Figure 1: A time chart of logged events for two futures resolved by two parallel workers. This is a screenshot of Slide #18 in my talk. Below are the slides for my Futureverse: Profile Parallel Code talk that I presented at the useR! 2022 conference online and hosted by the Department of Biostatistics at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
Title: Futureverse: Profile Parallel Code
Speaker: Henrik Bengtsson
Luke Zappia's summary of the talk I presented Future: A Simple, Extendable, Generic Framework for Parallel Processing in R at the European Bioconductor Meeting 2020, which took place online during the week of December 14-18, 2020.
You’ll find my slides (39 slides + Q&A slides; 35 minutes) below:
Title & Abstract HTML (Google Slides; requires online access) PDF (flat slides) Video (YouTube) I want to thank the organizers for inviting me to this Bioconductor conference.
I presented Future: Simple, Friendly Parallel Processing for R (67 minutes; 59 slides + Q&A slides) at New York Open Statistical Programming Meetup, on November 9, 2020:
HTML (incremental Google Slides; requires online access) PDF (flat slides) Video (presentation starts at 0h10m30s, Q&A starts at 1h17m40s) I like to thanks everyone who attented and everyone who asked lots of brilliant questions during the Q&A. I’d also want to express my gratitude to Amada, Jared, and Noam for the invitation and making this event possible.

I cannot imagine having to cancel the on-site Milano conference that had planned for more than a year and then start over to re-organize and create a fabulous online experience for ~1,500 participants in such short notice.
Design: Dan LaBar I presented Future: Simple Async, Parallel & Distributed Processing in R Why and What’s New? at rstudio::conf 2020 in San Francisco, USA, on January 29, 2020. Below are the slides for my talk (17 slides; ~18+2 minutes):

As promised - though a bit delayed - below are links to my slides and the video of my talk on Future: Parallel & Distributed Processing in R for Everyone that I presented last month at the eRum 2018 conference in Budapest, Hungary (May 14-16, 2018).
The conference was very well organized (thank you everyone involved) with a great lineup of several brilliant workshop sessions, talks, and poster presentations (thanks all).
Unless you count DSC 2003 in Vienna, last week’s useR conference at Stanford was my very first time at useR. It was a great event, it was awesome to meet our lovely and vibrant R community in real life, which we otherwise only get know from online interactions, and of course it was very nice to meet old friends and make new ones.
The future is promising.
At the end of the second day, I presented A Future for R (18 min talk; slides below) on how you can use the future package for asynchronous (parallel and distributed) processing using a single unified API regardless of what backend you have available, e.
