In most modern operating systems, a process is a -protected abstraction for isolating code and data. This protection, however, is selective. Many common mechanisms—dynamic code ...
During the course of a program’s execution, a processor performs many trivial computations; that is, computations that can be simplified or where the result is zero, one, or equ...
Many excepting instructions cannot be removed by existing Partial Redundancy Elimination (PRE) algorithms because the ordering constraints must be preserved between the excepting ...
Modern operating systems frequently support applications with a variety of timing constraints including hard real-time, soft real-time, and best-effort. To guarantee performance, ...
Program slicing is a potentially useful analysis for aiding program understanding. However, slices of even small programs are often too large to be generally useful. Imprecise poi...
