Understanding the dynamics of JavaScript
Sylvain Lebresne, Gregor Richards, Johan Östlund, Tobias Wrigstad, Jan Vítek · 2009
We report on preliminary results on understanding the nature of JavaScript programs. Our investigation is motivated by the goal of developing a type system for JavaScript programs. As a prelude, we decide to gain a better understanding of the dynamic behaviour of JavaScript programs. In particular we are interested in understanding how dynamic JavaScript programs are in the real world.
