"Using Rust on RIOT OS"

Title:

Using Rust on RIOT OS

Bio:

Christian Amsüss is active in Free Software communities since 2005, and develops with embedded devices and their networks since 2011. His objective is to help paving a way towards a Web of Things in which interoperability can be expected, the user is in control, and which is secure by default.

Abstract:

The Rust programming language promises memory safety, modern expressive language constructs and the capability to implement abstractions at zero run-time cost. Over the last two years, it has greatly improved its usability for embedded development.

In this presentation, I will present a usable approach towards developing software in Rust based on the RIOT operating system, and report on experience gained with it..
