\noindent Our implementation ships as a library for IR manipulation, and we present a preliminary experimental study of our technique in TinyVM, a proof-of-concept virtual machine for run-time IR manipulation and compilation based on MCJIT. We then present a case study on the integration of our technique in McVM~\cite{chevalier2010mcvm}: we show the potential of our approach by enabling an aggressive specialization mechanism for the {\tt feval} construct - a source of bottlenecks in many MATLAB programs - that could not have been implemented using extant OSR techniques.
\paragraph{Structure of the paper.}
The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. In
Section~\ref{se:overview} \mysection\ref{se:overview} we present our OSR technique and in
Section~\ref{se:osr-llvm} \mysection\ref{se:osr-llvm} we outline its implementation and Application Program Interface (API) in LLVM.
Section~\ref{case-study} \mysection\ref{case-study} illustrates a case study in McVM. In
Section~\ref{se:experiments}, \mysection\ref{se:experiments}, we present the experimental study in TinyVM and discuss implications of inserting OSR points in a LLVM function, while in Section~\ref{se:related} addresses related work.
Section~\ref{se:conclusions} \mysection\ref{se:conclusions} concludes the paper and presents some ideas for future research directions.
