Optimizing execution of single-threaded programs on a multiprocessor managed by compilation

摘要

A method for optimizing execution of a single threaded program on a multi-core processor. The method includes dividing the single threaded program into a plurality of discretely executable components while compiling the single threaded program; identifying at least some of the plurality of discretely executable components for execution by an idle core within the multi-core processor; and enabling execution of the at least one of the plurality of discretely executable components on the idle core.
