Bio

Rob Pike is a Principal Engineer at Google. Recently he has been helping develop the Go language. Before that Rob was at the CS Research Center at Bell Labs where he worked on computer graphics, languages, concurrent programming, etc and was the architect of the Plan 9 and Inferno OSes and is the co-author with Brian Kernighan of The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming.

About the conference

The target audience for GOTO conferences are software developers, IT architects and project managers. GOTO Aarhus is an annual event in Denmark. The idea for GOTO (formerly known as JAOO) came about as the management at Trifork was dissatisfied with the conferences that existed and wanted to create a forum that would give the development staff inspiration, energy and desire to learn coupled with the chance to network with the IT community.
