Parallel programming with the .NET 4.0
With 
the rise of multicore processors the paradigm of parallel computing is 
gradually going mainstream from the undergrounds of academia and 
research. But most of the times, designing, developing & debugging 
parallelized applications makes a programmer dizzy. Here, Parallel 
Extensions in .NET 4.0 comes to rescue. In this overview session we will
 take a look into the current state of parallel programming and key 
features of Parallel Extensions in .NET which helps a developer to write
 programs for multicore processors efficiently..

Enhancement of Base Class Libraries (BCL) in .NET 4.0
Base 
Class Library (BCL) is the standard library available for all the 
languages in .NET Framework. Its huge set of well-designed classes and 
functions helps a programmer to improve code quality and productivity. 
Every time with launch of new versions of .NET we focus on MVC, WCF, WF…
 etc and poor yet powerful BCL does not get the due attention. To break 
this trend, this session aims to cover some of the new features of BCL 
& .NET Framework 4.0 including In-Process Side X Side execution, 
Diagnostics & Performance improvements, Data type 
additions,System.IO and other enhancements.
Enhancement of Entity Framework in .NET 4.0 
The 
session will start with the basics of Entity Framework and then cover 
the new features introduced inside .NET framework 4.0 and Visual Studio 
2010 as far as Entity Framework is concerned.
