=> Parallel computing in frontend architecture!
A user is working with your application when suddenly, the UI freezes and probably, one of the CPU cores is burning! Sounds like a scary movie? This is your application that cannot leverage modern APIs to lift heavy computation to a different thread where consequently the user suffers the pain. Even though JavaScript is a single-threaded programming language, modern features like Web Workers, WebAssembly, Worklets, and Service Worker allow us to leverage multithreading computing to run tasks parallelly which at the end, makes the user feel like in a rainbow paradise! In this session, I am going to demonstrate my practical (seriously no theory!) experience running jobs in parallel for a JavaScript application that will provide a pleasant user experience and exciting development.

=> Infraestructure for Machine Learning
TensorFlow 2.0 is the new version of the end-to-end open source platform for Machine Learning, where researchers can push the state-of-the-art in ML and developers can build and deploy ML and AI powered intermediate applications. But the ML code, that is at the heart of an ML system in production, usually accounts for a few percents of the entire codebase. In this talk, Natalie will share from her experience the infrastructure side of things, and will discuss considerations in preparing the infrastructure for an ML training, real time and offline, and present a walkthrough using a production example.
