Performance of Object-oriented Languages Research Students: Recent Participants: Angela Sampogna Jason Casmira John Kalamatianos Faculty: David Kaeli Project Summary: T his research investigates the inherent performance problems associated with object-oriented code execution. Traces are being captured from a number of object-oriented programming environments. A workload characterization is performed to identify the underlying problems presented by this new programming model. Compile time and architectural changes are proposed to improve the execution performance of object-oriented code. As more software is developed using object-oriented languages, this research will have a direct impact on acceleration of the performance of future applications. Related information can be found at:
