This paper is truly interesting. People have been fighting the performance cost between exceptions and returning error codes for years, So the paper just designs an instruction level mapping of generating code as if exceptions would be returning error codes.
The approach is somewhat simple and really not that clever, yet the outcome looks impressive enough. This surprises me as it's just a mechanism of what people have been arguing over years.

Nicely done!
