Fragmentation can cause serious loss of memory in systems that are using dynamic memory management. Any useful memory management system must therefore provide means to limit fragm...
Popular mobile code architectures (Java and .NET) include verifiers to check for memory safety and other security properties. Since their formats are relatively high level, suppor...
A Virtual Machine (VM) is a program running on a conventional microprocessor that emulates the binary instruction set, registers, and memory space of an idealized computing machine...
A platform that supported Sequential Consistency (SC) for all codes — not only the well-synchronized ones — would simplify the task of programmers. Recently, several hardware ...
