Abstract: Deferred constant pool generation is disclosed. Optimization processing is performed with respect to an intermediate representation of a source code. The optimized intermediate representation is used to generate a constant pool. In some embodiments, the source code comprises JavaScript, which is used to generate an LLVM or other intermediate representation (IR), which intermediate representation is optimized prior to a constant pool being generated.

Abstract: A device-independent intermediate representation of a source code is generated and stored, e.g., in a memory or other storage mechanism. The stored intermediate representation of the source code is used to generate a device-specific machine code corresponding to the source code. The stored intermediate representation may be updated, e.g., periodically, for example by obtaining an updated version of the source code and compiling the updated source code to generate an updated intermediate representation. The stored intermediate representation may be based on source code received from a device that is synchronized with which a compiling device that generates the device-specific machine code. In some cases, the stored intermediate representation may be used to generate for each of a plurality of devices a corresponding device-specific machine code.

Abstract: Optimized storage of function variables in compiled code is disclosed. It is determined that a variable of a first function is required to be available for use by a second function subsequent to return of the first function.

Abstract: A printed circuit board is fabricated so contacts for tight-pitch components are at an angle with respect to the bundles of glass fibers in the epoxy-glass printed circuit board such that adjacent component contacts do not contact the same bundle of glass fibers. This angle may be accomplished by manufacturing a printed circuit board panel with the glass fibers at an angle with respect to its edges. This angle may also be accomplished by placing parts on a printed circuit board panel that has a traditional X-Y orthogonal weave of glass fiber bundles at an angle with respect to the edges of the panel. This angle may also be accomplished by starting with a traditional panel that has an X-Y orthogonal weave, laying out parts on the panel along the X-Y weave, then placing components on the parts at an angle with respect to the edges of the parts.
