Python is used a lot for +data processing, driving simulations and presenting, however the main +part of scientific processing is usually done with Fortran, C or C++. +Recent advancements in numeric tools available for Python make it feasible +to develop a prototype in Python and often even leave your entire model +in Python. I will give a brief overview on available tools, profilers and +literature how you can achieve that. This talk will briefly cover CPython, +PyPy, NumPy, Cython, Numba, Numexpr and other available performance-related +packages. + +I am a core developer of the PyPy project as well as an implementor of +the numpy package for PyPy. I have extensive knowledge in profiling +python software including numeric packages. Furthermore I've implemented +various tools that simplify profiling. + +The preferred talk length is one hour. + _______________________________________________ pypy-commit mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-commit
