In this talk we’ll see why Albora Technologies has adopted Elixir to translate its deep scientific knowledge into a cloud framework to successfully validate the project idea and deliver a disruptive solution in the assets geolocation market. --- THE SPEAKER - Bruno Ripa Bruno Ripa is a software engineer that worked in multiple markets like mobile gaming, big data, digital assets management, analytics, fintech in different places (London, Barcelona, Italy) and with experience in many languages (C/C++, Python, Go, Java, Javascript). He's actually working as an Elixir contractor in the IoT market, primarily focusing on architecture but contributing to infrastructure, deployment, and frontend. If he's not struggling to write any blog post or article he's probably reading about some new tool and/or technology that will cause him to struggle to write about it. --- ElixirConf EU Website: https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU

Therefore, Lucjan and his team used Elixir's distributed capabilities to write a powerful, yet simple, scheduler for their data processing pipeline. Lucjan will talk about the various approaches to running external processes in Elixir, monitoring and displaying progress UI in LiveView and testing and the challenges. --- THE SPEAKER - Lucjan Suski Working in webdev industry since he was 12 years old. After 5 years of day-to-day Rails and React he co-founded a SaaS product company which evolved from an Elixir side project. --- ElixirConf EU Website: https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU

In this talk we'll understand how Nerves simplifies all this, letting us use Elixir to build embedded software. And to illustrate how awesome it is to use Elixir in this context, we'll create a keyboard controller from scratch with Nerves and a Raspberry Pi Zero. --- THE SPEAKER - André Albuquerque André Albuquerque is a senior software engineer at Hopin and one of the authors of the Mastering Elixir book. At Hopin he uses Elixir, Ruby and Python to develop and scale the current microservice architecture. He has a master's degree in distributed systems and software engineering, and, during his seven years working in the banking industry, he obtained a master's degree in economics. In his spare time he likes to build his own keyboards and work on the Interceptor Elixir library. --- ElixirConf EU Website: https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU

This talk proposes to explain what is a type system, why attempts to type strictly Erlang have failed and how the theory of Session Types might prove to be a way to achieve correctness in environments like Erlang's. --- THE SPEAKER - Charlotte Lorelei De Oliveira Charlotte asks too many “whys” and “hows”, this got them to become someone who thinks too much on how to improve things for everybody. --- ElixirConf EU Website: https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU

Sometimes OTP comes to the rescue, sometimes good tricks from the community, sometimes our own designs. I have been prototyping visualisation tools for the BEAM for few years already, also gave same talks around the topic. This time I would like to use these tools to tell our journey and present our learnings through a visual concurrency cookbook. --- THE SPEAKER - Vámosi Dániel Dániel started as architect (not software) 15 years ago, then he gradually switched to software development and later engineering management. Since 2016 January Daniel is leading the tech for flyiin.com and bringing BEAM technologies to the aviation industry. --- ElixirConf EU Website: https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU

It is known as one of the most complex algorithm to implement and it is used in the field of Artificial Intelligence. So can Elixir be used for Artificial Intelligence to build expert systems? Let's find out! I showcase an Elixir app in which we detect the sickness of a dog given a set of symptoms using Retex as the core business logic of the app. I demonstrate that AI on the BEAM works amazingly. --- THE SPEAKER - Lorenzo Sinisi Dániel started as architect (not software) 15 years ago, then he gradually switched to software development and later engineering management.
