Software Engineering Radio - the podcast for professional software developersFlorian Gilcher on Rust for Safety-Critical SystemsFlorian Gilcher, co-founder of Ferrous Systems and the Rust Foundation, speaks with host Giovanni Asproni about the application of Rust in mission- and safety-critical systems. The discussion starts with a brief overview of such systems, and an introduction to Rust, emphasizing aspects that make it well-suited for critical environments. Florian and Giovanni then discuss how Rust compares to C and C++ — two widely used languages in this sector. They proceed to outline important factors that companies should consider when assessing whether to move from C or other languages to Rust. The episode also touches on Ferrocene, an op...

Inside ElectronicsCan Rust Work for Safety Critical Embedded System?Rust is a relatively new programming language that has garnered support from developers working on everything from Linux device drivers to cloud services. Rust pointer management is one thing that makes the language stand out.
As an open-source project, it cannot be used directly in many applications where things like IEC 62304 and ISO 26262 are needed. This requires a version that meets these requirements which is where Ferrous Systems’ Ferrocene comes into play.
In this episode, Ferrous Systems’ Florian Gilcher talks about Rust, Ferrocene, and how these it brings Rust into the world of rugged and embedded...

Embedded Executive PodcastEmbedded Executive: Quentin Ochem, Product Management Lead, AdaCore and Florian Gilcher, Managing Director, Ferrous SystemsAdaCore is one of the leaders in the Ada programming language. Ada has been around for a long time, and is time tested. AdaCore recently announced that it is working with Rust, which is far newer than Ada. To me, that sounds like a disconnect. To understand how and why this marriage occurred, I invited Quentin Ochem, the Lead for Product Management and Business Development at AdaCore and Florian Gilcher, the Managing Director of Ferrous Systems for this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Rust originates from Mozilla research. Its focus is on system programming and it is often used to replace C or C++. Topics include the concepts behind Rust; concurrent and safe programming; advanced and unique features like ownership and borrowing; the rust type system (which supports other features like traits, generics and macros). The show finishes with: the evolution of Rust based, features of libraries, and how the community works.
