Abstract | Traditional list schedulers order instructions based on an optimistic estimate of the load latency imposed by the hardware and therefore cannot respond to variations in memory latency caused by cache hits and misses on non-blocking architectures. In contrast, balanced scheduling schedules instructions based on an estimate of the amount of instruction-level parallelism in the program. By scheduling independent instructions behind loads based on what the program can provide, rather than what the implementation stipulates in the best case (i.e., a cache hit), balanced scheduling can hide variations in memory latencies more effectively.Since its success depends on the amount of instruction-level parallelism in the code, balanced scheduling should perform even better when more parallelism is available. In this study, we combine balanced scheduling with three compiler optimizations that increase instruction-level parallelism: loop unrolling, trace scheduling and cache locality analysis. Using code generated for the DEC Alpha by the Multiflow compiler, we simulated a non-blocking processor architecture that closely models the Alpha 21164. Our results show that balanced scheduling benefits from all three optimizations, producing average speedups that range from 1.15 to 1.40, across the optimizations. More importantly, because of its ability to tolerate variations in load interlocks, it improves its advantage over traditional scheduling. Without the optimizations, balanced scheduled code is, on average, 1.05 times faster than that generated by a traditional scheduler; with them, its lead increases to 1.18. |

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.
