The Delft-Java Engine: An Introduction
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we introduce the Delft-Java multithreaded processor architecture and organization. The proposed architecture provides direct translation capability from the Java Virtual Machine instruction set into the Delft-Java instruction set. The instruction set is a 32-bit RISC instruction set architecture with support for multiple concurrent threads and Java speci c constructs. The parallelism is extracted transparently to the programmer. Except for kernel programs, programmers need only be concerned with the semantics of the Java programming language. In addition, programmers who desire to take greater advantage of parallelism can execute privileged instructions which provide additional capabilities for Multimedia and DSP processing.

DELFT-JAVA Link Translation Buffer
We describe the hardware support in the DELFT-JAVA processor which enables efficient dynamic linking of JAVA programs. The proposed mechanism supports method invocation of dynamically linked classes through the use of a Link Translation Buffer (LTB). Since our Instruction Set Architecture directly supports dynamically linked method invocation, the Link Translation Buffer is architecturally tran...
متن کاملDelft-Java Dynamic Translation
This paper describes the DELFT-JAVA processor and the mechanisms required to dynamically translate JVM instructions into DELFT-JAVA instructions. Using a form of hardware register allocation, we transform stack bottlenecks into pipeline dependencies which are later removed using register renaming and interlock collapsing arithmetic units. When combined with superscalar techniques and multiple i...
متن کاملThe Java Community and Rule Engine Standards
Introduction The number one request from the Java rules community is a standard business rules language (source: http://www.javarules.org). Developers view a standard rule language as a key enabling technology, allowing them to build tools and applications that can generate and manage rules, and execute them on multiple rule engines. A standard rule language breaks the dreaded "vendor lock in" ...
متن کاملA Quick Tutorial on JET
JET is an automated unit testing tool for Java classes annotated with JML specifications; JML is a formal interface specification language for Java to document the behavior of Java classes and interfaces. JET tests each method of the class under test separately. For each method, it generates a collection of test data, executes them, and decides test results (i.e., pass/fail) by using JML specif...
