Abstract

We describe the problems associated with the creation of high performance code for mathematical computations. We discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using a high level language like MATLAB and then propose partial evaluation as a way of lessening the disadvantages at little cost. We then go on to describe the design of a partial evaluator for MATLAB and present results showing what performance increases can be achieved and the circumstances in which partial evaluation can provide these.
