\section{Case Study}
\label{se:case-study}
In this section we show how \osrkit\ can be used in a production VM to support 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(f,x,y)} computes {\tt f(x,y)}). This feature is
heavily used
by MATLAB programmers to parameterize in many classes numerical
computations. computations that benefit from having functions as parameters.
