Compiler Optimization

Course description:
This course introduces students to modern techniques in efficient implementation of programming languages. Modern processors and systems are designed based on the assumption that a compiler will be able to effectively exploit architectural resources. This course will examine in detail techniques to exploit instruction level parallelism, memory hierarchy and higher level parallelism. It will examine classic static analysis approaches to these problems and introduce newer feedback directed and dynamic approaches to optimisation.

Course topics:
Scalar Optimisation - Redundant Expressions. Scalar Optimisation - Dataflow Framework and SSA. Code Generation. Instruction Scheduling. Register Allocation. Dependence Analysis. Program Transformations. Vectorisation. Parallelisation. Adaptive and Profile Directed Compilation. Iterative + Dynamic Compilation. Dynamic Compilation. Machine Learning based Compilation.
