The Chrome web browser is designed to be fast, secure, and robust. This talk will cover some of the innovations in its design, and in the V8 JavaScript engine used by Chrome. We can look at the implementation of these features in the Chromium open-source version of the browser code, and discuss how web applications can be written that take maximum advantage of V8's optimizations.
