Prof. Castrillon was invited to give a talk during this year’s CPS summer school “Designing Cyber-Physical Systems – From concepts to implementation” held in the beautiful Alghero Sardinia during the 23-27 of September. Prof. Castrillon talked about “Dataflow and higher level abstractions for parallel programming” in the context of CPS, recalling challenges in auto-parallelization compilers and discussing current works in dataflow programming and domain specific languages. The school director, Prof. Francesca Palumbo, and the organization team did a great job with the technical and social program of the event.  The school is highly recommended. Details of the keynote including slides and a video feed can be found at the school website.
