Fourth Workshop on Architectural and Microarchitectural Support for Binary Translation, San Jose, US
Long employed by industry, large scale use of binary translation and on-the-fly code generation is becoming pervasive both as an enabler for virtualization, processor migration and also as processor implementation technology. The emergence and expected growth of just-in-time compilation, virtualisation and Web 2.0 scripting languages brings a need for efficient execution of this class of applications.
The availability of multiple execution threads brings new challenges and opportunities, as existing binaries need to be transformed to benefit from multiple processors, and extra processing resources enable continuous optimizations and translation.
The event will bring together researchers and practitioners with the aim of stimulating the exchange of ideas and experiences on the potential and limits of architectural and micro-architectural support for binary translation.For further information, please visit: http://amas-bt.cs.virginia.edu/(opens in new window)
