Reﬂexes: Abstractions for Integrating Highly Responsive Tasks into Java Applications

Achieving submillisecond response times in a managed language environment such as Java or C# requires overcoming signiﬁcant challenges. In this article, we propose Reﬂexes, a programming model and runtime system infrastructure that lets developers seamless ...

High-Performance Transactional Event Processing

Rachid Guerraoui, Jesper Honig Spring, Antonio Cunei

This paper presents a transactional framework for low-latency, high-performance, concurrent event processing in Java. At the heart of our framework lies Reﬂexes, a restricted programming model for highly responsive systems. A Reﬂex task is an event process ...

Reflexes: programming abstractions for highly responsive computing in Java

Jesper Honig Spring

Achieving sub-millisecond response times in a managed language environment such as Java introduces significant implementation challenges. The Achilles' heel of Java is its reliance on automatic memory management for reclaiming dead objects. Typically, the ...

Pervasive Computing with Frugal Objects

Benoît Garbinato, Rachid Guerraoui, Maxime Monod, Jesper Honig Spring

This paper presents a computing model for resource-limited mobile devices that might be ubiquitously deployed in private and business environments. The model integrates a strongly-typed event-based communication paradigm with abstractions for frugal contro ...

Reflexes: Abstractions for Highly Responsive Systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Jesper Honig Spring

Commercial Java virtual machines are designed to maximize the performance of applications at the expense of predictability. High throughput garbage collection algorithms, for example, can introduce pauses of 100 milliseconds or more. We are interested in s ...

The Weight-Watcher Service and its Lightweight Implementation

Benoît Garbinato, Rachid Guerraoui, Maxime Monod, Alexei Kounine, Jesper Honig Spring

This paper presents the Weight-Watcher service. This service aims at providing resource consumption measurements and estimations for software executing on resource constrained devices. By using the Weight-Watcher, software components can continuously adapt ...
