| Abstract | In 1987 we were working at the University of Wisconsin-Madison with Jim Smith, J. T. Hsieh, Koujuch Liou and Andrew Pleszkun on PIPE [4], an unorthodox 'decoupled access-execute processor.' The driving innovation of PIPE was the separation of instructions dealing with memory through a separate and independent instruction stream racing ahead, initiating load and store instructions in-order, synchronized only with other instructions through architectural queues. The queues eliminated the need for allocating and managing temporary registers. While the problems of register allocation and instruction scheduling were traditionally treated independently, the genesis of this paper came while developing an optimizing compiler for PIPE, with the insight that in a conventional architecture these two closely related problems have conflicting goals that could be played off against each other to maximize benefit: Code scheduling uses as many temporary registers as possible to achieve a higher level of instruction-level parallelism (ILP), while register allocation minimizes the use of temporary registers so that more data items could be allocated to the available registers. As we gained more experience in optimizing for parallel programs, we came to understand that such conflicting goals were commonplace in the trade-off between parallelism and locality [2]. This work introduced the concept of the DAG-driven register allocation. We defined two terms, width and height of a DAG, in the context of code scheduling. The width of a DAG is the maximal number of mutually independent nodes requiring a destination (i.e. target) register and the height of a DAG is the length of its critical path. The shape of the DAG can be changed due to register allocation. For example, while the width can be reduced by reusing registers, the height could be increased. The purpose of DAG-driven register allocation is to minimize the height while keeping the width smaller than the number of available registers. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
