Programmers who develop Web applications often use dynamic scripting languages such as Perl, PHP, Python, and Ruby. For general purpose scripting language usage, interpreter-based...
We apply speculative multithreading to sequential Java programs in software to achieve speedup on existing multiprocessors. A common speculation library supports both Java bytecod...
Just-in-time (JIT) compilation has previously been used in many applications to enable standard software binaries to execute on different underlying processor architectures. Howev...
Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling has been identified as one of the most effective ways to reduce power dissipation. This paper discusses a compilation strategy that identifies...
During maintenance, systems are updated to correct faults, improve functionality, and adapt the software to changes in its execution environment. The typical softwareupdate proces...
