08441 Abstracts Collection – Emerging Uses and Paradigms for Dynamic Binary Translation

Authors: Bruce R. Childers, Jack Davidson, Koen De Brosschere, and Mary Lou Soffa


Abstract
From 26.10. to 31.10.2008, the Dagstuhl Seminar 08441 ``Emerging Uses and Paradigms for Dynamic Binary Translation '' was held in Schloss Dagstuhl~--~Leibniz Center for Informatics. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available.

Abstract
Software designers and developers face many problems in designing, building, deploying, and maintaining cutting-edge software applications–reliability,security,performance,power,legacy code,use of multi-core platforms,and maintenance are just a few of the issues that must be considered. Many of these issues are fundamental parts of the grand challenges in computer science such as reliability and security.

Combining Processor Virtualization and Split Compilation for Heterogeneous Multicore Embedded Systems

Authors: Erven Rohou


Abstract
Complex embedded systems have always been heterogeneous multicore systems. Because of the tight constraints on power, performance and cost, this situation is not likely to change any time soon. As a result, the software environments required to program those systems have become very complex too. We propose to apply instruction set virtualization and just-in-time compilation techniques to program heterogeneous multicore embedded systems, with several additional requirements: * the environment must be able to compile legacy C/C++ code to a target independent intermediate representation; * the just-in-time (JIT) compiler must generate high performance code; * the technology must be able to program the whole system, not just the host processor. Advantages that derive from such an environment include, among others, much simpler software engineering, reduced maintenance costs, reduced legacy code problems... It also goes beyond mere binary compatibility by providing a better exploitation of the hardware platform. We also propose to combine processor virtualization with split compilation to improve the performance of the JIT compiler. Taking advantage of the two-step compilation process, we want to make it possible to run very aggressive optimizations online, even on a very constraint system.
