Architectural advancements in modern processor designs increase average performance with features such as pipelines, caches, branch prediction, and out-of-order execution. However...
Abstract. Java is widely deployed on a variety of processor architectures. Consequently, an understanding of microarchitecture level Java performance is critical to optimize curren...
Object oriented languages, in particular Java, use a frequent dynamic dispatch mechanism to search for the definition of an invoked method. A method could be defined in more than...
