Keynote: Codemotion Rome - March 28th: Tanenbaum. Henney. Ballard.
summary
Three short keynotes show concrete claims and demos: Bluemix APIs and Watson for rapid app composition, a Bluemix-built Lucas Oil raceboat system streaming RPM, oil pressure, driver heart rate and breath to fans and commentators; an argument for smallness with examples (10,000-line Unix, Ward Cunningham’s 200-line Wiki, FizzBuzz Enterprise Edition) and a cautionary tale of dead code that cost $460M at Knight Capital; bold hardware forecasts like 10^19 CPU cost-performance gain, DNA storage at 600 TB/mm3 and Google’s Project Loon balloon network.
