Abstract
A method and apparatus for automatic second-order predictive commoning is provided by the present invention. During an analysis phase, the intermediate representation of a program code is analyzed to identify opportunities for second-order predictive commoning optimization. The analyzed information is used by the present invention for apply transformations to the program code, such that the number of memory access and the number of computations are reduced for loop iterations and performance of program code is improved.
