A system includes a virtual source code specification corresponding to no particular platform and at least one transform mechanism corresponding to a particular platform and configured to be applied to the virtual source code specification to generate a source code corresponding to the particular platform.

Cross-platform virtual machine and method

A method, system, and computer program product for automatic parsing of a markup language (ML) document are provided. The method includes receiving a request from an ML producer to write an ML document including ML data in a text format. The method also includes passing the ML data in the text format to an ML parser, where the ML parser translates the ML data in the text format into a parsed binary format. The method additionally includes writing the ML data in the text format as a text format ML document to a data storage device, and writing the ML data in the parsed binary format as a parsed binary format ML document to the data storage device.

A system and method for reorganizing source code using frequency based instruction loop replication are provided. Code is reorganized based on the frequency of execution of blocks of the code so as to favor frequently executed blocks of code over rarely executed code with regard to subsequent optimizations. Frequently executed blocks of instructions are maintained within loop/switch statements and rarely executed blocks of instructions are removed from the loop/switch statements. The rarely executed blocks of instructions may be replicated after the loop/switch statement with a reference back to the loop/switch statement. In this way, when subsequent loop/switch statement optimizations are applied, the frequently executed blocks of instructions within the loop are more likely to benefit from such optimizations since the negative influence of the rarely executed blocks of instructions has been removed.
