Compiling for Speculative Architectures
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...

Inter-array Data Regrouping
Abstract. As the speed gap between CPU and memory widens, memory hierarchy has become the performance bottleneck for most applications because of both the high latency and low band...

A Linear Algebra Formulation for Optimising Replication in Data Parallel Programs
In this paper, we present an efficient technique for optimising data replication under the data parallel programming model. We propose a precise mathematical representation for da...

An Empirical Study of Function Pointers Using SPEC Benchmarks
Since the C language imposes little restriction on the use of function pointers, the task of call graph construction for a C program is far more di cult than what the algorithms d...

Instruction Scheduling in the Presence of Java's Runtime Exceptions
One of the challenges present to a Java compiler is Java’s frequent use of runtime exceptions. These exceptions affect performance directly by requiring explicit checks, as wel...
