In a method of executing a program on an interpreted bytecode language, a plurality of interpreted bytecode modules (each having an associated name) is loaded. A pointer is directed from each method entry to a different interpreted bytecode module. A native code module library is loaded and includes a native code module (also having an associated name) that implements a function corresponding to an interpreted bytecode module. When the name of an interpreted bytecode module corresponds to the name of a native code module, the pointer directed to the interpreted bytecode module is redirected to the corresponding native code module. Each interpreted bytecode module and native code module pointed to by the each method entry in the method table is executed according to an application-controlled order of execution.

System for overriding interpreted byte-code with native code

An adaptive garbage collection scheduler ( ) in an interactive system ( ) to schedule invocation of a mark and sweep garbage collection process. The adaptive garbage collection scheduler ( ) determines a user impact index (I), corresponding to the effect of the garbage collection process on a user ( ), and a collection urgency index (U), corresponding to how urgently the garbage collection process needs to be run. The garbage collection process is invoked by the adaptive garbage collection scheduler ( ) when the collection urgency index (U) is greater than the user impact index (I).
