摘要： A method of optimizing assembly code of a VLIW processor (10) or other processor that uses multiple-instruction words (20), each of which comprise instructions to be executed on different functional units (11d and 11e) of the processor (10). The instruction words (20) are modified in accordance with one or more code optimization techniques (FIG. 6). Typically, the modifications tend to result in fewer cycle-to-cycle bit changes in the machine code, which results in reduced power consumption.

摘要： Technologies for discontinuous execution include a compiler computing device and one or more target computing devices. The compiler computing device converts a computer program into a sequence of atomic transactions and coalesces the transactions to generate additional sequences of transactions. The compiler computing device generates an executable program including two or more sequences of transactions having different granularity. A target computing device selects an active sequence of transactions from the executable program based on the granularity of the sequence and a confidence level. The confidence level is indicative of available energy produced by an energy harvesting unit of the target computing device. The target computing device increases the confidence level in response to successfully committing transactions from the active sequence of transactions into non-volatile memory. In response to a power failure, the target computing device resets the confidence level and resumes executing the transactions. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要： Embodiments are described for a method for compiling instruction code for execution in a processor having a number of functional units by determining a thermal constraint of the processor, and defining instruction words comprising both real instructions and one or more no operation (NOP) instructions to be executed by the functional units within a single clock cycle, wherein a number of NOP instructions executed over a number of consecutive clock cycles is configured to prevent exceeding the thermal constraint during execution of the instruction code.

摘要： In the various aspects, a virtual machine operating at the machine layer may use power consumption models to partition object code into portions, identify the relative power efficiencies of the mobile device processors for the various code portions, and route the code portions to the mobile device processors that can perform the operations using the least amount of energy. A dynamic binary translator process may translate the object code portions into an instruction set language supported by the hardware component identified as being preferred. The code portions may be executed and the amount of power consumed may be measured, with the measurements used to generate and/or update performance and power consumption models.

摘要： A system, method, and computer program product are provided for compiling a computer program comprising arithmetic operations having different requirements with respect to numeric dynamic range, numeric resolution, or any combination thereof. The method comprises generating a transformed graph representation of the computer program by applying propagation rules that provide for relaxed numeric requirements, where applicable, and generating output code based on the transformed graph representation. Relaxing numeric requirements, such as dynamic range and resolution requirements, may advantageously lower power consumption during execution of the computer program.
