+Building fast enough VMs in fast enough time
+============================================
+
+PyPy is a fast interpreter for the Python programming language. This however,
+not the whole description. It's also a framework for building efficient
+Virtual Machines for dynamic languages with relatively little effort.
+
+In this talk I would like to walk people through how the unique
+infrastructure provided by the PyPy project let's you write efficient
+virtual machines with minimal effort. This talk will cover the
+architecture of the PyPy project, how to use it in your own VMs as
+well as how to hook up an efficient garbage collector and Just In Time
+compiler with minimal effort.
+
+This talk assumes no prior exposure to compiler techniques and assumes
+some very basic knowledge of the Python programming language.
