Just-in-time performance without warm-up

Scala has been developed as a language that deeply integrates with the Java ecosystem. It offers seamless interoperability with existing Java libraries. Since the Scala compiler targets Java bytecode, Scala programs have access to high-performance runtimes ...

Exact Synthesis of LTL Properties from Traces

Heinz Riener

We present an exact approach to synthesize temporal-logic formulas in linear temporal logic (LTL) from a set of given positive and negative example traces. Our approach uses topology structures, in particular partial DAGs, to partition the search space int ...

Secured Routines: Language-based Construction of Trusted Execution Environments

James Richard Larus, Edouard Bugnion, Adrien Ghosn

Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), such as Intel SGX enclaves, use hardware to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of operations on sensitive data. While the technology is available on many processors, the complexity of its programming model and i ...

Object-Oriented Recovery for Non-volatile Memory

James Richard Larus, David Teksen Aksun, Nachshon Cohen

New non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies enable direct, durable storage of data in an application's heap. Durable, randomly accessible memory facilitates the construction of applications that do not lose data at system shutdown or power failure. Existing ...

Interflow: interprocedural flow-sensitive type inference and method duplication

Martin Odersky, Denys Shabalin

Scala heavily relies on a number of object-oriented abstractions to support its feature-rich collections library. There are known techniques that optimize those abstractions away in just-in-time (JIT) compilers, but applying them in the ahead-of-time (AOT) ...

Cross-Platform Language Design

Sébastien Jean R Doeraene

Programming languages are increasingly compiled to multiple runtimes, each featuring their own rich structures such as their object model. Furthermore, they need to interact with other languages targeting said runtimes. A language targeting only one runtim ...

Interactive Synthesis using Free-Form Queries

Viktor Kuncak, Tihomir Gvero

We present a new code assistance tool for integrated development environments. Our system accepts free-form queries allowing a mixture of English and Java as an input, and produces Java code fragments that take the query into account and respect syntax, ty ...

Automated Design Flow for Multi-Functional Dataflow-Based Platforms

Marco Mattavelli, Simone Casale Brunet, Endri Bezati

The implementation of processing platforms supporting multiple applications by runtime reconfigurations on dedicated hardware modules requires the solution of different problems. These problems are notably not-trivial since both platform and application co ...

Surgical Precision JIT Compilers

Tiark Rompf, Hassan Chafi

Just-in-time (JIT) compilation of running programs provides more optimization opportunities than offline compilation. Modern JIT compilers, such as those in virtual machines like Oracle's HotSpot for Java or Google's V8 for JavaScript, rely on dynamic prof ...

Staged parser combinators for efficient data processing

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Sandro Stucki, Manohar Jonnalagedda, Thierry Coppey

Parsers are ubiquitous in computing, and many applications depend on their performance for decoding data efficiently. Parser combinators are an intuitive tool for writing parsers: tight integration with the host language enables grammar specifications to b ...

Miniboxing: Improving the Speed to Code Size Tradeoff in Parametric Polymorphism Translations

Martin Odersky, Vlad Ureche, Cristian Talau

Parametric polymorphism enables code reuse and type safety. Underneath the uniform interface exposed to programmers, however, its low level implementation has to cope with inherently non-uniform data: value types of different sizes and semantics (bytes, in ...

Secure Computing with the MPEG RVC Framework

Marco Mattavelli, Richard Thavot, Junaid Jameel Ahmad

Recently, ISO/IEC standardized a dataflow-programming framework called Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC) for the specification of video codecs. The RVC framework aims at providing the specification of a system at a high abstraction level so that the functi ...

Achieving high-throughput State Machine Replication in multi-core systems

André Schiper, Nuno Filipe de Sousa Santos

The traditional architecture used by implementations of Replicated State Machines (RSM) does not fully exploit modern multi-core CPUs. This is increasingly the limiting factor in their performance, because network speeds are increasing much faster than the ...

Integrated Kernel Partitioning and Scheduling for Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Arrays

Giovanni Ansaloni

Coarse-grained reconfigurable arrays (CGRAs) are a promising class of architectures conjugating flexibility and efficiency. Devising effective methodologies to map applications onto CGRAs is a challenging task, due to their parallel execution paradigm and ...

Memory Power Optimization of Java-Based Embedded Systems Exploiting Garbage Collection Information

David Atienza Alonso

Nowadays, Java is used in all types of embedded devices. For these memory-constrained systems, the automatic dynamicmemorymanager (Garbage Collector or GC) has been always a key factor in terms of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) performance. Moreover, in cu ...

Platform-wide Deadlock Immunity for Mobile Phones

George Candea, Horatiu Jula, Thomas Rensch

We present an implementation of our deadlock immunity system, Dimmunix, for mobile phone software. Within Android 2.2 OS, we modiﬁed Dalvik VM, the JVM running all the Android applications, to provide platform-wide deadlock immunity. We successfully ran th ...

Towards CPU Load Prediction for Java Bytecode

Andrea Camesi

This paper studies the use of bytecode instruction counting (BIC) to estimate the CPU load due to the execution of Java programs in different environments. BIC is the basis of the J-RAF2 framework to monitor and control the resource consumption of Java cod ...
