UCC talks - tentative

Venue/Time to be decided - either Friday evening @ Cameron Hall Loft, or Friday 1pm in a seminar room on campus.

• 30-April-2010: [TPG] - emulators
• 07-May-2010: Andrew Williams and Dave Emrich (DAV) - Murchison Widefield Array being built at the site of the proposed Square Kilometre Array
• 14-May-2010: [AHC] - interfacing old hardware to new microcontrollers
• [DJA] - UCC programming competition discussion/overview
  • In Semester 2, UCC is (hopefully!) running a programming competition catering for everyone from beginners to experts. This talk will cover the rules, how to enter, and what to expect, as well as the odd hint or two about how not to fail completely.
  • I could also possibly give a follow-up "how [not] to run a programming competition" technical talk - both about the technical side and the logistical side of how things work/worked/didn't work.
• Zanchey - multi-user system security
• Zanchey - how to give a talk/presentation
• [AHC] - can do a talk or two on theoretical/practical networking basics if people are at all interested
• [AHC] - writing clean, well structured C, and why you don't necessarily need an OO language
• [AHC]
