data parallelism ... can you apply dataflow principles here?
Yes, I have to keep reloading to start from the beginning
as it gets stuck

It's about partitioning data, not sure it's related to dataflow principles.

You're talking about multicore processors .. but wondering about 
multicpu as well
Linda or tuple-space

I made the focus on multicores because they are much more common 
than multiple processors architectures.
Linda & tuple-space are ways to solve the shared data synchronization 
problem, but they seem too costly for local usage (but should work 
well on a LAN I guess).

I tried accessing the slides from my ec2 instance .. but I guess 
I don't have flash enabled for security reasons!
I just see a "loading .." where the slides are

Doc - is Red kind of continutaiton of C#, or a different aproach?

Wait a few seconds, I'll change the way it is showed (using images), 
should work better.
R#? Not at all. A new approach, using compilation instead of interpretation.
Graham: does this version work better for you? http://portal.sliderocket.com/AOLUS/red-rebor2011

No, it's just as slow

I'm on the edge of the world !

I just see the ... next to the right arrow flashing away

Just click it to see the image appear.

no ... I think that means it's working.  Image is a star flashing 
away
star burst
anyway it seems to be working again.
got to slide 14 .. do the X mean you've completed those tasks?

Yes, but it's 90% only for the second item.
The main missing feature is string! type read/write support.

slides.

you're welcome
What developer channel will you use?
A web based BBS?

I'm thinking about using Google Groups...I'll do a review of possible 
options in the next days to decide.

I remember you used altme before and of course all that discussion 
is now gone ...
spam can be a problem on google groups .. not sure if that is still 
the case
I'm surprised you don't mention Cheyenne in your credits :)

There is mentioned built-in webserver.

Good catch! I did the introductory slide for the Cheyenne presentation 
first, so it wasn't necessary. Then I forgot to add it when I copy/past-ed 
the slide in Red presentation. :-)
The built-in webserver will be simplified, lightweight version of 
Cheyenne written in Red.

Pekr, R3 has been in development for .. is it 5 years now?
Evolution will decide the place for each language

I wonder as well if this means that Carl will stop completely or 
want to finish R3 asap.

Graham - it was sad irony on my part :-) I remember how I translated 
Carl's interview somewhere in 1996, when he left Viscorp, and was 
asked by Gateway, to join in and to lead Amiga. He has choosed REBOL 
instead, stating, that he wants to avoid Amiga mistakes of the past. 
Now he is effectively killing REBOL by no-action just the same way 
....
