This thesis presents Dava, a Java bytecode to Java source code decompiler built on top of the Soot framework., The Java Virtual Machine Specification of valid bytecode is much less restrictive than the Java Language Specification of valid Java source…

Many compiler analyses and optimizations require precise information about the behaviour of pointers in order to be effective. Points-to analysis is a technique for computing this information that has been studied extensively over the last decade. Most of this research…

In this thesis I examine the issues of sex education in Western and Javanese society using a conceptual-comparative approach. My main goal is to highlight the importance of sex education for young people in Javanese society. Research foci and discoveries…

Effective dynamic virtual-machine optimization depends on quickly finding and optimizing frequently-executed code regions. Such regions are naturally represented with a trace-cache, a collection of long, frequently-executed sequences of instructions. An ideal trace-cache is small and captures the majority of the…

Stock option trading has been very active since options were invented. Option analysis is very useful in helping investors decide investing strategies and predict the trend of the future stock movements. In this thesis, basic theory about stock option trading…

This thesis presents a new algorithm to compute the probability that a state in a labeled Markov chain model satisfies an LTL specification. A solution to this problem was given by Courcoubetis & Yannakakis in 1995, but unlike their solution…

This study describes how the New Order regime created and used a particular version of the Indonesian past. This official past drew on the work of "the history industry" (archaeological and historical research) and is reflected in approved works of…

In this thesis, we introduce SableJIT, a retargetable just-in-time compiler for the SableVM Java virtual machine. Our design attempts to minimize the amount of work required to port (or to retarget) our compiler to a new platform. We accomplish this…

Galaxy shell, a sub component of Galaxy project, is designed and implemented. Galaxy shell is a core component of the Galaxy services, which provides an interface for Galaxy developers or other modules to access certain functions supported by Galaxy system.…

Program tracing is a common technique employed by software and hardware developers who are interested in characterizing the dynamic behavior of complex software systems. However, despite the popularity of trace-driven analyses, there are surprisingly few options for encoding trace data…
