Abstract | The problem of modeling memory locality of applications to guide compiler optimizations in a systematic manner is an important unsolved problem, made even more significant with the advent of multi-core and many-core architectures. We describe an approach based on a novel source-level metric, called static reuse distance, to model the memory behavior of applications written in matlab. We use matlab as a representative language that lets end-users express their algorithms precisely, but at a relatively high level. Matlab's "high-level" characteristics allow the static analysis to focus on large objects, such as arrays, without losing accuracy due to processor-specific layout of scalar values in memory. We present an efficient algorithm to compute static reuse distances using an extended version of dependence graphs. Our approach differs from earlier similar attempts in three important aspects: it targets high-level programming systems characterized by heavy use of libraries; it works on full programs, instead of being confined to loops; and it integrates practical mechanisms to handle separately compiled procedures as well as pre-compiled library procedures that are only available in binary form. We study matlab code, taken from real programs, to demonstrate the effectiveness of our model. Finally, we present some applications of our approach to program transformations that are known to be important in matlab, but are expected to be relevant to other similar high level languages as well. |

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.
