Meetesh Kalpesh Mehta
Hello there! I am a research scholar at IIT Bombay, working in the field of compilers and programming languages. I have experience on working with real world JIT compilers. In addition to my research, I am passionate about coding in React and have utilized it in creating websites, such as this one. Beyond my computer science pursuits, I enjoy tinkering with Raspberry Pi's and Arduinos during my free time.
PhD @ IIT Bombay, completed one year
I am working on static analysis of JavaScript Programs.

PhD Seminar Report
It was an interesting sem, learnt about a lot about type systems and had fun comparing different language implementations.
Highlights
Working with Dr. Manas Thakur and the CompL group has been the most rewarding and fulfilling part of my life :) I am proud of.
[OOPSLA 2023] Reusing Just-in-Time Compiled Code
Most code is executed more than once. If not entire programs then libraries remain unchanged from one run to the next. Just-in-time compilers expend considerable effort gathering insights about code they compiled many times, and often end up generating the same binary over and over again. We explore how to reuse compiled code across runs of different programs to reduce warm-up costs of dynamic languages. We propose to use speculative contextual dispatch to select versions of functions from an off-line curated code repository. That repository is a persistent database of previously compiled functions indexed by the context under which they were compiled. The repository is curated to remove redundant code and to optimize dispatch. We assess practicality by extending Ř, a compiler for the R language, and evaluating its performance. Our results suggest that the approach improves warmup times while preserving peak performance.
