Computationally intensive work is often best solved by moving to parallel processing, to take advantage of multiple cores. For a subset of these problems we can get a huge improvement in performance by performing the computations on the graphics card, this is called General Purpose Processing on Graphics Processing Units (GPGPU). In this course we learn to identify what calculations to perform on the GPU and learn to implement GPU algorithms in C++ using Microsoft AMP (Accelerated Massive Parallelism).

Demand for data has never been higher. Keeping up with the business' needs has become increasingly difficult. Traditional ways of getting the business the data they need often has long planning cycles which make it difficult to adjust when the requirements or needs change. 

This course will bring you up to speed in the C++ world, covering aspects of both the well-established C++03 as well as the new features in C++11. 

What is Domain Driven Design (DDD) really about? How might Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) help us to build better software? Far from being esoteric concepts, they can be harnessed by everyday developers to create long-lasting, flexible solutions. 

Perl 6 is an exciting new language, boasting excellent Unicode support, a clean new pattern matching syntax that scales from regexes to full grammars, high-level concurrency features, built-in reactive programming, neat interoperability with native libraries (C), Perl 5, Python, and more. Solid and flexible OO enables rapid implementation of object models, while a whole range of functional-inspired features make data munging a joy. These together make Perl 6 a great glue language for the modern world. Compared with Perl 5, Perl 6 represents a step of revolution, not evolution. 

There is not enough structure in web development. Everyone has their own coding style, their own object system, and their own MVC framework 

In 2010 Jurgen Appelo released the Book Management 3.0 and has made success all over the world. Jurgen is ranked as one of the most influential people in leadership and agile. Jurgen himself describes itself as a "creative networker".
