Christophe de Dinechin
Christophe has been with HP since 1995. He started his career with what is now Agilent, writing real-time software for automotive electronics testing. He then spent a few years on the C++ compiler, represented HP at various committees, including the C++ Standard Committee, implemented what is now the defacto standard for C++ exception handling, and built HP's first native C and C++ compiler for Itanium. In 2000, he started the project that became Integrity Virtual Machines, and has been working on it ever since. In that project, he has been mostly responsible for the binary translator, context switching, low-level interrupt vectors, host-side code and some portions of the initial I/O stack.
