A preview feature in Java is one that is not yet added permanently even though its design, specification, and implementation are complete. Presently Java has quite a few preview features in the ...

Abstract: Techniques are presented for reducing the performance overhead of switch instructions in a multicore hardware-accelerated Java virtual machine. The bytecode instruction set is extended with ...

Normally, a VM defines the semantics of it's programming language. In case of Java, the corresponding instruction set represents a multi-threaded stack machine, where values are kept on the heap, or ...

To prove termination of Java Bytecode (JBC) automatically, we transform JBC to finite termination graphs which represent all possible runs of the program. Afterwards, the graph can be translated into ...

You probably hold with the conventional view that the Java language cannot be used for embedded programming. According to this view, implementations of the Java language are (1) too slow, (2) too big, ...
