Next Meeting April 10th (2nd Tuesday) Federico Lucifredi / Hardware Hacking 101: time and randomness
Abstract: Using the lowest amount of custom hardware and pouring Perl over everything as the glue binding it all, we create two minimalistic devices delivering a perfectly tuned network time source (synchronizing with a GPS satellite), and a naturally random entropy source (leveraging a Geiger tube’s measurement of natural background radiation). Location: MIT Building 51, Room 372, 2 Amherst Street, Cambridge, MA NOTE: Parking Alert. Recent changes in MIT Parking Dept web pages no longer allow un-permitted parking after-hours. So parking on-site is AT OWN RISK. And Construction Detour again too. See web for details. http://boston.pm.org/Calendar http://boston.pm.org/MIT%20Directions Boilerplate details Tech Meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at MIT building E51, Sloan School Tang Center [not the other Tang building!] nearer to Kendall Sq than Mass Ave. (directions).
