Hello everyone:

In the Computing Round Table on Tuesday, December 6th, Fernando Perez 
(Berkeley Lab, Berkeley Institute for Data Science) will give us an 
overview about the Jupyter Project. “The Jupyter Notebook is a web 
application that allows you to create and share documents that contain 
live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text. Use cases 
include: data cleaning and transformation, numerical simulation, 
statistical modeling, machine learning and much more.”

Fernando Perez’s “research focuses on creating tools for modern 
computational research and data science across domain disciplines, with 
an emphasis on high-level languages, literate computing, and 
reproducible research. He created IPython when he was graduate student 
in 2001 and continues to lead it as it evolves into the Jupyter Project, 
now as an open, collaborative effort. He regularly lectures about 
scientific computing and data science and is a member of the Python 
Software Foundation as well as a founding member of the Numfocus 
Foundation. He is the recipient of the 2012 Award for the Advancement of 
Free Software from the Free Software Foundation.”

The Computing Round Table discussion will take place from 1:00 - 3:00 
p.m. (EDT) in meeting room F326-327. We will use Blue Jeans for remote 
participation. You can connect to the remote meeting via your browser:
