In this talk, Walter does a deep dive into the code generator in the DMD compiler's back end, a project he has maintained and evolved since he created it for his first C compiler in the early 80s.</p>

                                 <p class="bio w3-card">Walter Bright is the creator and first implementer of the D programming language and has implemented compilers for several other languages. He&#8217;s an expert in all areas of compiler technology, including front ends, optimizers, code generation, interpreter engines, and runtime libraries. Walter regularly writes articles about compilers and programming, is known for engaging and informative presentations, and provides training in compiler development techniques. Many are surprised to discover that Walter is also the creator of the wargame Empire, which is still popular today over 40 years after its debut.</p>
