[dundee] Speakers Flash Talks

[Rick Moynihan]

Hi Arron,

As no one's expressed a preference, I'll try and prepare one on Erlang:

* Erlang

Erlang is an open source functional programming language developed by
Ericsson for telecoms applications.  Despite hiding in obscurity for
20 years, Erlang has become a hot topic as it promises to make
developing robust applications for multi-core, and distributed systems
easy.

This talk aims to introduce people to the problems with traditional
methods for concurrent programming (threads with mutable shared state)
and provide a brief introduction to Erlang and it's use in developing
fault tollerant distributed systems.
