Detailed Heap Profiling

James Richard Larus, Stuart Anthony Byma

Modern software systems heavily use the memory heap. As systems grow more complex and compute with increasing amounts of data, it can be difficult for developers to understand how their programs actually use the bytes that they allocate on the heap and whe ...

Limitations of Partial Compaction: Towards Practical Bounds

Nachshon Cohen

Compaction of a managed heap is a costly operation to be avoided as much as possible in commercial runtimes. Instead, partial compaction is often used to defragment parts of the heap and avoid space blowup. Previous study of compaction limitation provided ...

Bridging Islands of Specialized Code using Macros and Reified Types

Nicolas Alexander Stucki, Vlad Ureche

Parametric polymorphism in Scala suffers from the usual drawback of erasure on the Java Virtual Machine: primitive values are boxed, leading to indirect access, wasteful use of heap memory and lack of cache locality. For performance-critical parts of the c ...

Using Reified Types for Specialization

Nicolas Alexander Stucki

Generic code increases programmer productivity as it increases code reuse. For example, the LinkedList abstraction can be used in many contexts, from storing a list of numbers to storing representations of files on the disk. Unfortunately this comes at the ...

Miniboxing: An Encoding for Specialization

Cristian Talau

In the presence of parametric polymorphism, erasure-based languages such as Java and Scala handle primitives (boolean values, integers and floating point numbers) in a suboptimal way: in order to provide a uniform representation on the low level, all primi ...

Shape Refinement through Explicit Heap Analysis

Dirk Thilo Beyer, Grégory Théoduloz, Damien Zufferey

Shape analysis is a promising technique to prove program properties about recursive data structures. The challenge is to automatically determine the data-structure type, and to supply the shape analysis with the necessary information about the data structu ...

Building a Calculus of Data Structures

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Ruzica Piskac

Techniques such as verification condition generation, predicate abstraction, and expressive type systems reduce software verification to proving formulas in expressive logics. Programs and their specifications often make use of data structures such as sets ...

Software Verification by Combining Program Analyses of Adjustable Precision

Grégory Théoduloz

In automatic software verification, we have observed a theoretical convergence of model checking and program analysis. In practice, however, model checkers, on one hand, are still mostly concerned with precision, e.g., the removal of spurious counterexampl ...

Energy-efficient dynamic memory allocators at the middleware level of embedded systems

David Atienza Alonso

The next generation of embedded systems will be dominated by mobile devices, which are able to deliver communications and rich multimedia content anytime, anywhere. The major themes in these ubiquitous computing systems are applications with increased user ...
