AdaCore attends FOSDEM
by Emma Adby –
Earlier this month AdaCore attended FOSDEM in Brussels, an event focused on the use of free and open source software. Two members of our technical team were there to give talks: "Prove with SPARK: No Math, Just Code" from Yannick Moy and "64 bit Bare Metal Programming on RPI-3" from Tristan Gingold.
Yannick Moy presented how to prove key properties of Tetris in SPARK and run it on ARM Cortex M. The presentation focused on the accessibility of the proof technology to software engineers, who simply have to code the specification, which does not require a specific math background.

Tristan Gingold presented the Raspberry PI 3 board, how to write and build a first example and a demo of a more advanced multi-core application. With almost no tutorials on the internet, he addressed the main new feature of the popular RPI-3 board: 4x 64 bit cores. Click here to watch Tristan's presentation in full.
