Abstract
Apparatus, methods, systems and computer program products are disclosed to provide improved optimizations of single-basic-block-loops. These optimizations include improved scheduling of blocking instructions for pipelined computers and improved scheduling and allocation of resources (such as registers) that cannot be spilled to memory. Scheduling of blocking instructions is improved by pre-allocating space in the scheduling reservation table. Improved scheduling and allocation of non-spillable resources results from converting the resource constraint into a data dependency constraint.
