20100192138 | Methods And Apparatus For Local Memory Compaction - Methods, apparatus and computer software product for local memory compaction are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a processor in connection with a memory compaction module identifies inefficiencies in array references contained within in received source code, allocates a local array and maps the data from the inefficient array reference to the local array in a manner which improves the memory size requirements for storing and accessing the data. In another embodiment, a computer software product implementing a local memory compaction module is provided. In a further embodiment a computing apparatus is provided. The computing apparatus is configured to improve the efficiency of data storage in array references. This Abstract is provided for the sole purpose of complying with the Abstract requirement rules. This Abstract is submitted with the explicit understanding that it will not be used to interpret or to limit the scope or the meaning of the claims. | 07-29-2010 |
20100218196 | SYSTEM, METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PROGRAM OPTIMIZATION FOR MULTI-THREADED PROCESSOR ARCHITECTURES - Methods, apparatus and computer software product for source code optimization are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a first custom computing apparatus is used to optimize the execution of source code on a second computing apparatus. In this embodiment, the first custom computing apparatus contains a memory, a storage medium and at least one processor with at least one multi-stage execution unit. The second computing apparatus contains at least two multi-stage execution units that allow for parallel execution of tasks. The first custom computing apparatus optimizes the code for parallelism, locality of operations and contiguity of memory accesses on the second computing apparatus. This Abstract is provided for the sole purpose of complying with the Abstract requirement rules. This Abstract is submitted with the explicit understanding that it will not be used to interpret or to limit the scope or the meaning of the claims. | 08-26-2010 |
20100281160 | SYSTEM, APPARATUS AND METHODS TO IMPLEMENT HIGH-SPEED NETWORK ANALYZERS - Systems, apparatus and methods for the implementation of high-speed network analyzers are provided. A set of high-level specifications is used to define the behavior of the network analyzer emitted by a compiler. An optimized inline workflow to process regular expressions is presented without sacrificing the semantic capabilities of the processing engine. An optimized packet dispatcher implements a subset of the functions implemented by the network analyzer, providing a fast and slow path workflow used to accelerate specific processing units. Such dispatcher facility can also be used as a cache of policies, wherein if a policy is found, then packet manipulations associated with the policy can be quickly performed. An optimized method of generating DFA specifications for network signatures is also presented. The method accepts several optimization criteria, such as min-max allocations or optimal allocations based on the probability of occurrence of each signature input bit. | 11-04-2010 |
20140165047 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR DATA TRANSFER OPTIMIZATION - Methods, apparatus and computer software product for optimization of data transfer between two memories includes determining access to master data stored in one memory and/or to local data stored in another memory such that either or both of the size of total data transferred and the number of data transfers required to transfer the total data can be minimized. The master and/or local accesses are based on, at least in part, respective structures of the master and local data. | 06-12-2014 |
20150089485 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATION OF EVENT DRIVEN, TUPLE-SPACE BASED PROGRAMS - In a system for automatic generation of event-driven, tuple-space based programs from a sequential specification, a hierarchical mapping solution can target different runtimes relying on event-driven tasks (EDTs). The solution uses loop types to encode short, transitive relations among EDTs that can be evaluated efficiently at runtime. Specifically, permutable loops translate immediately into conservative point-to-point synchronizations of distance one. A runtime-agnostic which can be used to target the transformed code to different runtimes. | 03-26-2015 |
