Reactive extensions is a new and exciting topic for most of us and Bart, being the expert in functional programming paradigm, will be an excellent speaker to listen to.

Abstract: Reactive Extensions for .NET (Rx) is a library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs using observable collections.Rx is a superset of the standard LINQ sequence operators that exposes asynchronous and event-based computations as push-based, observable collections via the new .NET 4.0 interfaces IObservable and IObserver. This talk will introduce you to Rx and Bret will teach how to do complex event processing and asynchronous computations using LINQ queries over observable collections using Reactive Extensions.
