Over the past decade, digital signal processors (DSPs) have emerged as the processors of choice for implementing embedded applications in high-volume consumer products. Through th...
e data structures are abstractions of simple records and pointers. They impose a shape invariant, which is verified at compiletime and exploited to automatically generate code fo...
The memory intensive nature of object-oriented languages such as C++ and Java has created the need of a high-performance dynamic memory management (DMM); however, it is a challeng...
Concurrent and incremental collectors require barriers to ensure correct synchronisation between mutator and collector. The overheads imposed by particular barriers on particular ...
