EMC2 (Enhanced Machine Control) is an open source software system for computer control of machine tools such as milling machines, lathes and even robots. This presentation will discuss the use of Linux and EMC for machining, and along the way touch on such topics as basic machining concepts, "G-Code" the language of machining, coordinate systems, hard real-time in Linux, interfacing to real world hardware, Robots, Fabs (3D Printers) and a couple of other open source projects related to EMC. The presentation will include a demonstration of the software and a show and tell of some of the hardware to which it can interface. http://linuxcnc.org The meeting will take place on Tuesday, December 14, from 7-9pm (7-8 General Q&A, 8-9 Presentation) at CoreDial's new location: CoreDial (http://www.coredial.com/) 1787 Sentry Parkway West Suite 100 (Building 16) Blue Bell, PA 19422 Directions and other information are on our website: http://www.phillylinux.org/locations/coredial.html We request that you RSVP at rsvp@phillylinux.org if you intend on coming so we have some idea of how many to expect, but it is not required.

Kyle has previously given this talk at PLUG West and PLUG Central. "When you're a small, and I mean small, company with an even smaller IT department you can't afford not to automate provisioning and system administration. Developing a culture of automation early on is vital for ensuring that your infrastructure group can scale itself as your business grows. Chef is an up and coming system administration automation framework that makes installing and managing cloud computing systems take less time and produces more consistent results. This talk will cover the architecture of Chef-Solo, getting started, core features and best practices for maintainng a cluster of systems." http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Home The meeting will take place on Tuesday, November 9, from 7-9pm (7-8 General Q&A, 8-9 Presentation) at CoreDial's new location: CoreDial (http://www.coredial.com/) 1787 Sentry Parkway West Suite 100 (Building 16) Blue Bell, PA 19422 Directions and other information are on our website: http://www.phillylinux.org/locations/coredial.html We request that you RSVP at rsvp@phillylinux.org if you intend on coming so we have some idea of how many to expect, but it is not required.
