The programming and retasking of sensor nodes could benefit greatly from the use of a virtual machine (VM) since byte code is compact, can be loaded on demand, and interpreted on...
Large real-time software systems such as real-time Java virtual machines often use barrier protocols, which work for a dynamically varying number of threads without using centrali...
The performance of a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) interpreter running on a very long instruction word (VLIW) processor can be improved by means of pipelining. While one bytecode is i...
In previous work, we have shown that multicodes can be used to improve the performance of Java applications. We extend that work by both implementing more multicodes and consideri...
When Java was first introduced, there was a perception that its many benefits came at a significant performance cost. In the particularly performance-sensitive field of numerical ...
