Mastering Dyalog APL
Dyalog has published Bernard Legrand’s compendious Mastering Dyalog APL, probably the best modern introduction to APL available. Buy all 796 pages of it from Amazon, or download it free of charge from its companion site.

Dyalog announces 2010 conference
This year, Dyalog is holding it's annual User Conference as part of the global APL2010 conference organised by APL-Club Germany. This provides us with an opportunity to meet with users of other APL systems, and other "array languages" like J and K. With luck, it will be the largest gathering of array language users for some time!
You can contribute by submitting refereed papers and other contributions in response to the APL2010 Call for papers (see http://www.apl2010.de for more details). The first hard deadline for submissions is on May 15th, where you need to provide a one page abstract.
Dyalog intends to submit 5 or 6 papers on recent R&D work to the main conference in this fashion. We expect to be talking about recent and upcoming features of Dyalog products, such as:
- Designing a new APL System for the Microsoft.Net platform (APL#)
- Support for 128-bit Decimal Floating Point Data
- Abolishing "FILE DAMAGED" using Component File Journaling
- Parallel Processing using PEACH and PRANK
- Cross-Platform APL Keyboard support
- Support for Regular Expressions in Dyalog APL
We will also have a number of things to demonstrate and talk about that won't be ready to write about in the context of the refereed part of the conference. We'll cover these in our own streams which will run in parallel (but co-ordinated) with the main APL2010 streams. We also invite you to contribute to these streams - please write to conference@dyalog.com if you would like to present something at the conference but prefer to do it "as part of the Dyalog Conference".
As usual, we are very keen to hear from our users regarding problems solved (or still unresolved), using Dyalog APL. In particular, we are interested in hearing from users who can share experiences with features recently added to Dyalog APL, such as:
- Unicode and 64-bit Migrations
- Object Orientated Programming
- Web Servers, Web Services, Encryption and Secure Communications
- Source Code Management
- Using the Microsoft.Net Framework
If you have recent work that you are willing to share, please let us know.
Finally, we will be running workshops and training courses during the conference. We will probably have a bit less time available for these than we set aside in a normal Dyalog Conference, so we are very keen to get some input on courses or workshops that you would like to see. Again, please write to conference@dyalog.com with your suggestions.
We hope that you will participate in making the event a success, either by attending or contributing "content" to the conference - and that we will see many of you in Berlin in September!

Morten Kromberg
