Fast compilation is important when occurs at runtime, such as query compilers in modern database systems and WebAssembly virtual machines browsers. We present copy-and-patch, an extremely fast technique that also produces good quality code. It capable of lowering both high-level languages low-level bytecode programs to binary code, by stitching together code from a large library implementation ...

Three aspects of learning to program are descr ibed-the organization and compilation of problem-solving operators, the impact of knowledge representation, and the impact of working memory limitations. The GRAPES system simulates the organization and compilation of these operators. The simulation of one problem solving episode is discussed. Also discussed are the impact of different data notatio...

A new version of the compilation of higher plant mitochondrial tRNA genes (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/service ) has been obtained by means of the FastA program for similarity searching in nucleotide sequence Databases. This approach improves the previous collection, which was based on literature data analysis. The current compilation contains 158 sequences with an increase of 43 units. In this paper,...

Block diagram languages provide an effective approach to developing Digital Signal Processing applications. The tools that support block diagram languages use existing compilation systems to produce code. The inefficiencies of the compilation systems are compounded with inefficiencies interfacing to them. Generation of intermediate code direct from the block diagram bypasses these inefficiencie...

The main challenge faced by a dynamic compilation system is to detect and translate frequently executed program regions into highly efficient native code as fast as possible. To efficiently reduce dynamic compilation latency, a dynamic compilation system must improve its workload throughput, i.e. compile more application hotspots per time. As time for dynamic compilation adds to the overall exe...
