Vancouver systems is an independent talk series focused on systems programming.
We are focused on high quality talks and expert speakers here in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
“Systems programming is a way of modelling software development. It's not about a category of what you are working on, it's a way of looking at the problem. An excellent systems programmer fully understands the systems involved. ” - Andrew Kelley
We fully believe that you can be an excellent systems programmer while working on anything. Speakers will share their experience building, testing, debugging, and maintaining:
- Compilers, parsers, virtual machines, IDEs, profiling, etc.
- Databases, storage, networking, distributed systems
- Large scale infrastructure, low latency, high availability services
- Formal methods, verification
- Browsers, kernel development, security, etc.
- Algorithms, data structures, performance optimizations, HPC
- Operating Systems / kernels
- Embedded systems, IoT, robotics, etc.
- Machine learning training, inference, compute orchestration
- Many other things..
