The document discusses working with bytecode through the use of two tools: IRBuilder and ByteSurgeon. IRBuilder allows for easy generation of bytecode by providing a symbolic assembler interface. ByteSurgeon allows for transformation of existing bytecode through insertion, deletion, and replacement of instructions. Advanced features of ByteSurgeon like metavariables allow access to values on the stack before and after method sends for instrumentation purposes like logging.
The document discusses working with bytecodes in Smalltalk. It describes reasons for working with bytecodes like generating bytecode, implementing compilers, and analyzing programs. It provides an overview of Squeak bytecodes and examples of generating and decoding bytecodes. Key frameworks discussed for working with bytecodes are IRBuilder for generating bytecode, InstructionStream for parsing bytecode, and ContextPart for interpreting bytecode.
The document discusses various techniques for implementing reflection in object-oriented programming languages like Smalltalk. It describes approaches for controlling message passing through minimal objects, anonymous classes, and method substitution. Minimal objects intercept messages using doesNotUnderstand:, while anonymous classes are inserted between instances and their classes to control lookup. Method substitution directly replaces methods to add control. The document analyzes the tradeoffs of different reflective approaches.
The document discusses behavioral reflection and metaprogramming techniques in Smalltalk. It introduces sub-method structures like bytecode, the ByteSurgeon library for bytecode transformation, and Geppetto which enables partial behavioral reflection through hooksets and metaobjects. This allows profiling and caching to be selectively added to applications at runtime without restarting the system. Future work includes improving tool support and integrating with AST representations.
This document provides an overview of Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) in iOS. It describes key GCD concepts like blocks, dispatch queues, operation queues, dispatch groups, and dispatch semaphores. It explains how to define and execute tasks using these constructs. Examples are given showing how to download images asynchronously and use callback blocks. References for further reading on GCD are also provided.
The document discusses threads, which allow for multiple paths of execution within an application. All user interface updates must occur on the main thread. While performing background tasks, one can use timers, performSelector methods, or manual NSThreads to ensure the main thread remains responsive for UI updates. JSON provides a simple format for communicating data between client and server applications on iPhone, and the SBJSON framework can be used to parse JSON strings into Objective-C objects.

Blocks allow passing code as a parameter or return value from functions. They capture the context in which they are defined. Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) simplifies concurrent programming using dispatch queues, which can execute blocks asynchronously or synchronously, and dispatch sources which attach blocks to system events. Dispatch groups and semaphores help coordinate work across dispatch queues.
Python for Delphi (P4D) is a set of free components that wrap up the Python DLL into Delphi and Lazarus (FPC). They let you easily execute Python scripts, create new Python modules and new Python types. You can create Python extensions as DLLs and much more like scripting. P4D provides different levels of functionality:
Low-level access to the python API
High-level bi-directional interaction with Python
Access to Python objects using Delphi custom variants (VarPyth.pas)
Wrapping of Delphi objects for use in python scripts using RTTI (WrapDelphi.pas)

