When a compiler translates a procedure, it must lay out the procedure’s stack frame in a way that respects the calling convention. Many compilers respect the convention either by...
paper we describe d/streams, a language-independent abstraction with a small set of simple primitives for buffered I/O on distributed data-structures. We describe the interface an...
Abstract. We describe compiler and run-time optimisations for effective autoparallelisation of C++ programs on the Cell BE architecture. Auto-parallelisation is made easier by anno...
In this paper we present a method of describing microprocessors at different levels of temporal and data abstraction. We consider microprogrammed, pipelined and superscalar proces...
Improving the structure of code can help developers work with a software system more efficiently and more consistently. To aid developers in re-structuring the implementation of c...
