EE380: Computer Systems Colloquium Seminar
Concatenative Programming: From Ivory to Metal
Speaker: Jon Purdy, Microsoft

Concatenative programming is a relatively new programming paradigm built on a simple yet powerful tool: function composition. In this talk I will give an overview of concatenative languages from high-level theory down to low-level implementation. I will discuss some historical background, give an overview of the existing concatenative programming literature, then dive into examples of the exciting advantages that these languages may have to offer in terms of program correctness, safety, usability, and performance on the hardware of today and tomorrow.

About the Speaker:
Jon Purdy is a software engineer who has worked extensively on programming language technology such as compilers, virtual machines, and garbage collectors, both in industry and as a hobbyist. He has worked on the Mono runtime at Xamarin and Microsoft, developed high-performance site integrity infrastructure in Haskell at Facebook, and co-developed an ActionScript compiler for an implementation of Flash. In his spare time he works on Kitten, a statically typed concatenative programming language.
