ABSTRACT
Faculty Summit 2008 - Day 1
Computing at Scale: Challenges & Opportunities - Urs Hoelzle, Rob Pike, Ed Lazowska, & Jeannette Wing
The frontiers of computer science are being increasingly impacted by computing at very large scale: that is on very large scale computing systems (perhaps in the cloud) with possibly significant dependence on large scale data sets and/or on systems with shared use by vast populations. This panel will explore the potential opportunities and challenges in computer science research in this space.
Speakers: Urs Hoelzle, Rob Pike, Ed Lazowska, & Jeannette Wing

Sorry for being impolite. The lady needs some change of her make-up and her dressing. She looks very "oriental" (Asian style). But she speaks like a WWE player (really overly excited). What an impact!

why google techtalk become a programmer's feat rather than a science training camp

I love the word "huggable" ("on your own huggable cluster" as opposed to Amazon AWS etc.) that Jeannette Wing used in her three-minute statement. Apparently "huggable" = contrary of "virtual".
In former times we would have talked about "physical" machines. (But obviously America has become so prude that you can no longer get physical with your computers beyond hugging them :-)
Anyway, this is a politically correct term that I'll gladly adopt.
