Compiling high-level scripting languages to performant code
… have given rise to high- level scripting languages. These high-level scripting languages offer a fast way to translate ideas into code, but tend to incur a heavy performance overhead. To alleviate the performance penalty, each implementation of these languages often offer a compilation …

Introspective C++
Introspection has become a significant language feature to enable new component technologies. It enables such capabilities as runtime component discovery, new levels of component flexibility and change tolerance, dynamic reconfiguration and system self healing. Three levels of introspection are …

Parametricity as a Notion of Uniformity in Reflexive Graphs
… Thus abstract models of polymorphic programming languages are produced. Some programming language features, such as state and recursion, provide modeling complications when combined with polymorphism. We show that representation results are still obtainable for polymorphic programming languages …

Compile -Time Memory Disambiguation for C Programs
… can handle much larger C programs with realistic language features. Due to its modular feature, the amounts of time and memory requirements are greatly reduced. The dissertation also evaluates the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm on the complete SPECcint92 and SPECcint95 benchmark suites. …

Applying natural language models and causal models to project management systems
… First, it examines ways in which to use natural language features in time-varying data in predictive models, specifically applied to the problem of software project maintenance. We attempted to integrate this natural language data into our existing predictive models for project management …

Stella: A Python-based Domain-Specific Language for Simulations
Stella is a domain-specific language that (1) has single thread performance competitive with low-level languages, (2) supports object-oriented programming (OOP) to properly structure the code, and (3) is very easy to use. Instead of prototyping in a high-level language and then rewriting in a …
