Scientists are increasingly turning to numerical simulation in order to investigate and model complex environmental systems. Numerical simulation has enormous advantages over labor...
The performance of automatic memory management may be improved if the policies used in allocating and collecting objects had knowledge of the lifetimes of objects. To date, approa...
Existing schemes for object layout and dispatch in the presence of multiple inheritance and separate compilation waste space and are slower than systems with single inheritance. T...
