Return of Wabi-Sabi: Hastega Will Bring More and More Computational Power to Elixir

Finally, we’ve succeeded in the implementation of Hastega!!! (Maybe until ElixirConf US 2019 :-)

Hastega (Hyper Accelerator of Spreading Tasks for Elixir with GPU Activation) will accelerate “Elixir Zen-styled code” like a berserk Samurai! It will be the most hopeful solution for getting more computational power against the terrible data explosion. To know the details of the above description, check the previous talk: https://www.lonestarelixirconf.com/2019/speakers/21#susumu-yamazaki

This talk shows updates on Hastega, demonstrates acceleration computing using Enum.map by it on live, informs you about the R&D road map of it, and asks you for help us to conduct further research on it.
