OpenEvolve: Towards Open Evolutionary Agents
Dr. Asankhaya Sharma🎙
OpenEvolve is an open-source evolutionary coding agent that democratizes algorithmic discovery by combining LLMs with evolutionary computation. Our research demonstrates remarkable achievements, replicating AlphaEvolve's mathematical optimization results and so much more. This talk presents our journey towards open evolutionary agents for algorithm discovery.
Sequencers, Speed and the Strategic Life of an Order
Dr. Bogdan Tudor🎙
This talk will take you inside a high-performance trading system, following an order’s journey. We’ll unpack the sequencer architecture that enforces determinism, the risk and routing layers that run in the fast path, and the mechanisms ensuring scalability, reliability, and recoverability. This talk presents a clear view of how production-grade systems achieves predictable latency without sacrificing correctness.