This document provides an introduction to Twisted, an event-driven networking engine written in Python. It describes Twisted's key components, including the Reactor event loop, Deferred asynchronous programming abstraction, networking abstractions like Transport and Protocol, and high-level APIs for applications like HTTP, SMTP, FTP and more. It also discusses how to deploy Twisted applications using the twistd utility and provides additional resources for learning more about asynchronous programming and Twisted.
Objective-C is an object-oriented programming language that uses message passing to communicate between objects. Objects are represented as C structs with a pointer to their class. The class struct contains metadata about the class like its name, methods, and properties. Objective-C uses a dynamic runtime that allows objects to be modified at runtime via mechanisms like method swizzling and isa swizzling.
Most applications will need to communicate with other services or devices at some point, or at least save settings on the host computer. These concepts are covered in this module.
After introducing the generic concept behind devices, short examples show how to use files.
Afterwards, the module covers networking and its representation in Qt. In addition to providing classes for handling low level sockets, network managers simplify handling web service requests and responses like for the HTTP protocol. At the end, a short section explains the basics of different methods of parsing XML in Qt, including DOM trees, SAX, pull parsing and XQuery/XPath.
A section about internationalization demonstrates the process step-by-step, showing all required components to make your application multi-lingual.
The document discusses various techniques for improving Java application performance, including:
1. Using tools like JVisualVM and JConsole to analyze performance bottlenecks and determine where to focus optimization efforts.
2. Customizing the Java runtime environment through JVM options and garbage collection settings.
3. Following programming tips like using object scopes and final modifiers efficiently, choosing appropriate collection types, leveraging concurrency constructs properly.
4. Reading further on techniques involving Java I/O, NIO, locks, and lock-free programming.
Remote Procedure Call (RPC) allows a client to call a procedure in a remote server. A call creates a new thread on the server to service the request. The client blocks until the call is serviced. Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI) uses a similar approach, with server objects registered with a registry and clients obtaining proxy objects to invoke remote methods. Both use serialization to pass arguments between different address spaces. RPC introduces issues like partial failures and reduced performance compared to local calls due to network delays and concurrency.
Dennis Benkert & Matthias Lübken - Patterns in a containerized world? - code....AboutYouGmbH
This slide deck introduces several container patterns for building modular and scalable container-based applications. It defines the concept of a modular container and describes pods as a group of closely related containers. It then outlines some common composite patterns including sidecars, ambassadors, adapters, and chains. The document is a work in progress seeking feedback to improve the defined patterns.
Blocks is a cool concept and is very much needed for performance improvements and responsiveness. GCD helps run blocks effortlessly by scheduling on a desired queue, priority and lots more.
This document provides an introduction to Node.js. It discusses how Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model to optimize application throughput and scalability. It describes Node.js' event loop, which processes incoming events in a loop. The event loop consists of different phases that each have a queue of callbacks to execute. Asynchronous operations are handled via callbacks that get added to the appropriate queue to be executed. The document also provides an overview of key Node.js concepts like modules, packages, and JavaScript support.
Clockless design language - ilia greenblatchiportal
This document discusses a proposed clockless design language and flow based on extending Verilog. It describes adding constructs to Verilog like passive/active channels, wait, and release to express clockless hardware designs. The flow would compile such designs into asynchronous circuits using latches and arbiters without global clocks. Initial implementations show the approach can synthesize simple modules like UART successfully. Further work is needed to optimize and validate the flow on larger proving ground projects.
Inside the JVM - Follow the white rabbit! / Breizh JUGSylvain Wallez
Presentation given at the Rennes (FR) Java User Group in Feb 2019.
How do we go from your Java code to the CPU assembly that actually runs it? Using high level constructs has made us forget what happens behind the scenes, which is however key to write efficient code.
Starting from a few lines of Java, we explore the different layers that constribute to running your code: JRE, byte code, structure of the OpenJDK virtual machine, HotSpot, intrinsic methds, benchmarking.
An introductory presentation to these low-level concerns, based on the practical use case of optimizing 6 lines of code, so that hopefully you to want to explore further!
Here are the key points about classes and metaclasses in Objective-C:
- Every Objective-C class is an instance of another class called its metaclass. The metaclass allows the class to receive and respond to messages.
- The root class is called Class. All other classes are subclasses of Class.
- When you send a message to a class like [MyClass foo], it is actually sending the message to the metaclass of MyClass, not to MyClass itself. The metaclass handles class methods and behaviors.
- The isa pointer in the class structure points to the metaclass, not the superclass. This allows classes to behave like objects and receive messages.
- So in summary, classes are objects (instances
The document provides an introduction to the syntax and semantics of the Smalltalk programming language. It summarizes literals like numbers, strings, arrays, variables, assignments, returns, pseudo-variables, message expressions, block expressions, and conditionals and loops. The summary focuses on key concepts like objects communicating through message passing, different types of messages, variable scope, and blocks acting as anonymous methods.
Threads, Events, Signals/Slots provides an overview of multithreaded programming in QT including:
1) QT supports threading through the QThread class and provides thread safe APIs like QMutex. GUI operations are only allowed on the main thread.
2) QT uses an event-based model where events are processed in an event loop. Events can be used for intra-thread and inter-thread communication.
3) Signals and slots provide a type-safe mechanism for loose coupling between objects and allow one-to-many and many-to-one communication. They are mapped to events and processed in the receiving object's thread.
The document discusses concurrency programming in Java. It covers the scope of concurrency including multi-threading, multi-core, and distributed systems. It then discusses key aspects of concurrency programming like shared data/coordination for correctness and performance. It provides examples of thread-safety issues and how to address them using locks, volatile fields, and final fields to safely publish objects between threads.
The document discusses threads and concurrency in iOS development. It begins by introducing threads and their downsides, such as overhead and difficulty of management. It then introduces Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) and blocks as higher-level solutions for concurrency. GCD automates thread management and uses blocks to encapsulate units of work. The document also discusses using NSThread as a last resort for scenarios where GCD is not sufficient.

