Device, system, and method of computer program optimization. For example, an apparatus to analyze a plurality of versions of computer program includes: a code analyzer to determine one or more code differences between first and second versions of the computer program, based on at least one optimization log associated with at least one of the first and second versions of the computer program.

Device, system, and method of computer program optimization

An embodiment of the present invention is directed to a method for compiling, storing, and interpreting, as often as needed, a representation of any MPI datatype, including the steps of compiling a tree representation of an MPI datatype into a compact, linear data gather scatter program (DGSP) wherein the DGSP is of a form general enough to encode an arbitrarily complex datatype, registering the compact linear DGSP with a communications subsystem for later interpretation by the subsystem for at least one of sends, receives, packs and unpacks, creating a registered DGSP, and interpreting the registered DGSP. In one embodiment of the present invention, the form of the DGSP uses a single generalized representation. In another embodiment the single generalized representation covers any of the arbitrarily complex datatype patterns that can arise in this context. In yet another embodiment, the single generalized representation provides that any datatype that can be constructed using an application programming interface (API) in MPI can be converted into the form.
