Echo Instructions have recently been introduced to allow embedded processors to provide runtime decompression of LZ77-compressed programs at a minimal hardware cost compared to oth...
The traditional target machine of a parallelizing compiler can execute code sections either serially or in parallel. In contrast, targeting the generated code to a speculative para...
Compilation has a long history of translating a programmer's human-readable code into machine instructions designed to make good use of a specific target computer. In this pa...
