Creating Command Line Interface using Docopt

Speaker: Rengaraj

Docopt is a pythonic command line arguments parser. With Docopt, the usage documentation is written first, and passed on to Docopt, which uses this to create the parser! This talk will be a short talk on using Docopt.

Building Embedded Systems with Twisted

Speaker: Vijay Kumar

Twisted is an asynchronous networking engine written in Python. This talk will show how we, at Zilogic Systems, built an automated library management system, using Twisted and an ARM board running Emdebian Grip. The system uses an RFID reader for user authentication, reed switches to monitor the shelves and a buzzer to raise alerts.
