Modern computer architectures increasingly depend on mechanisms that estimate future control flow decisions to increase performance. Mechanisms such as speculative execution and p...
Abstract. The use of pointers presents serious problems for software productivity tools for software understanding, restructuring, and testing. Pointers enable indirect memory acce...
Gaining the code re-use advantages of object oriented programming requires dynamic function binding, which allows a new subclass to override a function of a superclass. Dynamic bi...

We propose a new language concept called "L-closures" for a running program to legitimately inspect/modify the contents of its execution stack. L-closures are lightweight...
