Gaining Software Reliability
and Efficiency
"Why Your Next CPU Should
Provide Hardware Support
David S. Hardin
Tuesday, October 2, 2001, 6:30p.m. The ample transistor budgets of modern silicon fabrication present CPU designers with a number of options as to how best to spend their budgets. A design alternative is to devote silicon resources to directly support current software development practice, such as multitasking and threading, compilation to virtual machine code, object-oriented method dispatch and field access, safe mobile code execution, etc. In this talk, we will describe one such CPU design, the aJile Systems aJ-100, and show how it efficiently supports modern software engineering practice, including hardware support for objects, tasks/threads, and Java bytecode execution, as well as multiple processes brickwalled in space and time. We will particularly demonstrate how such an architecture provides advantages for the Java and Ada95 developer, through the use of JGNAT from ACT. This presentation is a dinner meeting co-hosted
by several Twin Cities computer oriented organizations. All conference
registrants receive a complementary ticket to the dinner and presentation.
Additional tickets are $30 prior to 15 Sept 2001 and $40 (space available)
thereafter. Your ticket also gains you admission to the exhibits for SIGAda
2001. You may purchase your ticket online through the SIGAda 2001 conference
registration site, or may see a representative from any of the co-hosting
organizations.
