In this paper we are examining the impact of modern programming language abstractions on total cost of ownership (TCO) of a financial computing operation. Our analysis is based on static and dynamic analysis of example financial software, based on our loopflow graph (LFG) concept and our custom dynamic hotspot tool called MaxSpot. Our results show that, if the required throughput of an application is high enough, then operational expenditure is minimized by minimizing runtime and not programming effort.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
