PGDay.EU 2009 - Call for lighting talks

From
Dave Page
Date:
The PGDay.EU 2009 conference in Paris will include a series of
lightning talks on Saturday the 7th November.

This is your chance for five minutes of fame and glory, presenting any
PostgreSQL-related topic you like!

Interested, but not sure what you could speak on? How about:

- A PostgreSQL tool or add-on that you've been hacking on
- The activities of your local PostgreSQL User Group
- How you use PostgreSQL at work or home
- How you manage your PostgreSQL installations
- Why you love PostgreSQL
- Your PostgreSQL pet-peeve

Please send your name, a couple of sentences about yourself and the
title and abstract for your proposed talk to papers@pgday.eu. The
closing date for submissions is Sunday 25th October. You will have
five minutes (and not a second more!) to present your talk in English.

For more information about the project, including the talk schedule
and the registration information, please see the website at:

Regards, Dave

hi dave,

here are some suggestions:

Artificial intelligence PostgreSQL:
We use PostgreSQL to run database driven neural networks as well as
classification algorithms for a leading edge application.
Our neural networks are running directly inside PostgreSQL. This shows
that PostgreSQL is not just a database but a wonderful development
environment as well.


Full-Text-Indexing:
We use PostgreSQL to run a full-text price search engine.


PostgreSQL modifications:
We are porting industrial applications from Informix to PostgreSQL.
The goal is to run entire factories using PostgreSQL.


    Many thanks,

       hans
