Understanding how to squeeze performance from very long instruction word (VLIW) systems can be as much about strategy as hardware. This book explains compiler-driven techniques that unlock fine‑grained parallelism and turn complex architectures into practical, high‑throughput machines.
Readers will discover methods to map serial code to VLIW pipelines, balancing local and global scheduling, region transformations, and software pipelining. The discussion covers trace scheduling, percolation scheduling, region scheduling, and the evolution of VLIW ideas from horizontal microcode to modern compilers.
Ideal for readers of computer architecture, compiler design, and parallel processing who want to understand how to generate efficient code for VLIW machines.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architectures, a revolutionary approach to computer design that emerged in the 1970s and 1980s. The author takes a deep dive into the history of this innovative technology, tracing its roots back to earlier research on horizontal microengines. The book explores the various techniques for extracting and exploiting fine-grain parallelism from serial programs, including trace scheduling, percolation scheduling, and region scheduling, each of which offers unique advantages and challenges. The author meticulously examines the intricate workings of these compaction algorithms, illustrating their potential to achieve significant speedups by exploiting the inherent parallelism within programs. The book also explores the crucial concept of software pipelining, a technique that further enhances performance by overlapping successive iterations of loops. Through detailed analysis and insightful examples, the book illuminates the complex interplay between hardware and software in the realm of VLIW architectures, offering a comprehensive understanding of this groundbreaking field. This book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking a deep understanding of VLIW architectures and their impact on the evolution of computer design. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
