\section{Case
Study: Optimizing \feval\ in McVM} Study}
\label{se:case-study}
In this section we show how \osrkit\ can be used in a production VM to implement aggressive optimizations for dynamic languages. We focus on MATLAB's \feval\ construct, a widely used built-in higher-order function that applies the function passed as first parameter to the remaining arguments (e.g., {\tt feval(g,x,y)} computes {\tt g(x,y)}). This feature is used in many classes of numerical computations that benefit from having functions as parameters.
