ABSTRACT:
Techniques for executing synchronized Java methods are disclosed. As such, the techniques can be implemented in a Java virtual machine to efficiently execute Java instructions. As will be appreciated, monitors (e.g., locks) associated with Java objects for which the synchronized method are being performed are accessed quickly. In other words, the monitors can be quickly released without having to repeat several time-consuming operations which have to be performed in conventional systems. This, in turn, reduces the number of operations that need to be performed to execute synchronized Java methods. As a result, the performance of virtual machines, especially those operating with limited resources, is improved.
