I went to Microsoft’s Mountain View office last week, where I did an interview with William Leong, Microsoft ISV Evangelist. We talked about Digipede’s market, products, and the need for grid computing in businesses of all sizes. We even talked about IronPython, and how a last-minute addition to a recent version of our software has […]

November 17th, 2007 · 2 Comments
I am back home from SC ’07, my fifth Supercomputing conference. I saw some really impressive new technology from market leaders old and new. I heard remarkable claims and forecasts from analysts, pundits, and marketing flacks alike. I learned a lot, and contributed what I could. Yet at this conference, full of the so-called thought […]

Digipede at SIFMA — Wrap-up
June 23rd, 2007 · 3 Comments
After a little extra travel drama (sitting the standard three hours on the runway at JFK), I’m back in Oakland. SIFMA was interesting, productive, and exhausting, as usual. Thanks to our friends at HP, our decision not to have our own booth at SIFMA worked out great. We camped in the front corner of their […]
