| Course work |
| |
Course work will consist
of three major components: reading and discussing papers in
class, presenting one or two papers and leading the
discussion, and working on a programming project.
When it's your turn to present a paper, I want you
to prepare a 20 minute talk describing the work. I'll tell you
more about what I expect from these talks, but the basic idea is
to describe the work and then get the discussion started. You
should include a short list of discussion questions or issues at
the end of the talk.
When it's not your turn to present, read the paper
and write a short critique, including: (a) one-paragraph overview
of the main ideas, (b) paragraph describing the best things about
the paper, and (c) paragraph describing the problems or issues
with the paper

| Description |
| |
This course covers a variety of topics in
the implementation of modern programming languages,
including: virtual machines, dynamic and just-in-time
compilers, binary translators, object-oriented languages
and run-time systems. Students will read a variety of
research papers in these areas, from important landmark
papers to recent work and new frontiers. The format of the
class will include some lecture, but will have a
substantial discussion component. Outside work will focus
on programming projects using real virtual machines or
binary translators -- students will either choose from a
list of predefined projects, or optionally define their
own project.
