# Code of Conduct
We want a productive happy community that can welcome new ideas, improve every
process every year, and foster collaboration between individuals with differing
needs, interests and skills.
We gain strength from diversity, and actively seek participation from those who
enhance it. This code of conduct exists to ensure that diverse groups
collaborate to mutual advantage and enjoyment. We will challenge prejudice that
could jeopardise the participation of any person in the community.
The Code of Conduct governs how we behave in public or in private whenever the
Linux community will be judged by our actions. We expect it to be honoured by
everyone who represents the community officially or informally, claims
affiliation or participates directly. It applies to activities online or
offline.
We invite anybody to participate. Our community is open.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about the GTALUG Code of
Conduct please contact the GTALUG Board @ <board(a)gtalug.org>.

# Concurrency with Warren McPherson
High-performance applications use graphics processors to do hundreds of calculations in parallel yet people often misunderstand some of the foundational problems. We review a couple of those problems tracing the career of Turing Award winner Leslie Lamport. Then we look at the impact of these ideas on Machine Learning and Blockchain technologies.

# Lightning Talks with George Vari Engineering and Computing Centre, Room 203
_Lighting Talks_ is GTALUG's version of an un-conference, a loosely structured short talks emphasizing the informal exchange of information and ideas between participants, rather than following a conventionally structured GTALUG meetings. If you already have a topic in mind please send an email <a href="mailto:speakers@gtalug.org">speakers(a)gtalug.org</a> to be added to the list of scheduled talks. If you would like to give a talk during the meeting, all you have to do is write your name on a post-it and stick it on the whiteboard in the front of the room. When your talk gets selected, you will have five to present your idea, then five minutes of audience questions. ### Five Minute Talks
