   R / Finance 2010: Applied Finance with R
   April 16 & 17, Chicago, IL, US
  
   The second annual R / Finance conference for applied finance using R, 
   the premier free software system for statistical computation and graphics,
   will be held this spring in Chicago, IL, USA on Friday April 16 and
   Saturday April 17.

   Building on the success of the inaugural R / Finance 2009 event, this
   two-day conference will cover topics as diverse as portfolio theory,
   time-series analysis, as well as advanced risk tools, high-performance
   computing, and econometrics. All will be discussed within the context of
   using R as a primary tool for financial risk management and trading.

   Invited keynote presentations by Bernhard Pfaff, Ralph Vince, Mark Wildi
   and Achim Zeileis are complemented by over twenty talks (both full-length
   and 'lightning') selected from the submissions.  Four optional tutorials
   are also offered on Friday April 16.

   R / Finance 2010 is organized by a local group of R package authors and
   community contributors, and hosted by the International Center for Futures
   and Derivatives [ICFD] at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

   Conference registration is now open. Special advanced registration pricing is
   available, as well as discounted pricing for academic and student
   registrations.
