📣 AMD Hypervisor with Rust (by Matthias Heiden)
17:40 (5:40pm CEST)

Hypervisors are an incredibly powerful tool that can be used to run your FaaS or just virtual machines. Windows also secured their OS by utilizing a hypervisor. But hypervisors can also be used for bad things. Malware and game hacks use it to get around detections. This talk aims to show you the process of how I wrote an AMD hypervisor for Rust.

ℹ️ About Matthias
Matthias is a passionate Software Engineer with an interest in Software Security. He first heard about Rust in school and decided to give it a try. A few months after reading the Rust book, he finally had the time to rewrite some personal projects and started to understand why Rust is awesome.

📣 A cellular automaton with Rust and Bevy (by Diemo Heuer)
Approx. 18:30 (6:30pm CEST)

Visualizing something is often fascinating even if the math behind it is quite simple. A good way to start in that topic is to choose a simple simulation, choose the technology, and then start implementing it on your own. Especially implementing a cellular automaton is a good first step. In this session, Diemo wants to introduce you to the world of cellular automata and how to use Rust and the Bevy framework for visualization.

ℹ️ About Diemo
Diemo Heuer is a Software-Developer from Rostock (Germany) employed at Altow Digital Innovation. He uses Rust for professional projects mainly in the backend but for his hobby projects, he explores the further capabilities of that technology. He also is the host of different community events in Rostock; e.g. the Rust Meetup Rostock, Elixir Meetup Rostock, or the Altow Inspire.
