Short-Circuit Dispatch: Accelerating Virtual Machine Interpreters on Embedded Processors

Interpreters are widely used to implement high-level language virtual machines (VMs), especially on resource-constrained embedded platforms. Many scripting languages employ interpreter-based VMs for their advantages over native code compilers, such as portability, smaller resource footprint, and com...
