Abstract
A method and system for detecting and eliminating interferences between resources in SSA-form &phgr;-instructions so that an optimizing compiler can translate optimized SSA-form code back to non-SSA-form code. The method traverses the control flow graph associated with an SSA-form program or routine in order to analyze each &phgr;-instruction within the SSA-form program or routine. All possible pairs of resources associated with each &phgr;-instruction are analyzed for interference. Once all interferences have been detected, the method inserts copy instructions into the SSA-form intermediate-level code program or routine in order to eliminate the interferences.
