[Christian Wimmer]

Hi,

The screen recording as well as the slides of my 3-hour tutorial on 
Graal (delivered at the CGO conference in February) are now available:

https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/Graal/Publications+and+Presentations

Topics covered:
* Key distinguishing features of Graal,
* Introduction to the Graal IR: basic properties, instructions, and 
optimization phases
* Speculative optimizations: first-class support for optimistic 
optimizations and deoptimization
* Graal API: separation of the compiler from the VM
* Snippets: expressing high-level semantics in low-level Java code
* Compiler intrinsics: use all your hardware instructions with Graal
* Using Graal for static analysis
* Custom compilations with Graal: integration of the compiler with an 
application or library
* Graal as a compiler for dynamic programming languages in the Truffle 
framework
