JavaScript is nowadays the lingua franca of web browsers. This programming language is not only the main tool that developers have to implement the client side of web applications, but it is also the target of frameworks such as Google Web Toolkit. Given this importance, it is fundamental that JavaScript programs can be executed efficiently. Just-in-time (JIT) compilation is one of the keys to ...

The Covid-19 pandemic and other recent disruptions in the early 2020s led to sections business press blaming just-in-time (JIT) practices for operational failings. Consequently, there are calls moving away from JIT toward holding more inventory as preparation against future disruptions, which is referred just-in-case. academic community also divided. Some scholars argue that not resilient, whil...

JavaScript has become one of the most popular programming languages. It powers various popular websites and has become the de facto web assembly language. The efficiency of the JavaScript engines become crucial to the success of most web applications. Most modern JavaScript engines use just-in-time (JIT) compilation to translate parts of JavaScript code into efficient machine code at runtime. D...

Dynamically typed programming languages such as JavaScript and Python defer type checking to run time. In order to maximize performance, dynamic language VM implementations must attempt to eliminate redundant dynamic type checks. However, type inference analyses are often costly and involve tradeoffs between compilation time and resulting precision. This has lead to the creation of increasingly...

OBJECTIVE To determine if automated screening and just in time delivery of testing and referral materials at the point of care promotes universal screening referral rates for maternal depression. METHODS The Child Health Improvement through Computer Automation (CHICA) system is a decision support and electronic medical record system used in our pediatric clinics. All families of patients up t...

The JIT system and its operational techniques have shown noticeable advantages when applied in an ideal factory. The steadiness of demand and production times and the reduction of setup times represent the key factor necessary in order to correctly execute JIT. Ideal environments are designed to work with smooth and stable demand patterns, constant and balanced processing times, small lot sizes...

When purchased components for an assembly manufacturing operation are replenished Just-In-Time the investment in inventory holding of these components is eliminated, but usually with increased fixed reorder cost. It is therefore important in the pursuit of high returns on inventory investment to know for which components JIT replenishment is an optimal policy. In this paper we describe two deci...

OpenJIT is an open-ended, reflective JIT compiler framework for Java being researched and developed in a joint project by Tokyo Inst. Tech. and Fujitsu Ltd. Although in general self-descriptive systems have been studied in various contexts such as reflection and interpreter/compiler bootstrapping, OpenJIT is a first system we know to date that offers a stable, full-fledged Java JIT compiler tha...

OBJECTIVES To determine the likely enrolment rate of eligible participants into a randomised controlled trial (RCT) in which a within-cast intermittent pneumatic compression device using Jet Impulse Technology (IPC/JIT) is 1 of 3 possible interventions in a RCT for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in the clinical setting of isolated lower limb cast immobilisation. DESIGN A prosp...
