Level by level: making flow- and context-sensitive pointer analysis scalable for millions of lines of code
We present a practical and scalable method for flow- and contextsensitive (FSCS) pointer analysis for C programs. Our method analyzes the pointers in a program level by level in ...

Large program trace analysis and compression with ZDDs
Prior work has shown that reduced, ordered, binary decision diagrams (BDDs) can be a powerful tool for program trace analysis and visualization. Unfortunately, it can take hours o...

Decoupled software pipelining creates parallelization opportunities
Decoupled Software Pipelining (DSWP) is one approach to automatically extract threads from loops. It partitions loops into long-running threads that communicate in a pipelined man...

Automatic creation of tile size selection models
Tiling is a widely used loop transformation for exposing/exploiting parallelism and data locality. Effective use of tiling requires selection and tuning of the tile sizes. This is...

Automated just-in-time compiler tuning
Managed runtime systems, such as a Java virtual machine (JVM), are complex pieces of software with many interacting components. The Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler is at the core of t...

Linear scan register allocation on SSA form
The linear scan algorithm for register allocation provides a good register assignment with a low compilation overhead and is thus frequently used for just-in-time compilers. Altho...
