CONCURRENT ACCESSES OF DYNAMICALLY TYPED OBJECT DATA

A method and an apparatus for providing a flat array type in an object model for dynamically typed programs are described. Whether an array object is of a flat array type can be dynamically tracked for a dynamic language based program. Array elements of an array object of the flat array type may be stored in an inline storage within an object cell of the array object. The inline storage may be limited by available memory space between adjacent object cells. The flat array type of an array object may be detected based on whether the inline storage has sufficient memory space to store elements of the array. An array object of the flay array type may allow array elements of the array object to be accessed within a object cell without additional memory loading via a pointer stored in the object cell.
