Inlining is a widely studied compiler optimization that is particularly important for functional
languages such as Haskell and OCaml. The Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC) inliner is a …

The increasing sizes of modern applications significantly hinder user acquisition and
updates, particularly in computing environments constrained by memory and storage …

Compiler optimization decisions are often based on hand-crafted heuristics centered around
a few established benchmark suites. Alternatively, they can be learned from feature and …

Optimizing compilers rely on many hand-crafted heuristics to guide the optimization process.
However, the interactions between different optimizations makes their design a difficult task …

Profiling an application at runtime with hardware support plays an irreplaceable role in
monitoring, debugging, runtime verification, and optimizing application performance. Most …

Columnar databases are an established way to speed up online analytical processing
(OLAP) queries. Nowadays, data processing (eg, storage, visualization, and analytics) is …

Modern, optimizing compilers rely on hundreds of heuristics to decide whether and how to
apply optimizations during compilation. These heuristics are typically hand-crafted and …

Language Virtual Machines (VMs) are pervasive in every laptop, server, and smartphone, as
is the case with Java or Javascript. They allow application portability between different …
