[Cbe-oss-dev] FYI: Diploma Thesis Java on Cell/B.E.

[Georg Sorst]

Hey list,

after a long time I finally got around to publishing my diploma thesis.
It is about researching the options on how to enable a JVM to make use
of the heterogeneous architecture of the Cell/B.E. Processor. The
prototype implementation is based on the free CACAO VM and parts of it
are included in the paper.

The thesis can be found at
http://vergiss-blackjack.de/diploma-thesis_georg-sorst_java-on-cell.pdf
. I would like to acknowledge IBM for supporting this work and
especially Markus Deuling who was an excellent mentor to me just like my
supervising professor Richard Reuter from the FH Aachen.

I would love to hear feedback from the people on this list since most of
the topics in my thesis were new to me at the time of writing so I am
sure there is a lot that could have been done more elegant of efficient.
Also, if anyone has questions or would like to discuss some
points of this thesis I would love to help. If you reply to this please
CC me since I am not subscribed to the list.


Thanks and best regards
Georg
