Some systems people are around for the RISC-V conference, and there is a lot of interesting work around Switzerland, and it is a lovely place to visit. Let us explore different and interesting approaches to high performance, simple and correct code. Are you interested in getting the most performance out of hardware, simple accessible ways of getting high performance, or ways of writing correct code more easily? Come and share your experiences. Modern software has grown increasingly complex. Abstractions and programming designs from the past are layered on top of each other, leaving us with software that is increasingly complex and hard to understand, does not perform well, and is insecure. The RISC-V model for CPUs has drastically simplified hardware, back to true RISC, while providing extensibility with application specific extensions. What does the equivalent simple, fast and secure model look like for our software stacks? This unconference brings together system developers working on high-performance code, security, formal methods, operating systems and more who are trying different approaches that remove abstraction layers and provide understandable, secure and performant systems.
