Many new Java runtime optimizations report relatively small, single-digit performance improvements. On modern virtual and actual hardware, however, the performance impact of an op...
In this paper, we present an efficient procedure for building a piecewise linear function approximation of the speed function of a processor with hierarchical memory structure. Th...
Interpreted languages have become increasingly popular due to demands for rapid program development, ease of use, portability, and safety. Beyond the general impression that they ...

When Java was first introduced, there was a perception that its many benefits came at a significant performance cost. In the particularly performance-sensitive field of numerical ...
High-performance computing is and has always been performance oriented. However, a consequence of the push towards maximum performance is increased energy consumption, especially ...
