Summary Chris Seaton talks about Graal, Oracle Labs' new JIT compiler written in Java, making development on it easier and so enabling new research into optimisations; and Truffle, a framework for implementing languages that uses Graal. Oracle Labs' implementation of JavaScript is competitive with Google’s V8.

Bio Dr. Chris Seaton is a Research Manager at the Virtual Machine Group in Oracle Labs, where he leads the work to implement Ruby using the next generation of Java Virtual Machine technology, and other projects.
