Keynote talks

Pieter Hintjens is a writer, programmer and thinker who has spent decades building large software systems and on-line communities, which he describes as "Living Systems". He is an expert in distributed computing, having written over 30 protocols and distributed software systems. He founded the ZeroMQ free software project in 2007, and in 2013 launched the edgenet project to build a fully secure, anonymous peer-to-peer Internet. He is the author of "ZeroMQ - Messaging for Many Applications" (O'Reilly), "Code Connected", and "Culture and Empire: Digital Revolution".

Randy Leveque received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from Stanford in 1982 and has been on the faculty at the University of Washington since 1985. He is a lead developer of the Clawpack and GeoClaw software packages, and the author of three books on numerical methods for differential equations. Current research interests are focused on algorithm and software development, reproducible research, and applications of hyperbolic solvers in geophysics, particularly for tsunami modeling. He is a Fellow of SIAM and the American Mathematical Society.
