OBJECTIVE: Showing the audience that 1. there is an easy approach to JITing dynamic programs 2. the general-purpose JIT compiler by our approach is now available AUDIENCE: Programmers who are interested in faster dynamic programming languages, especially Python programmers. Researchers who are interested in optimisations for dynamic programming languages. --- SPEAKER - Taine Zhao General-purpose Python JIT? Is the free lunch coming? Taine Zhao is a master student at University of Tsukuba studying Programming Languages and active in open-source projects. Taine is familiar with functional programming languages such as Haskell, OCaml and F#, but also has a passion for dynamic programming languages such as Julia and Python. --- Lambda Days Website: https://www.lambdadays.org​ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LambdaDays​
