Luca Saiu — projects [still incomplete]

[FIXME: write this]

This page is not ready yet. The hacks page has a little more information of some of these.


GNU Jitter

Jitter is a generator of efficient language virtual machines.
I started what became Jitter as an attempt to optimise
GNU epsilon. Jitter has now evolved into an interesting project, useful on its own; it has itself been approved as a separate GNU project in December 2021.

There used to be a web page for Jitter on this server, but I moved the main web site for Jitter to gnu.org. It is still written by me.

This web site still contains the master copy of two important Jitter resources:


GNU epsilon

[FIXME: write this]

Of course there is a page about epsilon on the GNU project web site.

My PhD thesis is not a replacement for actual documentation (which I have not written yet), but it may be a nice way of understanding the philosophy behind epsilon.


Vaucanson

The Vaucanson project has
a web page at LRDE-EPITA; its official web site contains less information.


Marionnet

Marionnet has its own web site.

The other co-author is Jean-Vincent Loddo.