JVM Mechanics: When Does the JVM JIT & Deoptimize?Doug Hawkins
HotSpot promises to do the "right" thing for us by identifying our hot code and compiling "just-in-time", but how does HotSpot make those decisions?
This presentation aims to detail how HotSpot makes those decisions and how it corrects its mistakes through a series of demos that you run yourself.
Why scala is not my ideal language and what I can do with thisRuslan Shevchenko
- The document discusses some of the author's criticisms of Scala, including its use of implicit parameters to configure runtime behavior, and lack of good support for asynchronous programming.
- The author proposes some workarounds, like annotating imports to avoid implicit conflicts, and patching the compiler to add more information to Future exceptions. However, the ideal solution would be language changes or improvements to asynchronous abstractions like Async.
- Overall, the author argues that Scala is not ideal for some use cases like asynchronous programming, but provides some workarounds people can use in the meantime. The best solutions require changes to the language and standard library.
This document discusses evaluating venoactive drugs for treating venous disease. It notes that while efficacy was proven for some drugs, medical utility was deemed insufficient, leading to de-reimbursement. It advocates demonstrating long-term benefits to prevent complications to convince health authorities, while also showing relief of symptoms and improved quality of life to satisfy consumer patients who now pay out-of-pocket. Validated questionnaires could evaluate patients' satisfaction with treatment effects, safety, and willingness to purchase again. As patients become consumers, their satisfaction may need more emphasis in efficacy evaluation.

2) In the event of accidental death, beneficiaries receive P100,000 in cash benefits plus the funeral services.
3) Coverage is available for ages 10-65 and accidental death benefits are effective immediately upon enrollment.
This research studied the emotional impacts of digital media by collecting biometric data from 20 participants playing Guitar Hero. Sensors measured electroencephalography (EEG), eye tracking, galvanic skin response, head motion and facial expressions. The data was analyzed using structural equation modeling and network analysis to identify patterns in physical, emotional and cognitive attributes during easy and hard songs. Near real-time displays and time slice analyses provided operational models of brain states during tasks. The findings suggest these methods could be used to personalize media experiences, study emotion and learning, and improve affective tutoring systems.

Partnerships do not pay income tax directly. Instead, partnership income and expenses "flow through" to be reported on the tax returns of individual partners. Partnerships must file an informational tax return (Form 1065) annually to report income, deductions, gains and losses to the IRS. These items are then allocated to partners based on their ownership percentage and reported on their individual tax returns. Partners' basis in the partnership is adjusted annually for their share of income, losses, distributions, and other partnership transactions.

Using hypervisor and container technology to increase datacenter security pos...Black Duck by Synopsys
As presented by Tim Mackey, Senior Technical Evangelist - Black Duck Software, at LinuxCon/ContainerCon 2016:
Cyber threats consistently rank as a high priority for data center operators and their reliability teams. As increasingly sophisticated attacks mount, the risk associated with a zero-day attack is significant. Traditional responses include perimeter monitoring and anti-malware agents. Unfortunately, those techniques introduce performance and management challenges when used at large VM densities, and may not work well with containerized applications.
Fortunately, the Xen Project community has collaborated to create a solution which reduces the potential of success associated with rootkit attack vectors. When combined with recent advancements in processor capabilities, and secure development models for container deployment, it’s possible to both protect against and be proactively alerted to potential zero-day attacks. In this session, we’ll cover models to limit the scope of compromise should an attack be mounted against your infrastructure. Two attack vectors will be illustrated, and we’ll see how it’s possible to be proactively alerted to potential zero-day actions without requiring significant reconfiguration of your datacenter environment.
Technology elements explored include those from Black Duck, Bitdefender, Citrix, Intel and Guardicore.

How to write clean & testable code without losing your mindAndreas Czakaj
If you create software that is to be developed continuously over several years you'll need a sustainable approach to code quality.
In our early days of AEM development, however, we used to struggle with code that is rigid, hard to test and full of LOG.debug calls.
In this talk I will share some development best practices we have found that really work in actual AEM based software, e.g. to achieve 100% code coverage and provide high confidence in the code base.
Spoiler alert: no new libraries, frameworks or tools are required - once you know the ideas, plain old TDD and the S.O.L.I.D. principles of Clean Code will do the trick.

