Abstract

We introduce an approach to find upper bounds of heap space for Java Card applets. Our approach analyzes and transforms bytecodes of Java Card applets into equivalent programs in a language that already has a type system for finding the sharp upper bounds of resource use. We then point out a linear-time algorithm to compute the maximum heap units that may be allocated during the lifetime of Java Card applets. We also have implemented a prototype tool and tested it on several examples and the results are good.
