Java programs are deployed in a bytecode format that is executed by a Java virtual machine (JVM). JVM performance is determined by several major components: execution engine, garbage collector, and threading system. The static compilation and optimization approach, such as…

Despite the popularity of Java, problems may arise from potential data-race conditionsduring execution of a Java program. Data-races are considered errors in concurrent pro-gramming languages and greatly complicate both programming and runtime optimizationefforts. A race-free version of Java is therefore…

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…

Programs written for machine execution will always be susceptible to information theft. This information can include trademarked algorithms, data embedded in the program, or even data the program accesses. As technology advances computer scientists are building more and more powerful…

In designing compiler analyses and optimisations, the choice of intermediate representation (IR) is a crucial one. Static Single Assignment (SSA) form in particular is an IR with interesting properties, enabling certain analyses and optimisations to be more easily implemented while…

Side-effect analysis gives information about the set of locations that a statement may read or modify. This analysis can provide information useful in a compiler for performing aggressive optimizations. The impact of the use of side-effect analysis in compiler optimizations…

A fundamental problem in interprocedural program analyses is the need to represent and manipulate collections of large sets. Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) are a data structure widely used in model checking to compactly encode large state sets. In this dissertation,…

With the development of multi-processors, multi-threaded programs and programming languages have become more and more popular. This requires extending the scope of program analysis and compiler optimization from traditional, sequential programs to concurrent programs., Naumovich et al. proposed May Happen…

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…

The pure methods in a program are those that exhibit functional or side effect free behaviour, a useful property of methods or code in the context of program optimization as well as program understanding. However, gathering purity data is not…
