J-Spring 2023: Ode to the mighty Bit – Roy van Rijn

At previous conferences (including J-Fall) I’ve talked about quantum computing and the amazing properties and possibilities of quantum bits/qubits. However: Now it is time to give the regular old binary bit the love that it deserves. During this talk we will dive into bits and booleans, the foundation of modern computing and the building blocks of your entire career. We’ll look at truth tables, bit masking, bit twiddling, NAND gates, how to store and manipulate data (like floating point numbers) and finally we’ll take a look at the powerful concept of boolean satisfiability & SAT solvers.
