On 15 April, 2026, Elektor is hosting a conference on RISC-V and its increasing significance for embedded and IoT systems. Ahead of the event, we spoke with one of the speakers, Gerard Vink. He is the Head of R&D at TASKING which develops professional compiler, debugging and testing tools for safety-critical embedded systems and offers an end-to-end, certifiable toolchain for the automotive, aerospace, industrial and robotics sectors. His presentation provides practical insights into building safe, secure, and high-performance RISC-V based systems by integrating architectural safety mechanisms, microarchitectural optimizations, and advanced compiler technology.
