    • UR-04 Graphics powered Java Virtual Machine
      by Jonathan Lashgari (Wheeler High)
      Major: Other Advisor: Dr. Dan Lo
      Today's programs have not kept up with the pace of advancement in computer hardware. Graphics processing units, or GPUs, have long been available to use for general purpose computations, yet the utilization of such hardware is not wide spread. This project aims to enhance Java runtime performance by using the GPU and just-in-time compilation mechanism. This will ease the transition of creating more efficient and capable programs by transparently utilizing a computer's computational power.
