Hi everybody,
This is an announce for the next meeting of the Montreal Scheme/Lisp User Group.
What: Montreal Scheme/Lisp User Group Meeting -- The Design of VLAM
Compyle : a tower of languages from Python to C++ using Scheme
When: *Thursday* February 26th 7pm
Where: Room 3195, André-Aisenstadt Building, Université de Montréal,
2920 chemin de la Tour
(you can find a plan of the UdeM campus here:
http://www.stcum.qc.ca/metro/images/c56.pdf)
Marc-Antoine Desroches will give a presentation about the design
choices made while building VLAM Compyle, a just-in-time compiler for
Python. Benefits and challenges associated with a language-based
design will be discussed.
``VLAM Compyle makes it possible to combine the expressive power of
dynamic programming languages with the high performance of the best
C++ compilers by transforming python code into optimized dynamically
linked libraries.''

As usual, we'll go to the pub after the presentation.
See you there!
Guillaume
