About Event

In trading applications, algorithms are mostly constant or linear time and dead simple. Engineers often optimize our systems based on vastly different considerations as compared to an academic standpoint. The real bottlenecks show up in places algorithm textbooks rarely talk about --- cache misses, branch mispredictions, memory allocation, lock contention, and unpredictable system calls.

Pre-requisites

Make sure the following software is installed on your system before the workshop based on your operating system:

Windows

Mingw64 GCC
WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)
espeak. Download the version that says "Compiled for Windows"

Linux

espeak. Download the version that says "compiled for Linux 32bits"

MacOS

Ensure that say is installed: Open Terminal > type say something and you should hear the word "something".
