Code generation for efficient query processing in managed runtimes
Summary: Code-generation-based query compilation in managed runtimes accelerates in-memory object queries under language-integrated query (C#/LINQ), exploring multiple strategies. Demonstrates sizable speedups over LINQ and argues for DB-inspired techniques in managed runtimes to enable transparent, single-language in-memory data processing.
