Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system for memory optimization by partitioning extraneous information from executable virtual machine code or interpreted code. The extraneous information may be stored separately, or accessed from the original code if needed for debugging or servicing the code in the field. This approach optimizes memory usage by reducing memory footprint while maintaining accessibility of the non-executable information for debugging and other processes necessary for servicing code in the field.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for optimizing memory usage associated with duplicate string objects in a Java virtual machine. The method comprises scanning a heap of the Java virtual machine at the end of the start-up process of the virtual machine to identify duplicate strings associated with the virtual machine, storing the identified strings in a string cache file, and determining whether a new string that needs to be created during start-up already exists in the string cache file. The duplicate strings are added to an interned strings table. A reference to a duplicate string is returned if a string to be created is already in the string cache file.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for formulating structure descriptions from data. In some embodiments, data arrives with an unknown format. The data may be ad hoc data that is considered semi-structured. Disclosed embodiments analyze chunks of the data to determine tokens. Tokens are analyzed to identify base types and compound types such as structs, unions, and arrays. Descriptions are generated and undergo scoring and rewriting for optimization. The generated descriptions may be fed to a data description language such as Processing Ad Hoc Data System (PADS) and compiled for processing the raw data. In some embodiments, the raw data is parsed, printed, or reformatted using the generated descriptions.

Abstract: In typical Java and other interpreted programming language environments, the code is stored in ROM in a semi-processed state, .class files containing byte codes. When the device is turned on, a virtual machine resolves references and links the .class file in RAM to permit desired applications to be run. In the invention, the .class files are further pre-processed to select the data which will not change or require updating. This data is packaged into memory image files containing internal data pre-linking this data. The memory image files are stored in ROM and are accessible from ROM by the virtual machine at runtime. Only elements that will be updated, such as the objects themselves, must be instantiated in RAM at runtime. This reduces the amount of RAM needed to run the application. In an environment with memory constraints, the reduction in RAM requirements permits more RAM to be made available for application use.
