Optimized Compiler for Intel~R Itanium~R Processor Family and Compiler Enhancements from NEC

摘要

NEC has released compilers for the Intel~R Itanium~R Processor family. NEC licensed the Intel~R Compilers and has added a performance analysis feature. This paper first describes the baseline compilers optimization features of Intel Compilers. Then the performance analysis function developed by NEC is explained in detail, including a discussion of its implementation and examples to show its effectiveness. Finally, the future direction of compiler development is stated.