Building High-Performance Language Implementations With Low EffortStefan Marr
This talk shows how languages can be implemented as self-optimizing interpreters, and how Truffle or RPython go about to just-in-time compile these interpreters to efficient native code.
Programming languages are never perfect, so people start building domain-specific languages to be able to solve their problems more easily. However, custom languages are often slow, or take enormous amounts of effort to be made fast by building custom compilers or virtual machines.
With the notion of self-optimizing interpreters, researchers proposed a way to implement languages easily and generate a JIT compiler from a simple interpreter. We explore the idea and experiment with it on top of RPython (of PyPy fame) with its meta-tracing JIT compiler, as well as Truffle, the JVM framework of Oracle Labs for self-optimizing interpreters.
In this talk, we show how a simple interpreter can reach the same order of magnitude of performance as the highly optimizing JVM for Java. We discuss the implementation on top of RPython as well as on top of Java with Truffle so that you can start right away, independent of whether you prefer the Python or JVM ecosystem.
While our own experiments focus on SOM, a little Smalltalk variant to keep things simple, other people have used this approach to improve peek performance of JRuby, or build languages such as JavaScript, R, and Python 3.
Prototype-based Programming with JavaScriptlienhard
This are the slides from a 2 hour lecture introducing object-oriented prototype-based programming. It includes an introduction to JavaScript, delegation, constructors, and closures.
1) Back-in-time debuggers record an execution's complete history to provide more context than a standard call stack when debugging errors. However, this large amount of data can slow programs and overwhelm developers.
2) Flow-centric debugging visualizes object flows through an execution to help developers understand where objects originate. It maps object flows to the execution trace to aid root cause analysis.
3) The Compass debugger implements flow-centric debugging by tracking object flows during program execution and providing a frontend that surfaces this flow data to help developers navigate traces and pinpoint bugs.
This document discusses dynamic analysis techniques for understanding the runtime behavior of object-oriented programs. It describes various sources of runtime information, such as program output, resource usage, and internal instrumentation. Common tools for dynamic analysis include loggers, debuggers, and profilers. Reverse engineering techniques can combine static and dynamic views. Feature-based analysis aims to map features to source code by comparing execution traces.
This document summarizes Adrian Lienhard's PhD defense on dynamic object flow analysis. The defense addressed tracking object references and aliasing at runtime to visualize object flows between classes and features. The thesis proposed explicitly modeling object references using an object flow metamodel to capture activation contexts, object origins, and value transfers. This allows visualizing low-level object dependencies to support tasks like feature location, impact analysis, and test blueprint generation.
Rapid Prototyping Of Visualizations Using Mondrianlienhard
The document discusses rapid prototyping of visualizations using the Mondrian tool. It notes that requirements are often not fully known upfront, and prototyping can reveal new insights. It advocates for shortening development cycles by enabling changes to be applied and take effect immediately. Mondrian uses a declarative scripting language and dynamic container in Smalltalk to allow rapid prototyping through features like hot recompilation and debugging.
Tracking Objects To Detect Feature Dependencieslienhard
This document proposes tracking object flows at runtime to detect feature dependencies. It explains that object aliasing can cause dependencies that are not evident from object creation alone. The approach tracks how references to objects are transferred between features to identify dependencies. An example of detecting dependencies for an IRC client's "Receive Message" feature is provided. The approach is shown to more accurately detect dependencies than prior work.
This document describes an approach called Object Flow Virtual Machine (VM) that enables efficient back-in-time debugging by modeling object references and history as first-class objects. The VM uses garbage collection to delete irrelevant historical data, keeping memory usage low. Evaluation shows the approach retains important history with limited memory growth and reasonable overhead compared to no recording.
This document presents a technique for generating unit test blueprints from execution traces of existing code. The technique instruments a program to collect execution traces and object flow data. An analysis of the traces then extracts test scenarios to generate blueprints showing how to set up test fixtures, execute units under test, and verify expected behavior. An initial case study found the tool worked well at producing tests but had difficulties selecting execution units and initializing objects. The blueprints provide guidance for writing tests for legacy code even when it is not well understood.
The document proposes an object flow analysis technique to track how objects are passed between classes during program execution. It captures all references to an object, models the transfer of references through instantiation, field access, method calls and returns, and represents the flows using a graph with nodes for objects and relationships for passing references. This provides insight into how classes exchange objects and how objects propagate through the system.
Identifying Traits with Formal Concept Analysislienhard
The document discusses using formal concept analysis (FCA) to identify traits in object-oriented code. It presents an approach involving two main stages: (1) generating input for FCA by detecting duplications and unnecessary implementations in a class hierarchy, and (2) applying FCA separately to each class and trait to identify formal concepts and potential refactorings into traits. It illustrates the approach on the Stream hierarchy from the ST-80 libraries, finding many methods were implemented "too high" in the hierarchy or duplicated across subclasses. The goal is to automatically identify traits to improve code reuse without the complexity of multiple inheritance.
