ANALYZING POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF VECTORIZATION

摘要

Embodiments of computer-implemented methods, systems, computing devices, and computer-readable media (transitory and non-transitory) are described herein for analyzing execution of a plurality of executable instructions and, based on the analysis, providing an indication of a benefit to be obtained by vectorization of at least a subset of the plurality of executable instructions. In various embodiments, the analysis may include identification of the subset of the plurality of executable instructions suitable for conversion to one or more single-instruction multiple-data (“SIMD”) instructions.
