Academic Publications

This page describes various presentations and publications related to the Graal compiler and Truffle that were published by Oracle Labs and its academic collaborators.

Truffle

GraalVM provides the Truffle framework for implementing a managed language in Java, improving language performance while enabling integration with other Truffle languages and providing tooling support – all of that by just implementing an abstract syntax tree (AST) interpreter in Java. Truffle applies AST specialization during interpretation, which enables partial evaluation to create highly optimized native code without the need to write a compiler specifically for a language. The Java VM contributes high-performance garbage collection, threads, and parallelism support.

Oracle Labs and external research groups have implemented a variety of programming languages on top of Truffle, including JavaScript, Python, Ruby, R, Smalltalk, and others. Several of them already exceed the best implementation of that language that existed before.

We recommend watching a presentation on Dynamic Metacompilation with Truffle by Christian Humer, and checking academic publications on Truffle, of your interest, listed on this page. You can also find the extensive Truffle documentation on the website.

Graal Compiler

The Graal compiler is an optimizing dynamic compiler written in Java. Because it is highly configurable and extensible, it delivers excellent peak performance on many benchmarks for a diverse set of managed languages including Java and JavaScript. This brings compiler research to a new level: researchers can evaluate new compiler optimizations immediately on many languages. If you are a language implementer who is curious how modern VMs like the Java HotSpot VM optimizes your code, you can find answers to that in the presentation by Doug Simon Looking at the GraalVM compiler.

The presentation covers the following topics:

• How to build a GraalVM distribution from the sources
• Ways the compiler uses Java language features to simplify the development: annotations, unit tests, and benchmarks for individual compiler optimizations
• What main classes one should look at the GraalVM project
• Compilation wrappers and so on

Find below also the academic publications on the compiler of your interest, or see the Graal compiler documentation on the website.
