A machine_independent abstract program representation is presented that is twice as compact as machine code for a CISC processor. It forms the basis of an implementation, in which ...
In this paper, we describe the program structure tree (PST), a hierarchical representation of program structure based on single entry single exit (SESE) regions of the control flo...
: Object-oriented programs are difficult to optimize because they execute many dynamically-dispatched calls. These calls cannot easily be eliminated because the compiler does not k...
Integer division remains expensive on today's processors as the cost of integer multiplication declines. We present code sequences for division by arbitrary nonzero integer c...
As microprocessor speeds increase, memory bandwidth is increasing y the performance bottleneck for microprocessors. This has occurred because innovation and technological improvem...
