Functional Approaches To Parallelism and Concurrency
Don Syme on functional languages features, showing why and when they are useful for parallel programming: simplicity, composability, immutability, lightweight reaction, translations, data parallelism.

Modeling Concurrency with Actors in Java - Lessons Learned from Erjang
Kresten Krab Thorup discusses functional and interactive concurrency, the message-based paradigm vs. OOP, a new way of doing programming based on concurrency, state encapsulation, and cheap processes.

Test-Driven Development of Asynchronous Systems
Nat Pryce exemplifies how he dealt with flickering, false positives, slow, and messy tests appearing in asynchronous testing when trying to perform end-to-end testing.

Death by Accidental Complexity
Ulf Wiger shows how concurrency can lead to accidental complexity if it is badly implemented in code, becoming a project’s point of failure. Wiger also advises on how concurrency should be addressed.

Multicore Programming in Haskell
Simon Marlow explains through code samples what Haskell has to offer for concurrent programming through concurrent data structures and thread-based concurrency, and Haskell’s tools for parallelism.

Embracing Concurrency At Scale
Justin Sheehy explains the principles behind concurrent distributed systems: no global state, no ACID but rather BASE, no RPC but protocols over APIs, prepare for failure, degradation, measurement.

Are We There Yet?
Rich Hickey advocates the reexamination of basic principles used today like state, identity, value, time, to create new constructs to deal with the massive parallelism and concurrency of the future.

Domain Specific Languages in Erlang
This presentation looks at several features of Erlang that make it particularly useful as a platform for creating DSL's. Those features include: message passing and dynamic code loading.

Multicore Programming in Erlang
Ulf Wiger shows typical Erlang programs, patterns that scale well on multicore and patterns that don't, profiling and debugging parallel applications and ensuring correct behaviour with QuickCheck.

Erlang Concurrency, What’s The Fuss?
Erlang is built on 3 components: language, OTP, and VM. Francesco Cesarini explains the role played by each component in order to ensure Erlang’s highly successful concurrency model.
