Abstract
Systems and methods are described for rapid parameter passing. A method includes enumerating a set of parameters; providing an indication in a first set of arrays of whether to acquire from first program portion information associated with one or more parameters of the set of parameters, in response to a second program portion issuing a query t a third program portion for identifying the one or more parameters; populating a second et of arrays in an image of the first set of arrays with the information received from the first program portion associated with the one or more parameters, in response to a request from the second program portion; evaluating the third program portion by utilizing the information associated with the one or more parameters from the second set of arrays to derive an output from the third program portion for return to the second program portion; and conveying the output second program portion to the first program portion.
