[Baypiggies] Fwd: [SciPy-user] call for speakers (bayPIGgies)

[jim stockford]

check out eric jones list of numpy topics.
got favorites?

> Here is a quick overview of possible topics.  I teach a 3-4 day course 
> on this stuff quite a bit, so there are a number of 1 hour sections I 
> can pull out. :-)
>
>    Introduction to Numpy
>    Tour of SciPy algorithms (lin alg, signal processing, optimization, 
> etc.)
>    Interactive 2D visualization with Chaco.
>    3D visualization with Mayavi/TVTK.
>    Algorithm prototyping with Weave.
>    Wrapping C/C++/Fortan Numeric algorithms (swig, f2py, weave, pyrex) 
> and what to watch out for when doing it.
>
> On related topics but less strictly numeric oriented (and more 
> Enthought tools)
>
>    User interfaces with Traits
>    Plug-in based scientific applications with Envisage
>
> Also, I can give more "survey" related talks that skims over the top 
> of a set of these (usually numpy, scipy, 2d/3D viz) as well as demoing 
> some scientific apps written in Python.  My hunch is this survey is 
> most useful to people, but diving deep into one might also be more 
> interesting depending on the crowd.
