GOOGLE: LET'S TALK @ TKK In lecture hall T1 of the TKK Computer Science Building (Konemiehentie 2, Espoo) on Tuesday 27 November 2007 beginning at 16:15: Google will visit the TKK campus to talk about engineering opportunities. Join us to find out how we work, play and change the world. The event will include, among other things, the following tech talk: Hannu Helminen (Google): Google Computing Platform Google builds its datacenters on inexpensive hardware. This allows creating supercomputers of unprecedented flexibility economically. But building on commodity hardware poses extraordinary challenges from both software and hardware engineering points of view. We'll provide an inside view of how computing is done at Google scale. The duration of the event is at most one and half hours. The language is English. Everyone is welcome to participate to the event.
