The Boulder Ruby Group will be meeting on February 20th at 6:30pm for
our monthly meeting. Tony Arcieri will be presenting on Revactor, his
new Ruby library of the Actor model implementation in Ruby 1.9. The
Actor model is an approach to programming using concurrent components
which communicate using message passing. It's seen success in
languages like Erlang and Scala, and now it can be used with Ruby.
The talk will cover the basics of using Revactor to build concurrent
programs, and also cover the future of Actors in Ruby, particularly
how they can be used with Rubinius to let your programs scale
seamlessly across multi-core CPUs.
We still have not settled on a second talk yet so if you feel inclined
to present, let us know. Continue to check the website for more
details or information on the group.
Cheers,
Marty Haught
