UKSTUG Meeting - 29 November 2023 - Pierre Misse-Chanabier: Polyphemus

[Giovanni Corriga]

For the November UKSTUG meeting, Pierre Misse-Chanabier will talk to us
about Polyphemus for the Pharo Virtual Machine (
https://github.com/hogoww/Polyphemus ).The presentation will focus on how
to create Tooling on the Pharo Virtual Machine. (This does not require
Virtual machine level knowledge)
We will start by taking a look at a few existing tools. We will create one
or two small tools, and see how they differ from tooling on the image
side.Pierre Misse Chanabier is a recently graduated PhD with a focused
interest on Virtual Machines, Code Generation, and Meta Programming. He
worked on and contributed to many different levels and parts of the Pharo
ecosystem.
He is now working on how to leverage images for more than what they do now.
He's currently working at Microdoc on the Graal VM (
https://www.microdoc.com/ ).
Born in south of France, he currently lives in Lille.

This will be an online meeting from home.
