wants to acquire an understanding of the Memory Model in C#. This means beginners, mid-level or experts will find this talk quite useful. However, while preparing this presentation, I have in mind the beginner programmer (a category I classify myself under).
I will discuss the topic under the following sub-topics :

1. Understanding programming
2. Understanding Computers from history
3. Complexity theory
4. Compiler
5. Standard ECMA-334 C# Language Specification
6. Thread Communication Patterns
7. Multithreading
8. how the memory model is actually implemented on different architectures

At the end of this talk, the listeners can expect a general overview of how the memory model works in C# as well as how they apply to individual systems.
