}Register allocation is a mandatory task for almost every compiler and consumes a significant portion of compile time. In a just-in-time compiler, compile time is a particular issue because compilation happens during program execution and contributes to the overall application run time. Parallelization can help here. We developed a theoretical model for parallel register allocation and show that it can be used in practice without a negative impact on the quality of the allocation result. Doing… CONTINUE READING
