Efficiently implementing the copy semantics of MATLAB's arrays in JavaScript
Vincent Foley-Bourgon, Laurie Jane Hendren · 2016
Compiling MATLAB---a dynamic, array-based language---to JavaScript is an attractive proposal: the output code can be deployed on a platform used by billions and can leverage the countless hours that have gone into making JavaScript JIT engines fast. But before that can happen, the original MATLAB code must be properly translated, making sure to bridge the semantic gaps of the two languages.
